Superb day trip - Day trip very well organized. Pension Check-out at 6:45 am, arrival at Halimun National Park about 2 hours later. It takes 400 m of elevation gain (trail in the mud, most of the time, bring your walking sticks if you can) before arriving at the solfatara, very impressive. Included in the rate is a good quality lunch box, which you can eat by observing the gas emissions (lots of people on weekends) On the way back, pass through a nice waterfall: if you are lucky, you can observe Javan gibbons, endemic to the island. Guide (Mr Adang)'s explanations are perfect. Congratulations to the driver (Mr Jacky) who then takes you back to your Pension, the road is really well smashed around the park (it looks like in the show "roads of the impossible"), and traffic hell. You return to the Pension tired but happy on this beautiful day (personally, I would not do this hike when it rains)

Informative and worthwhile tour - Very worthwhile tour. I was able to join a group. Our guide was very knowledgeable and even spoke a few words of German. During the tour he told us a lot about the volcano, Java and Indonesia. Lunch is included in the tour, and they even asked us about our eating habits (vegetarian or vegan) before the tour. We did the tour at the weekend and it was very busy, so I would recommend going during the week when it is supposed to be quieter. The only improvement I would make is that I think they stop at a rather inconvenient point in the rice fields to take photos. There were much nicer places to take a photo on the way to the volcano. But I am sure that if I had asked, it would have been no problem to stop there briefly.

Amazing Volcano trekking - I had such a great time with Ridwan on his Volcano hike and jungle trekking tour. I can definitely recommend it! He and his driver picked us up early at the hostel and the feeling was good right from the start. The drive to the volcano takes around 2 hours but we stopped along the way where Ridwan explained/ showed things about the local Indonesian life. The hike takes you through a lush, green rainforest. Be aware: it is a rainforest so lots of muddy puddles so your shoes get soaked and dirty, but that is part of the jungle experience. The crater of the volcano is amazing and makes you feel you are on another planet. It is possible to swim in one of the hot springs there, which is a special experience in itself. On the way back we passed the waterfall for some pictures and the option to swim there as well. The most amazing thing is during the whole trip we didn't see any other tourists. These are absolutely beautiful places to visit but without any of the overcrowdedness of most touristy places. Thank you again, Ridwan!

One of a kind experience - Thank you so much to Ridware and friends for an amazing experience during this tour. I went in not knowing much or having any expectations. For someone who love to hike, this was quite demanding hike because we head uphill at certain areas. The best possible situation for testing your willingness to explore through nature. The view at the crater was worth it! Pack an extra pair of clothes if you want to dip in the waters. I felt safe and excited throughout the trip! And Ridwan goes the extra mile when we ask for help. Thankful for his coordination of the tour and I made a new friend to explore the city together! I can't wait to explore more area of Indonesia with his guidance and support!

amazing guide and hike!!! - ridwan was an amazing guide!!! he brought us around one of the villages and explained so many things that we wouldn't have thought to research on when coming to bogor. he was very attentive to detail! it rained when we hiked to the crater, and the guides pitched a makeshift tent for us. it was an amazing experience to see the crater in both sunny and rainy situations. he was also very patient with us as it was one of our first time hiking. the waterfall was amazing even though we couldn't swim due to safety. thank you so much for the very very very lovely hike and experience!!!!!! will definitely recommend to my friends and family who wants to visit indonesia for an off-the-beaten track experience.

Best Adventurous Day trip in Jakarta/Bogor Area - What a super trip we experienced! Hands down a 10 out of 10. Our driver was very experienced and kind the whole trip! First we received a tour trough the rice fields, how rice was being made the traditional way, drunk coffee with an amazing view of the volcano mountain. Our amazing guide also explained about the different traditional houses around the volcano, how people lived, and how different vegetables and farms were run by the local people. Afterwards we went for the jungle trekking, spotted Gibbons, super experience and nice temperature because of the altitude. Arriving at the volcano sight, what a breathtaking experience, definitely worthy, don’t hesitate to take this trip! Also, no tourists around which makes it even more unique. Afterwards, we stopped at a very cool waterfall! On the way back our driver and the guide took us to a very nice diner place. All in all, the whole trip was super nicely arranged! Thankyou Riduan!

Awesome & highly recommended trip - Tour guidenya baik sekali,walaupun kelompok kami cuma 2 orang, mereka sudi meluangkan semua waktu dan tenaga mereka demi membuat pengalaman kami sangat menyenangkan. Suasana di gunung halimun sangat menyenangkan sekali dan penuh dengan pemandangan yang indah. Saya tidak menyangka bahwa kita bisa jalan jalan dan duduk santai di atas gunung berapi yang masih aktif. Pengalaman ini sangat bagus untuk pencinta alam. Mantap sekali👍👍 The tour guides are very generous and kind, eventhough our group was just 2 people, they were willing to spend all their time and energy just to make sure that we have a very good experience. The mountain environment was very pleasant and full of beautiful sceneries. I never thought that it was possible for us to walk and chill right on top of the active volcano. Overall it was a very good memorable experience and it's highly recommended for nature lovers. It was awesome 👍👍 Bravoo👍👍👊👊
