I booked this experience for the same reason that seek Sophie was started.. I wanted an authentic and insightful look into local life.. all other tours of batik and similar , that I could find were more touristy and offered the same things on all other trip booking sites.. We were not disappointed...this experience gave us an excellent opportunity to learn the highly skilled work of the batik artists in a relaxed and welcoming environment..all of the staff were so friendly and helpful... the batik class was fantastic and the staff helped us FIX our poor efforts into something that we can actually display.. we did the cooking class also and the lady who did this with us was great and food fantastic. They send you a menu choice beforehand where you choose what to cook... we enjoyed coffee and some music by Karon... karon then took us a walking tour of the village, explaining its history culture and aspects of daily life for the local people..it was very informative...the owner of the business was Tatang and he was also very friendly and helpful.. If you are looking for a tour that gives a bit of everything for a day out and enjoy chilling and learning about local culture then choose this tour... great job guys, I hope you continue your excellent service... first class. ...

Booked: A Day of Batik & Culinary Magic in a Local Village

This was a big highlight of our trip in Yogyakarta! We had such a creative day! Hanung and the Leksa Ganesha team were so welcoming, friendly and helpful to me and my husband. We made beautiful batik art, and we also cooked and ate very delicious Indonesian dishes. We even caught our own fish to eat when we were given a tour of the village to see the different foods that the community grows. We were given free mineral water, tea and coffee. We would highly recommend this experience and we would love to come back again in the future. We were there from 10am - 5pm, so you should allow a full day for this (perhaps 9am - 6pm) so you can take your time. Thank you Hanung and Leksa Ganesha for your hospitality!

I'm a lurker not a commenter, however I feel compelled to leave a review for Leksa Ganesha. Such a awesome experience away from the tourist trail. My husband and I had a great time learning about the art of Batik and also cooking, and I don't normally enjoy cooking!! Truly authentic experience, which I highly recommend.

we had a great day, it was so much fun trying the Batik technique at Leksa Ganesha's! Everyone there is super nice and friendly and helpful. We had some good coffee and were shown around the village before we started the cooking class. The food we prepared was delicious! We even got a video of ourselves working on our Batik fabrics and cooking. I can strongly recommend this event! Thank you for the great experience!

DO NOT hesitate for a millisecond to join this cup filling experience of trying your hand at Batik with the chillest Batik masters. It is extremely accessible to all artistic levels (I’m terrible at craft and I still walked away with the cutest piece with a lot of help) The culinary lesson was incredibly joyful cathartic after a morning of focus. I should also mention they offer some seriously good coffee from various volcanic regions in Java. Most of all, I really enjoyed chatting and interacting with the homies at Leksa Ganesha. I felt right at home. Special shout out to Hanung for being my buddy.
