Bromo/Ijen tour - Great Experience - We did a private tour to Mount Bromo and Ijen and had a fantastic time. Everything was really well organized with smooth transfers and great timing. The routes were well planned to avoid spending too much time in the car, and they were flexible with the itinerary depending on how busy the roads or sights were. Our guide and driver were both super friendly and spoke very good English. We had a great time with them and could talk about everything from everyday life to cultural differences between Indonesia and our home countries. They made the experience feel easygoing and enjoyable throughout. The hikes, especially Ijen, were definitely challenging with the early starts but absolutely worth it for the views. Would absolutely recommend this tour. It was reliable, personal and a great way to experience this part of Indonesia.

Perfect for a Bromo and Ijen combo! - A truly incredible experience with the agency Hélios. We were able to make our trip a bit tailor-made as it suits us. We were able to leave Malang at night to see the sunrise over Bromo from Seruni View Point, walk through fields and caldera and then climb Bromo, all accompanied by a guide. Rest in a magnificent hotel with swimming pool booked by Helios, then the following night, ascent of Mount Ijen with a guide. And finally return by train to our next destination! Everything was so well organized by the agency, as we wanted, our driver had even arranged a pillow to sleep on the night trips, smooth and assured driving. Really positive, it was the only part of the trip for which we made the choice to go through an agency and we do not regret! Another big thank you to Mr Yuli our driver 😁👌🏼

2D1N Tour to Madakaripura Falls, Sunrise @ Seruni Point, and Mt Bromo - 2D1N land tour.. Was picked up at Surabaya Airport and headed off to Madakaripura waterfalls.. We had to take a 1km bike ride to the entrance and walk/trek 2km accompanied by local guide which includes crossing 4 shallow riverbeds to get to the waterfalls and it was well worth it... Might want to get wear solid trekking shoes and beachwear as you will get wet... The guide helped take some nice pics. Following that we drove off to the hotel/lodge and we missed out on the sunset due to heavy fog.. The next day early morning drove off to Seruni point for the sunrise.. Around 2km upslope walk to reach the sunrise point and the view was glorious.. Following that, we headed off to Mt Bromo and it was amazing! Our tour guide and driver Akbar Arif was very friendly and helpful. He accompanied us throughout and helped take cool photos to remember the trip! Highly recommended!

3D2N from Malang to Kawah Ijen between Tumpak Sewu Falls and Mount Bromo. Spectacular landscapes from sunrise to sunset - The stops are worth the trip to Java. The organization was attentive, accurate, precise and punctual, with a guide (Rian) who accompanies you on every excursion and a driver. The tour is tiring, you leave at night or at dawn, having everything perfectly organized allows you to live the experience in serenity. The waterfalls and the Bromo do not require special training while for the Ijen you have to know that it takes about 1.30/2 hours of ascent and then descent. There is often a lot of chaos, once at the top it is not said that you will be able to descend to the crater in time for the blue flames (it takes another 30/40 minutes). The view and the sunrise are still worth the effort. Special mention to our guide Rian, very young but attentive, helpful and kind!

Super trip - highly recommended! - Super trip - would highly recommend! Our guides Rian and Akbar were great and showed us all the highlights east Java has to offer, whilst also telling us about Indonesian culture and guiding us on any questions we had. We were also very impressed by how well organised the tour was and the accomodations that we stayed at, so we would definitely recommend this trip for anyone who wants to experience the best of east Java!

Magical volcano tour - Fabulous tour of Ijen crater and Mount Bromo. From start to finish the tour ran like clockwork. Our driver - Yuli - was excellent. He drove carefully, ensured we were comfortable and was always ready and waiting for us. The guides at each attraction were knowledgeable and attentive. Watching the sunrise from Ijen crater was a magical, once in a lifetime experience. Highly recommend Helios and this tour.

Wonderful, thank you so much! - Thank you Helios Tour for this trip of 3 days, thank you Yuri our driver , thank you Andika our tireless guide. Go there with your eyes closed, the professionalism is incredible, the atmosphere friendly and warm, everything to spend the best of times. We took a 3 day package Sewu-Bromo-Ijen for 4 people. Everything was flexible, everything was possible (reception 6am at Malang station then Sewu, the next day Bromo leaving at 00h, the next day Ijen leaving at 2h (tiring but the price is worth the effort). Once Ijen was finished they dropped us off in Gilimanuk in front of the Ferry entrance, with the tickets taken, the tax paid, a “smuggler” to help us find our taxi on the other side. Inimaginable. And for the little extras, stops peeing, ATM, coffee plantation, extra. Free breakfasts, meals in the best spots, free too. For Sewu we were treated to trails different from those usually given to tourists For Bromo we had very easy access with 4x4s (compared to the mafia prevailing on site), For Ijen the same with the small tips temperatures and gas mask. We also have a thought for special attention like Yuri who drove very peacefully so we could sleep, Andika who runs to buy masks to help us breathe better under Bromo dust... By taking Helios Tour you have the certainty to spend an unforgettable human stay, thank you very much Yuri, thank you very much Andika. Maybe I'll see you again!
