Javanese Vacation provides private transport, gear, lunch, and hotel pickup. Driver-guide Wedha has earned praise for his comfortable driving and helpful photo assistance.

“The abseil to the sinkhole floor is quick & fun. The cave itself is extremely muddy and slippery (they do provide wellies). Waiting for photo opportunities with the sun shining in can take a very very long time! (people were expecting multiple sRead more”

Yogyakarta: Jomblang Cave Day Trip with Hotel Transfer

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 32 reviews · from $30Best value

You’ll leave Yogyakarta at 7:30 a.m., rappel 59 meters into Jomblang Cave, then walk 270 meters through a slippery muddy tunnel to a dramatic shaft of light. The roughly eight-hour trip includes hotel pickup, local cave guides, lunch, water, and equipment. Yuni may assist if weather forces a change of plan.

“on the way to the caves, the trip was cancelled because of some kind of problem at the caves. Instead I opted for the Mt. Marapi volcano trip. It was cloudy and although we got close to the volcano, it was cloudy so could not see it. Howver the tour guide Yuni was a delight to converse with.”
