Hi there! Nice to meet you

Tini

"Borobudur and Prambanan temples are two most famous UNESCO sites in Indonesia built over 1200 years ago. As a moslem I am very proud of that monuments. Borobudur is a Buddhist temple and Prambanan is Hindu one. This is what makes Indonesia very colorful, high tolerant and we all live side by side in harmony. I love introducing Indonesia to travelers, especially about Java, specifically about the temples, the history and the locals.

Beside organizing tour to Borobudur and Prambanan I also do tailor made tour.

I will be more than happy to answer your inquiries about Indonesia."

Such a great day with Tini and her driver. Tini made the day very special both in terms of sharing her extensive knowledge of the sites, and as well, helping us better understand life in Java and Yogyakarta specifically. Fun to be with, she also made an excellent selection for a local late lunch stop. On top of that she made sure our every needs were met - a stop at a beautiful batik shop? No problem. It was a full day indeed and the temples were made to come live by Tini's stories of tales they told or had been handed down generation to generation. This all within a context of a volcanic landscape that interwines with history. Thank you Tini.Tini rocks

Tini was not available, so we had our tour with Gunarto. Excellent planing, very much on time even if our hotel was far from the temples. Gunarto is very knowledgeable about the temples and history, and he is also very friendly so we could use the transit time to learn even more form Yogyakarta. We really enjoyed the experience and recommend it!! Terima kasih!

Tini was very professional. Here knowledge on the history of the surrounding area and Indonesia as a whole was very in-depth. I can't remember her not knowing the answer to any question I asked. She was excellent....... Tini The Treasure

Tini is a super friendly and patient guide. She knows a lot of stories from the Hindu and Bhuddist religion. She does everything in a nice tempo, not hurrying so you have a lot of time to see and ask what you want. Strongly recommend her!!Superbe storyteller

We went on a day trip with Tini and her driver to Prambanan in the morning Borobudur in the afternoon. Communication in the booking process went smoothly. The tour was a fantastic experience. Tini is a kind, professional guide who told us fascinating stories about (the history of) Java and the temples we visited. She takes great photographs as well, knows the perfect spots for group pictures. Would highly recommend her and her driver to anyone.

We took a one-day tour to Borobudur and Prambanan temples with Tini. She was friendly and easy to talk to. She picked us up at Yogyakarta airport and dropped us off at our hotel afterward. Adjusting the pickup time was simple. Tini shared a lot of interesting facts about the temples and Indonesia. We had a nice lunch at a local restaurant. The temples were simply incredible. Highly recommend!Excellent tour
