    Ditto gave us a tour of the palace, and I loved the fact that he was happy to accommodate our desire to see certain other things, eg he took to a Luwak coffee place to see the process and try the coffee, and a Batik place to witness how a Batik cloth is made. Last but not least, he gave us further recommendations for places to visit and restaurants to try in the city.
