⏳ Timing Advice

To increase the chance of seeing Mount Merapi clearly, please depart by 07:00 AM from your hotel.

Starting later than 08:00 AM is not recommended due to potential fog.

📌 Additional Notes

Mount Merapi’s peak is visible only if weather allows. Clearer views are most likely in the morning, which is why we recommend starting the tour by 07:00 AM.
Ullen Sentalu Museum is closed on Mondays. For bookings on Mondays, we can adjust the itinerary with alternative visits.
Ijo Temple is best enjoyed during sunset. Please allow sufficient time for a relaxed visit.
