Yogyakarta Day 1: Mt. Merapi Jeep Ride

After our lunch, we were transported to a place (I've no idea where it was), where there is plenty of shops offering jeep ride services. Among all the shops, our driver had chosen this as he said that the package offered by this shop is inclusive of insurance.
JWM - Jeep Wisata Merapi
There are 3 packages offered - Short, Medium & Long, where Medium and Long trip covers more places. We took the Medium Package which cost IDR450k per jeep. A jeep can ride up to 4 pax.
So we start our bumpy ride. It was a rainy day. No luck.
We were stop at a house which was left after the volcano erupted.
That's Mt. Merapi - the active volcano which erupted once in every 4 years.
Alien Rock.
We were given Teh Botol after the tour end.
It was a good experience, however I would not repeat it.
The ride was really bumpy and uncomfortable. Furthermore, the rains dampen my mood.
For first timer, you may give it a try :)
