If you are in Surabaya you must book this tour! My guides Ryan and Dea went above and beyond to make this a memorable tour, which it absolutely was. They are really passionate about their culture and history and it shows. I came away learning a lot about the history of the Majapahit period and culture of the area and Indonesia, visiting incredible temples and interesting museums. They were both so happy to answer all my many questions.
