Guests are met at the base camp in Argomulyo, Cangkringan by their professional driver-guide, who will handle both the driving and storytelling throughout the entire trip. A safety briefing is conducted before departure to familiarise all guests with the route, safety procedures, and what to expect along the way.

The tour departs into the slopes of Mount Merapi, navigating 70% off-road trails across a diverse and thrilling range of terrain — rocky volcanic paths, sandy tracks, river crossings, and muddy stretches that will put both the vehicle and your adventurous spirit to the test.
