Excellent experience in Borobudur and Prambanan

We did business with Wahyu Travel Indonesia to make Borobudur and Prambanan Temples. Communications with Wahyu are very good and are done in both French and English impecably. Utama Wijava was our guide. We liked it so much that we asked for its services for 2 more days. He is a thoughtful, polite guide/driver with excellent driving. We were able to discuss with him about Indonesian culture and habits in general. He's a very well-educated person. We highly recommend this agency and guide. Thank you Wahyu and Utama.

Exploring the diverse riches around Yogyakarta

Pak Gito was our driver for two day trips: Borobudur and Prambanan one day, the Mt Merapi countryside dnd jungle the next, He was very friendly, knowledgeable and helpful every way, including allowing us to sample local good crops along the way (snake fruits), and helping us with the purchase of our train ticket for the next keg of our journey. I highly recommend Wahyu travel for their local knowledge dnd network of local contacts to facilitate a totally genuine travel experience.

An amazing day with Sugito

We had a great day on this tour. We were met at our hotel by our guide Sugito. He was an amazing wealth of knowledge and took very good care of us. He went out of his way to show us extra points of interest, such as picking salak fruit, and showing us the damage areas from the last eruption of Merapi. We highly recommend this tour and asking specifically for Sugito as your guide.
