We had an amazing experience with BromoIjenTours! Our guide/driver Tono is amazing and made the tour 10 times better! Due to wildfires we we’re unable to do Ijen and Bromo. But the team came up with a great alternative and we had an amazing time. If we come back, we are definitely going to Tono again! Would highly recommend, thank you Tono!

We did the 5D4N East Java tour and I highly recommend it! Everything was very well organised, with seamless transitions between accommodations, activities and guides throughout the trip.

Our driver, Itong, was amazing. He was incredibly skilled at navigating the busy roads and always got us to each destination safely and efficiently. 

Each destination was amazing and unique in its own way. Unfortunately, Ijen was closed during our trip, but the plantation tour and additional waterfalls (Kapas Biru and panorama sriti waterfall) were great alternatives.

The trip was wonderful. Our driver, Mr Riski, drives very safely (not risky at all!). He is very punctual and helpful. He even helped us to buy ferry tickets to bali. The local guides at the waterfall and ijen are considerate and they make wonderful pictures and videos. The homestays are better than expected, although I’d recommend you to bring your own hairdryer. My friends and me are very happy about the experience.

We are a group of 6 from Italy.
 We found SeekSophie online, while looking for East Giava experiences.
 We booked the trip for 4 days and 3 nights for Tempak Sewu, Mount Bromo and Ijen.
 Our driver picked us up from Surabaya and dropped us off at Ketapang Harbour.
 He's been always on time and helpful.
 Our hosts and guides have been very kind and welcoming.
 We were very happy with our accommodations, perfect for our trip.
 Unfortunately Mount Ijen closed because of a fire few days before our trip, but the agency ave us valid alternatives or a partial refund with the cancelation of the last day, and we were very happy for this.
 It's been a one in a lifetime experience.
 We highly recommend SeekSophie.

Il Bromo è stata un'avventura indimenticabile, bellissimo il view point per l'alba lontano dalla folla di gente. La nostra guida è stata fantastica, sempre sorridente e disponibile.

The tour is very well planned which allows us to have a plenty amount of time to explore and take pictures (and we are those people that took more time on pictures as compared to other people) without feeling rush at all. However, meal times and stops should be taken into consideration as well, so it's better to prepare your own snacks for in case.

They are also very responsive even though it's 1AM when we tried to get their help to contact the host for the milky way.

Seek Sophie delivered on every level. My guide, Arif, was fantastic. He was personable, knowledgeable, and made sure I was safe and comfortable the entire trip. That means a lot to a solo traveler like me. Unfortunately, my itinerary had to be modified because of an issue at Ijen which closed the area, but the disruption was handled seamlessly by Seek Sophie and an alternative activity was scheduled by the company. My tours of Mount Bromo and Tumpak Sewa were amazing. I would highly recommend Seek Sophie if you are looking for a tour company to provide services while in Indonesia.
