Hi, I’m Ayu (IU), a local tour guide based in Padang, West Sumatra.I have a Bachelor’s degree in English Education, so you can expect clear communication and a relaxed, friendly vibe throughout the trip.

I’m not a typical guide who just follows a script.I’ve personally explored most of West Sumatra – from hiking Mount Talang and , to chasing waterfalls called Lubuk Hitam and Sarasah, to island the Mandeh archipelago.

My goal is simple: make you feel safe, have fun, and leave with real stories you’ll want to share when you get home.
