5.00Incredible tour! So well organised you dont need to think about anything just to enjoy. Waterfalls and vulcanos gave us out of this world experience! It makes a perfect balance to your Bali visit, as we were missing some real adventure. Photos we made were 😍😍Thanks again to the agency, they were super flexible and made sure to organise our pickup and dropoff in the way it was most suitable for us, I really appreciated that. Dont miss this tour!
Highly recommended, any time again

5.00Super organized tour with two super people. Our guide Nadal, who always knew a competent answer to all our questions, and our driver Vandi, with whom we felt totally safe. The two of them fully responded to our wishes and we also laughed a lot together. Nadal is not only a guide but also a great photographer. He created lasting memories for us. The accommodations are reasonable for the tour. It was a lot of fun, even if the weather wasn’t always in play, and it left great impressions. The tour and the guide + driver are highly recommended.
Amazing tour! Good company!

5.00We just returned from the 3 Day Tour: Mount Bromo, Kawah Ijen Crater & Tumpak Sewu Waterfall, and it was absolutely incredible! From start to finish, everything was perfectly organized and exceeded all expectations. Each destination was unique and breathtaking in its own way — watching the sunrise over Mount Bromo felt like something out of a dream, hiking to Ijen was both surreal and unforgettable, and standing in front of Tumpak Sewu was like discovering a hidden paradise. A huge shoutout to our amazing guide, Rizky, who went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable, safe, and having the best time possible. His knowledge, patience, and genuine passion for the region made the experience even more special. We highly recommend this tour It’s the perfect mix of adventure, nature, and cultural insight. Easily one of the highlights of my travels. Thank you for an unforgettable journey!

5.00We love our 3-day private tour with IDN Trip Experience. The tour fee is reasonable and already inclusive of all admission fees. Our guide Alef is very nice and helpful throughout the trip, especially on the second day when our Jeep broke down on our way to Mount Bromo, she managed the situation well and we were able to make it to the sunrise view point! There’s an additional guide when we hiked at Ijen. He’s also very nice and thoughtful and would help us on our way down to the crater as the route is difficult. It was such an unforgettable experience and we would definitely be back in Indonesia for another volcano hike!!!
GREAT EXPERIENCE

5.00Really recommend this 3D/2N tour of Tumpak Sewu waterfalls, Mt. Bromo and Mt. Ijen. It has been an amazing experience made possible by the great organisation of IDN trip. Our guide, Sadam, and our driver have been amazing throughout the trip. The tour delivered 100% what it promised and our guide went beyond by bringing us to some great spots to watch the sunrise on Mt. Bromo and Mt. Ijen. All the days included trekking and especially at Mt. Ijen we arrived before anyone so we could enjoy the blue flame almost by ourselves. The accomodations were excellent and the car was clean and spacious so you can rest in the drive to the next location. Again really good experience and would highly recommend it!!
Wonderful trip that everyone should join !

5.00The tour was great! Our guide (needle) went to great lengths. He always gave us the best view. The pictures have become great. I was unfortunately a bit sick, but it was always taken into consideration there too! The transfers between the hotels and sights were super fast. Our driver (Ricky) drove fast and safely. He did a great job! The hotels were good too. Unfortunately, we had a long journey from Germany, which is why we mostly only used the time in the hotels to sleep. I would have loved to have jumped into the pool of one hotel. 😅 Me and my girlfriend can recommend the tour to anyone.
Nice trip!!
