  Arya is very communicative, friendly and adaptive. The trip has been smooth and very glad to see Bromo in a distance and up close. Just wish the weather was better but overall great experience. Would recommend!

  Our guide Riza was simply brilliant. We have taken many trips in our life, but we have never met such a nice and attentive guide. He chose the best place for us to watch the sunrise, because the observatory was really crowded. He advised us how to take the best photos of Bromo and so on. He was just great

• Great trip and must do

  We arranged for an early drop off back at the Hotel due to a train we wanted to catch. All went very smoothly. Many thanks to our guide and driver team. The sunrise was amazing and well worth the early rise.

• Amazing tour - absolutely would recommend.

  Our tour guide - Ubay - was fantastic. The best tour guide we have ever had! Also had excellent English which made things a lot easier. We started the tour promptly at 11:30pm where we were picked up by Ubay and his driver in a nice modern car for our private tour for 2. The seats were reclined backwards in case we wanted to sleep. He also checked that we had brought warm clothes with us as it can get to around 3degrees and windy at the top of the viewpoint. (I highly recommend you bring a warm jacket, trousers/baselayer, a scarf or facemask for the dust, and possibly a hat. We are from a cold country, and even for us it felt chilly. Also, be prepared to get dusty). We were also given some free bottled water. We drove around 1hrs30mins to the 4x4 collection point where we changed to the Original 4wd Toyota Land Cruiser (and experience on its own). It was a slightly bumpy but still comfortable journey for another hour. We parked the car up at viewpoint, and hung around a very nice cafe where the guide paid for lovely coffees, noodles and banana fritters for us (even if we had to pay, this place were not overcharging - their prices were fantastic even by Indonesia standards). We chilled for an hour or two here. It started to get really busy after the 1st hour, but as we were here early we had seats and were comfortable. We also did not need to queue for anything as Ubay knew the owners well and served us himself. We then set off early from the cafe (as others were still queueing for food/drink). There was a short 5-10min walk to the view point. We had arrived first so had the best spot. Ubay had even put out a large blanket for us to sit on (no other tour guides had done this). We sat there for about 1.5hrs to watch the sunset over the volcano, our guide also grabbed us some hot chocolate to keep us warm. Truely an amazing experience watching the sunrise over the horizon and onto the Volcanoes. After a few moments we moved backwards as it dawned on us how high up we were... We headed back down to the Land Cruiser, and drove down to the crater car park where we took some photos. We actually decided not to go to the crater rim on this occasion for personal reasons - but we were already very happy with what we had done. We then headed towards the buffet breakfast place, had a decent meal and back to the hotel. Overall, it was a great tour with an even greater guide! Absolutely not to be missed. Ubay is a credit to his company, and we thoroughly enjoyed our day. Thank you!

• Go for it.

  The late-night departure is a small price to pay for one of the best experiences you'll ever have. Having traveled all around the world, I can say that the sunset over Bromo and Semeru is the most breathtaking view you will ever witness. A special thanks to Els, an exceptional guide with the best English we've encountered in Indonesia. He is a truly wonderful person, very kind, amazing photographer and will go above and beyond to ensure you get the best spot for the sunrise. Just a tip: if you're prone to motion sickness, bring some medicine with you, as the ride can be quite rough!
