Are you tired of traveling around the center of Malang using only a motorcycle or private car? Perhaps the concept of "Safari Kayutangan" can provide a unique experience. Traveling around Kajoetangan driving VW Safari, VW Combi, and VW Kodok vehicles while enjoying the classic atmosphere. The exciting concept was initiated and developed by a team of communication science students from the University of Muhammadiyah Malang (UMM). Those who are members of the Alea Team also collaborate with the Malang Campervan community and residents.
"We open this trip that is set in the crowd, looking at the hustle and bustle of the city with an affordable price. We try to provide an unforgettable experience for customers. We are launching a short trip with a duration of 30 to 35 minutes around Kayutangan. Passengers are also given the opportunity to stop at two photo spots accompanied by a photographer," explained Tata, Alea Team's Public Relations Officer.

The safari was launched on June 25 at Banyu Biru, Kampoeng Heritage Kajoetangan, with the event Camphoria!, supported by Kampoeng Heritage Kajoetangan. During the event, a mini bazaar offered traditional snacks and foods such as cenil, gulo kacang, getuk lindri, and ontbijtkoek. Moreover, what made this mini bazaar enjoyable was the use of kreweng currency to give it a more traditional feel.
Previously, the Alea team and Campervan Malang had conducted several days of trials. From there, they got data that many tourists come from various regions. Most of them only have a short time but want a memorable moment.
