Local Bicycle Tours Jogjakarta

This bike tour is highly recommended if you want to see what the local (farming) life is like. Tour guide Ikhsan and his team also do everything to make it an unforgettable experience. We cycled through plantations for rice, red and green peppers, peanuts, aubergines and broccoli, but also past countless houses in villages where the locals continuously greet you warmly. Half fried banana and soto ayam eaten with a coconut where you could drink the juice with a straw. Afterwards we had a nice chat with Ikhsan. He speaks good English, shows a lot of interest in his customers, is smiling and likes a joke. All in all had a great afternoon!

Didn't turn up for the hotel pick up , after waiting for 30minutes contacted them via WhatsApp, took another 15minutes to get a reply stating they weren't coming due to driver illness. I get that these things happen but they should of been informing me as soon as they knew rather than me wasting my time hanging around in a hotel lobby and also having a day wasted. Plus getting a refund takes several days and isn't that straight forward. Sorry can't recommend this company particularly following the excellent standards set by other your companies I have used in Java

last week we booked the cycling tours. me and our families were enjoyed with yogyakarta local tours the local guide iksan was fantastic. he was friendly guide and experiences. the villages are beautiful. we recommended to everyone who want to visit jogjakarta to booked the cycling tours. thank you iksan yogyakarta local tours. see you again

I went on the cycling tour with the batik course....it ended up being my favorite day in Java!!! So refreshing to see another side of the island, it almost felt like a behind the scenes look at local life. Words can't express how amazing it was to get out of the city and into the beautiful countryside! The best part was Tari the tour guide, she was outstanding, best guide by far that I had in Java!!! Even though I was by myself, we had a great time the whole day, lots to talk about and lots of laughing. I was actually sad to part ways at the end of the day. I'll never forget this experience or the people I was lucky enough to meet! I only wish I found them earlier and could have done more adventures with them. Do this tour! You won't regret it.

Some cats are all kind and relaxed. It's also neat and stress-free. The village is also full of friendly people, so I want to stay for a while as well as this tour. I want to go back with the experience rather than seeing it.

This bicycle tour is a great addition to the temple tours you may have done already, as it takes you away from the crowds to a much quieter area south of Yogya. We were picked up by a driver and taken to the village Imogiri, where we were offered some nice local snacks. We then started the tour with our guide Tari. She will arrange the tour depending on the day. As we did it on Sunday, we first visited a local school, where the kids were taught the traditional music with the associated traditional instruments, a really nice experience. This was followed by a quick stop at the local market. We then cycled through fields and villages, and Tari was happy to stop everywhere so we were able to take a lot of pictures. Depending on the season, you will see either rice paddies or chilli fields and peanuts (dry season). As we were cycling along, we saw villages with traditional houses with cattle, as well as farmers on the fields, embedded in a beautiful landscape. We made a stop by a river, and had fresh coconuts, always very enjoyable. After having returned to the village, we were offered a very tasty lunch, which completed this memorable tour. Everyone we met was very friendly, and happy to answer any questions we had. This cycling tour is very relaxing, Tari will pace it to your needs. She is a very nice guide, her English skills are excellent so you can really learn a lot on this tour! We can only highly recommend this.

Nice to see life around the busy Yokjakarta! The guide knew good English and knows a lot about the neighborhood. We've seen different things and she's explained a lot. The boating / kayaking was just in one place. I think it would be more fun if you could take more of a route on the water. Furthermore, everything neatly taken care of (pick up and drop off, water, lunch) and had a lot of fun!

Yesterday my mom and I did the bicycle tour in the village outside of Yogya. We had an amazing day. First we started with the batik workshop. It was really fun to do something creative, which is also typical Indonesian. Really happy with the result. After that we had lunch at a local place near the river with really nice views. After lunch we did the bicycle tour and we also went canoeing, the nature was beautiful and all the people we came across were so friendly. Also Tari and her colleagues were amazing hosts and their english is very good. I would definitely recommend to do this while you are in yogya, you discover more of indonesia than only the cities and you get to know the locals.

We had a great day with our Guides. The local villages and nature is beautiful to see. We got all the info we wanted about Indonesia and saw a lot of the local life. We got enough tasty food and drinks, all included in the price. The batik was also Fun, a great souvenir to a fine day in Indonesia. Thank you!

We had a lovely morning! Perfect logistics (from pick-up and drop-off from hotel to moving from batik to cycle starting point on the back of motorcycle). Snacks, mineral water and lunch included. Great program with batik making (harder than it looks but so much fun!) and cycling around Imogiri village and making stops at home factory, library under bridge, crop fields and so on. Only disadvantages were that our driver in the morning was half an hour late and that they urged us to write a positive Tripadvisor review (I don't mind writing one because I was really content with the tour, but the persuasion to do so feels off). Nevertheless, I would certainly recommend this tour! Thanks Tari and other staff!
