The sunrise was awesome amd the guide Haidar was very knowledgeable. It would have been good to include the cost of the tickets in the tour cost. Must allow more time to cover all the planned activities as the travel does take away some time.

Great trip, the driver Yoyogg was excellent, very friendly and knowledgeable, gave us some great tips for both Borobudour and Prambanan for us to get the best experience. The Jeep driver Feni, was also excellent and a master at capturing the best photos on Mount Merapi, nothing was touch for him, very friendly and knew his stuff. Would have no hesitation recommending these guys and the trip, amazing sights and memories. Ken and Vic

Full description

After being picked up from your hotel and head to Setumbu Hill to witness the breathtaking Borobudur sunrise. When the air is fresh and as the mist begins to lift, the sun will surround the volcanoes and terraced fields.

After sunrise, you have the option to explore the UNESCO-listed Borobudur Temple, the single largest Buddhist structure on earth. Be the first of the day to enter the gates as they open. This is one of the world's greatest ancient monuments.

Continue your tour on board a jeep to the Merapi volcano, one of the most popular volcanoes in the country. Snap your own momentous memories over the picturesque spots of the volcano.

Finish the tour with a visit to one of the most beautiful Hindu temples, Prambanan. Built-in the tenth century, this is the largest temple compound dedicated to Shiva in Indonesia. See the three temples decorated with reliefs illustrating the epic of the Ramayana, dedicated to the three great Hindu divinities (Shiva, Vishnu, and Brahma) and the animals who serve them.

Once your tour is finished, sit back and relax while your driver escorts you back to your accommodation.

The day is an early start... but worth getting out of bed for! We met a lovely group of people from a mix of nationalities to see the wonderful sights of Yogyakarta, learnt a wealth of local knowledge, got some fantastic photographs and even stopped on the way for some "Cat Poo Coffee" which was delicious! This was a long day, leaving before sunrise and arriving home after sunset but we would recommend to anyone, especially with our driver and guide Prince "Schumacher" Haidar who had a lovely warm energy and was full of information he was only too happy to share. He really did make the day special.
