• 5Surabaya tour from Cruise Terminal

  Excellent tour from cruise terminal. Efficient pickup with friendly, informative driver guide in clean mini van with decent a/c. Broad range of cultural experiences including puppet show participation! Decent lunch included with thoroughly enjoyable excursion. Would recommend.

• 5Great tour by a greater guide

  We lucked out with Nita, our guide. She was great! Her English is excellent, all 8 of us could hear her clearly, both in the (spacious) van and in busy markets. She is a perfect combination of informative, sharing a brief history, personal, funny and very knowledgeable. We went with East Journey Travel's suggestions for a day tour and their itinerary was well thought out. [Tip: Although we didn't go to Mt Bromo, she'd be a great guide since she studied volcanology at university. ] Nita contacted me prior to the tour, which was reassuring. The pick up at our hotel was on time. Nita was waiting for us in the lobby. The clean Toyota van was spacious for all 8 of us, plus the guide and driver. Lunch was included and it was excellent, with a variety of dishes: 3 kinds of fish, 3 kinds of vegetables, chicken soup, fried veg rice, ice tea. We were all stuffed, unable to eat any more with food left on the table. The restaurant (including the WCs) was clean and attractive. I can't say enough positives about Nita - she made the day!

• 5Excellent Introduction to Surabaya

  Very nice introduction to Surabaya. Nita is very knowledgeable about the city and its history. She included some “local color” stops along with the highlights. She was also flexible in rearranging the schedule as needed to get in all of the stops. If you want to explore Surabaya (recommended), this tour is a great way to do it (highly recommended)

• 5Enjoyable 1day Surabaya city tour with Nita

  An excellent 1 day city tour with Nita, our personable Volcanologist guide who was informative, fun and knowledgeable. Had unique photo ideas at every location. Gavye plenty of fun facts, history and legends surrounding Surabaya that made the tour all the more interesting. All in all an enjoyable experience that covered good ground but that we could do at our own pace.

• 5Great way to see Surabaya’s highlights in ~ 5-6 hrs.

  We had a great time with Budi, our tour guide, and Anom, our driver. Budi was knowledgable about Surabaya’s history. He was good in keeping time to ensure we won’t miss our ship.

• 5Excellent tour you are gonna love

  This was an interesting tour. Our guide, Salsa was outstanding and the driver made us feel safe. Salsa is knowledgable and made the day fun with lots of small surprises along the way like taking a motorized rickshaw through China town and treating us to a delish fresh fish lunch at a local restaurant.

About Surabaya

Surabaya is the capital of East Java and Indonesia's second city, a port of Dutch colonial buildings, heroes' monuments, mosques and street food.

Surabaya spreads along the Kali Mas river near the northern coast of East Java, a port city that grew under Dutch rule and is known as the City of Heroes for the battle fought here in November 1945 during the struggle for independence. The Heroes' Monument, a tall concrete obelisk, and the museum below it recall that fight, and Heroes' Day is marked on 10 November. Legend says the name comes from sura and baya, the shark and crocodile on the city's emblem.
