Things to do in Yogyakarta

Our driver, Romy, is super friendly and helpful. He took a good care of us during the tour, made sure we are hydrated (you know how hot it can be in Indonesia). Guides are super recommended too if you want to learn on the buildings and the history behind (we know nothing before this trip). It's a worth to stay longer in Prambanan for the sunset.

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.

Wow! an experience like I have never imagined!!! so the day started with waking up at 6:30 and getting picked up by our lovely driver. the drive was about 1.5hours to the first location ( Jomblong Cave) so you have some time to nap, however roads aren’t smooth about an hour in so get ready for a bumpy ride. we settled in for about 40mins, drank lovely tea and changed into the boots and helmet. Be sure to bring some long socks so the mud doesn’t go to your feet! and wear light clothes as it gets sooo hot there (may depend on weather) we explored the cave and took the best photos ever. then made our way back up and had some beautiful dishes (small portion for me though) we then went to do the river tubing and that was even better. make sure to wear swimming clothes as you get so many opportunities to swim and even jump into the water. I Will never forget this day 100% worth it

Ujeee is the driver for our tour, he is punctual on picking us for our Sunrise tour in Borobudur. My friend and I was very well taken care of by Ujeee. Borobudur and Prambanan tour is a must when in Jogja! But with Ujeee, the experience become wholesome.

Everything went on smoothly. Our driver, Romy, picked us up from our hotel on time. Both provider and Romy contacted us ahead of time in terms of our tour and itinerary. Romy was friendly, informative and gave us an awesome experience! We have learned so much from our Borobudur tour, c/o Mr. Mura who knew a lot about history and mythology 😅 Our whole itinerary lasted 6 hours, including travel time. Overall a very nice experience. Will surely book again if we go back to Jogja! 💯

My husband and I always dreamed of visiting the Borobudur and Prambanan temples and they are more majestic in person than in pictures. The van we were in is clean and smelled good. Ray our guide is a skilled, professional, and a pleasant guide. I highly recommend this tour.

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.

Woke up super early! Estri was very kind. The path to see the sunrise didn't have streetlights that day, which was super scary. I walked up the mountain in the dark by myself. Thankfully, other people joined me later. I couldn't see the sunrise very well that day because there were a lot of clouds, but it turned into incredibly beautiful mountain mist. A local guy helped me take pictures and then asked me for a tip. Since I was traveling alone and no one else could take pictures for me, I agreed. Borobudur is definitely a very unique place, but it seems like you have to go with a guide. Afterwards, I went on a jeep tour. Sitting in the jeep and driving on the trails made me feel like I was in a video game scene. I really felt it! Finally, I drove the jeep in the water and got wet, it was a really fun day!

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!
