I had a fabulous experience on this trip to Mt Batur Caldera and Lake boat ride with Nawa... he was a great guide and has a true passion for hiking as well as the local area. As for the hike, it was just enough of a challenge to break out a sweat but i was glad i did this one vs the full one up Mt Batu as i loved that there was only 6 of us and 2 guides to accomodate each others paces, as well as help me in the tricky bits. Booking was a breeze with Justin being super responsive to my questions, even before i booked. Yosi, my driver was really friendly and communicated well before the trip. A really great team!

The tour was great and the guide (Wi) and the driver (Yosi) too but I find it a bit expensive for what it is. I booked as a solo traveler and it's quite expensive although I'm happy that this is ethical economy. The morning was glorious starting with the boat ride and then the little hike and a local breakfast with the best views. We got lucky with the weather and could see perfectly clear the 3 peaks and Lambok island. The service and communication with the host was fantastic! Quick and clear. I'd do it again but with 3 or more friends :)

Wowww! That was one of the coolest most natural hikes we’ve ever done!! Such a full fun adventure, and our guides Yosi and Wii were so awesome- so sweet, and such great photographers! 😆😆 Highly recommend the natural hot springs after! When we reached the peak for sunrise, a local woman who lives on the mountain brought sandwiches and tea for us, and our friend even got to drive the boat back across the lake! What a beautiful, incredible experience. We all really loved this day 🙏🏼
