Great informative walking tour with Vonny!
"I took this walking tour with Vonny on my first day in Surabaya. She was a treasure trove of information and introduced me to excellent food and sites which I wouldn’t have discovered on my own. All with terrific positive attitude. Thank you!"

Awesome tour with Vonny!
"If you are in Surabaya, you must book a tour with Vonny! I did a food and city sights tour and it was the best few hours I spent in Surabaya. Vonny is passionate about her city and it shows. Vonny went above and beyond and catered for my dietary needs. I came away learning a lot about the very interesting history of Surabaya, eating some delicious food and most of all, being made to feel like I was family. Thank you Vonny!!"

Authentic culinary adventure
"If you're in Surabaya and want to discover the local cuisine, look no further! Tania was a delightful guide, with boundless energy and a warm smile, she guided us through local streets and alleys, so we discovered many local dishes at places we wouldn't be able to visit on our own. What truly set her apart, was her thoughtful touches - from personalized certificates to making sure we felt like well cared for guests, by providing water and tissues to keep us comfortable. Her passion for sharing her culture's cuisine and history made for interesting conversations and an unforgettable experience. Highly recommended for anyone seeking a real taste of Surabaya's culinary heritage!"

Amazing tour!
"I had a great time at the "Culinary Kickstart Tour" with Tania (Chryssan). Not only did she introduce me to tasty food typical for Surabaya and East Java, we also had great conversations about many topics. As if that would not be enough, she even invited me to a cultural festival which happend to take place on the day of my tour. She is a very kind person and passionate about what she does. I highly recommend booking this tour for everyone who comes to Surabaya. Thank you Tania for the amazing experience!"
