About Me

Diana Toraja Tour Guide and Concierge since 1985

Hello, I’m Diana. It’s lovely to have you here.

I was born and raised in Toraja, South Sulawesi. After finishing school in Toraja, I moved to Makassar to study English Literature at Hasanuddin University.

I create private Toraja experiences for families, couples and mature travellers who value genuine cultural experiences.

I started working as a tour guide in 1985 with Limbunan Travel, which at that time was one of the largest travel companies in South Sulawesi.

Since then, I have spent more than 40 years guiding travellers in Toraja and meeting people from many different countries, including Germany, Switzerland, the Netherlands, the United Kingdom, and many others.

A little about my journey

When I started guiding, there was no internet.

Travellers found their way to Toraja through travel companies, letters, recommendations and word of mouth. That is how I built my work for many years.

Recently, my sister helped me create this website so I could connect with travellers who are planning to visit Toraja.

I am very happy to have this opportunity to introduce myself and my work to people who may be sitting far away and thinking about visiting Toraja.

If you are planning a trip to Toraja, I would be happy to hear from you and welcome you here.

Warmly,

Diana
