Free walking tours in Yogyakarta

Ainun was a lovely and friendly guide who was knowledgeable about the area and gave a great tour. I really enjoyed my experience and would recommend him to other travellers!

This has to be one of the top guided walks ever. Tara is very well versed about his city and can have conversations with you about it's history, culture and everything in between. The route was great with enough stops for exploring food, sites and culture. I had done a fair bit of reading about the history and culture and yet most information Tara shared was insightful. I highly recommend doing this walk at the start of your trip in jogja so you know where you want to hangout and what you should be definitely trying in your time there.

Very nice guy and great tour of Yogyakarta’s key monuments and street food

We had a great time with our guide on this tour!! Can’t properly remember his name, sorry! But I guess it was Tara? A student from Aerospace University, and a wonderful host! It was just the two of us, so we had a private tour with a lot of interesting walks, places and even snacking. Was genuinely so much fun with him, and he even had a gift for us, so unexpectedly nice, so thankful! 100% recommend him!

This is an amazing tour and such a great way to learn about Yogyakarta! Ainun was a great guide who is very passionate about Jogja. I highly recommend!

I had the best time on my walking tour with Tara! He took me to see many important sites, showed me how batik is made, gave the me the chance to try delicious foods and so much more! He was very knowledgeable and fun! His tour was the best introduction to Yogyakarta I could have hoped for- thank you Tara!

I had a very pleasant private tour with Buspa through Yogya. Private because I was the only visitor attending. Nevertheless, Buspa gave me the full tour, fueled me interesting facts and stories of Yogyakarta and visited with me some shops where I tried some local snacks and drinks (the black jamu was an experience 🤣). What I liked most about the tour was that Buspa was very open to answer all my questions and that she was very curious about my own culture, hence we ended up having a great conversation throughout the tour and it felt like I was doing it with a friend rather than a stranger. All in all 11/10, can recommend and thank you very much again. 👋🏻🙂

Great tour that takes you to the most important places in Yogyakarta.

The tour guide is responsive. But she couldn't make it and send a replacement, Puspa whom I met earlier in the morning. It was such a nice surprise bcs she is very sweet & pleasant. We tried some snacks and went to angkringan. But the highlight was the Lumpia, it was very good.

I really enjoy the tour. Eventho it was drizzling, but the tour guide is professional and he still showed up. The quality of information he provided not just about Mataram kingdom and royals, but also Javanese culture & hostory from a different era is superb. He's also very joyful and pleasant person. Overall, it improves my stay here in Jogja

Puspa was an excellent guide! She gave us a great insight into Yogyakarta’s culture, food and people, with personal touches talking about her friends and family. She was professional, funny and also brought us water and an umbrella (needed in the storm we had!). She answered any questions we had about Indonesia or Jogya with ease and her English was also very good. 100% recommend taking this tour and Puspa as a guide!

The tour was super informative. We had good conversation as well, which made me feel as I explore the city with a good friend - thank you Labib🙏🏽

Puspa was so sweet, knowledgeable & professional. I have minimal understanding in Javanese culture & Jogjakarta history. But she explained it very well and now I know more not just about the Malioboro street, but also the history behind it.

I joined the city walk tour with Tara, and was wonderful experience! He’s very knowledgeable about Yogyakarta and shared lots of interesting local stories. What impressed me most was his kindness and authenticity , I felt like I was exploring the city with a friend rather than just a guide. Highly recommended for anyone who wants to discover the real Yogyakarta!

Really interesting and varied tour of the main attractions in Yogyakarta City. It lasted 2 and a quarter hours, but isn't an overly long tour distance wise. We stopped at various historic sites as well as some shopping stores/markets etc. This added to the variety and interest.

I had a wonderful tour with Surya in Jakarta! He was very patient, kind, and extremely professional. Surya explained many aspects of religion and daily life in the city in a clear and interesting way, which made the experience meaningful and enjoyable!

This was one of the best walking tours ever. It was just me and the guide Tara. He gave me a very good experience. There were many informations given on all the history and current situation in and about Yogyakarta. We also had a dip into the local craftsmenship and tried some local snacks and drinks. Furthermore we had a wonderful conversation the whole time through the tour and I felt like a friend. If you think about it - book the tour! I can highly recommend it!! Thanks for having me <3

Great tour. We had an amazing experience on the City and Culinary Tour with Tara! From the very beginning, warm, engaging, and incredibly knowledgeable about Yogyakarta’s food, history and culture. Took us through hidden gems we would never have found on our own and shared fascinating stories.

Die Walking Tour mit Eveline war sehr spannend und informativ! Wir haben enorm viel über die Geschichte Yogyakartas gelernt, haben historisch wichtige Orte besucht, Tipps für lokale, kulinarische Spezialitäten erhalten und Handwerkstätten besucht. Wir können die Walking Tour mit Eveline und ihrem Team von ganzem Herzen weiterempfehlen!

The trip was full of joy and knowledge. As a local tourist I learnt a lot of new things from mas Tara. His friendly and easy going behaviour made the tour even enjoyable. Good luck mas Tara!

We add a lot of fun with our guide Pushpa. Good information presented along the way about Yogyakarta. She also gave us a lot of info about various food items and we got to sample some. She was fun and we add good conversation

Wir hatten Spaß, Ainun war sehr nett und hat uns kulinarisch viel gezeigt und viel erzählt.

Taking Ainun’s tour was a wonderful and memorable experience. It felt like walking with a friend who’s showing you around his hometown. Couldn’t recommend it more!

The tour was really informative and not just the typical stops. Really interesting. Thank you for the tour.

This tour was super interesting and it was good to learn about / explore a more hidden part of Yogyakarta. The tour involved stop at a market too where you could buy some Indonesian snacks. Would definitely recommend this tour!
