LOCATION
transportation
Taxi
Since the distance from Adisucipto International Airport to Universitas Negeri Yogyakarta is relatively near, around 7 km, taking a taxi to go to the venue is recommended. There is a tourist information desk, ATM and taxi stand in the arrival hall of Adisucipto International Airport. Official airport taxis are available for around IDR60,000, pay at the taxi desk in arrival terminal and then head for the official taxi rank. Give the receipt to your driver, there is no need for any additional payment. It is about half the price to use a taxi dropping passengers off at the departure terminal. Insist on using the meter. Do expect to pay the IDR 2,000 airport entrance fee, even though this has already been paid by the previous passenger on the way in.
Trans Jogja
Trans Jogja is a bus rapid transit (BRT) system operates in Yogyakarta as shelters, with 8 different routes. Trans Jogja operates from 5:30 AM until 9:00 PM. Ticket costs on Trans Jogja are trip based. Passengers pay for one trip and can go any distance along the bus route. Changing buses is free as long as it is done within one hour from the start of the first trip. Be aware that the bus stops are quite far apart, (1-2 kms) and not very numerous, and often the bus stops for opposite directions are not opposite each other. If you are planning on travelling this way, expect to still do a fair amount of walking to and from the stops to your destination. If you take a bus please beware of pickpocket. This is the map of Yogyakarta.
Becak
Traditional three-wheeled and pedal-powered cart, known as becak (pronounced beh-chak), which can be found in most part of Yogyakarta. Haggle furiously before getting into the becak. Be sure to determine whether the price is for a one-way or return (pulang) trip and if you want the driver to wait whilst you conduct your shopping or business. A ride from within the city to the Malioboro shopping precinct should not cost more than IDR 20,000. There is also an ongoing trend where the motor-powered trishaw started to replacing the man-powered one. Likewise, there is an ongoing debate about its safetiness and legality. The fare might be more expensive, but it is surely faster and covering more areas. However, it is strongly recommended to use the man-powered trishaw to help the driver, as most of them are poor and old.
Andong
Traditional horse-pulled carts, known as andong, or dokar, wait for tourists outside hotspots like the train station, the Kraton and Malioboro. Haggle furiously. The traditional route is from Malioboro Street to Keraton, and this is where you’ll find most andong. Usually, andong opt to take you to shop for fake Dagadu t-shirt in Ngasem area with hefty prices. Then, andong will take you back to your initial journey. The cost for one round trip for andong is IDR 30,000. Usually they ask for IDR 40,000 but they may settle for less. Andong can accommodate up to 5 adult passengers.
