Overview

This full-day bus and jeep tour lasts about 12 hours and covers three major heritage sites in Yogyakarta. The trip begins with a 4:00 AM pickup to Setumbu Hill, where guests spend around two hours watching the sunrise over Borobudur Temple, with views of Merbabu and Merapi volcanoes as the mist lifts from the terraced fields. After sunrise, the group travels to Borobudur Temple itself for a two-hour visit, including a ticket to climb to the top of the largest Buddhist monument in the world. Next, the tour continues with a one-hour Jeep ride around Merapi Volcano, known as one of the world’s most active volcanoes. The final stop is at Prambanan Temples for two hours, exploring the largest Hindu temple compound in Indonesia, dedicated to Shiva and featuring temples decorated with Ramayana reliefs and shrines for the three Hindu gods Shiva, Vishnu, and Brahma, as well as their animal attendants. The tour includes entrance tickets, a driver who speaks English and acts as a guide, air-conditioned transportation, Jeep rental for the Merapi visit, and parking fees. Lunch and dinner are not included, nor is a local guide at Prambanan Temple. There are three booking options: VIP sunrise on top of Borobudur Temple with a 3:00 AM pickup (limited availability), sunrise from Setumbu Hill, or no sunrise viewing. The operator guarantees all guests will have a ticket to climb Borobudur Temple. On Mondays, access to Prambanan is limited to the temple grounds only.
