Great new experience - We booked the Jomblang and Pindul cave tour with Wahyu Travel Indonesia. Our driver Wijaya speaks English quite well, told us a lot of interesting things about life in Indonesia. Usually they pick up at 7 am. This is due to the sun in the cave and the queue for the descent. Be sure to take a towel, swimsuit, slippers. Waterproof bags for your camera and phone. This is for rafting on the river. For the cave, some kind of scarf or disposable hat to wear under the helmet, which will be given, long socks, because you will have to wear rubber boots, they will also be given out, flashlight, maybe a hiking stick, of course, if it folds. Because the cave is full of mud, and there is not always anything to lean on. You will be lowered into the cave 2 people at a time, a little scary, because 60 meters down. We finished in Jomblang around 1:00 PM. We were fed local food, it was delicious. You can buy a photo of yourself being lowered into the cave for 35k, so smile when they take your picture. There are also cashew nut orchards around here, it was harvest season (end of October), and we saw this nut growing for the first time. We had a great swim in Pindul cave. Then they took us further into the mountains in a small truck to a mountain river, where we rafted for 1 km. When the riverbed became calmer, they allowed us to swim on our own and showed us rocks from which we could jump.The water is very warm, not like in our mountain rivers. We passed fields where trees are grown, from which castor oil is made. Activity for the whole day, we finished swimming at 16:00

Trip to the caves - Great trip- Wayhu made sure we were first in the queue. That made a huge difference ; there is a fair amount of waiting around and the total group was very big.

Recommended - Our driver and tour guide, Sugito or Gito is very punctual, speaks good English and very informative. Wahyu coordinated with us ahead of time regarding the fees to be paid on-site. The fee for Jomblang cave comes with lunch, bottled water, coffee/tea, gear rental (helmet, harness, rain boots which is uncomfortable and unsafe because I saw a lot of people slip). I suggest to bring your own hiking boots for better grip. If you want adventure, this tour is for you. While descending, you'll see rock formations and greeneries around you. It was rainy season when we went to Yogyakarta but we were blessed with good weather on that day. The trek going to the opening was muddy and slippery (tip: bring extra clothes, headlamp). I was in awe when I saw a mist or fog covering the opening. I don't want to spoil the rest...it's for you to find out :) It was hot, humid and a tiring activity that made our muscles ached but all worth it. We did not go to Pindul cave since my senior aunts don't want another caving activity, we went to Timang beach instead. Overall, it was a nice experience. I'll do it again without a doubt.

Caves with rain - Driver and commute was great even with the rain. The caves were cloudy and wet because of some storms, but still worth the visit.

Beautiful experience - The caves were my second trip with the company and amazing. The Jomblang cave was huge and beautiful. At pindul cave I was sitting in a tube floating thru the cave and later on the river. It was very relaxing. I jumped next to the waterfall into the river from 7 meters hight with a lot of other people. It was an amazing time! The ride took us about two hours from Yogyakarta and wayu, my driver, was very friendly and helpful. We had a good talk thru our day and he also brought me to see the sunset at ijo Tempel that I'm very thankful and happy for. Thanks again it was a beautiful experience and I can totally recommend it.

Great experience! - I would definitely recommend Wahyu Travel Indonesia! You won't be disappointed. Wahyu is a great Guide/Driver and speaks 3 languages (Indonesian/English/French). He's always been on time and is a very good Trip Tip. My wife and I were able to get his services for 2 days and have no regrets See you soon Wahyu! Quentin and Beatrice

Cave adventures in Yogya - Big thanks to our driver Wahyu who made our trip easy and enjoyable. The cave is a short hike from the registration area and the staff is careful to prioritize everyone's safety. The start and end times for this activity seem to be the same for everyone meaning there's only one time slot. This is an activity any nature lover would enjoy. Be aware that the interior of the cave is very muddy and the rocks can be very slippery. There are guides to assist with walking thru the cave. After Jomblang, a dip in the cool Oyo river an hour away is equal parts refreshing and adventurous. A great experience overall in Yogyakarta!

Cave exploration is worth it and you must experience it - First cave exploration I was very nervous about rappelling at the beginning and I was also afraid of the muddy and slippery road. But I didn't expect In fact, I am just timid and But when I saw the angel light, I felt that I had come to the right place. Later, it started raining heavily before we were ready to go out on the lazy river. But keep going without fear of heavy rain Because it will definitely be wet by then I was very impressed when I saw the stalactite cave and the many bats. The most important thing is that the tour guide really recommends it Not only are people polite, but they are also attentive and considerate Even more knowledgeable Learned a lot from him I really admire it and He also speaks French Super awesome👍
