Borobudur and surrounding Rice
Beautiful day organized by Wahyu agency accompanied by our Lutfi and Bruri Guide as driver to visit Borobudur and one of the most beautiful rice terraces of our stay (after Bali). It was a magical day with an exceptional temple and an immersion in a beautiful countryside, with a beautiful village in the heart of the rice fields.
Response from the operator: Bonjour, Fabrice. Merci beaucoup d'avoir réservé cette excursion avec moi. C'était un plaisir de vous accompagner. J'espère vous revoir la prochaine fois. Merci. Wahyu Travel Indonesia 🇮🇩

Day tour in Yogyakarta’s countryside
We had a very exciting day tour at Serogriyo Rice Terrace and Temple. The hike was easy, with a paved trail leading up to the temple, winding through the rice terraces. It also wasn’t a touristy place at all, which made it even more special. Our second stop of the day was at Candirejo Village. There, we took a guided bike tour through the village, accompanied by a local guide. We stopped at several villagers' homes to see how they prepare tempeh and cassava chips, and how they weave various items—like sandals—using dried pandan leaves. We even had the chance to try playing traditional Indonesian instruments that are part of a gamelan ensemble. Our driver, Iskander, was fantastic—attentive, helpful, and very accommodating. I definitely recommend this day tour!
Response from the operator: Hello, Victor. Thank you so much for booking the tour with me. It's nice to go with you. I hope to see you again next time. Thank you. Wahyu Travel Indonesia 🇮🇩

Borobudur unforgettable in family
Incredible temple! We made the tour at 3:30 pm with the climb accompanied by a very friendly and very interesting local guide. Not many people. Everything is very well organized. We have been guided before with our French speaking guide Anita and Sunar our driver of the Wahyu travel Indonesia team. Listening people and incredible kindness. Come on, it's definitely worth it!
Response from the operator: Bonjour, Audrey. Merci beaucoup d'avoir réservé cette visite avec moi. C'était un plaisir de vous accompagner. J'espère vous revoir la prochaine fois. Merci, Wahyu Travel Indonesia 🇮🇩

Why this scores 69
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Yogyakarta: Borobudur Top Access & Selogriyo Rice Terrace Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Yogyakarta.
How much does Yogyakarta: Borobudur Top Access & Selogriyo Rice Terrace Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $65 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 Yogyakarta: Borobudur Top Access & Selogriyo Rice Terrace Tour take?
+
Plan for about 8 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 Yogyakarta: Borobudur Top Access & Selogriyo Rice Terrace Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 69 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 9 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 Yogyakarta: Borobudur Top Access & Selogriyo Rice Terrace Tour?
+
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 Yogyakarta: Borobudur Top Access & Selogriyo Rice Terrace Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Yogyakarta: Borobudur Top Access & Selogriyo Rice Terrace Tour?
+
Around 3 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 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Yogyakarta: Borobudur Top Access & Selogriyo Rice Terrace Tour 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.
