    Borobudur and Prambanan are two of the most spectacular temples in the world — up there with Angkor Watt. Our guide was wonderful. Patient, responsive and helpful in so many ways. Do not miss this trip.

    What an incredible experience!! Our tour guide Atok was so friendly, knowledgeable, and gave us fantastic suggestions for the rest of our stay in Jogja. The sunrise tour of Borobudur temple was beautiful and well worth waking up early for. Despite the sun visible through the clouds for only a brief moment, the ripples of the colorful pallete it cast over the surroundings and the temple were breath-taking and not to be missed! The jeep tour of Mt. Merapi was an exciting adventure with many different stops with views of the volcano, paired with educational moments of how the volcanic activity impacts local life. We finished the day with a tour of many temples within Prambadan which Atok told us the local folklore along with the history behind many of the impressive structures. We highly recommend this trip!! Thank you so much to all who made it a special day!

    Haidar was fantastic! He knew the history of the temples and the general history of Jogja well. He also booked Mr. Teja as my guide for the Prabanan Temple. Mr. Teja was very well knowledgeable about the temple's history and the cultural significance of the architecture.

  • Fantastic tour - do it!

    I had a fantastic experience on this excursion with Yuni, my guide and driver (I was alone). We left Yogyakarta at 3:30 a.m. and arrived at Borobudur before sunrise. The local guide then drove us to the temple, where we admired the site. Given the season and the current international situation, there were only ten of us (whereas the number of participants for sunrise viewing is usually limited to around one hundred). With Yuni, we then went to Mount Merapi, where a jeep driver took me to see the still-active volcano. We also visited a bunker and a museum (a house partially destroyed by lava). Finally, still with Yuni, we went to Prambanan, our last destination. Yuni told me the history of this place.

    My 19yr old son and I are travelling through Indonesia and took a standard tour which helps covering in 1 day Borobudur, Mt. Merapi and Prambanan. What made the difference for us was, our guide and driver Haidar. Haidar took us to to all these spots with perfect timing, sharing with us his vast knowledge and in a great atmosphere. Borobudur and, especially the Prambanan complex, for which I recommend adding more time, are sites you don't want to miss. Mt. Merapi, you can't control the visibility conditions...especially during the wet season. Make sure to ask for the plastic coats cover, if your local guide (the one picked by Haidar was excellent) is going to take you to the river!

    The trip covered all the important tourist spots including sunrise in Borobudur. It was breathtaking. It was totally worth it to get up at 3am for the view. The driver (guide) Haidar is very professional and welcoming. Highly recommended.
