Absolutely amazing day taken by Trista!! We are a family of 4 who wanted to do brom with a 1yr old and 4yr old. Was slightly nervous of the midnight start with two young kids but everything went seamlessly! Not only was Trista an angel with our children she made everything flow so smoothly that the kids were never tired or upset waiting too long etc. she had all the good spots for photos and her presence made everything impeccable! Thankyou Trista!!! We’ll talk about this for years 🙌
One of my must-to-do-list's was resolved by this one day tour. Must-to-do in Eastern Indonesia. Price, much cheaper than large size pizza in New York.
The Sunrise was hidden by fog, but mount Bromo was still Impressive! The misty atmosphere made it feel mysterious, teh landscape is unique and exploring the sea of sand and crater was an amazing experience despite the weather. Hearing the volcano rumbling while standing hear the crater, we felt earth is breathing this is incredible and a little surreal. Tour guide Alef and driver Budi are so friendly and responsive. Alef gave us more introduction of the scenes and also gave us valuable inputs of interesting places of city Malang although it is not including in the trip. The day trip was worthy to wake-up earlier in midnight.
We had a great experience throughout the entire trip, starting from midnight and finishing by mid-day. Our tour guide, Mr. Asnaf, was young, polite, and very accommodating. He really made the whole journey enjoyable.
Thank you so much for the lovely 5-star review! 🌟 We’re really happy to hear you had such a great experience from start to finish. Starting at midnight isn’t always easy, so it means a lot to know the trip still felt smooth and enjoyable for you. And yes — Anaf will be so happy to hear your kind words!

What an amazing experience to see the sunrise at Mount Bromo. It was very surreal to look into an active volcano. We had a great lunch on our way to see the most beautiful waterfalls I’ve only seen in the movies. We would love to thank Anur who was a fantastic guide who took care of us from start to finish. She spoke English very well and was very knowledgeable about the area and history. She even made us a video of our trip. The only suggestions I would make for this tour is to understand there is lots of walking and stairs to climb. I would also recommend bringing hand sanitizer for the bathrooms.
Thank you so much for the amazing review! 🌄 We’re glad you enjoyed the sunrise at Bromo and the waterfalls—it really does feel like a movie scene. Anur will be so happy to hear your kind words; she loved guiding your trip. Great tips about the walking, stairs, and hand sanitizer—super helpful for other travelers. Hope to see you again for another adventure in Indonesia!
Very nice experience, particularly everything well arranged. Not annoying to be picked up from Surabaya from midnight. Being able to sleep well in the car.
Thank you so much for your lovely review! 🌸 We’re so glad to hear you had such a beautiful experience and that everything went smoothly. Happy to know the midnight pick-up from Surabaya worked well and you could rest in the car before the adventure. Hope to see you again for another trip soon! 🚙✨
We had a fantastic tour Witz pur guide Nadal. We was very kind and funny. We had to worry about nothing during our trip. Everything was prepared. We saw breathtaking nature, a beautiful sunrise at the mountain, than had a great swim at the waterfalls, which felt like being in a movie. It was a dream! We totally recommend the tour! Just sleep the day before because it starts at midnight;) Terima kasi!
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! 🌟 We’re thrilled to hear that you had such a fantastic experience with our guide Nadal. He’ll be so happy to know his kindness and humor made your trip even more memorable. It’s great that you enjoyed the breathtaking sunrise and the magical waterfall swim—those really are moments that feel like a dream. We couldn’t agree more about the tip to rest well before the midnight start—it makes the adventure so much smoother! Terima kasih again for choosing us and for recommending our tour. We’d love to welcome you back for another adventure whenever you’re in Indonesia.
Our guide, Ifa, was waiting in plenty of time at the lobby of our hotel. A skilled driver took us to where the 4x4s were waiting. We then continued our journey to a local cafe where food and drinks were provided early in the morning. We had four children with us, and Ifa was incredibly sweet! She chatted with them and really connected with them. This was very important to us. After we had a drink and something to eat, we walked up the mountain for about 10 minutes. Ifa had a fantastic spot for us with a front-row view. And what a view! Phenomenal. After sunrise, we walked back towards the 4x4s. There was a line of vehicles (we weren't the only ones, of course), and after waiting about 20-30 minutes, we were ready to drive. Back down towards the volcano/mountain plain. That was a great opportunity for some extra photos and videos. We skipped climbing Bromo because of the kids, but it was certainly offered and explained to us. Ifa was there with us every step of the way. We had breakfast at a restaurant and then headed back. A fantastic experience with Ifa as a super sweet and smart guide. Highly recommended for everyone!
Thank you so much for your wonderful 5-star review! 🌟 We’re delighted to hear that you and your family had such a memorable experience with Ifa. She truly has a special gift for connecting with guests—especially children—and we’re so glad you felt well taken care of throughout the journey. It’s great to know you enjoyed the sunrise spot, the photo opportunities, and the flexibility of the tour to suit your family’s needs. Your kind words mean a lot, and we’ll be sure to share your feedback with Ifa—she will be thrilled to hear it! We hope to welcome you and your family again in the future for another adventure (maybe next time the kids will be ready to climb Bromo 😉).
