Great 4.0
The hotel is close to my workplace, so it's convenient to just walk there. However, if you're coming from the train station, you have to go quite a long way around to get here. When leaving, it's easy to depart from the front of the hotel. The breakfast at the hotel is sufficient, and the Indomie (instant noodles) are the most important part! The bed is adequate, but the room is a bit small. The location is close to several food options, but if you want to go to Malioboro, it's about a 300-meter walk. Overall, Grand Zuri is still okay. Thanks!

Great 4.0
Room size is adequate for 1 person,everything works. The water dispenser in the hall was empty. Suggestion to hotel for 1 night light/ dimmer, all lights too bright for sleep/ night. Food delivery (gojek/grab) is possible, just pick it up in front of lobby. Hotel within walking distance to Prawirotaman/Tirtodipuran areas, through small neighbourhood walks, clean & safe.

Fantastic 5.0
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.

Romy from Tejong Asia was an excellent tour guide. He arrived early to pick us up and was able to drop us off at different locations along the way so we could get the things we needed, such as breakfast, water, and iced drinks. He was very accommodating throughout the trip. he also edited the videos for us; he took photos and videos for the tour. He took the initiative to make a video on his own, and it was super cute and high quality. He also prepared plastic bags for us after the tour because he knew that our clothes would be wet, which was very helpful. Thank you, Romy. Anni from Pindol cave and gave us the best tour and even gave me his slippers because I lost mine in the water while he walked on the rocks barefoot and carried our rubber tubing for us, truly the best experience booking this tour. highly recommend for anyone looking to do smth fun in Jogja!

What to know before visiting Yogyakarta

Quick city snapshot and what people book

Yogyakarta is a cultural hub where tours, events and massages dominate Klook bookings, with cultural experiences and family-friendly zoo visits also popular. Demand swings strongly through the year, concentrating in a pronounced high season around August and easing back to much lower levels in several other months.

Best times to visit based on crowds and prices

Klook data shows a clear peak in August, with activity demand much higher than the rest of the year, and a low point around April when demand is notably quieter. Prices move only moderately through the year: November typically appears as the priciest month on Klook while December is typically the cheapest. If you want smaller crowds and lower prices, consider travelling in April or December; if you’re after peak-season atmosphere and the busiest programme of events and tours, aim for August (with September also noticeably busier). Note that price and demand don’t move in perfect sync here — the busiest month (August) isn’t the absolute priciest on Klook, so you may find high demand without the highest listed prices.

Tips for travellers from Australia

Most travellers from Australia book about four days in advance on average, and many last-minute options still exist just a day out, so a degree of flexibility works well. If you’re travelling in the August peak, plan and firm up key tours a couple of weeks ahead to secure spots; for quieter months you can often lock things in closer to departure. Use Klook to compare and confirm experiences across tours, events and cultural activities so you can adjust plans easily.
