We had a fantastic experience with driver Ketut, and guide Yus. Ketut was even a few minutes ahead of time to pick us up at the hotel and have a pretty quick ride to the mountain. Once arriving at the mountain, the guide Yus met us there and from there the trekking started. I can't give enough credits to Yus, as he was not only super experienced and knowledgeable about every single aspect of the trekking and the volcano, but genuinely caring about us and our safety. Once arriving to the top, he also took fantastic pictures of us and the whole experience. Once the trekking was done we continued the ride with Ketut, who was extra attentive and adaptable to our plans. Cannot recommend enough these two great professionals, and also the activity. It will be forever in our minds.

We had a lovely hike up near Mt Abang for sunrise. While we saw the headlamps of hundreds of people going up Mt Batur, we had a lovely coffe and snacks with just the two of us and our guide- with a lovely view of 4 muntains! The boat ride was easy and very nice. Very highly recommended!

Wawa is a great tour guide. He is an Expert hiker: always there giving us a hand to steady us for the steep climb in the dark. He is also an amazing photographer. Thanks also to Justin our driver for his expert navigation driving us around hairpin blind turns and keeping us safe. You’ll love the views at the top!

A flawless, rewarding, and hassle free experience. Instructions were clear and easy comms over whatsapp. Our driver "Arjana" was prompt at our hotel pick-up and good level of conversation / banter throughout the journey. For the Mt Batur hike, our guide "Wira" was extremely knowledgeable and experienced. He made sure to maintain a pace that matched our fitness levels and checked our well-being regularly. Wira got us to the mountain-top first, beating the crowds and giving us prime position to watch the beautiful sunrise over Ubud. He even cooked us a wonderful breakfast and took many treasured photos for the memory bank. The hot springs was a refreshing way to unwind from the hike, with the water fresh and not overly chlorinated. A little busy/crowded, but small price to pay for the view of Mt Batur. We had similarly spectacular views at the resteraunt, with the local indonesian food packing plenty of flavour, while still being light and healthy. Finally the coffee plantation is a must-do with lush rainforest vibes, a complimentary guided tour and complete tasting experience of unique Balinese coffee/teas. What we appreciated most is that the tour moved at the pace we wanted (in this case super fast) and we were completed by midday giving us back the rest of the day and maximising our holiday downtime. Quite simply this was the highlight of our bali trip and the experience would not have been anywhere near as good without the team at seeksophie

Best memory of our time in Bali so far!! Both Yosi (our driver) and Wi (our guide) are really nice people. We learned a lot from both of them and we had fun while doing so. The climb to the top was doable for us: steep but short (approx 45 mins up and same way down). Proper hiking shoes definitely help too and Wi adjusts the hike (giving a hand, doing short stops) to you. The view was absolutely amazing, even better in real life than on the pictures. The breakfast at the top was good too, with some nutella sandwiches, boiled eggs, bananas, chocolate bar and tea or coffee. Just one other group joined at the same place, so a really peaceful experience. The crowds on mount batur could not see the sunset due to clouds this day, which often seems to be the case. We booked the ‘village’ add-on, but went to the cemetery instead based on Wi’s recommendation. The stories and insights about the local culture and ceremonies were really insightful. Since bodies are not burried under ground, be mindful that you will be able to see the bodies lying there, if you look closely. To us, it was a really unique insight into the local traditions. At this place, we also got lucky and saw a large group of wild monkeys. Many thanks again for the great experience!

Had a great experience with this organisation. Driver Dibya was on time for pick up and drive us save to the place with nice talks on the way. The guide Gusman was a young men grown up on the mountain so he had a lot of experience and could tell us a lot of things about the hike, the mountain and life there. Would recommend this trip and especially for this prices (tripadvisor asked double prices)
