Amazing views and a very well run day!

We booked this tour before we knew about the fires on Mt Bromo. We debated whether it would still be worth going due to the smoke and restrictions in place from the fires. We decided to just go for it regardless and were so pleased we did! We were picked up and dropped off right from our hotel lobby. We got to the mountain very early but it was good to beat the crowds. Our guide Devid was amazing, he spoke great English and took us to the best viewing spot for the sunrise. Although we were unable to walk around the crater it didn’t matter, we weren’t rushed and still managed to experience the breathtaking views. We then had a Buffett breakfast just down the road and then headed to the waterfall. Again, we beat the crowds and had a lovely quiet refreshing swim underneath the waterfall. Devid took some great photos of us and the whole day ran extremely smoothly. Couldn’t recommend enough!!

A BIG day of epic proportions

A great time!!! Hotel pick-up at midnight is a rough one, but throughout the day makes it all worthwhile. Be prepared to do LOTS of steps on your fitbit! Our guide Trista was amazing, helpful, thoughtful and great fun! I was slightly under the weather but Trista was very considerate. Highlight of this trip for me was the waterfall! Stunning!

Foggy but still worthy

We are a 3 ppl group, and it’s a perfect size for this trip! The view is amazing, even though it’s pretty foggy at the moment, but it gave us a complete diff vibe and beauty! More walking in the moon with no others ppl (bcuz of the fog). The tour guide and driver are super professional, highly recommended😁

Seamless Experience

The trip was amazing. Our guide Via and driver(s) provided a seamless experience. Mt Bromo was missing at sunset, but the clouds parted to be able look into the volcano. The real surprise, was the adventure of seeing the tallest waterfall in Java. It is really worth the effort.

Female Solo Traveler Experience

From the start of the trip to the end was an amazing experience. This is my first time traveling solo as a female and it was very pleasant! My tour guide, Via is very warm & welcoming! She is also very knowledgeable. The driver, Budy was also super nice & knowledgeable as I have a lot of queries. Overall, I had an amazing time and I am glad I chose IDN Trip Experiences for my first solo travel!

Marvelous experience!

From the very beginning, the experience was amazing. The customer service was unparalleled, Bundi reached out to confirm everything and patiently answered all of my many questions. Our guide, Ifa, was incredible throughout the entire tour. She was kind, helpful, and genuinely supportive, going far beyond what anyone would expect. She made the tour absolutely perfect, and our whole group sincerely appreciated her. Everyone involved was wonderful, friendly, energetic, and committed to making the tour fun and memorable. The fee covered everything listed and more. The food, accommodations, and all arrangements were handled beautifully. Thank you, big boss man Bundi! We were only here for a few days, and this jam-packed tour made every moment worth it, even during the low season (November). There were plenty of people around, but it never felt crowded or overwhelming, a testament to the thoughtful planning and excellent guidance. I truly can’t recommend this tour enough. It’s a complete, well-rounded experience that anyone can enjoy. Thanks again!

Operator response

Thank you so much for this glowing review! It was such a pleasure having your group join us this past November. We are thrilled to hear that Bundi took great care of you from the start and that Ifa made such a positive impact on your trip. She is indeed a star on our team, and I’ll be sure to pass along your kind words to both of them—I know "big boss man" Bundi will be grinning from ear to ear! We’re glad that even during the low season, our planning helped you see the best of the area without the crowds. Creating a "worth it" experience for our guests is exactly why we do what we do. Safe travels on your next adventure, and we hope to see you again soon!

Unforgettable moments

We picked this tour because our time was short and we wanted to see the most of East Java in one day. This was the only one day trip we saw offering Mount Bromo sunrise and a trip to Java's tallest waterfall all in one day. Our experience was everything we hoped for and much more. Our guide Alef and driver Budi made us feel comfortable on the long ride and anticipated our needs. We were particularly impressed with how safely he drove and this gave us peace of mind. Alef guided us to the best places to take photos, shared lots of really interesting information about the local area and showed genuine warmth and curiosity.

Operator response

Thank you so much for choosing us for your day trip! We know how precious travel time is, so we are thrilled that we could help you tick both Mount Bromo and the Madakaripura Waterfall off your bucket list in a single day. I will be sure to pass your kind words along to Alef and Budi. They take great pride in making sure our guests feel safe and well-informed, so hearing that Budi’s driving gave you peace of mind and that Alef’s local insights added to your experience means the world to them. Safe travels on your next adventure, and we hope to see you back in Java someday!
