The Business 
Sebastian began his professional tour operator life in 1987, when he was recruited by a company to be a licensed payroll guide in Makassar, Sulawesi and East Indonesia. From then he was an active tour guide in Makassar and Toraja until 1991, spending an average of 20 days per month on the field.
Incito Tours was established in 2005 utilising Sebastian's house as the main office. However, it did not take long for things to pick up and in 2006 Incito moved their offices from the humble beginnings of a home office into downtown Makassar, to not only start building the company profile but also help promote the company to domestic tourists at the same time.
Today, the main business comes from the inbound tourism side of the industry and generally Western Europeans make up the majority percentage. Sebastian now works with several Tour Operators acting as the ground operator for Makassar, Toraja and South Sulawesi, Komodo and Lesser Sunda Islands, and East Indonesia. Sebastian and his team are prepared to serve and assist you in any way possible, ensuring your visit to Makassar and Toraja is spectacular and truly memorable.
