Banyuwangi Tours

It was one of the most memorable trip I have been to with lots of experience and flavors. Even though our trip to Kawah Ijen got canceled due to wildfires, we were offered alternative options and we chose Tabuhan island where we could ride a boat, enjoy our lunch and break time on the beach before we continued to go snorkeling. We also got a chance to get our footages while snorkeling to keep as a memory. Especially, our tour guide and driver Mr. Ruly was very funny and energetic to be around. Moreover, his driving skill was so admirable which we do not have to worry much as he drove us from one place to the other very safely. Overall, I would recommend to book this shared multiday tour to experience the most of Bromo and East Java. 💯💯

Thanks to Fauzi and Fredy we had a very good time even though ijen was closed due to unexpected circumstances but they able to arrange and customise the trip for us. Both of them are very friendly, hardworking and committed to their job with full of passion which make our trip wonderful. They deserve a raise and praise.

if you think about IJen, you should stop thinking and doing:)! it’s very nice place and view. the blue lava is nog so big but still nice to see. also the hike was heavy but with every strength you can do this. there are 5 checkpoint where you can take a break.

fantastic experience with Blue Shark Adventures! huge amount of ground covered within a short amount of time. was a great insight into Java! Thank you Ruly and all other drivers! highly recommend!

El nostre viatge de 4 dies i 3 nits a Bromo, Ijen Blue Flame i la cascada Tumpak Sewu va ser absolutament perfecte! Els allotjaments organitzats eren excel·lents i molt còmodes, cosa que ens va permetre descansar molt bé després de cada dia físicament exigent. Volem agrair especialment al nostre guia Anam i al nostre conductor. El conductor va conduir amb tanta suavitat que vam poder descansar còmodament durant els llargs trajectes. El nostre guia Anam va ser increïblement professional i dedicat; ens va introduir profundament en la cultura i la història javanesa local al llarg del camí, donant-nos una comprensió molt més rica dels llocs que vam visitar. Ja sigui guiant-nos per la caminada de mitjanit per veure la flama blava d'Ijen o explorant la cascada, Anam sempre va prioritzar la nostra seguretat. A més, és un fotògraf increïble! Ens va ajudar a fer moltes fotos impressionants, creant records inoblidables. Recomanem molt aquest equip, una experiència de 5 estrelles!

Our three-day, two-night East Java volcano tour truly exceeded our family's expectations! We learned after booking that the Ijen crater was closed. The travel agency not only promptly informed us but also actively helped us adjust our itinerary, even adding the Madakaripura Waterfall, which turned out to be the most surprising and memorable part of our trip. The three-day, two-night private tour was absolutely worth it! We had a dedicated guide and driver with us the entire time. Our guide, Jiaxin, is a native Indonesian but speaks fluent Chinese, so communication was seamless. Along the way, he shared many stories about the volcanoes, culture, and local life, and he also took excellent care of our family of four. During the trip, my husband, who suffers from severe sleep apnea, had a very strong reaction to the high altitude. Jiaxin meticulously looked after him, especially during the climb up Mount Ijen, where he accompanied and supported him almost the entire way. This allowed me to focus on caring for our two children without having to juggle responsibilities between family members. His attentiveness and sense of responsibility truly touched us. (And we even saw the beautiful artificial blue fire at the volcano!) Throughout the journey, Jiaxin also adjusted the pace according to our family's condition, arranging timely breaks, helping us take photos, and recommending local delicacies, making the entire trip very relaxed and comfortable. At Mount Bromo, when we were delayed and missed breakfast, he quietly arranged for the hotel to save meal boxes for us, so we had food waiting as soon as we returned to the hotel – truly thoughtful. I must also commend our driver, Agus Botak. Every day involved long drives of over four hours, often on winding mountain roads in East Java, and sometimes even starting in the early morning. Yet, he was always energetic and drove smoothly, allowing us to rest comfortably in the car. For families traveling with children, a safe and reliable driver is incredibly important. What touched us most was that they didn't treat this job as a routine task; they genuinely cared for every traveler. These three days brought us not only beautiful scenery but also heartwarming human connection. This was the best travel experience I've had in Southeast Asia to date, which is why I'm writing this review so earnestly, hoping it can serve as a reference for others. From the travel agency's arrangements and the guide's professionalism to the driver's attentiveness, they left me with a wonderful impression of Indonesia. I will definitely recommend them to my friends and family. I also want to add that the cost of this private tour includes one meal, local guides for Madakaripura Waterfall and Ijen Volcano, all entrance fees, and necessary equipment, so there's no need to worry about additional expenses – it's truly worth it! ❤️

Opcions de transport: El nostre conductor Dosi va ser molt amable i va fer que el nostre trasllat a cada lloc fos molt fluid. Itinerari: Prepareu-vos per a hores de son irregulars, ja que havíem de despertar-nos a les 12 de la nit per anar al lloc per veure la sortida del sol. Però va valdre la pena. Guia turístic: Cada atracció tenia el seu guia. Un agraïment especial al nostre guia de la cascada, Edi. Va anar més enllà del que s'esperava, ajudant-nos constantment a fer fotos i vídeos dignes d'Instagram, tot i que no ho vam demanar. Al final de l'atracció, fins i tot ens va ajudar a compilar-ho en un vídeo llest per publicar i ens va enviar més de 100 fotos i vídeos. Atraccions: No aptes per a persones amb poca resistència. Hi havia caminades empinades i va ser més aventurer del que havíem esperat. Definitivament, mireu alguns vlogs de YouTube per fer-vos una idea del nivell de forma física requerit. Opcions d'allotjament: Qualitat fluctuant. Un d'ells era increïble, ja que era un hotel de negocis. Els altres 2 tenien una bona vista exterior de la natura, però també tenien insectes (cosa que probablement no es pot evitar, ja que està a prop de la natura).

This volcano and waterfall tour was absolutely worth it. Thank you, Dasi and Nandu, for giving us such pleasant memories. I strongly advise everyone to visit the waterfall, and it's crucial to hire a guide – it's a matter of life and death, so definitely get one!

Itinerary : Did the 3D2N Tour to Tumpak Sewu, Ijen and Mt Bromo. It did felt quite rush as we were up very early everyday. But overall, it was planned well and we did get to rest in the car between our stops. The team was also very flexible with the itinerary. As I travelled during the wildfire that was happening at Mt Bromo, the guide switched around our Mt Bromo hike to our last day instead in hopes that the wildfire would be extinguished by then. Unfortunately, we were still not able to climb Mt Bromo and the team were happy to refund us part of the trip. But we still went ahead and just climbed teh sunrise viewpoint instead. Guide: My guide, Laz was very approchable, helpful and understanding. I was travelling with my sister and mum, both who does not have much experience to hiking. But Laz was patient and adapted to our pace during the hikes. He made sure our trip was smooth and enjoyable throughout. Also a shout-out to the driver who was very patient and helpful as well.
