I joined this sunrise tour with my boyfriend, and it was such a beautiful experience. Watching the sun rise behind Borobudur from Punthuk Setumbu felt magical, and the view was worth waking up so early. The stop at the Chicken Church was quirky and fun, adding a unique touch to the trip. The only thing that kept it from being perfect was the crowd at the viewpoint, which made it a little less peaceful. Still, sharing this moment together made it unforgettable, and I’d recommend it to couples looking for something romantic yet adventurous in Yogyakarta.
Watching the sunrise together over Borobudur was magical, with golden light spreading across the valley. The Chicken Church visit added a unique twist, and we enjoyed exploring its history. The guide was attentive, and the pace was comfortable. It was a beautiful way to spend the morning together. Absolutely 5 stars.
Loved this sunrise trip! The view of Borobudur from Punthuk Setumbu was breathtaking misty, peaceful, and so photogenic. The Chicken Church was fun to visit, with great stories and amazing views from the top. The ride from Yogyakarta was comfortable, and the guide made everything easy. It was a bit crowded at sunrise, but that didn’t take away from the experience. Highly recommend this tour if you want something special near Borobudur.
Thank you for sharing your experience! We’re glad you enjoyed the sunrise at Punthuk Setumbu and the unique visit to the Chicken Church.
