Discover Yogyakarta in Depth
Let me introduce myself: my name is Bayu Anggoro, though most people simply call me Bayu. I was born and raised in Yogyakarta, currently I live in Bantul, a rural area located on the south side of Yogyakarta. I work full-time as a tour driver, taking travelers, tourists, and backpackers alike to explore the Yogyakarta region.
I have been working as a driver since 2017. I love meeting new people, sharing stories and experiences, and introducing everyone to Yogyakarta. Our culture may differ from that of Europe, the Americas, Australia, or other parts of Asia—and that is precisely what makes me proud and eager to share it with you.
I’m not like other drivers who will take you to specialty restaurants or shops. I genuinely want to introduce you to Yogyakarta—to every facet of our way of life and anything else you wish to know. Wherever you want to go, I will happily take you there. You need not worry about a thing; here, you will feel right at home.
Whenever you need a driver for your time in Yogyakarta or on the island of Java, please do not hesitate to contact me using the details provided on this site. Feel free to discuss your travel plans with me; my team and I will offer the best recommendations to ensure everything runs smoothly.
