Unsere Tour hat Tara geführt. Wir waren mit 2 kleinen Kindern unterwegs und Tara ist super auf die beiden Kids eingegangen. Hat uns allen sehr viel Spaß gemacht, sehr informativ und kurzweilig. Vielen Dank auch für die Informationen über die Tour hinaus!!!

Wenda did a great tour. First of all, I really appreciated her flexibility regarding the starting time and route. She provided a lot of interesting information about local life, history, politics and society. Moreover, it was not a simple presentation of facts but rather a conversation, which created a nice atmosphere. I can really recommend her tours (she also offers individually adapted tours to different places).

Tara was a really fab guide, showing us some of the highlights around Yogya. He had plenty to talk about, giving us plenty of info, answered every question we had, really great and humorous personality. I got to get a really good sense of the city and following some of Tara’s recommendations, got to see a couple of extra cool stuff. Thanks for a really memorable and positive experience!

Wenda était une superbe guide ! Attentionnée, elle nous a permis d’apprendre sur l’histoire indonésienne, yogja mais aussi sur la culture locale par son prisme. On a l’impression d’etre avec une amie qui nous en apprends plus sur sa ville et son pays, on a adore et on recommande!

Tara was so good that I booked his tours twice! He was really approachable and made it really easy to ask questions and was able to give a great overview of the city and major sights would still being able to introduce you to all the cool spots that every tourist should know. I also like that he is honest and sincere about what he can or could not answer and will make an effort to find things out for my questions. Really recommend him for yours to know Yogyakarta better!

I was the only one, so I had a private tour. The guide was friendly and passionate nonetheless. I enjoyed the off-the-beaten path tour of Jogja and I would recommend it to people who stay longer in the city.

We spent the morning with Wenda, learning about Batik, the Sultane Palace and the Waterpalace. It was a great way to get situated in Yogyakarta and learn more about the city, its culture and its people. Wenda was a lovely guide, We‘d definitely recommend it!

A really great walking tour. Tara makes the walk enjoyable and interesting. His explanations make everything easy to understand. It was nice to have tea/coffee between the walk and chat with other participants. He is very cheerful and a very nice guy! I recommend this tour very much!

Wenda was an outstanding guide on our Yogyakarta walking tour today! Her deep knowledge of Javanese culture, history, and local life brought every corner of the city to life. Told much about the Sultan dynasty of ten generations, showed us different sections of the palace Sultans court room, entertainment, his different museums, shadow puppets show with nice explanations. She was friendly, patient, and passionate, sharing hidden gems and fascinating stories we'd never have found alone. She happily answered all our questions and even gave great food recommendations. The pace was perfect, and we felt safe and welcomed throughout. If you want an authentic, insightful, and memorable Yogyakarta experience, Wenda is the guide to book. Highly recommended—terima kasih!

Cogimos el free tour con Wenda. Todo un acierto. Ella es un encanto, dimos un agradable paseo conociendo rincones y los principales monumentos a visitar. Se nos hizo muy ameno y la verdad que fue la mejor forma de entender bien lo que visitábamos. Hablan muy buen inglés. Además nos llevamos el recuerdo de haberla conocido, igual que a Tara, porque son los mejores!! ❤️ Recomendable 100%

We did the tour with Wenda. She is a really lovely and funny guide. We had a lot of fun together! During the tour she told us a lot about the history, the culture, traditions and the royal families. We could ask any questions we had and she explained everything clear! I would everyone recommend to go on a tour with Wenda!

We cannot properly describe how amazing this tour was! It was just the three of us, and Tara showed us around for more than five hours! It felt more like taking a stroll with a friend—in the best possible way! We got to learn sooo much about the city, the culture, and the history, and we tried so many amazing foods. Tara also took so many beautiful pictures of us and the sights we saw! We got an endless amount of not only really good recommendations, but Tara also connected us with what felt like everyone in the city to help us get the best deals!! We really can’t stress enough how amazing this tour was! Out of all the free walking tours we’ve done so far, this one especially stood out. If you have the chance to do any tour with Tara, it is going to be so worth it! Thank you again, Tara—it was a blast! :)

Tara game a very informative and personalized 3 1/2 hour long tour. It was only me and one other couple, so we were able to ask lots of questions and learn new things about the culture, clothes, drinks, etc. The guide, Tara, was very knowledgeable and his English was excellent, very easy to understand. I would recommend to anyone visiting Yogyakarta to get an introduction to the city!

Yogyakarta Royal Heritage and History Walking Tour

The tour with Tara was the perfect start to explore Yogya. He introduced us to local Batik and gave us some useful tips for spotting the original stuff. It was also great to have someone explaining the Sultan and Water Palace. His English was great and we got the chance to try some food and drinks with him. We would definitely recommend the tour with him.
