We were in doubt about which tour to choose from the many different options. After browsing and reviewing several of them, we decided to book it with Rian from Songdjie tours and it completely lived up to every expectation. Rian put in a 110% to make this day an unforgettable experience. Throughout the day he showed us amazing views, made some extra stops to show us everything the area had to offer. During the drive he informed us about pretty much everything encountered and was able to answers any and all questions. His English was excellent and he seemed to genuinely enjoy showing us around. Thanks again Rian!

GREAT tour with a GREAT tour guide!! I was traveling alone and always felt safe in this private tour. Rian knows exactly where to go to make the experience memorable. Both temples are breathtaking and definitely a must.

A superb tour from start to finish. Rian picked us up on time and delivered as planned, safely to each destination.
The sunrise volcano experience and open top jeep ride exceeded our expectations. Borobudur was brilliant as was Prambanan. These, coupled with Rian’s knowledge, additional stops which only enhanced the trip made it all a well worth experience for all the family. A truly magnificent day.

Beautiful sunrise and temples! The driver picked us up early in the morning to drive to the sunrise spot. This spot changed due to planning because the guide helped us to gather tickets to climb Borobodur, which was really helpful, since it was sold out. Recommended!

Giving two stars because in the end we got to see the temples and a beautiful sunrise. After reading the reviews, were really hoping to learn more about the area from our driver. This unfortunately was not the case- our driver was really polite but not much of a talker. Bear in mind that the drivers are contracted by the company only whenever needed and def won't act as guides. Besides this, our driver was not really sure of where to take us /what the tour included and thus could not give us any time estimate how long it would take to get to a given place and did not really know where to go to see the lava - we think it was a bad management from the company's side not the drover specifically, he was trying his best to make up for it. As stated in the title, read the description of each specific tour carefully and don't be fooled by the tour's title- tea plantation is not included if you go for the sunrise. The entrance tickets are also not included in the price. Def not worth the money for us

Hi Karmila,
We apologize on behalf of our driver, Rizki, who was not good at serving you during your tour.
Our education and explanations to the driver before the tour are very clear and have a good service standard, resulting in the best reviews from many other travelers. But it was our fault, our lack of control in ensuring whether or not our driver's service was in accordance with our service standards during the tour.
Once again, thank you for your review, hopefully it will be a lesson for us for our better services in the future.

Our guide Ryan was so thoughtful and helpful to everyobidy. He is such a friendly person and his English is very good. He explained us so much about the plants culture and the fruits, it was wonderful. He also stopped along the way for us to take pictures or to show us different fruit trees. We had an amazing day with Ryan and would highly recommend him and his tours!

The driver took us to Borobudur first and led us to the ticket gate. From there we had to change our shoes with some gifted flip flop and following a temple guide.
Very beautiful temple, very interesting what the guide said about it.
Then we met the driver at the parking and went to a restaurant (excluded) and then to Pramamban. I didn’t buy the ticket in advance but it was easy to do it on the spot.

Great hassle free tour with effective guides. Everything went smoothly and I was very satisfied. Only thing was I wish we had more time at Prambanan. 2 hours wasn’t enough to see Prambanan and the other temple Sewu which is also really interesting. Still would definitely recommend though.

Borobudur was well organized by the tour guide . Pranbanan is self guided but a bit rushed and its really a morning shoot but they are organized for the afternoon. The sunrise was overcast so not much to see. Inspite of this it was a decent full day tour.

El amanecer no merece, se ve de muy lejos, se intuye el templo borobudur, apenas se ve. Madrugar para nada, hay opción a ir solo a los templos a las 7. Si no obtienes el pase a la cima de borobudur yo me ahorraría el ir, el templo de Prambanan es mucho más bonito. Y cercano asíque con un gran o scooter se van sin problema. El precio en el hotel es de 200.000 idr por persona el transporte, si cojes por viator sale más caro.
Response from Host, Oct 2024
Hi Ainara,
Basically, every tour related to nature cannot be controlled by humans, so if when you see the sunrise it is too foggy, then don't blame us because we cannot control these natural conditions. The price for online booking is indeed more expensive, because there is a commission fee that we have to pay for each trip so that our tourism products can be seen by travelers from all over the world. Hopefully your experience will always be the best thing on your travel trip.

Las entradas de ambos templos son casi 40€ (muchísimo dinero), y eso se paga aparte. Borobudur, si quieres subir y verlo por dentro, tienes que comprar una entrada aparte y se agotan en seguida. Esto lo podrían explicar al comprar el tour para que lo intentes. En cambio, nos avisaron unos días antes y estaban agotadas. Para mi gusto , no vale la pena ir a Borobudur a verlo solo por fuera. El conductor fue majísimo, muy entrañable, pero es un local que no es guía, no te cuenta nada de la historia de la ciudad ni de los templos.
Response from Host, Aug 2024
Hi Iria, thankyou for your honest review.
As we noted in the booking page, all entrance aren't included. Also for temple ticket, you can buy online by yourself

Nous avons passé une belle journée. Notre guide Rayan était adorable et très intéressant. Il nous a appris beaucoup de choses. Malheureusement le temps était couvert et nous avons été déçu par la vue au lever du soleil. Par ailleurs les billets d’entrée aux temples ne sont pas inclus donc il vaut mieux s’y prendre à l’avance pour les réserver .
