My partner and I really enjoyed this trip! Our driver and the tour guides were very friendly and helpful. We would definitely recommend this trip!

The trip was amazing. I would have given 5 stars but the itinerary was not in the order we were told. It didn’t make a difference but it would have been nice to know. Also it said we would have English speaking guides and driver but they understood very little. It worked out fine and wasn’t a big deal but we just didn’t know what was going on sometimes.

Es war ein wunderschöner und toller Trip. Unser Guide Arif war wirklich sehr zuvorkommend und nett. Konnte uns auch viele Tipps für die kommenden Tage geben.

The tour was very good. Car with aircon, comfortable seats (even to lean back like a bed) and a nice driver. The accomodation was good expect by the waterfall. There the room had no window and was dark.
The trips to the spots were with local guides. It depends of this guide how the experience at the spots is. We had one superkind and nice guide, in another place the guide seemed not to motivated.
The driver and some local guides spoke wuit good english.
We liked mount bromo and tumpak sewu a lot. The mount ijen was impressiv but too crowded for our opinion.
All in all it was a recommondable trip and is worth its mony.
Mount Bromo, Tumpak Sewu und Ijen 4d/3n
The ride to Bali really made a dent in the full experience. DO NOT book an add on for that much money. We paid EUR70 for a boat, plus ride to Bali (which is next to your last day destination Ijen, the boat is 10k and a grab to Bali is 700-800k). We arrived and got the most uncomfortable ride imaginable without AC (4H drive after hiking Ijen the whole night - aka stinky and sweaty). Not sure how that’s EUR35 a person.
Other than that, the whole experience in Java was amazing. Our driver Arif was just the sweetest. When one of us got sick he even made sure to stop at a local fruit market to get some vitamines. Truly amazing experience. Just book the add on yourself - the harbour to Bali is like 40 mins from Ijen

I traveled to Mount Bromo and Ijen in October 2023. The transfers were very smooth and I could just focus on enjoying the moment, which I very much did, from seeing the sunrise on Mount Bromo to witnessing the blue fire in Ijen, I will remember this trip for a long time

Great tour! The guide that was with us for all the days was friendly, on time, and a good driver and photographer. We never had to worry about getting tickets or checking in and out. The local guides were all friendly as well (and they are very keen to photograph you!), but unfortunately not really that knowledgeable about the place visited. Expect to be in the car for quite a few hours each day as the different places are quite far apart (plenty to see from the window). Also the itinerary as listed here has a different order. Ours was Surabaya-Malang-Taman Sewu-Bromo-Ijen-ferry to Bali, which seems more logical but also means you need to get up very early (at 5:30, 3:45 and 00:00 (!)) on consecutive days. This might not be an issue if you are jet lagged anyway :-) also there is plenty of time to rest in between. The hotel at Taman Sewu was okay, our bathroom had some drainage issues (great food though and it’s right across the entrance). The facility at Bromo (Cafe Lava) is quite nice and the one right before Ijen is an actual resort with a pool (although you only stay there for a few hours really, enough to take a swim). Overall would definitely recommend!
