Car Hire

If one hires the vehicle for one day, please understand that the vehicle is available to you for just 8-10 hrs. For every additional 1 hour, they will charge IDR 40-50 K. But if you hire this vehicle for 3-4 days (which I did), you need to do a good level of negotiations to keep the cost as low as possible. In my case, I negotiated with Kresna Travels, located at Pravirotaman Street at Yogyakarta to settle for the rate of IDR 400 K per day, and this would include petrol cost, drivers food and lodging.
