Yogyakarta: Sultan Palace, Water Castle & Market Tour

Explore the rich history of Yogyakarta with an expert local guide of the majestic Yogyakarta Palace and Tamansari, the stunning water palace. Enrich your science w/ Javanese culture and architecture.
This tour begins with a pick-up at your hotel. Our driver will take you to the first destination, the Kraton (Sultan Palace).

The local guide will accompany you through the magnificent official palace of the Ngayogyakarta Hadiningrat Sultanate. You'll admire the classical Javanese architecture, steeped in philosophical meaning, the collection of historical objects, and interact directly with the courtiers who faithfully uphold traditions. If you are lucky you can enjoy gamelan music, Javanese karawitan, and traditional Yogyakarta dance performances, usually available.

Next, you'll explore the site of the former private bathing garden used by the sultan and his daughters. Highlights include the crystal-clear blue pool, the exotic underground passage (Sumur Gumuling), and the unique architecture, a blend of Javanese and Portuguese styles that is highly Instagrammable.

After exploring two historical sites in Yogyakarta, we'll conclude by experiencing the pulse of local life at a traditional market. This is where locals earn their living. There, you can sample legendary culinary delights like Jajan Pasar (traditional snacks) and Es Dawet (ice dawet), as well as typical Jogja souvenirs.
