Solo Private Tours

Solo (or Surakarta) in Java is at the epicenter of the famous island’s identity and traditions! Shying away from the desire to integrate into Westernised ways, the city has retained much of its original character. The seat of the former Javanese monarchy and King Pakubuwono XIII, Solo boasts a regal and proud character even though its heritage has not been perfectly preserved. Today, it is the city’s reputed music and dance academies that attract students and teachers from around the country, and who celebrate traditional performing acts with vigour. If you appreciate handicrafts then this is also an ideal location for you to visit, as Solo’s regional batiks are an international speciality.
