Love letters from our guests

We hiked in a small group of 4. Our guide was very friendly and allowed us to hike at our pace. The hike itself is not overly challenging, and most people with a decent level of fitness should be able to handle it fine. It took us an hour to climb, and that was at quite a leisurely pace. We had a breakfast consisting of a banana sandwich, boiled eggs, a chocolate bar, and a hot coffee at the summit. This was the perfect way to soak in the view. I would highly recommend this experience.

Great, friendly and knowledgeable guide, who was from the area! I'd def recommend doing this over hiking the mount Batur. We had a great view and a lovely breakfast overlooking the vulcano and the sunrise.

It was the most fabulous experience. From start to finish. The taxi driver Yosi walked to meet me as I was staying down a dark and unlit alley in Ubud at the 2.50am start. The journey was comfortable to the starting point where we met with the incredible guide by the name of Wi. Wi bought head torches for our use and carefully guided me towards the boat. Staring up at the stars was inspiring. After tying to boat up we started the steady but uphill ascent of the mountain. WI was always there to lend a hand and advise which parts of the path needed careful navigating. Reaching the summit I was treated to lovely ginger tea, fruit, a chocolate bar and Nutella sandwiches. I really needed these! The clouds magically started to disappear and as the sun rose I got some amazing photos and Wi proved a master at photography! The descent was slower as slippery due to the rain...but I had brought my walking pole ( a stick will suffice) and this helped tremendously. With an ever helpful hand from Wi I was led safely down the path learning about some of the fauna on the way. Back on the boat I was shown the Lady of the Lake goddess and the fish farm then proceeded back towards the shore and the taxi waiting patiently to take me back into Ubud. Friends and relatives all were amazed at the photos and I will have some printed on canvas as a lasting memory. It is rare to find a trip where one feels so very welcome..not just a paying tourist. I wish all concerned the very best for 2026 and thank you all for really making the experience one to cherish.
