Private Borobudur Heritage Tour – Merapi Jeep & Prambanan Temple

The experience with Surya was great. He was the best guide during our very first day in Yogykarta. He is very patient, flexible to the needs and very funny! I would definitely recommend!

My friend and I had a wonderful driver and guide. He’s name is Joko – an incredibly intelligent, well-read, and funny man who listened to the same music as us, was sociable, and had a wealth of knowledge about the world. It was a pleasure to interact with him. He also took care of everything. The trip was quick and efficient. I recommend him to everyone.

I had an amazing experience, and a huge part of that was my driver, Joko. He picked me up from the airport when I arrived in Yogyakarta, drove me on all of my tours during my stay, and took me to the train station when I left. From start to finish, he was always punctual, reliable, professional, and made everything completely stress-free. What made the biggest difference, though, was Joko as a person. He is incredibly kind, warm, and genuinely cares about his guests. He always made me feel welcome, was happy to answer my questions, and shared interesting information about the local culture and the places we visited. I always felt safe and well taken care of. The entire experience was perfectly organized, and thanks to Joko I was able to enjoy every day without worrying about transportation or timing. I highly recommend this company to anyone visiting Yogyakarta. If you’re lucky enough to have Joko as your driver, you’re in excellent hands. He truly made my trip unforgettable. Thank you, Joko, for everything!

We had an excellent service provided today. We had a custom tour starting from Borobudur at 4am, Sethumbu lookout, then to 2 other temples in the area, Merapi Jeep ride, Prambanan and dropping us at our Yogyakarta hotel. Our driver Joko was excellent, safe and was good company through the tour and arranged the time well and took us to an excellent restaurant near Prambanan. I would recommend them without any doubt! You will be in safe hands with these guys.

We visited Yogyakarta for two days with Surya, who made the experience perfect. Flexible, discreet, and patient. They suggested what to visit and adapted the tour to accommodate all our requests and curiosities. Where possible, they acted as our guide themselves, leaving space for other visits instead. Thoughtful and honest. They advised us on where to eat and how to adapt to various contexts, in addition to sharing a lot about the daily life and culture of this city and its wonderful inhabitants. Thank you!

We were fortunate enough to have Joko as our guide. He made sure that we had a memorable experience on our short time to Yogyakarta . I highly recommend the sunrise tour to Borabodur temple. Im so glad that i squeezed this itinerary on our Indonesia trip.

Surya was an excellent guide: professional, warm and kind. It was a pleasure to be accompanied by him. The temples are remarkable. Remember to book a ticket to visit Borobudur via the official website a couple of days in advance - Viator can help with that if needed - in order to secure your preferred time slot. You may wish you had more time for each! The Merapi experience was a lot of fun - be prepared to get wet!

We were so lucky to have Joko as our driver. One of the friendliest people we have ever met. Amazing giving us tips and good stories, he also speaks English very well. Highly recommended!!

We had an amazing experience with Joko as our driver. He took us to the Royal Ballet, and the highlight of our trip was definitely Borobudur Sunrise via Manohara. It was absolutely incredible, a small group experience with a knowledgeable guide who led us to the best spot on Borobudur Temple for sunrise. He explained the history and meaning behind each level of the temple, and even helped us capture some great photos. Afterwards, we enjoyed an unforgettable breakfast buffet on Nagi Hill, overlooking the temple. The view was breathtaking, it really put into perspective the vast scale and beauty of Borobudur. Later, Joko drove us to Prambanan Temple, about an hour and a half away. He’s a very safe and considerate driver, and his car was so comfortable that we managed to have a quick nap along the way. Once we arrived, he helped us purchase tickets and made sure we were all set with a local guide. The guide was excellent, full of knowledge about the stonework, restoration process, and the temple’s rich history. This was truly an unforgettable experience, and we couldn’t recommend Joko enough. If you book a tour with him, you’re guaranteed a magical time. Oh, and you can’t miss his car, a distinctive Chevy that stands out among the crowd of Toyotas!

Great driver! Surya was a very nice guy who explained a lot. No tight schedule, buy a flexible day. Relaxed with abslote highlights of Temple and Borobudur.
