Do not go.
Please don’t go it’s a rip off! I had a terrible experience. I wasn’t granted access to the Borbodur temple. The sunrise is from a hill where you can’t even see the temple. I was picked up at 3.45am by a men and I was the only one participating at the excursion. The guy was ok but that’s not a situation I want to be put in as I am a female solo traveller. I would have liked to know as I got scared at first. No one spoke English and there were zero guides to explain something about the other temple. Worst tour ever taken in SE Asia and the most expensive also (131€).
Response from the operator: Dear Mrs Floriana Maione Thank you very much for your amazing review. So that everything is clear we will also tell what is going on with our tour participants. Initially these participants booked tours at our place a few hours before the tours were carried out. We have explained in detail the tour program for this guest. 1. Since covid 19 borobudur temple is closed for sunrise activities. 2. We have provided information for the sunrise on the hill, not at Borobudur Temple. 3. We follow our government's rules that the Borobudur temple is open from 08.30 to 15.30 with a specified session system. 4. We have informed this guest that the entrance ticket to Borobudur depends on the session you get. before she started the tour we had explained from the start, We called him if it didn't match what we said the guest could cancel and we could refund the money. but she doesn't seem to care and appreciate what we have informed her. Such is the chronology. Hope that answers everything. For people who want to take a tour with us, please respond wisely. Thank you very much Best regards San

Wonderful experience with Yogyakarta Local Tours
We did a 6 day trip with Yogyakarta Local Tours with Ikhsan as our guide and Shawli as our driver. We covered Mt Bromo, Ijen, Timang beach, Borobudur, Prambanan and even managed to play with fireworks at a village. Ikhsan is a sincere and yet friendly guide, and always paying attention to small details such as what the guests preference for drinks and food! Shawli is an experienced and careful driver, always wearing a smile! It was a pleasant experience with Yogyakarta Local Tours and definitely recommended for all who choose to travel to Yogyakarta and Mt Bromo/Ijen.
Response from the operator: Hello Mrs Lim. Thank you for taking your time to write a review and entrust Yogyakarta Local Tour as your travel patner. We are very glad you can enjoyed our tours. We hope to meet you again in another opportunity. Thank you, see you! Best Regards Ikhsan Yogyakarta Local Tours.

Nice experience with yogyakarta local tour
ery pleasant experience with Yogyakarta local tour because the service is satisfying the driver and the guide was friendly when explaining the tourist attractions, I really enjoyed the trip to Borobudur temple to enjoy the sunrise, the scenery around the temple and touring the Prambanan temple which was quite draining to surround the temple but the taste tired will pay off with the beauty of the temple

Why this scores 61
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Barede Sunrise- Walking to Borobudur temple-Prambanan temple: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Yogyakarta.
How much does Barede Sunrise- Walking to Borobudur temple-Prambanan temple cost?
+
Prices start at $200 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Yogyakarta usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Barede Sunrise- Walking to Borobudur temple-Prambanan temple take?
+
Plan for about 10 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Yogyakarta is not rushed.
Is Barede Sunrise- Walking to Borobudur temple-Prambanan temple worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 61 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.7/5 across 17 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Yogyakarta, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Barede Sunrise- Walking to Borobudur temple-Prambanan temple?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Barede Sunrise- Walking to Borobudur temple-Prambanan temple suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 10-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Barede Sunrise- Walking to Borobudur temple-Prambanan temple?
+
Around 6 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Yogyakarta can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Yogyakarta and add a light layer if any part of the 10-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Barede Sunrise- Walking to Borobudur temple-Prambanan temple start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Yogyakarta within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Yogyakarta?
+
On Outty we rank every Yogyakarta experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Yogyakarta Private Car Hire with Driver, From Surabaya / Malang : Mt Bromo Sunrise - Ijen Blue Fire 2D1N, Borobudur Full Climb Up And Prambanan ALL INCLUSIVE PRIVATE Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Yogyakarta?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Yogyakarta?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
