Great 2D1N Bromo trip with Smartine and guide Didik - Had a fantastic trip! Coordination in advance was very pleasant and smooth via email. We wanted to start in Surabaya and end in Malang. This was no problem at all. After making the deposit (tip: Revolut or similar app), you still assume that someone will pick you up at your hotel. In our case, this turned out to be Didik. And we couldn't have asked for a better driver/guide! Via whatsapp he already got in touch a day in advance. Didik speaks good English, was always ready for the agreed time, is very social and thanks to him we had a very nice time!

A great excursion from Surabaya - The discovery of the waterfall is fabulous. We were accompanied by a friendly local guide. The hotel has an extraordinary view of the volcanoes and the sea of sand. The 4x4 circuit is worth the detour. We were accompanied during these two days by a attentive driver.

Bromo relaxed 2D/ 1N - We had a fantastic tour with a lot of fun at the waterfall (be prepared to getting thoroughly wet!) and an unforgettable sunrise in the Bromo region. Thanks to Vinda for organising this trip for us and the quick and smooth communication beforehand. A special thanks goes to our driver Yuli who was super friendly, good humoured and very knowledgeable. It was clear that he knows his way around, knows every bump on the road and all his people. He made the trip very easy for us and explained everything needed in a clear way. Thanks to him we had a fantastic and hassle-free trip. Highly recommended!

Peaceful sunrise hike with guide - Everything about my tour went really well from the pick up at Surabaya airport to the drop off at the train station. I had Mr Budi as my driver and he was a great host and nice guy. What I liked most about this tour company and my experience is I specifically requested a guide take me away from the crowds to enjoy a peaceful sunrise and that is exactly what I got. My guide for the hike was named Lucky and he took me on a cool hike starting in the village in darkness that ended in a perfect spot overlooking Bromo in time for first light. This is one of those situations where local knowledge makes a huge difference and ensures you get the experience you came for. I have already recommended this hiking to sunrise option to friends and would not hesitate to do so again.

Bromo is definitely worth it! - I have mixed feeling but both our guide Didin and the volcano did the job! Ups: - Guide Didin very friendly. Was waiting for us at Surabaya station with some fruits. He gave us informations about Java, bought us some local fruits (coconut, sugar cane, snake fruits, etc) and he could show us the best spots at Bromo volcano. - we had a big van for our family of 4. Since we had a long road between Bromo and Ketapang harbour, we had a lot of space in the van. The kids could sleep after the very early wake up to see Bromo. - the sunrise views on Bromo are just amazing and are totally worth the early wake up. Downs: A little disappointed with the Smartline agency. - I had to remind them of my train tickets that they had to buy from Yogja to Surabaya - They did not inform us that Ijen volcano was closed though we had booked a 3 days/2 nights tour. By chance, I heard from a local guide in Yogja that the Ijen volcano was closed and I was the one contacting Smartline for an update. Luckily, I was able to modify our travel arrangements for the rest of our trip but I think that a travel agency should keep clients informed about such important informations. - The hotel that the agency booked for us was really low standard and badly situated due to a late booking on their side. Initially, they proposed Lava Cafe which is not high standard but right at the entrance of Bromo. Finally, we ended up in Lava hill resort which is at a much lower altitude which means that you need to wake up about 1 hour earlier!
