Taking the train to Surabaya from Yogyakarta is easy if you know how, and in this video I will show you how to print your train ticket and travel by train, in this particular video a train to Surabaya. Want to know the best way to get around the cities to see the nearby sites of Indonesia? If you are visiting Java Indonesia, and Yogyakarta in particular, then you will want to hear my travel tips about how to get around the cities of Indonesia, how to get to all the different things to see outside the cities, what it is like to be a pedestrian in Indonesian cities such as Jakarta and Yogyakarta and what it is like to drive in Indonesia. 

After sharing some of my Indonesia travel tips including how to get around Indonesian cities, and musings of my time in Yogyakarta come with me as I take you on the train to Surabaya. If you are travelling by train in Indoensia, don't forget to print your train boarding pass before you board, this is not the same as your train ticket. You can print the boarding pass in advance of travel, or when you arrive at the train station as long as you leave plenty of time.

Surabaya is a port town on the east coast of Java island and the second largest city in Indonesia. The train journey from Yogyakarta was busy but very comfortable, passing through some beautiful scenery of showing Indonesia's countryside.

My accommodation in Surabaya is further out of the centre of Surabaya than I had expected, however the journey was easy using the Grab Taxi app. 
My accommodation was booked through AirBnB.
