It was a great experience full of memorable moments. We were informed the evening before about the early pick up time by our driver to drive us to the jeep location. There we had some coffee and were offered some blankets in case we did not bring warm clothes. We then headed over to Mount Batur from where we witnessed spectacular views. The jeep driver was very friendly, he provided us with our lunch, which was very underwhelming, however the view made up for the disappointing breakfast. We then continued our trip to the black volcanic lava viewpoint, the ride there was amazing, saw rice terraces, farmer villages, lake views and much more. We then drove to the hot springs which gives you a moment to relax in warm waters overseeing the lake. The final destination was a plantation where we enjoyed some tea and coffee tasting. The experience lasted 6 hours from pick up.

Early mornings are never easy but this day trip got off to the best start with the jeep ride to Batur sunrise. The jeep goes about half way to the summit but the views and vibe is still one not to miss! We got so many great photos, met new friends and the breakfast we were provided was perfect for snacking on the rooftop! After the sunrise, our driver Aguss spent the day taking us to spots we had highlighted on the route home. Aguss was very friendly and accomodating, and he made us feel comfortable through out the day. He made sure we got to all the places we'd requested and we didn't feel rushed at any point. A big thanks to Aguss for making our day memorable! We would highly recommend!

#It was a wonderful tour—we loved every minute of it. The jeep climb with our guide William was unforgettable. We got lots of great photos and even caught the sunrise. After that, we enjoyed a 6-hour tour of Ubud with our guide Putrawan, who planned the itinerary for us and showed us some of Ubud’s most beautiful spots. We also took lots of great photos, which we’re really happy about. I highly recommend these guys to everyone! 10/10. Mr. William and Putrawan, thank you.

The tour is definitely worth it, the incredible view is definitely worth the hike. I can also recommend our driver Kadek Putra, he was really nice and created a nice atmosphere and for us a nice experience with the tour.

#The sunrise trek was amazing, awesome volcanic views, lake, crater, and Mt Agung in the distance. While at the top a whole bunch of monkeys came right up to us. Guides Manze and Sanjaya were great 10/10, super friendly, accomodating and competent. Would highly recommend the trek to anyone with a basic level of fitness.

We got picked up from our villa by Kadek Dwika, who made us feel very comfortable and safe in his car. We where then handed to Riski our tour guide for the day who explained what we where doing and when. Risky was very helpful and again made us feel comfortable and safe. Taking lotscof pictures for us without even asking. Riski took it upon himself to learn a lot about the history of Mt Batur and informed us of all his knowledge. Both Kadek and Riski could not have been any more helpful and friendly. Start to finish everything ran smoothly and was in our own time, we never felt rushed. Very good experience, highly recommend.

Tips for Mount Batur private tours

  • Dress for the chill especially at the summit. Temperatures at the top can drop to 8–15°C before sunrise, so pack a warm jacket, gloves if you're sensitive to cold, and long pants that protect your legs.
  • Choose your footwear wisely. Whether you’re trekking or hopping into a jeep, wear proper hiking shoes or grippy sneakers. The volcanic trails and lava fields can be loose and slippery.
  • Plan for a super-early pickup. Most tours begin between 1:30am and 2:30am, so get to bed early the night before. Ask your host or hotel to arrange a wake-up call if needed.
  • For the non-hikers, jeep is the way to go. Want the sunrise without the sweat? The 4x4 jeep option takes you to the top in comfort and lets you explore more ground post-sunrise.
  • Don't skip the hot springs. After a sunrise trek, a dip in Toya Devasya or other nearby springs is more than refreshing. It's quite soothing for the tired legs.
  • Keep an eye on the weather, especially in the wet season. November to March can bring clouds or rain. You might catch the sunrise but visibility isn’t always guaranteed.
  • Don’t rely on mobile signal at the summit. If you plan to share your sunrise moment live, don't count on full bars. Just be present and upload later.
  • Make the most of combo tours. If your tour includes Ubud, black lava fields, or coffee plantations, research ahead to prioritize what interests you most.

Frequently asked questions
