Things to do in Surabaya

Value for money! We were so lucky to get really amazing guides and drivers. Special thanks to our amazing driver who drove hours and even made stops for us when we requested - Andiman. Our amazing guides Nelsen and Leo at Tumpak Sewu, our driver at Bromo, and our guides Rama and Nana at Ijen. They went the extra mile explaining about the local culture to us. The whole team was amazing, thank you! For those who want to go, do prepare medicine for yourself as this is a back to back trip, it will be tirinf, but worth it.

Private car charter means no need to share a ride with others! The tour guide was very nice and helpful, and gave us a lot of flexibility. We weren't rushed, and we could take our time taking pictures at each location. There was a second guide to lead us on the Ijen volcano hike. He was very experienced and even helped us down the crater to see the blue fire ????.

This trip was beyond imagination, even though I didn't see the blue flame on the day I went. The vehicle was comfortable with ample legroom, and Mr. Rudi was a gentleman and punctual. If you like swimming, the hotel has a pool. Also, when we departed at 11:00 PM, the hotel packed the rice that we didn't redeem the coupon for in time, and Ms. Judi brought it to the car. It was very impressive. I encourage everyone to try this experience once in their life. Watching the sunrise at Mount Bromo is not difficult, but at Ijen, the path is quite steep for a long distance. I recommend being in reasonably good physical condition.

The Bromo tour was one of the most beautiful sights I have ever seen in my life, and every moment felt surreal and unforgettable. Although it was raining on the way from Surabaya, we were lucky to arrive at King Kong Hill under clear skies, allowing us to enjoy the full view. We also had the best driver and a wonderfully kind guide who made the whole journey even more comfortable and enjoyable. The entire experience was so perfect that I have absolutely no regrets choosing this tour. 참고로 쌀쌀은 했지만 엄청 춥지는 않았고, 한국 가을 날씨 정도로 느껴졌습니다~ (11월22일 기준) I was especially grateful for our guide, Melati, who made the experience even more enjoyable. She was kind, thoughtful, knowledgeable, and talented guide. She guided us perfectly and showed us the best spots. She also took amazing photos for us, helping us create memories. If I ever visit Bromo again, I would love to join her tour once more. Thank you so much, Melati!

I must say that Bara (Guide) and Uncle G (Driver) exceeded our expectations. Their wealth of knowledge and friendly demeanor made our trip truly unforgettable. Bara's proficiency in English was particularly impressive, making him an ideal guide for international travelers.

Layla is the best guide in Java! we were so lucky to discover Mount Bromo with she. Layla is a great professional and very friendly. 😊

Unforgettable Mount Bromo Experience! Everything was perfectly organized from start to finish. The driver arrived on time, the jeep ride was exciting, and the views of the sunrise over Mount Bromo were absolutely breathtaking. Our guide was friendly, knowledgeable, and made sure everyone was comfortable throughout the trip. The itinerary was well-paced and we got plenty of time to enjoy the scenery and take photos. Highly recommend booking this tour through Klook — excellent value and truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience! Thank you Laz for being my tour guide. Hope to see you again soon for my next activity.

Everything was perfect! Our guide (Dio) was incredibly kind, very funny, and caring! He explained everything to us and was also very curious to learn what we could teach him (French, for example). He made us a souvenir video and took many photos! It was physically demanding but very beautiful to see! Wear good shoes and be in shape for the nearly 700m of elevation gain over 11km of hiking.
