Price calculated. Change the date or destination if you like.
Getting from Yogyakarta Airport (YIA) to Prambanan Temple takes about 55 min by car on an empty road (55–65 min in heavy traffic) over 60 km via 7 and 17. Our private transfer costs €40 for a car with 1–3 passengers or €60 for a van with 4–8 — the vehicle price you see is the price you pay at booking.
On arrival: The driver waits in the arrival hall of Yogyakarta International Airport, just past the arrival exit after baggage claim (and immigration and customs on international flights), holding a sign with your name. If the flight is late, the driver adjusts to the real landing time; 60 minutes of waiting are included and help with the luggage is part of the service.
Prambanan is the largest Hindu temple complex in Java, built in the ninth century and listed by UNESCO together with Borobudur, on the border of Sleman regency and Central Java about 17 km east of central Yogyakarta. From the airport the road follows Jalan Raya Wates into the city, joins the ring road and leaves along the Jogja to Solo road past the old Adisutjipto airport and Kalasan. The distance is about 60 km and the drive takes roughly 1 to 1.5 hours, longer when the ring road is busy.
The main temple park, with its three tall shrines to Shiva, Brahma and Vishnu, is entered from the visitor area just off the Jogja to Solo road, and cars stop in the parking areas. Within the same park lie the Buddhist Sewu temple and smaller shrines, while the twin Plaosan temples are about 2 km north-east. The Ratu Boko archaeological site sits on a hill about 3 km south, and the Ramayana ballet is staged at the open-air theatre west of the main temple. A few hotels lie along the main road towards Kalasan.
Public transport: The airport lists the Railink airport train (KA Bandara YIA) from the airport station via Wates to Yogyakarta Tugu station in the city centre, a 39-minute journey; the airport lists no direct public transport to Prambanan, which lies about 17 km east of the city centre.
