I can wholeheartedly recommend. I can wholeheartedly recommend Mr. Tugi. He was our driver in East Java for a long trip. We traveled with family and children. Tugi is a friendly and polite driver, driving very safely and ensuring the safety of his clients. He's also excellent at organizing everything on-site, even if it's just a spontaneous idea.

Fantastic trip with an amazing driver! We spent 17 days touring east Java from Surabaya to Jogjakarta and had a fantastic time touring the different destinations with our very competent, friendly, pleasant, reliable and professional driver Yosi. The service he provided went way above and beyond our expectations and we can certainly recommend his services.

Excellent Guide – Highly Recommended We had a wonderful experience with our guide during our trip to Bali. He took us to visit the stunning Pura Perenan temple and later arranged a trip to the majestic Borobudur temple. Everything went smoothly from start to finish. We felt safe, well taken care of, and truly immersed in the local atmosphere thanks to him. Highly recommended to anyone visiting Bali or Indonesia – we would definitely book with him again!

Highly recommended: 6-day tour of Java in a van, for a group of 8 We are a group of 8 with plenty of luggage, and took a 6-day tour of Java. The large van accommodated us and luggage without issues. The driver was polite and helpful, eager to give us the best experience of Java, his English was decent so there were no issues in communication. Everything went without a hitch, from the airport pickup to organizing additional transportation in Bali, so I can recommend this travel agent without reservations!

The best car rental in Yogyakarta Our driver Yhudo is always on time. He is friendly, helpful and very skillful in driving. The car Hiace is superb with good quiet engine and powerful operation. It is spacious for 7 of us, even with 6 luggage...We had a good time there, though there are some places we had to take out of our plan due to heavy rain n slow traffic at peak hours. Overall, we enjoyed the trip very much. A big THANK YOU to the Grains transport team.

Fantastic East Java experience with Amank Had an absolutely fantastic time in East Java with Amank. His knowledge, spontaneous personality and eagerness to deliver a great experience were beyond valuable. The entire experience from initially designing our customized itinerary to taking us back to the ferry, Amank was great to work with and spend time with. While the trip was only 4 days, I now consider him a great friend and will definitely be using Grains Tour in the future for the next time I visit Indonesia. Can't recommend him enough.
