Surabaya is not a gem - Leyla was outstanding and we really liked her. We enjoyed some of the sights of Surabaya like the monument of the hero, the old market and the oldest mosque in town. We were lucky to see a puppet presentation at the Tempel in Chinatown and interact with the artists. Lunch was pretty bad. It wasn’t in a restaurant but in a cheap food court type venue.

Fun and interesting private tour - This is a really fun and interesting tour. Picked us up at the Cruise Port which was a BIG plus! Walking through the spice market was a photographers dream. Seeing women carrying giant sacks of shallots was unbelievable! Our guide Taufiq very knowledgeable and super friendly.

A full day with wonderful memories. - First off I’d like to thank Yogi for a wonderful day. The booking of the tour and the communication with the tour provider before the tour was great and helped alleviate any worries. This was a full day tour with several stops. We never felt rushed and had plenty of time to explore and enjoy the beauty of each stop. I have nothing but compliments for Yogi and all the stops we made. Each stop was different from the other, but equally beautiful and interesting. During the tour we asked Yogi for a few extra things/stops and he didn’t hesitate to accommodate our requests. Thank you Yogi for everything.

Awesome Tour Guide and Experience! - We didn't expect much when we booked this excursion (our cruise ship offered almost nothing in Surabaya), so we just decided to try this out. Our tour guide was absolutley amazing and we saw many beautiful and wonderful things. Lunch was also tasty and special, although I would have enjoyed sitting with and talking to our tour guide more. I highly recommend this tour to anyone who wants to find out more about Surabaya.

Excellent Surabaya City Tour - We had such a fabulous day touring with Olivia! She was such a wonderful ambassador for Surabaya. In 6 hours we toured Temple Hong Tiek Hian, and played with the puppets, then enjoyed a few puppet shows. We walked through the Wet Market, where Olivia bought fruit for us to try. At the waterfront, we visited Sanggar Agung Temple, so picturesque! Before lunch we stopped at an Indonesian Craft and Gift Center, filled with a huge selection of batiks, carvings, clothing, sculptures and edibles, and very affordable! We had a delicious Indonesian lunch at Pondok, Tempo Doeloe. We then visited the Heroes Monument and learned the history of the Independence of Surabaya, also at Hotel Majapahit. Finally we walked through the dried fish market and were treated to a famous dessert cake, on our way back to the ship. We so enjoyed our time in Surabaya with Olivia!

Wonderful Visit in Surabaya - Iwan and driver did an excellent job of showing us the city during our short visit. Was very flexible and modified the itinerary to fit our needs and the available time. Highlights were the Hero Monument and the Mosque of Al-Akbar. Lunch at local restaurant was also very good.

Ask to go to the fish market! - Oki, the guide, and Faisol, the driver, took good care of us on this city tour. The most memorable part was the walk of through the fish market, where locals were clearly not used to seeing tourists. We got a chance to interact a little with some of the people, which was wonderful. A nice way to spend an afternoon, but remember it is just a city tour.
