Sunrise trek 100% worth it! - The sunrise hike was an amazing experience. I went with mount batur sunrise trekking who made the process very simple. Just a simple whatsapp to the business, and they handled evrtything from there. Easy pick up from the hotel and a smooth transition stright into the trek with our guide. Our guide was JRO, they did an amazing job ensuring that he took us on the path that was best suited for us and helped us on paths that reuired a bit more effort. Again was an amazing experience to see the sunrise over the mountains.

10/10 experience - Wauw! What an experience this was!
Putu (the driver) was very friendly and came perfectly on time to pick us up from our hotel. On the way to Mount Batur he told us more about Bali and gave us some good recommendations for future travels in and around Bali.
Jero (the guide) was super nice to us during the hike and helped us out where he could. We could choose between the hard or the easy route, but because it was our first time trekking we choose the easy route. It was very doable, especially with Jero giving us a hand (literally) when needed. The hike itself is beautiful but when you reach the top of the volcano the views are amazing!! We received two hard boiled eggs each, that were prepared in the hot springs, which we also got to see.
Once we got down, Putu brought us to the restaurant for breakfast. We sat down to an amazing view of Mount Batur. Looking at it from a distance, really made us feel like winners. Incredible that we were just on top of that!! It was a very nice addition to close it off. We did not do the coffee tasting, because even though the hike was not as hard as we thought, we were very tired nevertheless.
I wore a t-shirt and a jacket with leggings and this was perfect. During the trekking I was actually very hot. At the top it can get a little cold, but my jacket was enough.
I cannot recommend this enough. Of course the pictures are beautiful but the experience itself is 100% worth it as well.

Mt Batur Sunrise Trekking & Hot Spring - The Mount Batur sunrise hike is an unforgettable experience that combines breathtaking views with a sense of adventure.
This booking included a pick up and drop off service. Our driver, Putu Anton, was very helpful and contacted us the day before our tour to ensure all arrangements suited us and gave us information about what we would need to bring. On the morning of our tour he was on time and very friendly. He drove us to Mount Batur where he introduced us to our trekking guide.
Our trekking guide, Wayan Budiawan, was very well organised offering water, headlamps and walking sticks. Throughout our hike Wayan was very knowledgeable about the area and its natural features including the volcano and its history. He also captured stunning photographs and videos along the way, that we will cherish. When we reached the summit he picked out a perfect perch for us to sit and soak in the panoramic views. Wayan offered us a blanket (which we happily accepted as it can get cold on top!) and a hot beverage to warm us up. He took us to the natural hot springs at the top of the mountain where he had brought eggs for us to cook. We really enjoyed our small breakfast on the mountain! Wayan was happy and chatty all morning long. He guided us down a different route closer to our next activity, the hot springs.
The hike itself was absolutely breathtaking and we couldn’t recommend it highly enough. The natural beauty of the area is stunning and the sunrise emphasised that. The Mount Batur sunrise hike is a must do for anyone visiting Bali. It is a perfect blend of physical challenge and natural beauty that leaves you feeling accomplished and inspired.
We met with our driver, Putu, and Wayan bided us farewell. Putu brought us to the hot springs where we were able to swim and enjoy views of the mountain. I would highly recommend this activity as it was the perfect way to cool off and relax after the hike.
Putu brought us to our breakfast area where we enjoyed a very tasty meal , again with stunning views. Putu had noticed we were from Ireland and requested some WestLife songs to be played as we ate our meal, which we found enjoyable and a bit of fun!
Following this he brought us back to our hotel. For the duration of our transfers with Putu he was kind, chatty and always smiling.
This tour is unmissable, stress free and memorable. It was the highlight of our whole trip to Bali. Our guide and driver made it so special and personal. Thanks again to the Team!

Amazing sunrise & trek - We had such an unforgettable morning! The sunrise & views from the top are amazing, well worth the trek up!
Putu Anton our driver was great, good communication throughout, arrived ontime and was super friendly.
Our guide Wayan Budiawan went over and above to ensure we had the most amazing trek. From his amazing photography skills to his knowledge of the mountain - he made the walk up (and down!) such a fun experience.
Highly recommend Putu and Wayan for the best time!

Best sunrise view in Bali - Tough trek but amazing reward at the end. Seeing the sunrise at the summit on a clear day was one of the best experiences we had in Bali.

DEF SOMETHING YOU DONT WANT TO MISS! - What an experience! Traveling by myself and Gede (driver) and Wayan (guide) made me super comfortable. Both make sure that we were on time and had one of the greatest spots of the whole mountain (that is important as you won’t be alone there)! Great view, great experience with great memories made into an after movie and pictures. Will never forget this! Thanks again both!🌅🔥

Awesome - An absolutely memorable hike for my family led by an excellent guide Wayan who kept at a good pace and was ever so watchful for my kids and their granny who were all on their first sunrise climb.
Best of all, we left Batur with awesome photos, hero-shots and short clips thanks to Wayan’s pretty cool photo and video skills. Hiking up is totally recommended.

BEST TOUR GUIDE IN BALI (Wayan Budi Awan) - WOW WOW WOW
I messaged Mount batur sunrise trekking the day before we wanted to go and within 10 mins I knew all the details of the trip and had a driver planned to pick us up from our hotel at 2:30 the next morning!
Our driver Putu Anton was there 10 mins early, and drove us from ubud up to the base of mount batur! Great driver good sense of humour and a great smile!
When we arrived at the base of mount batur, we were welcomed by Wayan budi our tour guide. He gave us some bottles of water ,head torches and a walking stick each.
He said it was really busy so he took us a special route up that was no where near as busy as the main one which meant we got the best spot at the top!
I had originally asked Wayans boss that I was going to propose to my girlfriend not knowing that he would give me (THE BEST GUIDE POSSIBLE) Wayan
He pulled me to the side and asked if I would like to do it somewhere more private so he took us away from the crowds to us to a quiet spot and it was perfect, He was a natural with the camera😁 and got some of the best pictures we could have possibly asked for!
As for the way down, he said to wait for the majority of the people to head down before us meaning there was less standing around waiting for people and it was quieter so we could all enjoy his tunes and even better singing👌🏼
Could not recommend these guys enough
Thankyou so much Wayan for going the extra mile and making it perfect!❤️👊🏼

Great trip! - Communication was great and straightforward. You have received all important information in advance. The driver Putu Anton was punctual and reliable.
On site we were welcomed by Wayan Budiawan. There were headlamps, water and walking sticks. The climb is not without, but the view is worth it! Wayan took very good care of us upstairs. There was tea and eggs. Since I was freezing, he brought me a blanket. We had a great chat with him. It was very funny and explained many things about the volcano, the village and the culture. All in all, it was an all-round perfect excursion that we would recommend 100%.
