Yogyakarta to Jakarta Destination Reviews

Sascha I

The bus was late to pick up and then 4 hours late to arrive at the destination. So instead of being an 11 hour ride and arriving at the destination at 10.40pm it ended up being a 15 hour ride and arrive at 2.30am which made transport from the bus terminal really tricky

The Bus didn’t stop at the given adress, so we had to take a Grab to another stop. The Bus Tool so much langer than it was advertised

The pickup point was not in the main Giwangan bus terminal, but in a dodgy rubbish strewn turning circle for Sumber Alam. A bus appeared at our departure time. We got on, then we were asked to get off for a 'superior' bus that would arrive shortly. The bus quality was lowest of the 4 bus trips that we took.

Good staff and good experience on the bus. Nice to have been given lunch and speedy drive. Shame that the bus didn’t end up leaving from where it was supposed to and had to get a separate taxi to the next bus stop. Also left 1.5 hours later than planned.
