itinerary

Welcome to Solo!

Your first day will bring you closer to the royal history of the Mataram Kingdom in Solo. You will be invited to trace the steps through the Keraton Surakarta Hadiningrat and the Pura Mangkunegaran, where you can see a diverse collection of arts, such as wayang kulit (leather puppets), ancient statues, and old historical books.

After lunch, the adventure in Laweyan Batik Village begins. In Laweyan, you can join a batik-making class with the skilled Ibu-Ibu (ladies) artisans, see various batik collections, and purchase them if you wish.

In the evening, our team will take you on a tour around the city while trying some of Solo's unique and signature culinary delights.

Get Ready to Cycle Around Solo Today!

Enjoy the cool morning air as you cycle through Mojolaban Village. During the ride, you will visit a Gamelan house, witness the traditional making of Tempe and rice crackers (kerupuk beras), and soak in the peaceful, lush views of the rice fields.

After lunch and check-out, your adventure continues to Tawangmangu. Here, you will be staying at Rumah Atsiri. After check-in and enjoying a welcome herbal tea, you can immediately indulge in the tropical and foot bath treatments, designed to help you relax before dinner.

Good morning from Rumah Atsiri!

Start your day immediately with Plumbon! Plumbon is a rejuvenating activity where you walk through the surrounding rice fields and gardens in the cool morning air, enjoying the warm sunshine. The journey concludes with a relaxing cup of herbal tea right in the middle of the rice fields.

After breakfast, the Jamu Blending Class awaits you. Here, you will be guided to learn about the various benefits of each Jamu ingredient and the process of making classic Jamu using natural rhizomes. You can enjoy your own blended Jamu while enjoying lunch.

Following the Jamu session, you will craft a personalized essential oil blend based on your character according to the Javanese calendar—fascinating, isn't it?

Before dinner, you will be invited to harvest various fresh ingredients from the Atsiri Jawa garden. These are the very ingredients that will be prepared for your dinner menu.

A Fresh Morning at Rumah Atsiri.

This morning, you'll experience an activity of the Mataram Royal Family: Jemparingan. Jemparingan is the ancient Javanese art of archery. Uniquely, this practice requires you to shoot while sitting cross-legged—a powerful exercise demanding high concentration to succeed.

After breakfast and getting ready, you will start your trip back to the airport or train station.

We hope this adventure has created a positive impact on the destination and given you unforgettable memories.

See you again on your next adventure with Sejiva!
