The gyy that helped us was a very nice and helpfull guy. His english was good. There is a coffee shop at the back with some very good coffee. One of us isn't artsy at all but with the help of the guide he still managed to make a good batik painting. Overal a very nice experience that we will not forget.

We would like to show our great appreciation for Mr Agung Nobel who was our driver and guide for those few days we had spent in Indonesia. Let's start with the fact, that Mr Agung's english was excellent. We had no troubles with communication at all! What is more, we really enjoyed our conversations, jokes and we had a really great time together. He's very polite, open, empathic, helful and funny person! Mr Agung was very focused on our needs and our safety. Thanks to Mr Agung we had lovely and best time we could ever had. Thank you sooo much! A.N. we wish you all the best! Take care friend! We have to also mantion that the car we were traveling was big and comfortable with plenty legroom, air condition and a big trunk for luggage and backpacks. Rafał & Aleksandra from Polandia

We had an exceptional experience on the two-day tour of Yogyakarta, thanks to our fantastic guide, Agung (AG). From start to finish, AG's positive energy and enthusiasm made the trip truly memorable. He provided insightful and practical tips that enhanced our exploration, and his willingness to go the extra mile did not go unnoticed. Whether it was sharing hidden gems or ensuring we were comfortable, Agung's dedication was evident. His passion for Yogyakarta and his commitment to our experience made this tour outstanding. Highly recommended!

We really enjoyed this class, from catching our own fish to preparing and eating a very delicious fried noodles along with the steamed and grilled fish. We also walked through the neighbourhood, which really gave an impression of the self-sufficiency that the local people have. This was nice to see. All in all we really enjoyed this cooking class! :)

Best thing we've done in Java so far! The hosts were lovely and made the morning really enjoyable. The fishing was fun followed by a walk around the rice fields and community garden. It was great knowing all the ingredients were grown locally and the meal was 10/10. We were even introduced to Batik art while waiting and amazing to watch the process in action.

We deden de Tempeltour in Yogyakarta bij zonsopgang. De dag was goed georganiseerd en nergens zat een verborgen prijs. De driver sprak goed Engels en gaf ons een goed gevoel. Hij gaf ons met veel plezier uitleg over zijn land: Indonesië. Hij zorgde ook steeds voor de nodige drankjes (water). Wat was het een fijne dag zonder stress, want alles was tot in de puntjes verzorgd. BEDANKT!

This was a really great experience. Myself, my wife and our 10 year old daughter did the course and were so happy with the results. They are so skilled and even made my art look good, even though I am very bad. The people running the experience were so kind and fun. We absolutely loved it. Would recommend very highly.

The experience was absolutely amazing. You get to learn the entire batik technique from start to finish, and the instructors make it so much fun and super easy to follow. Their enthusiasm and passion really made the whole thing special, and I walked away not just with a cool batik design but also a real appreciation for it, all thanks to how awesome they were throughout the process.
