Gagat Handoyo is a local private tour guide in Indonesia

My name is Gagat, and I am your local guide for a tour of Yogyakarta, Surakarta, Semarang (for shore excursion), Central Java, and other destinations in Indonesia.

I started working in the tourism business as a tour staff member at an agency in Jakarta. Following my passion, I became an Instructor of Tour Planning and Guiding, Airfares and Ticketing at a tourism vocational school in Jakarta. I was appointed as the head of the tour department. I also had the chance to develop and initiate the school's travel agency as one of their income resources.

I learned about multicultural environments while working in HR Administration with a Non-Government Organisation in Canada. During this time, my passion for hospitality continued, as part of my job was arranging regional meetings, which included cultural activities.

I am pretty sure that this background and my passion will be a good advantage in helping you prepare and execute your dream journeys. Whether it is a cultural or adventurous journey, educational or just a relaxing trip, I will put my most excellent effort into making it worth it to be in your memorable trip albums.

Besides my passion for showing my beautiful people and country, I enjoy discussing various topics where I might share the secrets of the places of interest one might never have heard before, making your trip as enjoyable as possible.

I like coffee in the afternoon, trains and planes spotting, reading some books and of course music (both listening and singing),

When you travel to Yogyakarta and beyond, never hesitate to discuss your plan with me. I will ensure the best itinerary and tour delivery.

Live your dreams. . . one journey at a time.
