A very enjoyable hike like usual!

5.00We took our friends from out of town to Sibayak to experience its gorgeous sunrise. And Nusan is the only guy I trust to bring us up there, as I had previously hired him before. He will walk at your pace, choose the safest path, and prepare you a light breakfast. He is also very knowledgeable with the plants and history of the area. Highly recommended!
Great hike!

5.00Great hike with Nusan! He’s very friendly and welcoming to us. We booked a 3D2N Lake Toba + Mt Sibayak trip and the whole experience was very scenic, smooth sailing and enjoyable.

5.00Se contacted Nusa, the owner, vía whatsapp and all was súper smooth and perfectly organized. We hiked with two girls aged 7 and Nusa always made sure that they are comfortably and enjoying. He showed us also a lot of plants - including carnivourous - and shared his knowledge about medicinal plants. Later we relaxed in the hotsprings. After this Nusa gave us a stroll through the local market and brought us to a nice Restaurant. A perfect day- I can totally recommend. We also booked a transfer to Batu Katak with the agency and again really perfect. The Minibus is new and confortable- the driver Gabriel made the trip unforgatable- brinhing along a karaoke.
Good

5.00Nusan is an experienced guide who will take you to the summit easily. He knows where to go to get the best views and will show you interesting things such as plants or various parts of the crater. In addition, you can ask him to take you to other places in the vicinity, such as foothills of Mount Sinabung including the abandoned village.
Pleasant and timely experience

5.00Had an amazing first time hike experience in Indonesia with Nusan, our very friendly & sporting guide! Made the whole hike more entertaining with his jokes & loved how he shared some fun facts about the place too. Got to even drink hot tea & coffee which tasted real good especially with the additional view at the top of the mountain. Definitely recommended for those who want a seamless experience during their hike!
