Great experience - My mom and I had a truly wonderful experience thanks to our tour guide, Surya. From start to finish, he was incredibly honest, patient, and informative. It’s rare to find someone who not only knows the area so well but also takes the time to explain things clearly without ever rushing us. Most importantly, I appreciated how trustworthy he was—never trying to upsell or take advantage, just genuinely focused on making sure we had a great experience according to our tour preference. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a sincere and professional guide.

Wonderful day trip to Borobudur and prambanan temples - Joko is a wonderful person who is an excellent driver and knows Yogyakarta inside out. We took his service for a day trip to Borobudur and Prambanan temples and it was amazing. Due to hectic travel plans we couldn’t purchase Borobudur temple tickets online, but Joko directed us to his contacts and we were able to get the climbing tickets to Borobudur for same day . His English is really good and you will have a good time with him.

Joko is the best!!! - Joko is not only a phenomenal driver and guide, but also a true pleasure to spend time with; driving around Jogja and the surrounding areas with him are one of the true highlights of my trip to Indonesia. He is incredibly knowledgable about the region and what it has to offer--but also about 80s and 90s movies and music, so we had a blast chatting about everything under the sun while seeing both classic and off-the-beaten-path spots nestled away in tough-to-access hills and valleys. I would leave a 6th star if I could, and simply cannot encourage you enough to see this beautiful region with the assistance of a genuine friend at your side.

2 days Yogyakarta. - Joko is a friendly and patient man who likes to help you to see beautiful things in Yogyakarta. He drove us around all day. Early in the morning to a bike tour, to the Prambanan temple and the Borunudur temple. In between he dropped us off so we could eat. It is easy to communicate with him, because you speak English well. He also helped us for our next destination Malang. He sent a message to a friend who also does tours and then put us in touch with him, so that we can visit the Bromo, Iljen and Tumpac waterfalls. Nice to have this arranged like this. Definitely recommended to hire Joko in Yogyakarta

Extraordinary experiences thanks to Joko - My trip schedule was too short to enjoy Jogja leisurely. So I decided to look around major attractions(ans below) and found out this tour. - PUNTHUK SETUMBU HILL SUNRISE - BOROBUDUR TEMPLE - PRAMBANAN TEMPLE As the photos I attached, the landscapes were surreally beautiful. And as for Joko, he is the best tour guide I’ve ever met. He was really kind, knowledgeable about good restaurant as well as tourist attractions. I believe that this program and the guide Joko will give unfoggetable memories in Indonesia.
