Rian and everyone at Seek Sophia provided us with a wonderful tour experience exactly as described on the website. Both Rian and Putu (jungle trek guide) shared interesting information along the way. We were treated to local fruit at the market and then a yummy breakfast before going to the jungle and canoe ride. The jungle and lake were pristine. We had a great lunch at the base camp and then headed for the waterfalls. These were another amazing hidden gem. I would highly recommend this tour.

Our hike with Wi and the Bali Yok team was a great experience overall. It’s a unique route since you don’t go along the main hiking path, which made it feel more personal and interesting. Our local guide was really friendly and shared stories about the area and how the calderas were formed, which added a nice touch of history throughout the climb. The pickup from our place was smooth and on time, and the hike itself was moderately challenging - some steep sections on the way up and a few slippery spots depending on the weather. It was chilly at the start, but it warmed up as we got further along. At the top, a lady welcomed us with tea and yummy food. The view at the summit was partially cloudy for us, but we still got to see several peaks and felt luckier than those at the main summit, which was completely covered. Overall, it was a fun and unique hiking experience that we’d recommend.

We did the jungle hike, Canoe and waterfall tour. It was a fantastic experience and felt so far off the beaten track. Understanding that you are supporting a group/co-operative of families whilst also learning about the culture and the beautiful nature is awesome. Eating a home cooked meal in the family home is great and hard to replicate. They have put together something special. I would say you need a decent level of fitness as some of the hike/waterfall walk can be quite steep. Great day out, we loved it.

I really enjoyed this excursion to get out of the crowds and see nature. The guided hike was amazing and I learned about many plants—sadly didn’t see much wildlife. The four waterfalls we saw were pretty unreal. The lunch at a local home was tasty and nice to see an Indonesian family home. Thanks for the great day.

100% recommmend! Gede was very responsive for our queries pre-trip, pick up and tour were well arranged with no hiccups at all. The guide who took us up My Batur was also amazing, helpful during the climb, friendly and took the initiative to take many amazing photos for us. They are also local guides as advertised, so do support them!
