Excursii Ijen

A fost una dintre cele mai memorabile călătorii din viața mea, plină de experiențe și arome. Deși excursia noastră la Kawah Ijen a fost anulată din cauza incendiilor de vegetație, ni s-au oferit opțiuni alternative și am ales insula Tabuhan, unde ne-am putut plimba cu barca, ne-am bucurat de prânz și de pauză pe plajă înainte de a continua cu snorkelling-ul. Am avut, de asemenea, ocazia să obținem imagini video în timpul snorkelling-ului pentru a le păstra ca amintire. În special, ghidul nostru turistic și șoferul, domnul Ruly, au fost foarte amuzanți și plini de energie. În plus, abilitățile sale de șofer au fost admirabile, așa că nu a trebuit să ne facem mari griji, conducându-ne de la un loc la altul în siguranță. Per total, aș recomanda să rezervați acest tur de mai multe zile în grup pentru a experimenta la maximum Bromo și Java de Est. 💯💯

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.

As my first solo trip,I was scared and doubtfull. The schedule somehow similar to the package,with some changes. Day 1: Tumpak Sewu Driver Andika was punctual and nice.Guide Widodo was helpful and good photographer!He stayed when I struggled climbing up. We stayed at Jamilah H’stay,far from town.The room wasn’t soundproof and the shared toilet was small. But the receptionist was very helpful. Day 2: Seruni Viewpoint Driver Frankie was friendly.We took a jeep near Seruni VP and had no guide, but everything went smoothly.Breakfast was prepared before continue to Kawah Ijen. Day 3: Kawah Ijen Our driver was skillful despite the long journey from Bromo.Hadi Homestay was spacious with better facilities.At 12:30 AM, we started the hike.Our guide Iqbal,was very helpful.Toughest hike,but he brought us to see the blue fire and lake without pressuring.We followed our own pace and made it! Going down,I took the “Lamborghini” for 500k—worth every penny! Tips: Stretch and warm up before hiking!

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.

O excursie la vulcan și cascade care a meritat din plin, mulțumim lui Dasi și Nandu pentru că ne-au oferit amintiri atât de plăcute. Vă sfătuiesc pe toți să mergeți la cascade și să vă luați neapărat un ghid, este o chestiune de viață și de moarte, este absolut necesar să aveți unul!

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! ❤️

Nabil, our sweet and kind tour guide, has made it an amazing trip for us to Bromo and Madakirapura Waterfall! Overall the trip was very well-organised. The time spent on each activity was precisely calculated, allowing us to have enough time to catch a break after each eventful adventure. Nabil took care of everything. After a light meal before sunrise he guided us to a spot where most people would have missed, giving us the advantage of having a clear view of bromo at dawn. He was also very thoughtful, providing us with cushions while waiting. The view was spectacular and breathtaking, absolutely worth the wait. Nabil was loquacious and knowledgeable, a decent quality for a tour guide, about the history and culture of each spot, telling us interesting stories and explaining things in detail. He also helped us to take a lot of nice pictures, making our journey even more memorable. He’s a friend of us now!

O experiență fantastică cu Blue Shark Adventures! Am acoperit o mulțime de locuri într-un timp scurt. A fost o perspectivă minunată asupra insulei Java! Mulțumim Ruly și tuturor celorlalți șoferi! Recomand cu căldură!

Excursia noastră de 4 zile și 3 nopți la Bromo, Ijen Blue Flame și Cascada Tumpak Sewu a fost absolut perfectă! Cazarea aranjată a fost excelentă și foarte confortabilă, permițându-ne să ne odihnim bine după fiecare zi solicitantă fizic. Dorim să le mulțumim în mod special ghidului nostru Anam și șoferului nostru. Șoferul a condus atât de lin, încât am putut să ne odihnim confortabil în timpul drumurilor lungi. Ghidul nostru Anam a fost incredibil de profesionist și dedicat; ne-a introdus profund în cultura și istoria locală javaneză pe parcurs, oferindu-ne o înțelegere mult mai bogată a locurilor pe care le-am vizitat. Fie că ne-a ghidat prin drumeția de la miezul nopții pentru a vedea Flacăra Albastră Ijen sau explorând cascada, Anam a prioritizat întotdeauna siguranța noastră. Pe lângă asta, este un fotograf uimitor! Ne-a ajutat să facem atât de multe fotografii uimitoare, creând amintiri de neuitat. Recomand cu căldură această echipă, o experiență de 5 stele!
