Reviews from guests about our tours and locals
"My partner and I really enjoyed our tour with Yula and would highly recommend her to anyone looking to come to this part of Java. Whichever tour you want to book, or if you want to do something / see something not included in any described tour I am confident Yula could make it happen. It was fascinating to hear about the history of Jogja, it is so much better receiving this information from a well informed local, who can give you the facts and also her own perspective, rather than just reading about it online. It wasn’t just the main sites on our itinerary that made our tour special, it was the smaller places and interactions we stumbled upon along the way. Yula was an expert at breaking the ice and introducing us to locals who we encountered doing interesting things (crafting in workshops / selling produce etc). We learned so much by speaking to them via Yula and really felt like we could connect with locals in a way we could never do on our own. I think the best thing about the tour was I felt much more confident in Jogja after spending time with Yula. She helped break the ice I sometimes feel in a new place. Highly recommend. You will finish a tour with Yula feeling well informed and more confident. "
"Yula provided a great introduction to the history of Yogyakarta. She was very knowledgeable, interesting and great at expressing herself in English. Not only was Yula great at making ancient events come alive but also very informative about contemporary life. She was terrific company, charming and funny too! Five stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️"
"We had two tours with Yula - the streetfood tour as well as the full coverage city tour - both of which were simply exceptional. A big THANK YOU once more to Yula who took such incredible care of us. We learned and saw so much. Yula is truly a gem of a person, very knowledgeable and fun to be with - we had such a fantastic time together and were so sad when we had to say goodbye. We can’t recommend Yula highly enough to explore the sights and tastes of Yogyakarta with😊"
"We asked Yula to take us to off the beaten path sites, fun neighborhoods and local markets. She did all that and more. Very knowledgeable, good communicator and passionate about her city of Yogyakarta, Yula introduced us to new foods, a great handmade silver shop, a beautiful mosque and a quiet cafe for a much needed Coffee Aren!. We would hire her again. "
"Thank you, Yulaikha! for a wonderful day in Yogyakarta. It was a great introduction to our trip around Indonesia. We learnt a lot about the city, as well as trying various street foods that we would never have tried on our own😉. We cannot recommend your Heritage and Food Tour enough. Combining the two tours was perfect for us. 😍. "
"We had a wonderful trip and are very grateful to Yula for her friendly and open manner. We would travel with her again through the city and history of Java."
"We had an excellent tour through Yogja city. With the most touristic places; the kraton & taman sari. But we also visited the more hidden places and cute streets (Jalan tikus) of Yogja. Also a very good food and shopping guide. Would highly recommend if you want a relaxed and personalised tour with the special places of Yogja. ❤️"
"Yulaikha gave us a very thorough and informative tour of the major sights in Yogyakarta. Her excellent English and deep knowledge of local history helped us to better understand and appreciate the sights at Fort Vredeburg, Kraton palace, Taman Sari and the surrounding neighborhood. Yula’s tour was definitely worth the price, and we would highly recommend her! "
"We booked our guide Yula for 6 hours and it was worth every cent. Yula took the tour at the pace we needed and we had the most wonderful day. Yula is an excellent guide and was so knowledgable about Yogya. She is so open and friendly and we immediately felt at ease with her. I would highly recommend her. "
"We had the best day with Yula. She immediately put us at ease with her warmth and friendliness. Yula was very responsive to our needs and took the tour at the right pace for us. Yula was very knowledgable about all the places she took us - the Kraton, Tamansari and Vredeburg Museum. I highly recommend her as a guide. "
