It was such an amazing... - It was such an amazing experience! The temples were breathtaking. Brian was also incredibly helpful and on time in the morning. He also gave food suggestions and went out of his way to look up some other local crafts I could shop in the area. Highly recommend!

Reccommended with Antoni driver - We have Antoni as driver for our one day trip around Yogyakarta. He was very professional and safe driving and speaks very very good English. Whole trip was well organized. If there is option to go for jeep drive under Mnt Merapi, my advise is to start with this activity as early as possible to have chance for clear sky /in afternoon it is usually cloudy/

Best guide you could wish for! - We had the best experience in the world thanks to Yuni. He is a very kind and professional person, who will make you feel comfortabel and have an amazing experience. He is also very funny and knows exactly how to speak to each person. For example, my parents joined me for this trip and he knew exactly how to entertain my parents and make them feel at home too! Very respectful and interested in our stories. You can tell that he loves what he does, and loves to learn about other people and where they come from! Hope to see you again soon Yuni. We wish you and your family all the best and luck in the world!

Perfect team - Wonderful excursion, starting from the driver to the places visited. I would like to spend 2 lines for our Wijaya driver, cute and super nice! We were late, due to traffic, at the first Borobudur temple, so he took us first to have a coffee of luwak, typical of this place, then he accompanied us to inside the temple and even sent us a video on how to get out, easier and faster! We arrived at Prambanan for about 4pm and went to Sewu temple for sunset and saw a breathtaking view!! If you like walking, do everything on foot, otherwise for a few euros you can take the golf cart, but we recommend you go on foot!

Perfect day - The experience was perfect. Thanks to Yuni we were able to visit these two important sites without worries and in the most complete way possible. Especially Borobudur is quite complex as an entry procedure. Thanks to this tour, you can safely get rid of all the paperwork and spend a day discovering the wonder.
The plus of dawn on Borobudur is a gem that not everyone has.
yuni is an excellent and very nice guide who leaves you your own spaces but who is always ready to provide you with information and help.

Must-do experience with best guide - We did the sunrise tour to Borobudur Temple, followed by a visit to Prambanan Temple, and it was easily one of the highlights of our time in Yogyakarta.
Watching the sunrise from the top of Borobudur is something truly special. There’s a quiet, almost mystical atmosphere up there that’s hard to put into words. The access groups are small enough to enjoy the temple without feeling rushed or overwhelmed, which makes a huge difference. After the sunrise, we were treated to an excellent buffet-style breakfast at a nearby center — varied, well-organized, and much better than expected.
The temples themselves are simply breathtaking, but what really elevated the experience was our guide, Yuni. He picked us up very early at our accommodation and made the entire day flow effortlessly. During the drives, he shared stories and insights not only about the temples, but also about daily life, culture, and traditions in Yogyakarta. He even stopped to buy us local fruit so we could try it — a small gesture that says a lot.
At Prambanan, Yuni guided us through the complex with clear explanations and genuine enthusiasm, always attentive and easy to talk to. He didn’t just guide us from point A to B — he genuinely made the day better.
All in all, this is an absolute must-do in Yogyakarta. Highly recommended — and if possible, do it with Yuni.

Beyond the Tourist Path — A Truly Authentic Yogyakarta Tour - I traveled solo in Yogyakarta and had an amazing experience with Yuni. He is extremely knowledgeable and shared so much history and cultural insight throughout the tour.
What made the experience extra special was that he took me to a local market that felt like a true hidden gem—completely off the tourist path and not listed anywhere online. It gave me a very authentic glimpse into local life.
Yuni was professional, thoughtful, and made me feel very comfortable as a solo traveler. I couldn’t have asked for a better guide and would highly recommend him to anyone visiting Yogyakarta!
