What To Expect
Candi Wringinlawang
Imposing red brick 50-foot-high gates remaining from a 14th to 15th century. Here, we will bring you to have a closer look and explore the structure of this site that makes historian describe this as a gate rather than a temple.
Once believed to be the crematorium for the deceased king, this red brick temple was built even before Majapahit was existed. As the name suggested, this place is sacred place and still used during Majapahit period. That's why we will bring you here to explore why theory of this place being the crematorium was mostly false.

5.00Ryan was waiting for us as we exited the cruise terminal. He was such a wonderful driver and guide, funny, knowledgeable, and willing to adapt to anything we wanted to do. His spoke excellent English which made our trip even more enjoyable. He drove my wife and me in an very nice, almost new SUV which made the trip very comfortable and allowed easy conversation between us all.

5.00From pick up to drop off the trip went very smoothly. Expert driving through the traffic, even finding a rat run to avoid a bad jam caused by a broken down lorry. The religious sites and museums were beautiful and close together. The guide was humorous with excellent English ,with a depth of knowledge of the various religions.
Great tour of temples

5.00We had a fantastic half day tour with Ryan. He was on time and easy to find at port. We went to 4 different Candi temples which were very nice. Highlight was meeting a large group of school children at one of them. Highly recommended Ryan.

5.00We really enjoyed this tour of sites from the Majahapit Empire. Our guide Fajar and driver Rudy picked us up on time from the cruise terminal. Fajar was friendly, knowledgeable, and his English was excellent. He gave us a detailed explanation of each site and was able to answer all of our questions. The sites we visited were all beautifully manicured and well-maintained. Our driver Rudy was a good driver and got us back to the port in plenty of time.

5.00Our driver/guide, Nael, was punctual and knowledgeable and provided a wealth of fascinating information—not only about the tour locations but also about Indonesia’s culture, customs, and traditions. Nael was patient and never rushed us, giving us plenty of time to explore and fully enjoy each site. The thoughtful gesture of receiving a small leather pouch from the company was much appreciated and added a nice personal touch to the experience.
Great Tour and Great Guide

5.00This tour was a great introduction to the ancient history of Indonesia. Visiting the archeological ruins provided a foundation for understanding the evolution of architecture styles in the various regions of the country. Ryan was an outstanding guide and teacher. He was very conscientious in making sure we were comfortable and was able to answer all questions. He was especially helpful for my friend who has some mobility issues. We were lucky enough to also get Ryan the next day when we visited Mt. Bromo. I highly recommend TrippyTrip Tour company!
