This is a magnificent 10+ trip. Tulus our guide is a rockstar. He knows everything and everybody. We were treated like a VIP by him and wherever we went. One of the very best guides we ever experienced. The temples, jeep tour and sunrise breakfast were unique. Travel with Tulus!!

Fantastic full day around Yogyakarta

The best organizer I ever met. Always on schedule, top activities, top private car, and very kind! We asked additionnally for the night ballet at Prambanan and we got it without problem for minimum extra charge

Classy way to see Borobudur, Prambanan, and Merapi

Justin_M, Aug 2022
The morning far exceeded expectations. On arriving to the spot we would watch sunrise over Borobudur, we were surprised to see that we had a nice breakfast prepared for us and a man playing music for us while we ate. Our guide Tulus did a great job showing us around the temples and by request even brought us to a Batik school on the way back to town where we could buy Batik art without getting ripped off. The Jeep tour company that they work with was also great. Our Jeep guide basically did a photo shoot of us in an old US Army Jeep (apparently from WWII) overlooking the volcano.

Excellent service

Excellent service clear meeting instructions. Vehicle and guide on time and waiting for us. Very professional guide Tulus, very informative on our travels and provided history of both towns we visited. We felt this tour was value for money and although the weather could have been kinder, It was a memorable experience.

What a great day of exploration!

Our guide Tulus was great, made sure that our day trip is comfortable, very knowledgeable and also give us lots of personal space as a couple. We definitely enjoyed the trip and recommend it. The jeep guide was also great in taking pictures and friendly, his name is Dani I believe, overall great experience.

Ottima esperienza

Nous recommandons fortement ce trip ! Tulus notre guide est vraiment exceptionnel, au delà du tour, il nous a même aidé à trouver verres de contact pour ma copine. Aussi, il a adapté l horaire à la dernière minute afin qu on maximise la visite des temples et le tour guidé. Bref, un service personnalisé et vraiment professionnel. C est un 10 / 5

Tout était parfait
