Con Dito hemos podido conocer Malang de la mano de un local como no lo hubiéramos hecho nosotros solos. Han sido 3h donde hemos aprendido muchísimo, no solo de Malang sino de toda la cultura Indonesia. Gracias Por la experiencia Dito ha sido un placer.

Excellent walking tour with Dito. I learned a lot about modern Malang and Java and their history/culture. We walked from the train station and old colonial buildings, through the bird, fish and flower markets onto the picturesque, narrow, winding streets of Kayutangan, before finishing at Alun Alun (Malang Park). There was so much more to Malang than I had expected! A must-do, if you have a spare morning in the city.
