Making the day trip work

Leave early. The difference between a great day trip and a mediocre one is almost always the departure time. An 8 am start buys you empty attractions, easy parking, and lunch wherever you want instead of wherever has tables left.

Check opening hours the night before, not the week before. Small-town attractions keep their own schedules, and nothing deflates a day trip like a closed gate at 10 am.

Before you set out from Bandung

Check hours before you head out, since small-town listings change faster than big-city ones.
