Wonderful - We were picked up at 4 AM today by our driver, Sholi, who was perfectly on time. He drove us safely to the volcano and was incredibly friendly throughout the journey. He even provided water and bananas as breakfast. His colleague, Imam, the jeep driver, was also very kind and great company, offering insightful information as a fantastic guide. We were pleasantly surprised with a private photoshoot during the sunrise at the volcano. Afterward, Sholi was waiting for us and drove us safely back to the hotel, even sharing some extra travel tips along the way. We are extremely grateful to both drivers – they are so passionate about what they do, and thanks to them, this excursion became a true highlight of our vacation. We wish Sholi and Imam only the best, thank you both for this amazing experience. 🙏🏼 Sarah & Mister Koen ;)

Great day - We found Sholi here by chance and we were very lucky to do so. We contacted him with very little notice, we had little time in the area and we wanted to do many things, but he solved everything perfectly, adapting to our needs and finally having a perfect day. We spent the day with Andri, our guide and the best driver in Java, punctual and friendly, who picked us up at the airport and took us on the route of the temples and Merapi, making everything very easy for us. As our flight was also delayed a little and we adjusted our schedules even more, we spent a very intense and very hard day in which we hardly even had time to eat due to all the activities we had, but at all times he was an excellent professional and thank you That's why we were able to do everything planned. They know exactly what they do and are one of the best professionals we found on our trip to Indonesia! A very intense but great day and very well spent thanks to Sholi as organizer, and Andri as our guide and driver. We are very grateful to them because they made something difficult possible, and of course anyone who counts on them will be as happy as we are, so I absolutely recommend it and if you have any pending excursion or service in the area, I don't think there is a better option Than Sholi and his team. Thanks Andri and Sholi!

A perfect day in Java - I had a great time visiting the sight of Prambanan, Borobudur and mount Merapi during my day. Sholi was very helpful and also brought me to a producer of Kopi Luwak. We also had some time to kill before Borobudur and visited the nearby Mendut temple and buddhist monastery, I strongly recommend!

Very Nice - Sholi was very kind and took great care of us while we were in Joja. He was on time, had a clean car, speak English, and very accommodating to our schedule. He made us very comfortable during our holiday. Highly recommend him if you are going to joja.

Great day to the temples for Yogyakarta - Sholi was a great driver, and helped us arrange everything. Despite the heavy traffic everywhere during Eid, we were still able to make it to everything we had planned without worry. He was also able to arrange an extra activity for the evening for us upon request, to see the ramayana ballet back in yogyakarta. We were so pleased we booked him again for the next day for our airport transport. We would use Sholi again on our next trip to the area!
