Private 10-hour Semarang day trip to Gedong Songo temples, the Ambarawa Railway Museum, and Banaran mountain coffee views.
“What an adventure and Bima looked after us like VIPs. Beautiful views even on the way there, and the temples were magical. We loved seeing all the vegetables being grown in the area around the site. Train museum was very interesting - both very quiet on a Tuesday in July. We had a good lunch at the coffee plantation but unfortunately couldn't take a tour. Overall, brilliant!”
