Additional Information

Known as Borobudur, or sometimes spelled as Barabudur, this is a 9th-century Mahayana Buddhist complex situated in Magelang Regency, near the city of Magelang and the town of Muntilan, Central Java, Indonesia. Recognized as the biggest Buddhist sanctuary globally, its structure comprises nine piled platforms, with six formatted as squares and three circles, culminating in a main dome. The site boasts 2,672 carving panels and was originally adorned with 504 Buddha images. The primary dome is encircled by 72 Buddha figures, each within a stupa with holes. It was established during the 9th century under the Sailendra Dynasty and features the Javanese Buddhist architectural style that merges Indonesian ancestral worship traditions with the Buddhist view of achieving nirvana. The temple illustrates the influence of Gupta artwork indicative of Indian impact on the area, although it retains adequate indigenous scenes and elements to confer upon Borobudur a distinctly Indonesian character.

Perfect! - We had a great day thanks to our driver Dani! He waited for us at the agreed time in the lobby of our hotel. Then he drove us to the famous temples. Along the way he told fun facts about the city, took us to a nice place for lunch and to drink kopi luwak. He walked with us to the entrance of both temples, so that we did not have to find the entrance ourselves. Very nice!

Prambanan temple and Borobudur. - Good driver, who picked us up at our hotel at the agreed time. We were contacted the evening before and it became clear that we still had to buy tickets online for the climb of Borobudur. Had a beautiful day and took us to a good restaurant for our lunch.

An enjoyable outing with Mr Arif - Went on a full day Borobudur and Prambanan private tour with Mr Arif. He is knowledgeable and discerning, even suggesting that we take a short shut-eye on our way to lunch, after a tiring morning at Borobudur. Mr Arif is patient, approachable, accommodating and not intrusive. He drives safely and is courteous to other road users. He gives very clear instructions, especially at Borobudur, on where to meet him after our tour of the complex. We would not hesitate to recommend him to our family and friends. Thank you for a wonderful day out, Mr Arif.

Excellent Experience, Highly Recommend! - The process of booking was fairly smooth and the admin gave prompt replies. The car was clean, spacious and we were given new bottled waters daily. We were blessed with a driver (Mr.Santos) who was always punctual during pick up. He was patient, polite and also a skilled driver which really puts us at ease. He helped to work around our itinerary and ensured we got to do what we wanted during our 5 days in Jogja. Additionally he had good recommendations for local cuisines and he also had just the right amount of enthusiasm to match our energy. Highly recommend! 👍🏻👍🏻

Highly recommended for solo travellers (and others)! - Despite recent changes in site regulations regarding visitor quotas, Danny and his colleagues at Java Tourism Yogyakarta were super helpful and efficient in getting a last minute ticket to climb Borobudur. Though this meant waking up earlier, it was definitely worth the morning calmness and view of the sunrise along the way. Besides that, Danny was a very kind, calm and informative driver/guide and suggested a great place for lunch at the end of the trip. I highly recommend this touring company as communication and service have proven to be of high quality.
