Ullen Sentalu Museum is closed on Mondays. Please avoid booking this tour on Mondays or contact us for an alternative itinerary (e.g., Merapi + Lava Tour + traditional village experience).\
Prambanan Temple upper courtyard is partially closed on Mondays. Visitors can still enter the complex and walk around, but access to climb the central temples may be restricted. Nearby temples such as Candi Sewu remain open and are a great alternative.
