A beautiful and challenging hike through wild waterfalls, raging currents and mysterious caves - The experience was truly unforgettable, with unbelievable views, a challenging hike and plenty of photo opportunities! I would highly recommend this to anyone with a love for nature, exploration and a reasonable fitness level. My tour guide, Nadal, was great company, as I was travelling alone, I don’t think I could’ve done it all without him. He made for great conversation, was very entertaining and took some great photos for me, incredible! He and the driver even gave me food recommendations to try out in Malang, and they were fantastic! I highly recommend IDN Trip Experiences and if I’m ever in this part of Indonesia again, I will definitely be using them again. I went in early March, and the morning was a bit sunny and ended up being perfect, we even saw a rainbow at the waterfall while at the panorama view at the start! I finished my tour at noon, after which it started to pour down, so keep that in mind, as climbing while it’s raining is dangerous! Be prepared for an early start, definitely recommend having some breakfast to power through. A bottle of water was provided, but another bottle would be recommended. There are vendors sprinkled throughout that you can get drinks and in some cases food for cash. Note that the toilets at the car park cost 3k Rupiah, so definitely make sure to bring cash, preferably in smaller amounts than the 100k notes I had! Definitely make sure to bring extra clothes for the journey back, a towel also helps and I recommend leaving these in the car if possible, to avoid them getting wet. I had a waterproof backpack and things still got damp inside. You will get soaked purely from the spray from the waterfalls, even more so if you push on to Goa Tetes cave, which is where the hike gets a lot more challenging, but it absolutely pays off! Also get appropriate footwear, you’ll be climbing slippery surfaces, wading through water currents and pools, you can even swim in one of them if you wish! I had several close calls even with hiking sandals on, so be careful!

Best trip ever! - We had a great time during our visit to Tumpak Sewu ang Goa Tetes Caves. Our tour guide Afif made this complete. Afif helped us get the best pictures and super guided us during the tour. It was also very nice that our tour guide spoke good English, which helped us learn many new things about Indonesia. Everything was very well organised by IDN Trip Experiences! I would recommend everyone to book this tour with them.

Beautiful - It was great!! We thought it was beautiful! We did not realise beforehand how much we would walk through the waterfalls but Afif helped us a lot! It was very special! Thank you so much!

Best waterfall tour ever! - The waterfall and the goa tetes are amazing and it was a real adventure passing through this unique scenery. Prepare to get wet, prepare to climb up and down through the running water and slippery rocks. If you feel comfortable with this, you will have so much fun! My guide Nadal climbed up every rock with me and showed me everything what’s worth to see on this tour. I could spend at much time as I wanted and he took a lot of pictures with my cam. Organisation, communication, punctuality, driver, car, everything top and as described. I definitely can recommend this tour and vendor!

Book it! - Afif was a great guide. I am traveling solo and he helped take many pictures and even helped carry my bag so I could manage the tricky water crossings easier. I feel like I got to see some spots that you would miss without a guide (like a cave with chest deep water that we waded through). Everyone was on time and accommodating. Highly recommend.

Best tour company in Java - Tumpuk sewu and Goa Tetes has been by far the best travel experience in Java. The whole experience was next level with a fun and slightly challenging hike up, down and through the waterfalls to get to the bottom and experience the full force and magnificence of tumpuk sewu. It is honestly surreal. The experience was made better by IDN trip experience. Budi made booking the tour a dream. His communication and efficiency is next level. We had the pleasure of having Afif as our guide, and we could not of asked for a better guide. His knowledge of the falls and surrounding areas was incredible. He was great at making sure we got through the hike safely, and was a great photographer too. Hands down the best experience and best tour company we encountered in out Java trip.

Well-planned, good services! - I recently went on a waterfall tour with IDN Trip and it was amazing! The tour guide was really nice and knew a lot about the waterfalls. They made sure we had enough time to enjoy beautiful views. The private car was comfy and whole trip was well-planned. I highly recommend this tour if you want to see Tumpak Sewu waterfalls without any worries!

Highly recommended!! - Had a great time visiting Tumpak Sewu ang Goa Tetes Caves. It was very easy to communicate with Budi and everything was smooth and convenient. I’ll definitely recommend them my friends if they go to Malang

Great experience! - The trip was awesome. Sugi was a great guide and we had a wonderful time. The waterfall was more impressive and beautiful than in the picture. I really recommend it!

Amazing experience at Tumpak Sewu! - We booked the day trip to Tumpak Sewu with IDN Trip Experience. We did our booking through WhatsApp less than 24h in advance, we asked whether we could start at 8am instead of 7am. The booking process was very smooth, they allowed us to book at short notice (which is great if you appreciate having flexibility for your excursions) and they allowed us to start a bit later than the usual 7am departure. We booked guide+ car driver, they picked us up from our hotel in Malang, our guide was Fahru. The experience with Fahru was amazing! He is extremely nice and friendly, during our car drive he explained to us a lot of facts about the waterfall and the surrounding area. The car drive there is beautiful, you really drive through the jungle. The excursion itself is a bit challenging, my partner and I are young and we do sports regularly so the descent down was okay, but the trek can be very challenging for someone who is not in the best health conditions. Also bear in mind that this is Indonesia, so you will not be wearing a helmet nor protective gear when descending down the rocks like you would in Europe, make sure you bring non-slippery shoes. Fahru helped us all the time, especially when the rocks down were slippery and when crossing the river with strong current. The waterfalls seen from the bottom are incredible, really wonderful. This is one of the best excursions we have done in Java, so I highly recommend it if you are into adventurous hikes. When booking the trip ask if Fahru can be your guide, he will make your trip amazing!
