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!

Worth every penny! We got the hotel pickup which was on time and the driver was very friendly. On arrival we got coffee/tea and biscuits and met our tour guides. The walk itself took an hour and 30 minutes, the walk is quite steep in parts and does require a moderate level of fitness but the guides will stop or slow down for anyone under pressure. Our guide Nova made the trip worthwhile, very friendly and funny and loved chatting (very good English). We got a breakfast at the top and the views did not disappoint. Definitely a must-do trip in Bali.

Most amazing experience, with reliable and trusted tour guide provided detailed information about the areas and destinations visited as well as taking us to recommend restaurants with the best food weve had so far! 10/10 recommend

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

Great experience with our guide Technik & driver Eri. Would definitely recommend
