This Batik workshop was one of our favourite experiences in Jogja! We met Belinda and her mum at their cosy studio, a calming sanctuary surrounded by plants. They were incredibly patient, guiding us through every step and explaining how the techniques translate to commercial production. Belinda spoke excellent English and was so friendly. She encouraged us to create our own designs and even gave us tips to make them even prettier. We upgraded from the 2-hour to the 3-hour package so we could get our pieces dyed, and we were so glad we did! It gave us a real appreciation for the time and effort that goes into dyeing. Belinda and her mum were generous with their time and knowledge, and made us feel at home. Our finished pieces turned out far prettier than we imagined, thanks to their guidance. All in all, it was such a lovely afternoon and definitely an experience we will remember fondly! We left with such full hearts and, as a bonus, pretty souvenirs that we handcrafted ourselves. 💕

A truly fascinating experience. I highly recommend that anyone visiting Yogyakarta set aside an extra half-day for this. The gamelan master's daughter speaks excellent English, and the entire lesson was very detailed. We got to try five or six different instruments, and you don't need any musical background to have a great time. Gamelan is an ancient musical form, often using a pentatonic scale, that features an ensemble of various percussion instruments like gongs, metallophones, and drums. It frequently accompanies Javanese religious ceremonies, shadow puppet plays, or dance performances. Debussy was heavily influenced by gamelan, and you can even hear K.K. Slider play a version of it in Animal Crossing. The playing experience is very enjoyable, almost meditative, due to its relatively simple rhythms and abundant repetition. The teacher mentioned that a Chinese band called 'Wo Qi' (which means 'I'm angry') came to learn for a day last week, which was quite amusing. We looked it up and realized it was 'Frog Pond' (Wa Chi)... We'll definitely try to catch their performance if we get the chance when we go back.

We can wholeheartedly recommend this tour. Our guide, Angelina, is simply excellent. She shared so much about the food, drinks, history, and more. The food was absolutely top-notch; it encouraged us to try things we probably wouldn't have otherwise. It was very well-planned, and we had a lot of fun.

Enjoyed learning about jamu a lot. Such a special place and kind people. Went to the market, and helped in every step of making the Jamu. Even got advice on my girlfriends skin condition. Definitely recommend!

We had a great time. The tour is well planned and we had everything we needed to enjoy some of the best views we have ever experienced. Thanks to our amazing guide Ardhan we always felt safe and had a lot of fun as a group. We would definitley recommend the tour and especially Ardhan as a guide.

Super nice! The 2-day trip was amazing and worth every penny. The first day was super duper amazing with spectator view of temple, merapi volcano. It was really tiring, as you need to wake up at 3am but the whole journey was great. You need to prepare for walking and little climbing. You can sleep in the car! 2nd day trip was adventerous, and super fun! Cave and timang beach is great, if you are a nature lover. Prepare some extra cloth if you want to change. My driver, Billy is superbly fantastic. He drove me all the way from one place to another, ensuring my comfortness and safety. He took care all my needs, including stopping over for quick meal and toilet break. Communicates really well with the itinerary, ensure everything ran smoothly. Thanks Billy. Overall, if you are in Yogyakarta, please consider this trip as it covers main attractions and you will not regret it.

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.

What to know before visiting Yogyakarta

Quick snapshot of Yogyakarta’s travel rhythm

Yogyakarta draws most bookings for Tours, Events & shows, and Massages, with Cultural experiences and Zoos & aquariums also popular. Demand swings through the year, peaking in August and dipping in March, so the city alternates between lively high season and much quieter months.

Best times to visit for crowds and prices

According to Klook booking data, the busiest month is August and the quietest is March. Prices move independently at times: Klook’s typical prices are lowest in December and reach their highest in January, while demand is at its peak in August. For lower prices and smaller crowds, consider December or the March–April trough; for peak-season atmosphere and the busiest events, aim for August through September.

Tips for travellers

Many experiences in Yogyakarta can be booked close to travel: Klook data shows typical bookings happen around four days ahead, with last-minute options available about a day out and earlier planners booking around three weeks in advance. If you want flexibility, you can wait a few days before booking; if you travel during the August peak, book sooner to secure popular Tours and Events & shows on Klook.
