What to expect
You'll spend the day in an open-sided VW, stopping frequently to walk short distances through villages where locals work cottage industries and tend paddies. Mornings are cooler; afternoons warm up. The waterfall and monkey sanctuary draw crowds, so expect other visitors at peak times. Lunch is a sit-down Indonesian meal (vegetarian available). Roads are mostly sealed but uneven in places. Bring water and reapply sunscreen between stops.
