Additional Information

Instead of aimlessly meandering through Jogja’s streets in the early hours like an undead creature, or dozing off in your hotel’s reception area, why not seize the opportunity to transform these idle moments into the highlight of your visit?

The marketplace is invariably the quintessential spot for sampling local cuisine and witnessing authentic daily life. Commencing at your rendezvous point (Lupis Mbah Satinem), you’ll embark on an excursion to delve into a local bazaar, savoring traditional morning bites… prepared just as my grandmother would! Our morning culinary stroll is quite akin to our evening jaunt, with the primary distinction being our morning venture’s emphasis on the typical ‘wong yogjo’ breakfast and midday meal preferences!

Location
Lupis Mbah Satinem
Jalan Bumijo

Early Bird Delicacies: Exploring Yogyakarta’s Vibrant Food Scene. - We had our tour with Anisa and met at our first food stop at 7:30 am. ☀️ Here, as well as at every other stop, she explained how the different dishes you’re about to try came to be, all the ingredients they are made with, and how the Yogyanese enjoy them.🫚🍋‍🟩 After trying the food, you immediately understand why it’s so popular among Yogyakarta’s locals, and soon it’s really hard for you to pick your favorite dish. We enjoyed the whole experience so much that we even forgot to take pictures, but Anisa did for us. 😄 You may think it’s too early in the morning, but it’s definitely worth it because you get to experience the colorful and rich markets of Yogya like a true local. 🫔🍢🥥🥭🌶️🍋 You definitely have to come hungry to be able to enjoy EVERYTHING to the fullest! 😋

Excellent food tour! - I really enjoyed the morning food tour with Kalika. She was very generous, took time to explain every snack or meal I tasted. The visit to the market was interesting and I got to taste fruits and snacks. She also helped me buy salak. Kalika shared cultural informations about Java and took time to share stories about each other’s countries. Highly recommended!

A fantastic experience in Yogya - If you like trying out local food and you are curious about Jogjas Street Food, you should definitely book this tour! Vertical tours is a small, local company owned by young and enthusiastic people. In a few hours I learned so much about Yogyakartas most important (& most delicious) dishes. I got a taste from everything: from coffee to fruits to snacks, desserts and savoury dishes. We visited the market, street food stalls as well as a small restaurant. A great combination of food, culture and sightseeing. the Tour is absolutely worth getting up a bit earlier and it was one of the most fun and delicious Food Tours I ever did.

Interesting foods, friendly guide, worth it - Great tour! Anisa took us to several different places, each one with a unique item(s) to try. We had snacks, entrees, fruits, drinks...basically a whole selection! We did not have any dietary restrictions, but they can accommodate different restrictions you may have. Also there were no extra hidden fees once the tour began. During our specific tour it began raining and we were able to sit and chat with Anisa about life in Yogyakarta, the local cultures, and she was even able to give us some advice for our future travels around Indonesia. She was very friendly and eager to chat. Quick tip, the tour does not end where it begins, so make sure you take plenty of photos as you go along.

Filling, fun and a great snapshot into life . - Firstly, Anisa my guide was excellent. Not only did I have the opportunity to try a wide variety of breakfast foods, but I really got the chance to talk to her about her plans, life in Indonesia and challenges. It was more than a good tour and she was knowledgable about the food and history behind it. Come hungry, go home with a happy belly!
