5.00We spent a magical experience at Bromo during the sunrise and the rest. A lot of people but because it was in July and during the week-end but still awesome and beautiful :-) Helios did the best to make us cumfortable. They borrowed us jacket for the cold, water, breakfast, snacks. Furthermore, I asked them for others tours/transfer in Java and they always answered to me and proposed me good advices and prices.
Great organisation to book the trip with! Lovely experience

5.00When you book tours online it's difficult to get exactly what you paid for. In this case we got even more. It was a wonderful experience from start to finish. We have a very good time with our driver Herry going from surabaya to cemoro lawang and back without any delay or problem. The tour itself was unforgettable: we have seen the sunrise from king kong hill (we were very lucky because the visibility was perfect) and then went for a trek to reach the volcano and see the inside (more or less the tour started at 3 am and ended at 9 am). Many thanks to our guide Dyva (sorry if it is misspelled) who was perfect and very kind. 100% recommended!
Great views and perfectly organised plan

5.00very good experience. The driver Wiwin spoke good English. The Bromo sunrise is fantastic, the water fall is also amazing but the park of water fall is not well maintained otherwise should have better experience.
One of the most beautiful sunrises

5.00Started at 1am, quick ride out of the city which leads to a lot of off-roading. Forget about your plans to take a nap in the car😂 super cold up there. Carry your own jackets or you can rent it up at the viewpoint. I experienced a temperature of 7C. Beautiful view. The guide that was assigned took us to the best possible viewpoint. Amaze!! Came back down exploded the volcano crater then went and explored the valley fields. Everything was taken care of and we just existed haha. Join their tour.
Tiring but worth it

5.00Trip was tiring, mainly because I flew in to Sby Friday night and was picked up the same night to head to Bromo. The guide Dian was great, everything was explained and also taken care of. If you can't speak a word of bahasa, you definitely need to get a guide like Dian. The waterfall was awesome and somewhat more enjoyable than watching the sunrise over bromo?!
Great Times with Yuli

5.00The tour was fantastic and effortless, but maybe that’s not helpful to you. What might be: I was having trouble booking a train ticket out of Surabaya for the next day, so when I arrived at the airport to wait for the tour I didn’t have onward travel. My guide, Yuli, took me all around the city from convenience stores to offices to the train station trying to get me out the next day. He did this without being asked, and without expecting anything for it. When solo, these are the things that really make you feel good. Thanks a lot Yuli!
Amazing tour

5.00I booked a sunrise tour to Mount Bromo, where I was picked up and dropped back off at Surabaya airport. We drove to the national park, slept in the car for a couple of hours, then switched to a jeep to start the journey. As we were early, we stopped off for a breakfast of noodles, tempe and coffee, which my tour guide Nico very kindly paid for (I was definitely not expecting him to!). After watching the sunrise, Nico left me to climb Bromo myself which was very straightforward. As a piece of advice, it is cold watching the sunrise but then as you walk across the sand to climb Bromo, it gets very hot very quickly - I would recommend wearing layers so that you can strip off as it warms up. Also note that you will definitely end up with black dust/sand in every part of your body, the worst was up my nose! Nico was lovely, stopping on the drive whenever I wanted to and making sure I was comfortable so that I could sleep in the car. He even stopped at one point when we were in a remote area to show me the stars which was amazing. Overall, I had an amazing time and would definitely recommend.
