Holiday in Indonesia
 
Hello everyone,

I've only been to Jakarta and Bintan in Indonesia.
Any travel highlights & tips for Yogyakarta?
Will be travelling with a toddler so I need to be more prepared, in that sense.
I was reading up and chanced upon this video ... it looks super fun but I doubt I can do all these with my lil' one, except the visit to Borobudur.

Can anyone share some nice activities pls?

thank you!

Lol - that isn't what I think of when I think of Yogyakarta! I think of Borobudur, Prambanam, the Dieng Plateau, and seeing the Ramayana ballet.

With a toddler, it makes sense to choose a place with a swimming pool.

Are you going to Bali as well? I think of Bali as being more activity-oriented than Central Java.

Oops :x
But I suppose it would be fun to do all of that if I was on my own :)

You're right, I should probably consider Bali!
Need a place to chill

Would recommend Bali - its a great place to chill. There are great hotels, villas, boutique shopping, market shopping, lots to do. We stayed on the edge of Legian/Seminyak area - fantastic! Food is just amazing so much choice.

Hey there!
I spent 3 weeks travelling through Indonesia recently... for your situation would recommend Yogya, Ubud and Gili T.
