Property questions and answersBrowse questions from guests for anything extra you want to know about the propertyThe property usually replies within a few hours
Hye! I have a question , do you arrange tour for borobudur and prambanan? we would like to stay with you and want to know that if we visit all 4 (borobudur ,Underground mosque, Tama sari, Prambanan tempels) it is possible in one day?or we need 2 days? we will arrive at 21h at the airport. Noa
Hello, Thank you for your request. We think it is better to do the tour in two days. The reason is that the earliest session to go to the top at Borobudur temple is at 8:30 a.m. It also considers the traffic in Yogyakarta. Warm regards Ika SupodoAnswered on 21 June 2024Dear Efata Homestay, I am thinking of hiking Mount Merapi overnight to catch the sunrise at the peak. Are you aware of any tours that take hikers up overnight for sunrise or is this something I will have to do on my own? Is it safe to hike at night without a guide? Best wishes, Kenneith Yong
Dear Kenneith Yong, Thank you for your inquiry. For your information, hikers are not allowed to hike Mount Merapi at this moment. Best wishes, IkaAnswered on 23 June 2024Do you have tandem bicycle (ie. 1 bicycle with 2 adult seats)?
For your information, we do not have a tandem bicycle.Answered on 1 May 2023
