About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- florianlD5247CW0 contributionsVery nice experience!My wife and I were really lucky with this tour! Our driver Febrian picked us up on time at 04:00 and gave us a very warm welcome. We really enjoyed the sunrise at the Borobudur temple. We were relatively late in the season, so it wasnt that crowded. The view was amazing. Febrian really did a great job organizing everything for us, taking care of the entrance fees, handing us over to our temple guide and even taking our shoes (you get special slippers for the temple). Our guide in the temple was also great and took us into the world of Borobudur and Buddhism. We then went on to the Merapi volcano, for which we were picked up at the parking lot by jeep. Unfortunately, the volcano was completely in the clouds - there's nothing you can do about that, it's nature ;) The volcano museum was interesting, unfortunately the jeep driver couldn't answer all our questions as he couldn't speak English very well. In general, it is very touristy there, which seemed a bit deliberate. The jeep ride in the water park was fun, but also very touristy. We personally could have done without it, we just wanted to see the volcano :) Febrian took us for a small soup (very good!) - his insider tip! Then we went on to the Prambanan temple, which impressed us even more than Borobodur. Here we had a great private guide who even spoke German. Febrian then took us back to our accommodation safely. His friendliness and the nice conversations in between rounded off our tour pefectly - thank you Febrian for the good organization!Written September 4, 2024
- Voyage5295750 contributionsTransfer and structure temple ticketI've done the Borobudur with transfer from Yogya, with structure ticket for the temple. We were 6 and have shared the car with another family of 4. Despite first misunderstandings, it was all well organized. We had a super driver (Ipung Sis Suradi - ask for her). We have been picked up at the hotel at 13.15, arrived in Borobudur around 14.40, ready for our entrance ticket at 15.30, unhurried. You have only 1h20' to visit the temple (this is defined by the temple regulation), so you have precise the time for visiting and enjoying the last level with the sunset. Amazing. We have organized with them also the transfer from the airport and one day tour to Plaosan and Prambanan. The driver wan't as smart as Ipung, but he was very kind and always tried to accomodate to our needs.Written August 14, 2024
- tomoka9250 contributionsWonderful full day tourIt was a great trip and experience to us. We had a wonderful time all day long from sunrise to sunset by touching the natures and cultures. The driver was flexible and friendly. We asked bunch of questions about life in Indonesia and the driver taught us many things while driving. At the end, we joked around and laughed, which the trip became totally fun even in a car during traffic time. Thanks a lot for the wonderful time!Written August 2, 2024
- Trip242361136970 contributionsBeautifulWe had a really nice trip with our tourguide Haidar. He made the trip very special with extra information about the village and Yogyakarta. The trip on to the temple was beautiful and I would recommend it to everyone.Written July 22, 2024
- Venture010529186380 contributionsWonderful day !We are so happy and grateful for this wonderful day. Our driver/guide Arief is a so kind and professional person. He helped us for all the visits and is very patient! We went to a special place for the sunrise, then in Borobudur he explained so well the procedure for the visit and where we have to wait for a local guide to climb the temple. He left us time to walk around. As he noticed that we were very interesting by the local heritage, we stopped by two other small temples before to reach Prambanan. We couldn’t do what we did by ourselves and are so happy to have found him through the agency. We have now incredible memories ! Terima Kasih Arief !Written July 16, 2024
- tmerker0 contributions4 day tour from Bali to YogyakartaIt was one of the best tours we ever made. We are picked up at our hotel in Bali and take the ferry to Java. Nasir Anung was now for 4 days our guide and driver. First highlight was the night hiking to Mt Ijen and down in the crater to see the „ blue Fire“ and later seeing the sunrise on the crateredge. Exhausting but unforgettable. Next after a long drive with interesting Conversation mit Nasir was Mt Bromo. Nasir Anung was the perfect guide and his english is excellent. Next day was the drive to the Tempel Borobodur and Prembangan . World heritage sides ! We recommend this tour accompanied by the perfect guide and save driver Nasir Anung and his company Yogya borabodur tour and travelWritten July 12, 2024
- R7826NGthomass0 contributionsImam & Bryan make your tour to Bromo unforgettable!We had such a great time with our driver Bryan and guide Imam during our tour to Bromo, they are the best! Very kind and carrying, providing cold water, great eating spots and taking Instagramable pictures at the vulcano. They told us a lot about the culture, nature and the Bromo vulcano of course. They were even helping by our further plans on Bali. If you are planning to go to Bromo, be sure to reach out to Imam and/or Bryan to make the tour unforgettable! Thanks again guys!🙏🏼😊Written May 29, 2024
