Interesting excursion !
We missed the meeting point as it was hectic with people disembarking. Do not go out of terminal gates, the company are just outside the terminal doors holding your name.
The guide was very informative and our minibus only had 4 guests which was nice and comfortable.
Interesting day but tiring.
Included extras which wasnt expecting ( the motorbike rickshaw you took your life in your hands)
The coffee and cake at the swanky hotel was delicious and included in the price and gratifying seeing about 70 other cruisers all arrive at the same time at the same hotel to know we had very personal service. The points of interest were varied. The smells even more so......especially at the market . Not good.
Generally a longer day than we actually wanted but very good guide with heaps of knowledge.

Wow! Amazing day!!!
Are private tour and guide Laila was amazing!!
We had a driver and a tour guide. We were up close and personal and hit so many sites that the big tour buses can’t get to.
We travel all over the world and you various tours. We’re on a Viking cruise and the included tours are not rated high. Therefore, we decided to book a tour on our own that was private.
if I could give six stars for this tour, I definitely would. Do not hesitate to book it. You come all this way. Do the private tour. We enjoyed it so much and very memorable!!!
Operator response
Thank you for your wonderful review!
We would just like to share a small clarification for future guests that this tour is actually a shared tour for same cruise passengers. However, on the date tour there were no other participants, so it became a private experience.
We always keep our commitment to run the tour even with only 1–2 guests.
Thank you again for your kind recommendation!

Our Day in Surabaya
Our guide was very knowledgeable. We learned a lot about the history, culture and everyday life in Indonesia. Our guide showed us local plants and spices and shared how he uses those in cooking for his family. We highly recommend this tour.

A great day out in Surabaya
I was with my sister and brother in law and our tour leader was Nita. She gave us a brilliant day out from our cruise ship. We visited a spice market, a mosque, and two Chinese temples. We travelled in a bicycle rickshaw and released a tiny finch into the sky over the sea. Nita answered our questions but didn’t flood us with information. Altogether it was a most memorable day.

Insights into life in Surabaya
Very local. Something you could not do by yourself. It provided insight into how people live and work. The tour guide was excellent and added her own personal experiences. I highly recommend this tour if you want to know what it is like to be here rather than just see the sights.
