It was one of the best day being in ubud! Me and my friend had so much fun going to mount batur with our buddy ADI and KOMANG. They are so funny, fun, and amazing as guides. We love spending every bits of time with them from the start til the end. Thank you again Adi for being so accommodating to me and kak azee. Appreciate it so much! :) We started our journey from the hotel (they will pick you up) to the waiting point to meet the driver and then we waited a bit before going up. It was all worth it believe me. They also prepare food for us while waiting for the sunrise. Just book this one and you will not regret it. The waiting point is a beautiful villa. In the morning you will see beautiful view of mountain, lake and everything in between. It was all worth it!

It was my first time hiking, but I managed to make the climb thanks to my guide (I unfortunately forgot his name…). He was very helpful, and made sure to support people in our group when certain parts of the climb were too steep, etc. I will warn you though, the climb down is quite tough. It is very easy to slip, and people do get hurt if they are not careful. Anyways, I’d recommend this to anyone who would like to challenge themselves (you’ll feel very accomplished once the climb is over!). Special shout out to our driver Bagonk for getting us safely to and from the climb at ungodly hours!

Absolutely amazing adventure!! Full day of activities we will never forget. Enhanced majorly by our wonderful driver Dekwan Selem Gis, super friendly, polite and gave excellent advice. Would recommend hiring Dekwan as a personal driver for day to day in general! His direct WhatsApp +62 819-1839-2050

awesome experience, Lou was an amazing guide and helped me make it through this hike! It’s quite challenging for newbies and even if you’ve hiked before, all uphill and steep! But the view at the end is so rewarding

I loved my tour. Our trekking guide was incredible.
