Excellent tour with Dani seeing temples and mountains! - I thoroughly enjoyed my trip with Dani today. He was professional, friendly, incredibly knowledgeable about all the places we visited and was passionate about the Indonesian culture. The trip was very relaxed and I felt I could go at my own pace; you never felt like you were being rushed from one place to the next. The temples were fantastic and the sunrise scene is well worth the early wake up! Unfortunately, it was cloudy when I visited Mt Merapi, but the 4X4 ride around the mountain is super fun.
Overall, I had a brilliant day visiting these iconic sites, and I’d highly recommend taking this tour with Dani!

Recommended. - I have an important note for the first stop on the tour. If you want to watch the sunrise at Setumbu Hill, you should choose the 4:00 AM tour. If you want to watch the sunrise at the Borobudur temple, you should choose the 3:00 AM tour. The second stop on the tour is the Temple of Borobudur. The third stop is the Merapi active volcano mountain safari, and the final stop is the Prambanan temple. Of course, the first temple is magnificent too, but my favorite, and the reason I came here, is Prambanan. I can't understand how this temple hasn't become as famous as Angkor Wat in Cambodia.
Regarding the tour organization, I did this tour with guide Fery. The guide is also driving the car. He is a friendly, witty, and knowledgeable person. He came to pick me up even earlier than our scheduled meeting time that morning. The tour started at 4:00 AM, ended at 3:00 PM, and the guide then dropped me back at my hotel.
I would recommend this tour in every aspect.

Great day! - It was a beautiful day; the tour was top-notch organized from start to finish.
Unfortunately, it was cloudy, and we could not see the Merapi completely. It is best to start the tour as early as possible since Borobodur offers little shade. We learned a lot about the temples, their history, and the Merapi. We also made a stop at a restaurant, and the avocado frappé was particularly good here.
A special shout-out goes to our guide Maxi! He was incredibly friendly, helpful, and very attentive. He was not pushy, and the atmosphere was overall very relaxed.
You could tell that he does his job with passion. Maxi provided us with many interesting pieces of information, took a lot of time, and always ensured that we felt comfortable.

Good day trip - Our tour guide arrived at our hotel on time in an air-conditioned car. A bottle of water was provided at each seat. The tour guide was incredibly friendly, cheerful, and attentive to our needs at all times. He even accommodated our extra requests, such as short stops. The sights were well worth seeing and highly recommended for a day trip. Our guide, Axim, spoke excellent English. Despite the heat, we thoroughly enjoyed the excursion
