My Gado Gado Diary

Hola! I just went back from my Indonesia trip with my husband. And I would like to share my experience regarding my trip. Mi nd you, its going to be quite long story and all based on my personal experience & opinion. And its not sponsored! I just simply blogging for my personal memory & maybe with my share I can help others too 😇😇 Actually last time me and my husband thought going to Indonesia will be cheap because SGD have a very strong currency to Indonesian Rupiah, but actually that's not really true . Because we need to pay quite expensive for the car transport. FYI, after our stayed at Semarang, me and my husband went to Magelang to stay 1 night and the next day we went to Jogja city. We hire car to go Jomblang cave, Prambanan + Ratu Boko temple. Before our trip, I did asked few travel agent about the transport and I personally disap pointed with De Jong Holiday. Why? At first when I email, they were very responsive about my inquiry . But they gave me s...

Hola! Nah sekarang saatnya komen soal Day Trans nih. Jadi dari Semarang emang gue rencana mau ke Magelang buat liat Borobudur. Kenapa gue milih pake Day Trans itu simpel banget karena gue pikir cuma Day Trans yg berenti di Magelang sementara yg laen berentinya di Jogja. Kan gue pikirnya mo save time ya. Jadi ceritanya gini... Dari masih di SG, gue udah whatsappin Day Trans buat nanya rute mereka di Magelang. Dan CS-nya bilang mereka bisa berhenti di mall Artos/Hotel Trio. Pas gue udah sampe Semarang, gue sampe bela2in ke kantor Day Trans buat bayar bookingan gue instead bayar pas hari H. Dan gue pun bolak balik nanya bisa berhenti di Mall Artos kan ya. Dan mereka bilang IYA BISA. Di kwitansinya juga ditulis gue berenti di Mall Artos Magelang. Pas hari H, shuttle ke Magelangnya udah dateng, ada Mas2 yg bantuin ngatur2 koper gitu di bagian belakang. Gue udah bilang ke Masnya kalo gue mau berenti di Mall Artos. Dan Masnya bilang OK. Nah udah abis itu gue & suami duduk deh di s...

Hola! Lanjut info soal Wujil Resort ahh. Gue pesen 2 kamar di Wujil dan sayangnya lokasi Wujil ini gak di atas bukit kayak di Susan Resort. Makanya harganya lebih murah ya daripada Susan. Keluar dari Wujil udah jalanan rame. Tapi Wujil fasilitasnya bagus & luas. Mungkin karena masih baru. Gue dikasin kamar connecting room. Ada swimming pool & ada indoor & outdoor kids areanya juga. Dan ada conventian area juga sepertinya disana (di samping hotelnya). Gue sempet nyobain Restoran Indah Sari yg ada di dalem Wujil. Lumayan juga makanannya biarpun agak mahal (mungkin karena di dalem hotel). Tapi desainnya resto ini lucu dan lumayan Instagrammable 😆😆 Photo will be update soon (lagi males upload wkwkwkwk). Rate Wujil Resort : 4/5 Rate Indah Sari Restaurant : 3/5 x💋

Hola! Nah, abisan dari Susan Spa sebenernya gue mau liat Gedong Songo karena udah deket banget dari Susan. Cuma sayang karena ujan gede jadi kita batalin deh. Trus rencananya mau langsung cek in aja ke Wujil Resort. Ehh udah otw mo ke Wujil kok mendadak hujannya udah mendingan. Jadi pengen mampir ke Umbul Sidomukti deh hehehehe. Tiket mobil & tiket masuknya lupa bayar berapa. Udah di dalem, jalan kaki dulu kira2 7 menit terus harus turun banyak tangga dulu baru bisa liat Umbul Sidomuktinya. Itu sebenernya kayak tempat pemandian air panas aja sih sambil bisa liat pemandangan ijo royo. Bagus kok pemandangannya. Gue kesana hari Kamis tapi rame juga. Karena masih agak2 gerimis, jadilah nyokap duduk di cafe atas sementara gue, suami dan ponakan liat2 ke bawah. Di bawah ada slot buat foto juga lho. Jadi naek ke atas kayu persegi dan bisa foto2 cantik. Agak ngeri sih soalnya di sekitaran tempat fotonya gak ada pegangan sama sekali. Jadi harus hati2 banget. Cuma bagussss pemandanga...

