EXCELLENT Based on 1944 reviews sophiel982025-02-01Verified Great Experience Hiking Batur with Bagus Bali! The driver was on time to pick me up. My guide, Arta, was attentive and always prioritized my safety. He made sure I had enough breaks and even helped take many great photos.Although Batur is one of the easiest volcano hikes, some level of fitness is still required, and certain routes can be challenging. Getting a guide is the best way to ensure a safer and more enjoyable hike. Bagus Bali is definitely the best choice! Lin2025-01-31Verified Great experience Highly recommend going with Bagus for Mt Batur trekking! Our guide Gede was very friendly and helped us take many photos of the amazing view. We felt well taken care of. CvH2025-01-29Verified Amazing experience: daytime trekking Mount Batur In order to avoid the crowds at sunrise we, a family of four incl. our adult children, chose to do a daytime hike up Mount Batur and were not disappointed - we were alone all along the way and on the top. A spectacular experience, especially thanks to our very kind, attentive and energetic tour guide, Jatayu, what a wonderful soul! He always made sure everybody was ok, lending a helping hand, and prepared a delicious snack for us. Unforgettable! We also want to highlight the very easy and transparent communication/booking with the tour agent. Thank you to our nice driver, Anto, as well. Pablo H2025-01-25Verified Unforgettable Sunrise Hike at Mount Batur with Gede We did the sunrise tour to Mount Batur in Bali, and it was an incredible experience. Our guide, Gede, was absolutely exceptional. From the very beginning, he made us feel comfortable, always attentive to our pace and ensuring we enjoyed every moment. His knowledge about the area, the history, and Balinese culture made the hike even more special.The hike was challenging but extremely rewarding, and the view from the summit at sunrise is truly breathtaking—definitely worth the effort! One of the highlights of the experience was that Gede took amazing photos of us, capturing the beauty of the moment perfectly. He knew the best angles and lighting to make the memories even more special.A tip for future travelers: bring warm clothing because it gets quite chilly at the summit before sunrise, but once the sun comes up, a light jacket is enough. Also, make sure to wear good hiking shoes for the rocky terrain.Overall, we would highly recommend this tour, and if you can request Gede as your guide, even better!
