5.00Another Muslim holiday day so we took the scenic route up the side of the mountain to avoid the highway traffic. Best 3 hour road trip ever. Got to see small towns, coffee plantations, and rice paddies. Seeing Borobudur for the first time is awe inspiring knowing it was built in the 9th century. The many carved panels along the walls told grand stories of past times. The views from every angle were awe inspiring. Our guide, Agung, and driver Slamet, were the absolute best! Agung arranged for lunch on the go so we could stop at Mataram Loewak Coffee to try Loewak coffee. Great experience!
Lovely UNESCO world heritage site

5.00Picked up punctually at the port. Long drive but beautiful UNESCO world heritage site. The traffic was really bad as it was a holiday but it was an interesting drive and seeing the temple made it worth while. Lovely guide Denny and a good driver too. Due to traffic we didn’t have time for the sit down lunch included in the trip but our guide made sure the restaurant provided a take away box for us so we didn’t miss out and still get back to the ship in time. A long day bur a good one! 😀
Worthwhile!!!

5.00Well worthwhile but not without some "moments" Because it was a holiday, traffic was extra horrific. A usual 2.5-3 hours commute to the destination took over 4 hours. However, it was so worthwhile. Our tour guide Moon gave us a lot of info to prepare us. At the UNESCO sight, Moon seamlessly took care all of the logistics for a smooth time. The ride back was an adventure as Moon and the driver navigated the traffic magically but keeping all of us safe. Excellent and Professional!!!

5.00Long drive but the landscape was beautiful and the temple was amazing. Be prepared for some steep steps and hopefully you'll have as great a driver and guide as we did.
