Great trip, and intense! - This trip was amazing. Our tour guide Tony and his driver were lovely, was an enjoyable experience. They helped us get a medical form on the day and gave us all the equipment we would need. The views were stunning and once in a lifetime. We must say though, please prioritise rest before this trip. The trek takes around 4 hours total, and is pretty tiring, you definitely need a good level fitness!!

It was so fun - I participated in the Ijen tour. It was a natural phenomenon and I did not see it at its best, but it was nice to be able to experience nature in the shortest time possible on a package tour.
Also my driver Rizal was very helpful. I would like to request him again next time when I book a tour with this company

A great trip to Ijen crater - Great trip up to Ijen crater with driver (Rizal) and guide (Nido). Very friendly and helpful, fantastic views at the top. Nido is an excellent photographer who took lots of great videos and photos and knew all the best places for views and photos. Unfortunately we weren't able to see the blue fire as it too dangerous.

Amazing Ijen Hike - Me and my girlfriend had the most amazing experience with our wonderful tour guide Tony and our driver Mr Rizal.
It was very well organised with a timely pickup and handing of gas mask, head torch, hot drinks, water and snacks. Tony was very prompt and managed to get us right at the front of the trek and away from the large crowd for a more peaceful experience.
The hike into Ijen crater itself was tough and a lot of caution needs to be advised when walking the rock path down as it can be very slippery with little safety features. However, the blue flames were breathtaking to see.
The sunrise portion of the trek was also lovely as Tony took us to a secluded area to watch the sunrise which was breathtaking with a lovely view of Java and a mesmerising view of the crater from distance.
Overall, an experience worth the money. I also want to say a special thank you to Tony who went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable and to have a laugh.

One of the best Tours I have been - This is definitely one of the best tours I have done !
I'm so soo glad I have booked with them because they made the day more special than what already was!
My partner and I did the hike on the day of my Birthday and my partner proposed to me on the top looking at the crater.
Our guide help us all the way and was extremely kind , helpful and just such a nice person . He made sure we saw the blue fires ( you have to be quite quick going up the hike if you want to make sure you see them as they go away when the sun goes up) , so he helped us all the way along and took many pictures and video for us at the blue fire .
He recorded the proposal and had all the patience for us to be in the moment and enjoy the place.
On the way down , when we reached the camp ground , our guide give me a Birthday cake as a surprise and sang me Happy Birthday which was so nice of him and I will never forget how special they made me feel. We also went to fruit market and our guide got me delicious fruit to try and bot me a bag to take home !
If you want to have the best time and someone that cares about the small things, I recommend them 10000% and you will not regret it !
Thank you so much for being part of this amazing day

Awesome Ijen with Nido and Dika - The trip was truly amazing. We enjoyed not only the beautiful views of the Ijen and its surrounding but also the companion of two wonderful people Nido and Dika. Thank you guys for your professionalism, positive vibes and almost unlimited time at the top of the volcano. Nido was the best guide that we’ve ever had. He was attentive, cheerful and every step of the way he made sure that we are happy

Great tour with Nido, the best guide ever - The organisation with East Java Paradise Travel was easy and very uncomolicated.
We were picked up in our hotel on time and with Nido we had the best guide we ever had. He was funny, caring, and shared his experiences with us. He also helped us with translation so that we could buy some local fruits there. We had a great hike to the blue fire and were the happy ones who saw it. Thanks, Nido for this great experience.
