Everything was smooth from the get-go: the booking experience itself on the website and getting an almost immediate follow-up via WhatsApp to confirm pick-up and drop-off details. Communication was smooth and replies were always prompt. Also super glad that they were able to include one more location into the itinerary per my request to Madakaripura Waterfalls (at additional cost). Instructions were clear and driver was friendly throughout the 4 days and very skilled to cover long distances and regulate his way around traffic. Felt safe and taken care of each step of the way. Car was also clean and comfortable (caveat, I was a solo traveller so had all the space to myself). The different venue / location guides (Tumpak Sewu with Pak Min, Bromo with Ricky and Ijen with Ahmed) were also great at leading and showing me around the sites and value added by taking gorgeous photos and videos (you can tell they are trained as they know the best spots and poses to recommend even if you’re an awkward turtle like me in front of any camera). The hotels / accommodations were also ok - clean and not too shabby. Just don’t expect 5-Star luxury comforts with bathtubs and rainshowers- this is not that kind of trip. What was most important was they were clean, had hot showers and working air-conditioners to beat the heat and had an attached restaurant you could order food from. Basic essentials sorted. I had an excellent time and highly recommend this trip (: In the meantime enjoy some photos of my #legotravelcompanion #boywithbackpack at each of the 5 locations (Rainbow Village, Tumpak Sewu, Bromo, Madakaripura & Ijen) P/S - keen to explore other parts of Indonesia now especially Nusa Timur Tenggara Timur!

This trip brings you to another hill/ridge that is opposite to Mt Batur. I liked that this route is quiet, there are no other groups or tourist with you (there was only 1 other group). View was 10/10! Guide was amazing as he helped us took multiple photos and videos as well. I think it might be a relatively less tiring/easier route as compared to climbing Mt Batur.

4/5 stars because guide was late we had to climb fast which was tough luckily we were fit enough for the challenge. Thankfully still managed to get up there 10mins before sunrise. The hike wasn’t tough if we weren’t rushing our way up. We added on a waterfall trip as well. It was very private not many crowds. Absolutely love it

We are SO glad we did this. Heard so many tales (and saw the flood of jeeps) heading for the standard Mt Bateur walk and this was so unexpected and magical and felt like and adventure. And side note - in addition to watching the sun light up the volcano and the amazing details and history, we had a second guide stand in for the normal lead and he took the most insane photos. Normally not our thing but who even knew iPhones had cinematic mode and they made the world look like this! Seriously recommend (and I hate early mornings.)

Amazing night trek to see the sunrise from Mount Batur. We were lucky with the weather because the clouds were lower and the view of Mount Agung and Mount Rinjani (Lombok) were perfect. The termal waters after trekking was very convinient and the coffe/cocoa plantation and tasting very good to finish an amazing day. Thanks to the mountain guide Jero for everything and to the driver Intan, she pick up us in Ubud at 2am na then drive is to all places and back to Ubud. Very cool and professional people. I would highly recommend this excursion.

My husband and I had an incredible adventure-filled day in Bali with Seek Sophie! We wanted a day packed with activities, and they delivered beyond our expectations. Our itinerary included a mountain hike, ATV ride, and white water rafting, all in a single day – and it was perfect! We started with a magical mountain hike at the caldera, and the boat ride under the starry sky was such a surreal experience. Climbing the mountain in time to see the sunrise was breathtaking, especially with breakfast overlooking five majestic mountains. Next up was a 2-hour ATV ride, and what a thrill! The route took us through waterfalls, tunnels, caves, and beautiful rice paddies. It was the perfect combination of scenic and exciting! Finally, we wrapped up with two hours of white water rafting, which was a blast and well worth it. A big shoutout to our driver, Yoshi, who was super informative and fun, making every transition smooth. And thank you, Justin, for planning this memorable adventure. We’ll be back to Bali soon, and we can’t wait to book with Seek Sophie again! Highly recommended for anyone looking to experience the best of Bali!
