Borobudur beyond the temple

Pietro_C, Aug 2024
We highly recommend this tour, which will let you discover the outskirts of Borobudur which hide various little villages each with their very own tradition: batik, pottery, artisanal tofu and artisanal rice snacks. You will also be able to get your hands dirty in various workshops! Our guide was young, enthusiastic and knowledgeable, explaining us every thing and more. He even took beautiful pictures and videos of us during the workshops. Don’t come to Borobudur just for the temple but also discover what’s beyond it with this wonderful tour!

Brilliant Tour of Local Industries

Our local guide was very knowledgeable and friendly. We had an amazing tour through the villages, and were able to try everything - from sampling tofu and coffee to painting traditional batik and spinning pottery bowls! A highlight of our trip, the hosts, teachers and our guide were brilliant, would highly recommend.

Tra campi e batik

Elisa_M, May 2024
Divertente giro in motorino tra i villaggi attorno al borobudur alla scoperta delle attività artigianali locali. Simpatici e disponibili sia le guide che abitanti dei villaggi che con grande pazienza spiegano e insegnano la loro arte. Consigliato
