Prambanan Full Day Tour

Welcome to Yogyakarta! My name is Greg, and I would be delighted to introduce you to the culture, history, people, and everyday life of Yogyakarta and Central Java. Although my educational background is in Business Law, I soon realized that my true passion was not in the legal profession, but in tourism, hospitality, and connecting with people from around the world. My journey in tourism began at a travel agency in Jakarta. I later became an instructor at a tourism vocational school, teaching Tour Planning & Guiding, Airfares, and Ticketing, before being appointed Head of the Tour Department. I also had the opportunity to initiate and develop the school’s own travel agency. Later, while working in HR Administration for a Canadian non-governmental organization, I spent almost ten years in a multicultural environment. Part of my responsibility was organizing regional meetings and cultural activities, giving me valuable experience working with people from different countries and backgrounds. Today, I bring all those experiences together in something I truly enjoy: creating personal and memorable journeys for my guests. Whether you are interested in ancient temples, Javanese culture, local food, traditional villages, history, nature, or simply experiencing everyday life, I am happy to design a journey around your interests and preferred pace. I believe a great tour is not only about visiting famous attractions—it is also about understanding the stories, traditions, and people behind them. I enjoy conversations about many different subjects, and along the way I love sharing local stories, interesting details, and some of the lesser-known secrets that you may not find in a guidebook. When I am not guiding, I enjoy reading, having an afternoon coffee, watching trains and planes, and listening to music. I also enjoy singing—usually almost in the right tune—which is why I mainly do it in my bathroom at home! Don’t worry, I promise I won’t sing in the car. 😊 So, when it is time for you to discover Yogyakarta, Central Java, and beyond, please feel free to share your ideas with me. Together, we can create an itinerary that suits your interests and turns your visit into something truly personal and memorable. Live your dreams… one journey at a time.
