An absolute highlight of our trip! We were lucky and had the walk to ourselves. Our driver Yosi and guide Wi were both extremely lovely and shared so many great stories and interesting knowledge. The view from the rim was incredible even on our cloudy morning and we loved getting to take the boat across the lake. Definitely worth the early rise (3am for us in Ubud so not too bad) and we got back with so much day left to spend.

Justin was a great guide and helped us have a fun experience. Beautiful sunrise well worth the hike.

Great, friendly and knowledgeable guide, who was from the area! I'd def recommend doing this over hiking the mount Batur. We had a great view and a lovely breakfast overlooking the vulcano and the sunrise.

Wonderful hike despite the rain and fog. The hike is not that hard, we managed to do it with our 2 children (11 and 13). Our guide Wi was very knowledgeable and accommodating. Great experience!

Very well coordinated. I am solo traveller and there was no problem from the pickup, transfer, actual hike and hotel drop poff. Ijen was beautiful and shoutout to my hike guide Sir Zuki who was very nice and took awesome pics of me on top of Ijen. Best value if you are saving time coming from Bali to do this hike.

It was the most fabulous experience. From start to finish.
The taxi driver Yosi walked to meet me as I was staying down a dark and unlit alley in Ubud at the 2.50am start.
The journey was comfortable to the starting point where we met with the incredible guide by the name of Wi.
Wi bought head torches for our use and carefully guided me towards the boat.
Staring up at the stars was inspiring. After tying to boat up we started the steady but uphill ascent of the mountain. WI was always there to lend a hand and advise which parts of the path needed careful navigating.
Reaching the summit I was treated to lovely ginger tea, fruit, a chocolate bar and Nutella sandwiches. I really needed these!
The clouds magically started to disappear and as the sun rose I got some amazing photos and Wi proved a master at photography!
The descent was slower as slippery due to the rain...but I had brought my walking pole ( a stick will suffice) and this helped tremendously.
With an ever helpful hand from Wi I was led safely down the path learning about some of the fauna on the way.
Back on the boat I was shown the Lady of the Lake goddess and the fish farm then proceeded back towards the shore and the taxi waiting patiently to take me back into Ubud.
Friends and relatives all were amazed at the photos and I will have some printed on canvas as a lasting memory.
It is rare to find a trip where one feels so very welcome..not just a paying tourist.
I wish all concerned the very best for 2026 and thank you all for really making the experience one to cherish.

It's quiet, the guides are attentive, and the route is half the time of the mainstream one.
