Amazing experience. Look out for shooting stars as you go across Lake Batur - I saw 2! Our guides and driver were really friendly and told us all about the area. I recommend the ginger tea to warm up when you get to the top. It’s quite a steep climb but not too long. The views of the sunrise were just amazing.

This tour was unbelievable from start to finish! We felt like we were the luckiest people with the best karma because everything was perfect! A smooth and easy pick up from hotel in Kintamani, a boat pickup and glide through the lake in the dark. So serene and magical ! Our guide was so helpful and even arranged for the perfect sunrise at the top! It is not an easy hike and was slippery in places, but I never felt unsafe. There were just the two of us and our guide so perfectly quiet and suited to our needs. We had breakfast snack at the top and time lapsed the sunrise. Ala in all, I give this rating as on of the peak experiences of my life!

We had the most amazing sunrise hike with Wira our guide. He was very patient and helpful with my mother who was nervous on the climb, couldn’t recommend him enough! We saw an amazing sunrise and the private shuttle service made it all very smooth.

This was a great trip from start to finish. After booking and on the day before, Justin communicated the plans really clearly and answered our questions. Our driver for the morning was Yosi who picked us up promptly from the hotel and drove carefully through some very thick fog! He was very friendly and personable. On arrival at the lake, we met Wi our hiking guide and took a boat across to the start point of the trek and then walked uphill for 50 minutes. It was steep but you can stop whenever you need to take a break and keep the pace as leisurely as you need it to be. On arrival at the top of the caldera there were views of 4 volcanoes, one as far a way as Lombok island, and we watched the sunrise and had a light breakfast of a hot ginger tea, fruit, bread and eggs. It was peaceful, quiet, unpolluted and we really escaped the crowds going up Mt Batur. We were in no way rushed and after sunrise were ready to climb back down. Wi ensured we were safe and advised of slippery or less safe routes to take. We’d highly recommend this company for their excellent communication, offering a unique trip that escapes the crowds and for providing a guide and driver who were genuinely lovely people.

My family and I had a great experience with this trip. Even though it wasn't mount Batur we found it more enjoyable because it provides a journey that isn't congested with hundreds of tourists, yet still brings a great view of Mount Batur and the other magnificent mountains around. Upon arrival they provide you with head torches before the quick boat ride to base of the caldera. We then walked 45 minutes to the top, where there was places to sit and some locals provided us with food and hot bevrages. While we were at the top, a fog covered the mountais, but as the sun rose, it slowly cleared and provided a great atmosphere. Nawa (one of the guides) took some amazing pictures, even using a trick with his phone to give a cool water reflection in the photo. The other guide (Wi) was also very informative while you walked up and down, showing local flora to admire. He also gave a great insight into the temple and statue at the bottom of the caldera which you pass by boat. Our driver Yosi was also amazing and spoke brilliant English, allowing us to chat for the whole journey.

Overall, the experience was pleasant. The driver arrived on time and brought us to the hiking starting point super early in the morning. Our hiking guide Wira was super supportive and patient throughout the journey. Although we couldn’t catch the best sunrise due to the fog, the views along the way were still stunning! A few tips to take note of: 1. Don’t underestimate the cold at the peak! A light windbreaker isn’t enough for the strong winds up there. We ended up renting a blanket for 50k IDR to stay warm. 2. Wear proper hiking shoes. Parts of the trail includes loose, porous stones and sand, so shoes with good grip are essential to avoid slipping. 3. Beginners, be mentally prepared (but trust me the view is definitely worth your sweat and tear hahah) The trail is steep and rocky in parts. We were provided a walking stick by our guide and that was a big help.

Our friendly guide, Wayan, took us on a long and interesting walk through the rice terraces. We winded our way through fields, along irrigation canals. Towards the end, the trekking was more challenging than I had expected, including wading through a river (though-high only) but with Wayan's expert help, we mastered that.
