Mostly good. The weather wasn’t great so a couple of activities weren’t so good but that’s obviously no one’s fault. We were taken to the jeep tour though (which we hadn’t asked for) and weren’t taken to the batik course (which we had asked for) and then were presented with an invoice for the jeep tour.. granted, we should’ve asked if it was free but still, it wasn’t great, especially since we weren’t able to see anything on that tour due to bad weather. It hadn’t been so disappointing, if we hadn’t explicitly asked for batik which we didn’t end up doing. However, the temples were nice and the ballet was great!

We really enjoyed the trip of Ayla Tour to Borobudur and Prambanan with our driver Adit. The temples were very beautiful and the trip was perfectly organised by the company. Adit was very helpful and kind during our trip and he explained a lot to us. Last but not least, we also enjoyed Adit’s music playlist while driving. I would definitely recommend this trip to everyone.

Our driver Hartono did everything he could to offer us the best experience posible. We loved both templos, a must visit if you come to Indonesia.The lunch was delicious, the restaurant had a beautiful view and was very relaxing seating by the rice fields. They were very good listings to our special request for gluten and MSG free dishes.

I could not have been happier with this tour. It started early (4:00 AM) and AG got me back to my hotel in time for dinner. Every stop was well planned and executed with no disruptions. What contributed to the enjoyment of this tour was AG's commentary in fluent English. His years spent in the US made conversing easy and fun. I can recommend AG and this tour to one and all. You will have a wonderful day filled with unforgettable experiences.

We deden de Tempeltour in Yogyakarta bij zonsopgang. De dag was goed georganiseerd en nergens zat een verborgen prijs. De driver sprak goed Engels en gaf ons een goed gevoel. Hij gaf ons met veel plezier uitleg over zijn land: Indonesië. Hij zorgde ook steeds voor de nodige drankjes (water). Wat was het een fijne dag zonder stress, want alles was tot in de puntjes verzorgd. BEDANKT!

Great way to see and explore the temples round Jogja! Driver Andi was fantastic and got a great spot at the top of the hill to watch Borobudur emerge from the mist at sunrise. Car was a good 4x4 suitable for some of the bumpier roads. Clear and easy communication on the day and beforehand. Special thanks for Seek Sophie and Mega for double checking all post-Covid tour changes/accessibility of the temples and for coordinating with Ayla Tours. Would definitely recommend and use Seek Sophie again for future trips!
