Coses per fer a Yogyakarta

The tour of Borobudur and Prambanan temples was thoroughly satisfying. Although the government entrance fees are high, the preservation, restoration, and maintenance efforts are befitting of a World Heritage site. The park transportation and the detailed explanations from the guides made it well worth the cost. PRAS, who explained Borobudur, was fluent in Japanese and shared stories about visits from the Imperial Family and how JICA, with Japanese ODA, helped with the site's development. His explanations of the history and reliefs were also excellent. For lunch, we ate at a delicious restaurant on the way to Prambanan. The daytime temperatures were high, and we were quite tired after Borobudur in the morning, so we only visited the main areas of Prambanan. Our driver, Romy, was a friendly young man who loved Japanese anime and kept us entertained with engaging conversation during the long journey. He was also skilled at photography and took some great pictures for us. This tour comes highly recommended.

It was a great experience. It was dry season in September so Jomblang Cave wasn't as muddy as expected. The view was stunning and surreal. The staff were patient and dedicated to keep us safe and helped us take many nice photos. After lunch, the journey at Pindul Cave was as enjoyable. Despite me unable to swim, I felt safe while floating down to river on the tube. You can see that the guide was dedicated to bring the best experience.

és considerablement més car que si t'organitzessis tu mateix, PERÒ, crec que val la pena. El meu conductor Adit va ser molt servicial i puntual. També va ser molt amable i em va proporcionar molta informació. El viatge va ser tranquil, em va ajudar a gestionar totes les entrades i tràmits. El cotxe era espaiós, net i tenia aigua embotellada i mocadors a punt. Vaig poder visitar 2 complexos de temples en un matí. Ho recomanaria a algú que vulgui viatjar sense complicacions, estalviar energia per explorar i que vulgui alguna cosa eficient en temps i segura.

Arrangement for pick up was well communicated the day before and agency clearly addressed the additional questions we had on the medium & long route upgrade. Driver was also punctual to pick us up from hotel and handed us over to the jeep driver (also guide). The sunrise view at the bunker honestly wasn’t the best compared to other sunrise I’ve caught in Indo, but the close up view of Merapi when sun is up is truly breathtaking, and the coolness in the morning is a plus. The guide was very friendly and helpful, but with English not being his first language, explanations regarding the eruptions etc. at the various stops became repetitive - not complaining, just sharing. Got to interact with some owls at one of the stops which was a surprise bonus for an animal lover myself!! We upgraded to long route and trip started at 4am and we reached back hotel around 9am. Bring a jacket if you’re afraid of cold; the wind against your skin on the jeep ride in the morn can be chilling.

Tot va anar sense problemes. El nostre conductor, Romy, ens va recollir a l'hotel a l'hora. Tant el proveïdor com en Romy ens van contactar amb antelació per parlar del nostre tour i itinerari. En Romy va ser amable, informatiu i ens va oferir una experiència fantàstica! Vam aprendre molt del nostre tour per Borobudur, gràcies al Sr. Mura, que sabia molt d'història i mitologia 😅 El nostre itinerari complet va durar 6 hores, incloent el temps de viatge. En general, una experiència molt agradable. Segur que tornarem a reservar si tornem a Jogja! 💯

Our guide, Dian, was truly amazing! We hit it off right away. He answered our questions without hesitation and guided us very well along the routes, even when he wasn't present during the actual visits. He didn't hesitate to introduce us to little extra sights and let us taste local products. The places he recommended for breakfast and lunch were fantastic! As for the itinerary: we couldn't enjoy the sunrise because of the clouds, but the setting was still quite pretty and relaxing. Regarding the Borobudur Temple, everything was very well organized, complete with a guide. The site is beautiful! As for the second Hindu temple, we couldn't see everything because we only had 2 hours, but the site is very large and we were approached by charming students on numerous occasions! The temples are magnificent. During the trip, water was handed out to us several times, and there was air conditioning in the car. Thank you, Dian!

The cave experience was absolutely fantastic and incredibly beautiful, and I was so lucky to have such great weather. The driver, Joni, was exceptionally nice. He kindly reminded me to be careful whenever the road conditions were rough. Afterwards, he even took the initiative to bring me to try some Luwak coffee, which was a lovely bonus experience!

Un espectacle interessant de veure. No vaig aprofitar el bufet de sopar perquè ja havia menjat, però també hi ha una cafeteria fora de l'amfiteatre on es pot passar l'estona mentre s'espera que comenci l'espectacle A DOS QUARTS DE VUIT (19:30 h). Només espero que tinguin l'opció de triar el seient, ja que els seients laterals no tenen respatller. No obstant això, val la pena veure l'espectacle si esteu a Jogja!

very nice set up Zoo , clean and Child friendly too experience: Awesome service: friendly staff price:very cheap compare to our Malaysia Zoo
