Very exciting! - Very exciting. The 3 more hours are really worth it. We were invited to places that were anti-mainstream and we learned a lot about the history of Jogja. Special thanks to Moana, Sis Yulvian and Sis Reza.

Fantastic tour - The tour was really great. We were with a nice group and two top guides. Alfat and Reiza made the tour even more fun. They gave very good explanations (in English) and knew a lot about the history. The bikes were very good and the route was fun. You come to places that you would not easily go to yourself. Highly recommended!

Monggo! Such a fun way to explore Jogja - We had such a memorable experience with our guides, Alfat and Nurdin. Cycling through the rabbit warren of tiny streets within the old palace walls gave us a real glimpse into how the local residents live. We also got to see places that we would never have seen had we not joined the tour such as the Chinese temple. Although we weren't lucky with the weather, it didn't stop us from having lots of fun. I'd definitely recommend this trip for older children. My youngest who was 9 was perfectly fine and I felt reassured that the guides took our safety very seriously, particularly on the roads. I would definitely book another tour with Moana!

Fun trip - The trip was fun and enjoyable, the guide, Mas Vian, was also very informative and helpful. 3 hours of fun. If possible, make the bicycle saddle more comfortable for 3 hours of cycling. Thank you, moana 😊

Truly hidden gems - In was my second time already joining moana and this time in jogja and must say, it was incredible once again. The tour is really well thought through and the road captain did an amazing job guiding us through the ancient parts of jogja. Even after staying in jogja long time I came to places entirely new to me! Thank you so much for this amazing trip! Not spoiling to much now, just try it!

Knowledgeable tour guides and lots of interesting insights! - I never joined a cycling tour before but this first one sets the bar so high! We were warmly greeted by our tour leader (Nurdin) and his friend (Alfa) in the morning. After setting up our bikes & gears, we cycled through the bustling city of Jogja and learned so much about the city. The MOANA team was very knowledgeable and were able to answer all questions that we have, shared with us about many fun facts & we learned about the Javanese scripts. Me and my friends loved the experience and would definitely do this again when we visit Jogja!