- 468elsev0 contributionsVery good!!It was an amazing experience! Dian was a great guide and driver and he told is a lot about the Borobudur and Prambanan but also about Indonesia. He is very kind. He was on time at our accommodation and he told us every time that we should take our time and do not need to rush things. That was nice. Good experience and I would definitely recommend this tour.Written May 20, 2024
- Steven M0 contributionsRice field and temple walkWe had a great tour through the ricefields. The scenery is beautiful and you get to see the farmers at work. Our guide Atok, growing up on a ricefield himself, knew a lot about the process of farming and also shared interesting knowledge about the vegetation and other aspects of the culture. We would definitely recommend him as a guide. He is enthousiastic, friendly and speaks english very well and also gave us some tips for the rest of our stay in Jogjakarta. Thanks again for the wonderful time Atok!Written May 8, 2024
- hawaim0 contributionsGreat Ijen, Bromo, Prambanan and Borobudur Tour rGreat tour! Ijen and Bromo are some of the most beautiful and crazy things I've seen, and I also loved Borobudur. My driver Imam was super friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable, which made the experience significantly better. The guides on site were also fantastic. There is a lot of commuting involvee, and it's not cheap, but it really is worth it!Written April 18, 2024
- Alessandro M0 contributionsAmazing Tour kawah ljien, Bromo, Prambanan, Borobudur with Nasir Anangwe did this tour and it was amazing! The treks and the sunrises are wonderful and what can I say about the temples, places where time seems to have stopped. Special thanks to our guide/driver NASIR ANANG, a nice guy who immediately puts you at ease and who answers any curiosity you have. Advised 🌋🌄❤️Written March 28, 2024
- Chad N0 contributionsGreat tour of the templesThe temples were beautiful. We really enjoyed the entire tour, Youss our host picked great restaurants for breakfast and lunch and was a great organizer and driver. Unfortunately we had a bunch of cloud cover for our sunrise and trip to the volcano but this is the one thing nobody can control. The tour is an excellent day spent and well worth the money!Written March 15, 2024
- S528SSalexanderl0 contributionsJomblang cave tour with driver youssGreat experience at the jomblang cave thanks to our great driver youss. I recommend bringing a torch and mosquito repellent.Written March 4, 2024
- Dream112281440030 contributionsMost beautiful cave views you'll ever see ✨This was probably one of my favorite experiences in Yogyakarta! I love anything with nature so this was a must experience and it didn't disappoint. The views were absolutely beautiful and it was one of those moments where you just feel like such a small part of a big world. It was truly incredible and I highly recommend it. All ages can definitely do this experience since there is only a little bit of a "hike". It's a little slippery but they'll give you boots to help with the terrain. Also, if you go don't forget to bring an additional 500k rupiah to enter the cave! The pick-up to and from your accommodation is convenient since you do not have to worry about anything like going to a meet-up place. My driver Mr.Yoss was super nice and we were able to stop at some side of the road stalls to try different local snacks. He gave some great recommendations in terms of food and activities and made my experience enjoyable :) Overall, I highly recommend it, you won't regret it!Written March 2, 2024

Anang Nasir picked me up from the Star Breeze port in Semarang and drove me to the Buddhist temple. On the way we chatted about Java Indonesia and Florida in the USA. My husband was not feeling well so I went solo with Anang. What a polite young man who speaks the English language very well. Anang asked about my favorite music and we listened to the Temptations Akon our route. Anang pointed out the highlights. He stopped on the way home to stop for mangosteen fruit for my husband. He is very thoughtful. Anang turned me over to a guide inside the temple who explained the history of the temple and identified the trees and bushes inside the park surrounding the temple. Anang made a long ride into a fun time. I highly recommend the trip and the guide.

Dear Emily,
We are so glad to hear that you enjoyed all of the trip so much, and that Nanda & Galih even managed to fit in some bonus stops too. Went to some unusual places, are always a hit!
By using smaller mini-coaches, which enable us to take the roads less travelled, this also ensures that the time spent driving between key sights is well utilised, and gives our wonderful driver guides the opportunity to enthrall you with their stories.
Many thanks for your great review!
