Established in 2019, Lokal Amico is a boutique travel company born out of the desire to discover cities through authentic and organic connections. We take our name to heart: Lokal in Bahasa Indonesia means “local” or “homegrown,” while Amico is Italian for “friend.”

Reconnect. Rediscover. Relive

Lokal Amico aspires to help our “local friends” increase awareness for their local communities by connecting them with fellow travelers and enthusiasts around the world. As the world continues to evolve with the pandemic, their home continues to be beautiful and flourishing with culture. Lokal Amico has hand-picked a collection of highly immersive and personalised local experiences and tours in Europe and Asia, where people worldwide can discover the local culture and activities of the Lokal Amico community.

From a creative photoshoot in Seville, a wine tasting tour in Vienna, Austria to visiting the Gothic quarters in Barcelona; our community of Lokal Amico hosts are ready to show eager travellers an amazing time.

We are more than excited to welcome you in our city

Lokal Amico community is excited to welcome you in different cities across the globe. As most cities are now open to travellers, our Lokal Amico hosts are busier than ever to meet guests in person and let them experience their city’s food, history, culture, and even niche activities that only a true local can show.

For travellers in some part of the world who still can’t travel due to restrictions, we have some selected online experiences that can be enjoyed in the comfort of their homes - a virtual tour of Amsterdam, discovering Bali, Indonesia or learning to cook Thai food with a Thai chef.

Our Community

One of the visions of Lokal Amico is to build a community of local hosts from different cities. Connecting is not just between host and guests but also between fellow Lokal Amico hosts. The Lokal Amico team would like to provide our hosts with a friendly and tight-knit community. The team is present to help each host design their adventure from conceptualising the experience and even after launch to provide support. Our Lokal Amico hosts will also have access and perks from our business partners.

As we continue to grow our community, we aim to build a community of Lokal Amico hosts sharing their love for travel and culture and knowledge between fellow hosts.
