A great adventure
The cooking class with Dwi was a great way to start our adventure. After that we only had beautiful days.

Unforgettable!
In Yogyakarta the bike ride through the rice fields and the cooking workshop of Mrs. Dwi Supardi were unforgettable!
Jessica& Arco from the Netherlands (September 2024) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
The cooking class and the dinner was unforgettable
“We had three tour days starting from Airport pick-up in Yogyakarta. We had a lot of activities that we had agreed before booking and I really have to say thank you to Pardi because he was so patient with all my requests and he managed to fit all in the time we had. Other than the”must see” in the area, the cooking class and the dinner we had with his wife was unforgettable, as well as the batik course (we really made our batik from scratch experiencing different techniques).
He also organized the long transfer to Malang.
All went smoothly.”
