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.

We were picked up promptly at 4:00 am by our driver, Yuni, he was super nice and could speak English very well. Yuni showed and explained a lot to us. We felt very comfortable with him and had a great day. We also made an unscheduled stop in between because we wanted to see something else. At the end we had lunch together in a local restaurant, which Yuni recommended to us. It was really delicious. We were glad that we didn't have to worry about anything and really enjoyed the tour offer with a driver. A safe journey, many new impressions, helpful and interesting information and nice conversations during the journey made the day very pleasant for us. Thanks very much!

All the three places are worth visiting but I would suggest to make Borobudur and Merapi to go in one day, Pramanan can do in a separate day bundle with another activity. It is too tiring to do all the three locations within a day especially so the trip starting at 4am.

I had a great morning with Yuni! He was more than on time at my hotel and the contact beforehand was very nice. The trip to Borobudur and Prambanan were more than perfect! Yuni knew a lot and did everything to get the most out of the morning, so we also tasted snake fruit on the way and beautiful photos and videos were taken. Highly recommended!