Hola! Lanjut sekalian ngereview Susan Spa Restaurant. Mumpung lagi ada moodnya 😆😆 Jadi gue ke Susan Spa di hari ke 2 di Semarang. Tapi gue gak nginep di hotelnya, tapi lebih memilih nginep di The Wujil Resort. Kenapa gak mau nginep di Susan Spa? Simpel aja, karena reviewnya di Trip Advisor kurang bagus & banyak yg komplen katanya kamarnya kayak tua dan gak keurus gitu. Gue agak2 OCD sih jadi gue udah parno duluan. Plus di websitenya Susan Spa juga gak keliatan bonafid. Yg keliatan bagus cuma Family Suitenya aja. Yg kamar superior & deluxe keliatan jadul gitu gambarnya. Jadi ya mending cari tempat lain aja. Dan kesana cobain makanannya karena kata nyokap makanannya enak & sekalian liat chapelnya. Kesana pas jam lunch tapi untungnya gak gitu rame sih. Gue & nyokap pesen nasi rames, suami pesen iga bakar & sate ayam, ponakan pesen tenderloin steak. Makanannya porsinya kecil tapi rasanya enak! Gue abis Rp 2 88 ,000 buat semua makanan yg kita pesen. Agak mahal ...

Hola! Gue mau buat review soal Toko Oen di Semarang. Beberapa minggu yg lalu, gue dan suami baru balik dari liburan. Gue sebenernya dulu udah pernah nyobain makanan di Toko Oen dan memang jujur gue gak rekomen. Karena si Toko Oen ini makanannya gak ada enak2nya. Yg enak cuma es krim aja. Udah tau gak enak kok masih kesini? Karena ini pertama kalinya suami dateng ke Semarang, dan suami gue pengen liat Toko Oen (karena kan bangunannya historis gitu ya, jadi suami pengen liat). Sebenernya sebelom kesana, suami udah sempet nyaranin cobain restoran lain apa karena gue bilang makanan di Toko Oen sebenernya gak enak. Cuma karena hari itu pas hari ultah ponakan lanang, gue pikir gapapa deh makan yg mahal dikit (sambil ngarep mungkin kokinya udah berubah). Ternyata saya salah sodara sodari.. Kesana malem tuh buat dinner. Pas kesono sebenernya pengen minta makan di dalem ruangan yg meja makannya lebih layak (soalnya yg di depan mejanya agak tinggi gt jd kurang nyaman) sementara di belakang...

Hola! I would like to gave some review about Grab Car at Semarang, Magelang and Jogjakarta. Since I just came back last month from that 3 cities. This is not sponsored and all based on my personal experience. FYI, Grab Car is already launch at Magelang. Although before I came to Magelang I did email Grab Car customer service and asked whether they already operate at Magelang and they info me "no, they haven't operate at Magelang". But actually they already launch Grab at Magelang 😑😑 I was very impressed that Grab Car at that 3 cities was super super fast!! Every time I booked it only took me few seconds to get my driver. Thumbs up! 👍👍👍 I found Grab Car at the 3 cities were cheaper compare to Jakarta. Sometimes at Semarang, I could only pay IDR 3k for my journey (which only 7 minutes car drive). The price suppose to be IDR 9k but I put some code promo and the price become IDR 3k only, how cheap! 😱😱😱 When I was at Mall Artos Magelang, I book Go-Car to reac...

Hola! Last month me and Hubs went to Semarang, Magelang and Jogjakarta. We went to Semarang to visited my mother and nephew. Basically we didn't visit a lot of place at Semarang. We just went to Pagoda Avalokita, visit Susan Spa at Ungaran, Umbul Sidomukti, stay over night at Wujil Hotel and did some culinary experience. That's all. I asked him to visit Sam Po Kong temple and Lawang Sewu, but he refused and said not interested to visited that place 😑😑 My husband fell sick on his 2nd day at Semarang so I didn't want to make him so tired (although we still very tired although we didn't go to many places lol). Okay, gonna make a lot of review about Toko Oen (the place that I strongly think made my husband fell sick), Susan Spa at Ungaran, Umbul Sidomukti, hotel Wujil review, and my bad experience with Day Trans shuttle. See if I have the mood to finish all of that. I already made some draft about my journey to Magelang and Jogja also. Maybe those experience at Se...
