Escape Jakarta for Bogor gardens, village life, rice fields, and a rainforest hike to refreshing Cikaracak Waterfall.

“Was one of the best activities we have done in Java, the gardens are beautiful and our guide Vincent was very knowledgeable. We were lucky to have a trainee guide too, Tio, who was also great. Our driver Mr Gunawan, was fantastic, the traffic was managed by him very well, and the drive to the start of the hike was an experience in itself. Would recommend walking shoes or boots and you will get wet at least up to your knees with three rivers to cross, was well worth the hike, take a change of shoes! Restaurant was very good!”

Review of a gentle Mount Merapi trek from Yogyakarta, with village life, plant gardens, forest paths, local snacks, and private transport.
