Explore the peaceful countryside around Borobudur Temple on a guided cycling tour. Ride through quiet village roads, meet local people, and experience authentic Javanese life in a beautiful rural setting.

Start your morning by meeting your guide at the main gate of Borobudur Temple. If you're staying nearby, free hotel pick-up is available on request. Your friendly, English-speaking guide will welcome you and help you get ready for the ride.

Begin your tour by cycling through scenic rice fields, traditional villages, and lush landscapes. The route is flat and easy, perfect for beginners and all ages. Along the way, stop often to take photos, interact with locals, and enjoy the peaceful surroundings of the Borobudur countryside.

Your first stop is a small home industry where coconut sugar is made from coconut sap. Watch the traditional cooking process and meet the family behind this sweet local product. Then, continue to a nearby tofu-making workshop. Here, you’ll see how fresh tofu is produced daily using simple tools and time-honored techniques.

Next, visit a pottery village, where a skilled artisan will guide you through shaping clay by hand. It's a hands-on and fun experience—no prior experience needed. You’ll get to try making your own pottery piece and learn how these crafts support the local community.

To end the tour, visit a batik workshop where you'll learn about the ancient wax-resist dyeing technique. Instead of just watching, you’ll create your own batik art to take home—a special handmade souvenir from your journey.

Throughout the experience, your guide will share stories about Javanese culture, daily life, and local traditions.
