A truly excited experience! Rented 2 jeeps from Tlogo Putri at 400K each. We took the 2nd package. There are 4 packages available, starting from 300K - 450K. Each jeep can hold up to 4 passengers. We will be provided with safety helmets. The tour took around 1h, we went first to Museum Sisa Hartaku. There, we could witness the leftovers of the hars Merapi eruption back in 2010. It is basically a former house of a villager that is turned into a museum. We could see photos right after the tragedy (few photos showed after-before), some households left after, and the bones of some cows put back together. Here, there are small food kiosks, a paid public toilet, and a small parking lot. It is recommended to wear a face mask to avoid sand blast. Then, we visited "Batu Alien" but since the place is scoarcing hot, we decided to take a photo at the entrace and continued our trip. Basically, the venue is full of stones and our driver said there's a stone that looks like a face. Next, we visited the Lost World Park. We spent some times here taking pictures and doing flying fox. The venue is small yet nice, there are some interesting photo spots with 1 standout point: view from hill giant hand statue. Also the pecel sold in a small food kiosk is yummy. Finally, we went to the water spot in Kali Kuning. This is the best part of the tour! So we went into some water puddles for 3 rounds. Ended this taking photos at the center of the water park. Along the time in the puddles, we ask a man to take videos of us on the cars. Just gave him 20K. Overall, it is so worth it to have this tour!
