Our tour takes place in Nanggulan district of Yogyakarta, where you will discover the local way of life in a genuine village surrounded by rice fields, rivers, and the majestic Menoreh Hills. Cycle through the countryside and learn about the hardwork that goes into growing rice by joining local farmers planting or harvesting.
Meet friendly neighbors along the way and try traditional Javanese food such as “tempe benguk”, fried tofu, and JAMU, herbal drinks made with Indonesian spices. If you're interested, you can even visit their gardens or farms and learn about the various plants and animals that make up the rural village ecosystem.
Cycling around 17-18 km, this tour is perfect for foreign travellers who want to explore the Javanese way of life while enjoying the beauty of the countryside. If the condition allows it, you may request to take a short trekking down the river to enjoy the fresh water and refresh yourself for the rest of the journey. Shoud requested, the tour will start earlier at 06.30.
Don't miss out on this humbling and meaningful experience that will refresh your mind and body while giving you a deeper appreciation for the natural world and local culture.
