- Hello me name Shloli, Following the rule from our government, to visit Borobudur temple now for visitors can buy the entrance tickets via online website, limitation of special tickets for climbing Borobudur to the structure is 150 visitors per hour going up to the temple structure. I would recommend you to book the entrance tickets to Borobudur climb earlier as possible. After I receive the notification of your booking, I’ll immediately send you the special website link for purchasing the entrance tickets for Borobudur Climb (Temple Structure). With this information I hope the visitor will have enough time to buy the entrance tickets for Borobudur climb to the structure before it’s sold out. On Monday, visitors can’t access the main temple. There are only allowed to see the main temple from the yard only. Because on Mondays there are temple maintenance activities, every Monday.

Great day - We found Sholi here by chance and we were very lucky to do so. We contacted him with very little notice, we had little time in the area and we wanted to do many things, but he solved everything perfectly, adapting to our needs and finally having a perfect day.
We spent the day with Andri, our guide and the best driver in Java, punctual and friendly, who picked us up at the airport and took us on the route of the temples and Merapi, making everything very easy for us.
As our flight was also delayed a little and we adjusted our schedules even more, we spent a very intense and very hard day in which we hardly even had time to eat due to all the activities we had, but at all times he was an excellent professional and thank you That's why we were able to do everything planned. They know exactly what they do and are one of the best professionals we found on our trip to Indonesia!
A very intense but great day and very well spent thanks to Sholi as organizer, and Andri as our guide and driver. We are very grateful to them because they made something difficult possible, and of course anyone who counts on them will be as happy as we are, so I absolutely recommend it and if you have any pending excursion or service in the area, I don't think there is a better option Than Sholi and his team.
Thanks Andri and Sholi!

A perfect day in Java - I had a great time visiting the sight of Prambanan, Borobudur and mount Merapi during my day. Sholi was very helpful and also brought me to a producer of Kopi Luwak. We also had some time to kill before Borobudur and visited the nearby Mendut temple and buddhist monastery, I strongly recommend!

Great day to the temples for Yogyakarta - Sholi was a great driver, and helped us arrange everything. Despite the heavy traffic everywhere during Eid, we were still able to make it to everything we had planned without worry. He was also able to arrange an extra activity for the evening for us upon request, to see the ramayana ballet back in yogyakarta. We were so pleased we booked him again for the next day for our airport transport. We would use Sholi again on our next trip to the area!

Best tour guide ever! - What an incredible time we had with our tour guide Sholi in Yogyakarta! He was like a friend from the moment we met, welcoming us with big smiles and genuine enthusiasm.
His knowledge of Yogyakarta was impressive, and he shared stories that brought the city to life in a whole new way. We felt like locals, thanks to their insider tips and recommendations.
But what truly made our experience special was his warmth and care. He was not just a guide – he was a friend, making sure we were comfortable, happy, and fully immersed in every moment.
We can't thank our guide Sholi enough for showing us the magic of Yogyakarta. If you're looking for an unforgettable adventure, look no further – book a tour with them and get ready for memories that will last a lifetime!
