We absolutely loved this experience from beginning to end! Everything went smoothly exactly as described, from the early-morning pick-up to making it up the mountain in time for sunrise. From our wonderful driver, Yoshi, to our knowledgeable hiking guide, Wi, we felt very well looked after throughout the entire experience.

The hike is definitely steep in places for unfit legs (like ours, haha!), but all the effort is forgotten the moment you reach the top. We were VERY glad we brought our windbreaker jackets because it was surprisingly cold up there! The views were absolutely stunning, and we certainly didn't feel disappointed about not climbing the actual volcano. The view from the caldera was perfect, with the volcano on one side, the ocean on the other, and the lake below. It was also fascinating to learn about the lives of the people who live on the slopes of the volcano.

We felt especially honoured that Wi shared the cemetery with us afterwards. It was a really special experience, and we appreciated how generously the Balinese people share their culture and traditions with visitors. We also got to see the fish farms, including Wi's own section, which was really interesting.
 We HIGHLY recommend adding the hot springs afterwards. What an incredible way to warm your bones and relax your muscles after the hike! We had more than enough time to enjoy the hot water and unwind before our transfer to Amed.

 I've been on many tours and travelled extensively around Southeast Asia, but this experience was particularly lovely. At no point did we feel pressured to pay for extras or do additional activities. It also felt like they genuinely cared whether we were enjoying ourselves. 

If you have a wonderful experience like we did, I definitely encourage you to tip. It's such a meaningful way to support small local businesses and give something back to the people who call these beautiful places home, even as they welcome so many visitors from around the world.

A truly wonderful experience from start to finish. Highly recommended!

The guide in particular was fantastic. Super personable and attentive, Ubay taught me a lot about Mount Bromo as well as Indonesia in general. The trip went smoothly and the guide was the highlight

- well organised
 - good guides willing to talk to us and explain the significance of the mountain and temple
 - a short hike. It's quite steep and can be slippery coming down but it was onlh 45 minutes
 - good involvement of the local community

We had an amazing trip! Our driver Agus went out of his way to pick us up from our remote villa. We were then able to nap a bit during the drive before starting the hike. Our guide Mudia led us up the mountain, and expertly paced us so that we were among the first to the summit but so not early to have to wait in the cold. The sunrise was the most spectacular that I've ever seen! They provided two trekking poles each which were very much needed on the way down.

Picked up from Ubud in a clean car. The driver was 5 minutes early which was comforting at 3am. The driver drove smoothly and safely. After about an hour we descended into Mt Batur caldera passing dozens of Jeeps preparing for their journey up the peak. It was at this point I felt happy with my decision to chose the quite path for the sunrise hike. After a quick bathroom stop at a convenience store (BYO toilet paper as none was provided), we met the guides lakeside who gave us our headlamps.
 The boat trip duration was only about 10min before setting up a steep and sometimes slippery 45min climb to our sunrise lookout. The guides were informative, patient and helpful. Once at the summit we were met with an orange glow to the east. Looking towards Mt Batur peak we could see streams of headlights and torches weaving up to the summit. Again, with our group of two guides and four tourists, I was glad I chose this tour. Our guide took so many great photos of us using our own cameras. He had some great ideas to make the photos fun and more memorable. 
 Returning was slow and steady with a few minor slips on the loose sections.
 Overall I highly recommend this tour. No doubt the jeep and trek up Mt Batur has appeal for some but for me, fewer crowds, less mechanical noise and a more nature driven experience is what I search for. This tour fits the bill perfectly.
