Hati Tour and Transport · Yogyakarta
One driver-guide takes you to Borobudur for the climb, then on to Prambanan. The title says sunrise, but the listing doesn't say where you watch it, so ask the operator before you book.
Hati Tour and Transport also runs the VIP sunrise climb, and guests on both listings name the same driver-guide, Noe. This one is the full day: about an hour to Borobudur, a guided visit of 2.5 hours, about 75 minutes across to Prambanan, two hours there, and 40 minutes home. It ends around 5 to 6 p.m., or around 12:30 on the sunrise version.
Here's the gap. The title promises a sunrise climb, yet the page does not say where the sunrise is watched. That matters: a hill sunrise followed by the 08:30 climb, and the official 04:00 slot on the temple itself, are two different mornings with different tickets. Before booking, message the operator and ask where you'll stand at dawn and whether the sunrise ticket is included.
Tickets are the other thing to check. The Borobudur climb-up and Prambanan tickets come with the all-inclusive option only. Lunch at a restaurant is mentioned, but the listing doesn't make clear whether it's covered. The trip runs rain or shine, the temple order may be reversed, and KITAS or student card holders should tell the operator, since residents can pay the domestic rate.
