Amazing! - Our driver Yuni took us to the temples Borobudur and Prambanan. He knew a lot about the temples and about Indonesia and also showed us several Indonesian fruits along the way. During lunch he deliberately brought us to a restaurant with only locals with delicious food and the pisang goreng, their specialty.

Great day out - Great tour! Our driver, Ardhan was very nice and a really good driver - he made sure everything was organised. The tours at each temple were great but we definitely enjoyed the one at Prambanan more just because there were less people. If you're in Yogyakarta and want to see both temples without the hassle of organising everything yourself (Borobudur temple can be a bit overwhelming to organise once there) I would totally recommend this tour as you also get to go on the Borobudur temple (only 150 people every hour can go to the top and you can only go with a guide).

Great experience in every way - The trip was excellent and far exceeded our expectations. Our guide Haidar was particularly good, he was very knowledgable and went out of his way to make sure that everything went smoothly. The temples are stunning and this is the best way to visit them as absolutely everything is included in the price and sorted for you.

Excellent day with with fantastic guide - Was a good eight hour full day, prompt pick up at 7am by Haidar, who is an excellent guide, driver and host. We visited another temple as traffic was light, before arriving at Borobudur. Once there you have to join an organised group to visit the temple. Excellent mountain and volcano views from the temple, and you do have some free time to explore alone. Once we had found our way out of the gift shop/exit maze, Haidar drove us to a local store to replenish snacks and drinks and then we drove over to Prambanan complex, stopping for a good lunch on the way. This is a more relaxing historical park to visit with two large sites, one Hindu and one Buddhist, and Haidar and led me on foot around the temples and brought me to the best photo locations, as well as sharing his historical knowledge in good English. It was a long but great day, with an excellent guide Haidar, and I recommend.

Amazing tour - The temples are amazing and I highly recommend visiting them. This tour was perfect for us because we were short on time and needed to go to the airport after it. Brian who was our guide took us to the airport and he was very kind and very good guide.

Best tour, amazing staff! - I took the Borobudur and Prambanan day tour and it was amazing! The organization was great (very fluid and easy communication) and my driver, Adit, has been the best one! Adit explained me a lot of interesting facts and drove me to a Luwak Coffee Shop once he knew I how much I enjoy coffee. I particularly enjoyed the Prambanan visit with Dwi, my guide there. I totally recomend this tour!!
