Reviews summaryYanto our guide, as well as our drivers Hendra and Dewa were fantastic!! They spoke fantastic english and were very enthusiastic, maybe the experience wonderful. Yanto was very proactive in helping us climb Ijen, helping us over some harder terrains and even finding the blue fire for us when he didn’t even have a gas mask himself, and he bought fried banana and tauhu isi for us with his own money! The drivers were fantastic as well, they drove safely, stopping when we needed a toilet break/lunch break, and there was no smoking in the car at all which was a huge plus for me. overall fantastic experience and we couldn’t thank the locals more
Such an unforgettable adventure! We had “Yanto” the cute guy as our guide. He gave us mental/physical support and lots of caring during the hike. Safety first is his motto but don’t worry for missing anything cause Yanto will help you out to get the best photo and even some secret picture spots. The hike was tiring but definitely worth to do once in a lifetime. If we have another visit in Java we will nominate him again!😍 Also, as we have known the miners are still doing their jobs in the volcano area, if you see them please give way for them as they are carrying over 80 kilos sulfur. Their wages is extremely low as a labor work. There will be a bucket 🪣 at the artwork vender, if you are okay for the donation please help them out a little bit with empathy :)) Overall, we are glad that we chose this trip while visiting Indonesia.
We had an absolutely fantastic Mount Ijen experience thanks to our amazing guide and drivers! Huge thanks to Yanto, our guide, who went above and beyond, friendly, patient, and caring throughout. The climb was tough, but he made it easier with his constant support and positive energy. He guided us safely down to see the blue fire, checked on us often, and kept our spirits high with his cheerful chats. Whenever we needed help taking photos or videos, he was more than willing, capturing our best memories with a smile. We felt so lucky to have gotten Yanto as our guide. His kindness and dedication truly made our trip special. We also want to thank our drivers, Arimbawa and Tony, for their safe driving, punctuality, and warm hospitality. They made our journey smooth and comfortable from start to finish. To Yanto, Arimbawa, and Tony, thank you for making our trip truly memorable for both of us. ❤️ Here are some beautiful photos Yanto helped us take, plus a few lovely shots with him!
I came to this trip alone, booking with Klook is very safe. They have the completed service from picking up at the hotel, go to ferry with you for the first time, and manage for finding the local guide. The guide and drivers are very experience and aware of your safety as priority. Worth to try and best service ever with the service-minded crews. The view is very beautiful and memorable.
We definitely recommend the experience: The drivers throughout the journey were very friendly and made us feel safe on the road at all times. On the ascent to Ijen volcano, we were lucky enough to do it with Yanto, the best guide we've had during our stay. We were able to see the blue fire thanks to the hidden spots he knows, and when it was time to watch the sunrise and the lake, he took us to the best place. Besides, he was attentive to us the entire time and was a lot of fun. The experience was a 10 out of 10, and the company an 11 out of 10; we definitely recommend it, and if you're lucky enough to do it with Yanto, even better.
Highly recommended! Mt. Ijen was unforgettable thanks to the amazing team behind our hike. 🥇1st & forever favorite: Yanto, our local guide. He is simply the best! He’s fun, thoughtful, and constantly checked in on us—“Tell me ohkeeeey! Dame un grrr!” 😂 He encouraged us during breaks, celebrated how far we’d come, and shared stories about the sulfur miners, the Lamborghini drivers who work with joy despite the harsh conditions. At 4AM, when we thought we’d missed the blue flame, Yanto made sure we didn’t. He took amazing photos and vids, even while struggling to breathe and keep his eyes open in the sulfur fumes. 🚗 2nd: Lexza, who picked us up on time from our villa, let us grab drive-thru dinner, and drove us 4 hours to Ketapang Harbour. She waited until our hike ended the next day and shared her life stories with us—so warm and fun! 🚗 3rd: Cahyo, who drove us to Paltuding, helped with ferry tickets, and made sure we rested well post-hike.
beautiful hike and pretty manageable for not refulae hikers. blue fire was amazing and the view in the morning was beautiful. shoutout to our guide Supriyanto for being fun and engaging. Singing with me during the hike made it so much more fun!
We had an amazing experience on this tour today! First, our driver Dewa picked us up from a hotel and quickly and efficiently delivered us to the port, travelled on a ferry with us to make sure we were okay and to introduce us to our second driver - Cahyo. He was a great conversationalist and very fluent in English, so our trip to the volcano was filled with local stories and interesting tales. He also took us to the waterfalls on our way back, and showed everything personally. During the hike itself we were accompanied by a local guide - Aladi, who was extremely considerate, showed us all the best photo spots and also told us all about the history of the volcano itself. Big thanks to all of our drivers and our guide for making this once-in-a-life experience unforgettable!
A special shout-out to Adi, who is a truly phenomenal guide. He is incredibly knowledgeable about the Ijen area, its geology, and the best way to safely experience the blue flames. His enthusiasm and experience made a challenging trek feel manageable and deeply rewarding. I wholeheartedly recommend booking this tour hoping you get Adi as your guide! The entire team—Alexa, Chauhat, and Adi—deserves high praise for their professionalism and perfect coordination. Everything was well-organized, and I hope they all continue to have great success!
Unforgettable trip, everyone from driver to host were amazing and friendly. Nano was a great host and very respectful. Accomodations provided were nice amd clean, locations were just breathtaking no words can define the experience.
