Good mix of the obvious things and a few places we'd never have found. Hotels were clean and central, which saved a lot of time.

Well paced over 6 days with enough free time to not feel herded. The lead was calm and knew when to slow the group down. Recommended.

Yogyakarta done well. The itinerary had room to breathe. Accommodation was a notch better than the price suggested. The team read the group well and adjusted without making a thing of it.
