Beautiful and complete tour
The tour is really nice. The experience is complete! All the temples we saw are beautiful. Our driver Miko was really accomodating, friendly and precise. We enjoyed also the restaurant Miko suggested us. The full day out, with the early wake up call, is pretty tough but really rewarding! The Merapi Volcano tour was not that exciting: probably also because we had a cloudy day and couldn’t see much from the base of the mountain.
Response from the operator: Dear Gherardo, Thank you very much for sharing your detailed review with us. We’re delighted to hear that you enjoyed the tour and found the temple visits beautiful and rewarding. We’re especially happy to know that Miko was accommodating, friendly, and attentive throughout the day. We’ll be sure to share your kind words with him, and we’re glad you also enjoyed the restaurant he recommended. We completely understand your comment about the Merapi Volcano tour. Unfortunately, the weather can be unpredictable, and cloudy conditions can sometimes limit the views of the volcano. While we cannot control the weather, we’re sorry that this part of the experience was less exciting than you had hoped. Thank you again for choosing Borobudur Tours and for your valuable feedback. We truly appreciate it and hope to welcome you back to Yogyakarta for another memorable experience in the future. Warm regards, Borobudur Tours

He accompanied us during every excursion and made sure everything went smoothly and comfortably. Traveling with him was very easy and stress-free, which made the whole experience even more enjoyable. We truly appreciated his helpfulness and friendly attitude. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a comfortable and well-organized private tour!

TEA WITH BUDDA AND SIWA
Booked directly with operator, that sometimes can be hit and miss. However, this was a hit. Communication was clear and prompt. Our guide/driver Razka met us spot on agreed time at our hotel in a clean car and took us on an exciting but also exhausting day trip. He was polite ready to answer questions, not overbearing but friendly and ready to chat if you wish so. He gave insights into Yogyakarta and some basic info on the two temples. He was accommodating to our requests (not that there were many) and made our long hot day a pleasant and enjoyable one. Highly recommended! P.S. days in Yohyakarta in any season ( and August is dry) are hot. The tour brings you to Prambanan temple in the afternoon - about 2PM. For an elderly couple in their early 70s, it is a looong and exhausting day. It would make more sense to split the 2 temples in two days and do them in the morning and finish by noon. High stairs in both temples and heat take their toll.
Response from the operator: Dear Mr. Darko, Thank you very much for taking the time to share such a detailed and thoughtful review. We are delighted to hear that your experience booking directly with us exceeded your expectations. Providing clear communication and a smooth travel experience is always our goal, so we're very happy that you found both the booking process and the tour itself enjoyable. We will also be sure to pass your kind words on to Razka. He will be very pleased to know that his flexibility, local insights, and willingness to accommodate your requests helped make your day more enjoyable. Thank you as well for sharing your helpful advice for future travelers regarding the weather and the pace of the tour. We truly appreciate your recommendation. We hope to welcome you back to Yogyakarta again in the future. Warm regards, Borobudur Tours

Borobudur and Prambanan temple
We booked our tour directly with the tour operator on short notice. Razka, our driver, did an impeccable job. The initial pickup time was 7am but we were able to flexibly change it to 7:30am so we could have breakfast beforehand. He also let us know that there was a music festival at Prambanan temple in the afternoon hence we changed itinerary and it turned out to be the best decision as we escaped the crowds completely in both temples. As it was only my boyfriend and I we were able to request stops on the way to get coffee or a snack. Razka also brought us to a coffee plantation and bought us fruit on the way just because he wanted to give us an idea about the taste - it was really sweet. We enjoyed our time thoroughly. Thank you Razka!
Response from the operator: Dear Ms. Friederike, Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re very happy to hear that you enjoyed your day exploring Borobudur and Prambanan with us. We’re especially glad that Razka was able to adjust the itinerary and help you avoid the crowds at both temples. We always try to make each tour as comfortable and enjoyable as possible, especially when plans need to change at short notice. It’s also great to hear that you enjoyed the coffee plantation and the fresh fruit along the way. We’ll be sure to share your kind words with Razka! Thank you again for choosing Borobudur Tours. We truly appreciate your recommendation and hope to welcome you back to Yogyakarta someday! Warm regards, Borobudur Tours

Why this scores 74
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Borobudur and Prambanan Temple Private Tour from Yogyakarta: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Yogyakarta.
How much does Borobudur and Prambanan Temple Private Tour from Yogyakarta cost?
+
Prices start at $124 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 Borobudur and Prambanan Temple Private Tour from Yogyakarta take?
+
Plan for about 9 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 Borobudur and Prambanan Temple Private Tour from Yogyakarta worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 74 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 44 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 Borobudur and Prambanan Temple Private Tour from Yogyakarta?
+
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 Borobudur and Prambanan Temple Private Tour from Yogyakarta suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 9-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Borobudur and Prambanan Temple Private Tour from Yogyakarta?
+
Around 15 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 9-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Borobudur and Prambanan Temple Private Tour from Yogyakarta 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.
