Private Half-Day Prambanan Tour by Bike

Yogyakarta is the cultural hub of Indonesia. Home to astonishing temples and priceless architecture monuments, experience the artistic and bustling life of the city. Surrounding these temples is plenty to see, do and admire and even better when you’re cycling around the Prambanan Temple.

Enjoy a morning pickup from your hotel in Yogyakarta and a short drive will bring you to the main starting point of this great, half-day cycling experience. During a short safety briefing, your bicycle will be set for a comfortable 2.5 hour ride through the local landscape, following paths and roads where cars not always are able to drive. This will be an exploration of what surrounds the Prambanan Temple, Indonesia’s largest, and one of the most beautiful, Hindu temple complexes in Indonesia. Built in the 10th century, today, after extensive restoration projects, only the three main temples, and three of the smaller temples, are standing.

With plenty of stops, your guide will tell you not only about the importance of the temple but also highlight what makes this region so interesting. You’ll gain a deeper respect and understanding for farmers and local villagers on how they’re making a living by cultivating and irrigating the land in the traditional way, planting, tending and harvesting, often only done by hand. Children often play around the lands where the parents are tending to their crop which offers pleasant scenery while you cycle around. A stop at the Boko Temple is included; amazing views await once you reach the top of the hill where coconut trees, rice paddy fields and the green lands dominate the landscape up to the horizon.

From the moment you sit comfortably on your bike saddle until we reach the final stop where you will be brought back to your hotel.
