Exceptional experience - We had a great day. Everything perfectly taken care of and arranged by our guide Rahman Zaff! What an exceptional man! Friendly, helpful, and super well-prepared! Where we saw other tours working in a rushed and minimal manner, the quality of our tour came out even better. We can recommend this tour to everyone and if you have the chance, ask Rahman! Amazing!!

Rahman the MVP - Our guide Rahman made this an amazing experience. His English is phenomenal and during the hike itself he was so incredibly patient. My wife is not a hiker but he was patient and never made her feel rushed or hurried. When it came to the blue fire, he let us make an informed decision depending on our comfort with the safety conditions and never pushed us either way. Do not get me started on Rahman’s photography skills because he is MAGIC. I mean quite literally, he said he worked in a photography studio before becoming a guide and it shows. We will be printing these pictures the moment we are home because that is how absolutely Phenomenal they are. It’s not just pictures either because the videos he took are top notch. Chefs kiss. If you want those instagram worthy shots, ask for Rahman. Now let’s get back to the hike. As the hike itself is steep over loose volcanic soil, everyone was slipping and sliding on the descent. Rahman came in and literally saved the day with cramp ons. We were the only ones descending like the pros (aka him). We literally had other hikers asking him if he had extra and they would pay him. I cannot say enough incredible things about Rahman and how HE definitely made the hike. We learned so much about the sulfur mining and the community in general. It was such a pleasurable experience and if you can, ask for Rahman. He is truly the MVP.

Blue lava and Ijen trip - The trip has been amazing, with the essential support of Rahman as a guide. Despite the long way to arrive (2h from the meeting point to the top of the mountain by walk) the view and also the experience worths the effort. Even though the blue lava fire is not natural (at the moment) it still remains a unique experience (also including the sunrise from the top). It’s not required to be trained but for sure a lot of physical effort. In addition the guide (Rahman) has been really kind to support our group, taking care of all, during the trip and taking amazing photos.

Highly recommend - Highly recommend!! Rahman was our tour guide and he was amazing. Everything was arranged for us - we got picked up from our hotel in Bali and dropped off at the ferry port where Rahman met us. The ride to and from Ijen was also already organised, as well as ferry back and the ride back to our Bali hotel. I never book tours online. I always book tours in person through the hotel/hostel so this was my first time booking through tripadvisor. this company made it so easy that I didn’t have to think. I will be recommending them to everyone. Thank you, Rahman. From Alliza and Aljon (Rahman is also an incredible photographer)

Incredible Mount Ijen Tour with Rahman & Rico — Highly Recommended! - Our trip to Mount Ijen from Bali was a truly unforgettable experience, thanks to our amazing team, Rahman and Rico! The Itinerary & Hike • Pickup & Transit: The journey started with a seamless transfer from Bali over to Java via ferry. • Homestay & Early Start: We stayed at a nearby homestay to rest up before the big night. Wakeup was at 00:00 midnight, followed by a 1-hour drive to the trailhead. • The Hike: The night trek is challenging but manageable. Reaching the top to witness the electric blue fire and a stunning sunrise over the crater was pure magic — well worth every step despite the large crowds. Special Thanks to Our Guide and Driver • Rahman (Our Guide): Extremely friendly, helpful, professional, and knowledgeable. His passion for East Java brought so much joy and excitement to our entire trip! • Rico (Our Driver): Kept us safe, comfortable, and right on schedule throughout the long drive.

Super Mount Ijen tour with best guide!! - We did the Mount Ijen Tour with Java Adventure Trail for the second time, the first time in 2019 and we were very excited again. In advance, Sofyan answered all our questions and advised us well. As a guide we had Dhani who picked us up at the ferry at night with a big smile. Dhani was a great guide and we are very glad he did the tour with us! He told us a lot and it felt like we were out with a good friend. He also took great care of us and we always felt safe! From gas masks to flashlights to tea at sunrise, everything was taken care of. Also our driver Rico was super nice! In general, we were very happy that we did the tour again and can only recommend it!
