Our tour with boyo travel has been super comfortable. Our guide Budi had been a safe driver and it felt as he would know all the hole map of java by heart. Our highlights have been mt Ijen and tumpak sewu. It was definitely worth getting up early and the guides have been awesome. They took the best photos The mt bromo tour could need some more guidance and our driver was not good at english at all. That was a bit disappointing. One thing we would like to highlight is that every driver or guide did his best to help us if we had a problem. Even if bromo was not 100% we would always do the tour again and recommend it to all our friends.

We had the best driver, not the suitable weather, a lot of information allthough sometimes we would have known things before....Landscape is fantastic, some aspects of climbing or descending could have been dangerous. Blue Fire in Ijen is highly overrated and you have to struggle the chaotic situation, overtourism, many people not prepared for the way down. Situation at Bromo far better, well organized.

Overall amazing experience. Only request is to ensure the accommodation details advertised are correct. For the second night we were put up in different accommodation vs what was advertised.
