Review Body: Jero pick us (family of 4) in our villa on time. He greeted us good morning with a sincere heart and a sincere smile. While we on our way to the location he share a lot of things with us. Make us comfortable. Car was clean and the aircon was superb. His driving was skilful. Navigate smoothly. Was a superb experience with Jero ! Mantap ! 👍🏽 Adi (4x4) driver was indeed friendly. He kept telling us to take our time to capture our experience there. Even helped us to take pictures! Not only that he help us entertained my nephew, while the adults taking pictures. At a point we lost one of the phones and he stopped the car and run 50m back to find the phone while we are in the car. A very sincere man doing his job. He played music to keep us entertained too! Overall both of them Jero and Adi was superb! Was a great experience having them as our driver! Thank you both Jero and Adi! Mantap skali ! 👍🏽❤️

Review Body: My husband and I had an excellent time on the Mt Batur sunrise tour! The early morning is well worth it. Our driver, Jero Kadek Arcana, confirmed details of our pickup the day before so the morning went very smoothly. We rented blankets from the company before we got into the jeep, which was definitely nice and very needed since it is a bit chilly. The jeep ride itself was fun and the sunrise was gorgeous. We went to the black lava fields afterwards which were beautiful and really cool to see. On the ride home, our driver Jero shared a lot of really cool information about temples, culture and religion in Bali. He even made a stop at an excellent coffee shop as well as at a fruit stand per our request. The car ride itself was beautiful and we had a lot of fun learning more from Jero!

Review Body: Our driver, Jero, were extremely kind, friendliest driver ever, the best! Arrived earlier than expected. The way he drive, love it. Smooth like water. my son sleep both ways on the bumpy road! We felt very safe. On the way back to our villa, we all very tired and sleepy and not once he stepped on the break so hard. We nap like baby in the car. For all we know, we are reaching our villa! The car was clean and confortable and we couldn't wish for a better service. Thank you Jero! The jeep driver Adi, the sweetest. Patient guy and sporting! My son was having tantrum as the time trip was his sleep time. Adi was so sweet, entertained my son the best he can. Thank you! Love the trip and definitely wants to return the soonest.

Review Body: Great experience from start to finish. Got picked up by friendly and professional driver Jero Kadek and taken to the starting point approximately an hour from Ubud. The jeep drive up was super fun and the driver of the jeep was also amazing. We added on a guided walk last minute as we got to the end location of the jeep as we wanted to get a bit higher up the mountain. They were accommodating and organised a friendly guide who patiently helped us up to the top which was approximately 50 minutes hike from the jeep end point. Views at the top was magical. Highly recommend.

Review Body: The hike is well worth doing and quite manageable in terms of fitness and time needed. Make sure to bring extra layers for the top (beanie hat and warm jacket) particularly if you are a quick hiker as you may be waiting at the top for some time for the sunrise. But you do get a breakfast at the top, part of which is a boiled egg which comes in handy as a hand warmer! I had a female guide- Ayu, who was great and very attentive, she made the experience very easy and took lots of pictures. It’s also really nice as a solo female traveller to have a female guide too!

Review Body: Both our driver Nico and guide Lubak were everything we could have asked for and more. Despite us missing our alarm due to technical difficulties they did everything in their power to make up lost time. This resulted in us still getting to see the beautiful sunrise from the top of Mt Batur. We are very grateful and very happy with the experience provided. (Side note it is stated if you read carefully but usually pick up and drop off not included we didn't realise when we booked but was then arranged for us at additional cost)

Review Body: Unfortunately the weather wasn’t great, it was pouring rain and we didn’t get to see the sunrise as it was too foggy but you can’t control the weather. Our driver from Canggu Jero Kadek arcana was fantastic, so kind and really looked after us , he added an additional stop at a coffee plantation and offered to show us some places in Ubud as we were passing through. Our jeep driver was also fantastic, also very kind and gave us umbrellas and ponchos for the rain . We’ll have to come back in the dry season and try again .

Review Body: We had a really nice trip to the top of Batur. Our driver Jero Kadek Arcana made sure we get a great journey to the start of the hike and back and explained the trip. As we arrived we hiked around 1 to 1.5hours to the top with our guide Putu Arsa. He had nice food with him with we were able to eat at the top. Also he showed us where you can feel the heat of the active volcano. Can recommend it a lot.

Review Body: We had a great time hiking up. The mountains are steep and we took it slow and steady. It was great to have breakfast on top seeing the amazing sunrise. Our tour guide Iwan was great and helped us along the way to navigate the tricky hiking paths and lots of loose stones.

Discover the sunrise & black lava at Mount Batur!
Have you tried any surprising activities while on your vacation in Bali? Are you just sitting in the night club with a bottle of Bintang? Or sunbathing on the beach, looking for Instragrammable spots? What about trying something new and unexpected like a Jeep Tour of the ancient Mount Batur?! This will give you an opportunity to see the sunrise over the beautiful volcano mountain as well as explore the black sand left over after Mt Batur's lava eruptions. What to ExpectSunrise on the Caldera You will meet at the Bintang House in Kintamnai. Here we will start our Mount Batur jeep trip. The jeep drive to the sunrise point will take approximately 30 minutes through farms and rocky and sandy roads. Arriving at the sunrise point you will be amazed by gorgeous view of the caldera, Lake Batur as well as Mount Abang and Mount Agung as the sunrises overhead. While you enjoy the sunrise, you will get a yummy breakfast and hot drinks such as tea, hot chocolate or Balinese black coffee. Black Lava Sand Field After sunrise you will continue your trip to explore black sand, black lava. On your way you will pass by villages, getting a glimpse of local life as you see farmers tending to their tomato and onion fields or driving behind a big lorry packed with vegetables heading to market. Before you make it to the lava field you will even cross through a forested area, making for a beautiful green surroundings. Once you arrive at the black sand lava field it will be a truly incredible sight. The black sand appears to go on forever making the landscape seem like something from another planet. It's incredible to think that this is the power of this seemingly innocuous volcano, gently napping in the background. Its last significant wake up was back in the year 2000, which produced this lava field.Natural Hot Springs You will complete your trip by soaking in the healing waters of Batur Natural Hot Spring and where you can relax your tight muscle. Here you can also enjoy the photographic panorama of beautiful Lake Batur from a completely different angle.

Jero grew up farming with his family in the shadow of Mount Batur, but the volcano always called to him. He and his cousins would spend hours exploring its slopes. Now, he shares that love with visitors, leading his team of local experts (some of those same cousins!). This is a story of passion, community, and how tourism can truly uplift local lives.
