Wonderful Trip... from the exciting n very bumpy Jeep ride, to quietly waiting as the sunrise unfolded as we ate breakfast n sipped on coffee. Our guide/driver , Kati, was knowledgeable, super friendly and a master at the photo shoot. Sadly that one dam cloud got in tne way of a perfect Sunrise but just maybe that's what made it perfect!! Our Car driver, Yudiana, went the extra mile for beautiful lookouts over the Valley n waited as we went to the Hot Spring Pools but go early as it's quiet then n got VERY busy by the time we left to the fabulous Luwak coffee plantation tasting... gosh there were about 12 different coffee n tea tasting VERY HAPPY DAY HAD BY ALL THANK YOU KATI n YUDIANA

We had an amazing experience with our driver War Sana. I'm a right leg amputee and war sana made sure there was nothing I couldn't do, from helping me in & out of the jeep to bringing us breakfast & coffees to the jeep, taking some incredible photos for us at the sunrise, and providing such a fun experience, we also got the black volcano and where able to get out and explore there too. A huge thankyou to war sana for being so helpful & understanding we had the best time and you're a great guide! We also had an amazing taxi driver who took us too and from the location for the jeep, called endrik. This was brilliantly organised!

Climbing Mount Batur was an unforgettable experience that you definitely shouldn’t miss. The whole morning was quite challenging, but absolutely worth it. The hike itself is demanding, yet manageable and thanks to our amazing tour guides it was much more enjoyable. After the hike, we visited the hot springs, which was the perfect way to relax and recover. It felt amazing to soak in the warm water after such an intense climb. Another highlight was the coffee plantation with a tasting session the staff were so attentive, explained everything in detail, and let us try many different kinds of coffee and tea. A special mention goes to our driver Aguss – right after the booking he texted us to arrange the pickup address. He was always waiting for us on time and made sure we got everywhere safely. Overall, it was a fantastic experience from start to finish highly recommended!

This is the BEST way to see the sunrise on mount Batur and booking through headout is the cheapest as well. It is so well organized. There is a very good breakfast organized for you after the tour as well in a very beautiful restaurant. Something that's not included in many other packages. Our driver Ridho and jeep driver Agus were very helpful and kind. Totally recommend them. Amazing experience.
