Passeio de Meio Dia em Kraton e Taman Sari

The tour started at 9am and ended about 10.38am for both Kraton and Taman Sari spots. Kraton is compact and we were shown two exhibit area - Life Stages Room and Patehan Room. Other sites are walk-through as this is a living palace with restricted areas. After Kraton, we took a short walk to Taman Sari and explored the main bath area and the supposedly old ruins. Wished that there were more descriptions onsite to shed some lights what had happened in the past and its significance. Both attractions can be visited if you have spare time after visiting the key sites in Yogyakarta eg. Borobudur and Prambanan, eg slot into pockets in the schedule and engaged an in-house guide to show you around.

Una visita educativa e informativa dirigida por 2 señoritas, principalmente Diva. Me decepcionó que no hubiera una actuación de gamelán, pero no fue culpa del tour. Verifique en línea en el Instagram/sitio web del Kraton antes de reservar, ya que a veces cambia. Se camina mucho, por lo que recomiendo un bicitaxi entre el Kraton y Taman Sari si va con una persona mayor. También hace mucho calor afuera, aunque hay aire acondicionado en algunos de los edificios del Kraton. Si desea buenas fotos dignas de Instagram, lo mejor es visitar Taman Sari temprano por la mañana para evitar las multitudes.

very friendly guide and very organized. she messaged us 2 days earlier about the dress code and gave clear instructions on where to meet. she arrived earlier than the agreed time and explained all details of the building. very good.

I had an amazing experience on the Kraton and Taman Sari Half Day Tour booked through Klook! Our tour guide, Diva, was truly a highlight of the day. She's a young and energetic guide from Jakarta, full of passion for Javanese history and culture. Diva was incredibly patient, always willing to answer questions and explain the historical and cultural background in fluent, easy-to-understand English. She even prepared bottled water for us, helped take great photos, and knew all the best spots for the perfect shots. Her rich cultural knowledge made the tour so much more meaningful, and her enthusiasm was contagious. I genuinely felt well taken care of throughout the experience. Highly recommend booking this tour with a Klook guide – it’s worth every penny!

Had the best time with Cici, not only did we have fun seeing the Kraton and Taman Sari but Cici also guided us around town where we discovered wingko and helped barter for us at the market. We had a great time and conversation 😊

Our tour guide Elviana was very professional with the tours. She provided amazing service. We felt very safe and taken care of.

It's my first good luck to see the music and dancing performance when visiting the palace. My guide Gaudiya majors in musicology at a local university. That's the second good luck of mine. Gaudiya gave me an introduction during the tour not only according to knowledge from text books but also her personal learning experience. I learnt a lot and wished other travellers good luck like I did.

Pemandu wisata kami, Gaudiya, melakukan pekerjaan yang sangat baik dengan tur ini. Dia memiliki banyak pengetahuan. Sungguh menakjubkan betapa banyak yang dia ketahui tentang sejarah dan budaya artefak, musik, bangunan, dan pameran. Kami juga dapat menonton dan mendengarkan pertunjukan di mana Gaudiya menjelaskan secara menyeluruh tentang instrumen dan signifikansi tarian yang berbeda. Gaudiya bahkan membawa kami ke restoran khusus yang menyajikan makanan khusus yang hanya disajikan di area keraton. Sungguh suguhan tambahan yang menyenangkan. Secara keseluruhan, itu adalah tur yang hebat dan sepadan dengan harganya. Semoga Anda juga bisa menikmatinya.

This time, there was only one reservation, so it became an exclusive guided tour. I met the guide at the meeting point in advance, and we walked to nearby attractions. The explanations were detailed and unhurried. There was a puppet show performance inside the palace, and the Water Palace was also very unique, making it well worth a visit.

good tour and good sharing of knowledge by the guide Harits. The key thing is every item and location on display has a story to tell.
