An epic hike up a dormant volcano
An unforgettable adventure hiking up a dormant volcano, where the sunrise will take your breath away! This is truly one of the most awe-inspiring sunrises you'll ever witness. There’s a shimmering lake, with hundreds of rice paddies sparkling as the sunlight streams in. It's a magical experience perfect for couples seeking romance or a group looking to share an extraordinary moment.

Alba con la Jeep + black sand + terme + piantagione di caffè
In perfetto orario (ore 3) il nostro bravissimo driver ci ha prelevato dal nostro hotel a canggu e ci siamo diretti verso il monte batur. Li ci atteneva la nostra guida/pilota di jeep Gooddai che ci ha portato sul monte batur per vedere l’alba. Colazione con the dolci e uova. Oltre che autista, è stato un fotografo incredibile : ci ha fatto alcuni scatti davvero stupendi ! Dopo il sorgere del sole ci ha portati con la jeep sulle dune di sabbia nera e da lì al parcheggio dove il driver ci ha portato alle sorgenti termali ed ad una piantagione di caffè. Drop off al nostro hotel ad ubud ! Tutto perfetto! Grazie mille!

A hike of a lifetime
The sunrise trek exceeded all expectations - it was spectacular to see the first breaks of light of the sun as we climbed higher and higher. We saw the sun come up as we reached the summit and it was incredible! We went as a family with three kids, aged 7 and 10. Our kids have done many hikes but we weren’t sure how this would go so we opted for the jeep/trek combo. The trek itself was challenging - the first half is gravel, lava rocks and sand with steep inclines - but our guide, Adi was amazing and encouraged and motivated us. One of our kids needed extra cheering on, and Adi helped us boost her so she felt like a true mountain girl when she reached the top. There were lots of places to stop and rest and Adi provided headlamps, trekking poles and lots of water. He really looked after us and we are so grateful to have had him as our guide. At the top, we could take in the beautiful scenery and watch the sun come up over the crater lake. Adi brought us coffee and hot chocolate along with sandwiches, chocolates, fruit and boiled eggs. After our hike down, we took the jeeps back to the parking lot where we took a short ride to the hot springs. The water slides were a bonus for the kids! The whole experience was so memorable - we are so happy we did it! We absolutely would recommend this adventure with this outfit.

Amazing views, amazing guide, amazing memories
The 1:30 taxi pickup filled us with dread, but the minute we began walking we realised how special this morning would be. We seamlessly were connected to our guide Jata and began walking through the forest. Although one of us was scared of potential bugs, there were thankfully none to be seen on the path, none at all! We kept following the trail of head torches up to the top where we stopped after around 2 hours (about 5 o’clock) in the best seats in the house. Tip: bring a hoody/fleese we were freezing in T-shirts! During and after the spectacular sunrise our guide took some amazing photos on our phones we were blown away. He cooked a breakfast of eggs and banana sandwiches and took us into the steaming volcano, then we began our descent back down. This was when we were able to talk to our guide more and find out more about what life was like living in rural Bali, and he was really knowledgable about the local wildlife and area. We got back to the car, exchanged details with Jata and travelled the long journey back to Nusa Dua with an amazing story to tell our family and friends. I could not recommend this morning for able-bodied travellers enough: perfect!!!

Must do trip in Bali
Trekking was such a great experience. Difficult hike however there were options for if you couldn’t make it all the way to the top. It was very worth it when the sun came up, so beautiful and magical. It was a seamless itinerary, planned appropriately for the sunrise. With food and trekking guide included. Our guide Donnn was amazing organising transfers to the top of for 2 members of our group. Also teaching us about the Balinese culture and nature also taking photos when needed. We throughly appreciate Donnns services. The sunrise was incredible! Must do trip in Bali!

Thoroughly enjoyed our trek - the hike up was worth the stunning views at the top! Jata our guide was so friendly and warm, and we really enjoyed doing it with him.

Great company to take you sunrise watching
We booked a sunrise Jeep tour with black sand and lava before arriving to Bali. Teh communication was great, price was very fair. We were picked up on the day when we were told. Relaxing driver to the parking lot, transferred to a jeep and taken to the viewing spot. Also got a small breakfast - sandwiches, tea, fruit and candy. Later we were taken to black sand and lava field where we were explained some things by our driver. Taken back to teh parkin gand trasferred to a car to be dropped off at the hotel. A great experience with the company. The only thing that I was let down by was the sunrise itself - nothing extremelly special, really.
