Things to do in 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.

the jomblang is spectacular! pindul ií playful but the water in this dry season is a bit stinky and full of moss. Romi(e) is a really enthusiatic tourguide. he is such a patient and knowledgeable. last but not least, he took amazing pictures and videos for us, edtted them “prêt à porter” for us to upload directly onto SNS

I have booked this Solo Trip via Klook. But really had a nice time enjoying and exploring the various history of Merapi. Really mesmerizing. Both the Car and Jeep Drivers were nice. Very professional and genuine.

The Borobudur sunrise tour was truly amazing, and our guide Wahyu made it even better -he arrived an hour early, kept perfect time, and gave insightful explanations throughout. ***Now about the Borobudur: The temple itself is breathtaking, though we were a bit disappointed to see some visitors sitting on the ancient structure despite the guide clearly stating it's not allowed. Given that it's a UNESCO-protected site, we feel more staff should be stationed at the top to gently enforce these simple rules. Also, the free time felt quite rushed one hour wasn't quite enough to fully take in the grandeur of the place.

As a female solo traveler, I highly recommend this tour! It was absolutely worth it from start to finish. A special shout-out to my driver, Ujeee! He was kind, jolly, professional, and an expert driver with great taste in music. He patiently waited for me, assisted me with ticket purchases, explained the tour, and even went the extra mile by bringing me to additional places like BS Resto for lunch and Kopi Luwak for coffee. Borobudur was magnificent! The additional IDR 855,000 was worth it, especially since a tour guide was included (except for Prambanan). Prambanan Temple was equally breathtaking. I also loved having time to myself to appreciate the beautiful scenery and enjoy the experience at my own pace. As a solo female traveler, I felt comfortable and well taken care of throughout the tour. Definitely worth every rupiah! Highly recommended! ❤️

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An Amazing Experience! I had a wonderful experience visiting Borobudur Temple, Prambanan Temple, and enjoying the Merapi Volcano Jeep Tour. I saw so many beautiful places and created unforgettable memories in Yogyakarta. Special thanks to our excellent guide, Mr. Adit! He explained the history and culture of each place clearly, was very friendly and helpful, and kindly assisted me with photography so I could capture beautiful memories. His kindness, patience, and professionalism made my trip truly special. I highly recommend this Klook experience to anyone visiting Yogyakarta. You can confidently choose Klook, and I especially recommend Mr. Adit as your guide. Thank you, Mr. Adit, for making my trip so enjoyable and memorable! ❤️🙏 Highly recommended!

I had a wonderful experience with Thoriq at Prambanan Temple. He was very flexible and always adjusted the itinerary and timing to my preferences. He also explained about the temple beforehand in the car, which made the visit even more enjoyable. He was genuinely kind, thoughtful, and friendly throughout the trip. Although I explored the temple on my own, the meeting arrangements were clear and I could enjoy the temple at my own pace. Prambanan Temple was absolutely beautiful, and I really enjoyed it from before sunset through to the sunset itself. When I asked for a restaurant recommendation, he kindly suggested a great place and even drove me there afterward. I really appreciated his kindness and flexibility, and I would definitely recommend him to anyone visiting Prambanan!

I was initially hesitant about spending money on this tour, as it wasn't cheap. However, after watching the show, my only regret was not booking it sooner, because the performance was truly spectacular; even my 11-year-old child thoroughly enjoyed it. The reason I regret not booking earlier is that we booked too late, which meant we couldn't have dinner inside the park. This was the most regrettable part; I believe dining with a view of the temple within the park would have made the trip even better. Nevertheless, the tour guide did their best to make our trip perfect, and we had a great time exploring the park. I highly recommend it to anyone considering going, but definitely book early.

Interesting show to watch. Dis not avail the dinner buffet because I already ate but there’s also a cafe outside the amphitheater where, you can hangout while waiting for the show to open AT SEVEN THIRTY (7:30 PM). I just hope you have the option to choose your seat as seats on the side does not have a back rest. Nonetheless, it is worthwile seeing the show when in Jogja!
