Fantastic trip Bromo Ijen Tour From Yogyakarta

Great experience with JavaIndo Ecotourism. We booked the Bromo-Ijen tour from Yogyakarta, then transfer to Bali (Ubud). Wisnu is very facilitating, very friendly and organized a fantastic stay. Our driver (Jojo) and our guides (Han and Nurul) were great. Special mention for Nurul who took us in good spirits to the summit of Ijen in the middle of the night to watch the sunrise. We recommend 100% JavaIndo Ecotourism!

"Fantastic Experiences on Our Java Bali & Sumba Photography Tour"

As a landscape photographer it was important to find a knowledgeable and adaptable tour operator in Indonesia who could be flexible in understanding our needs to be at a given location for sunrise or sunset. Wisnu and his team helped us plan the perfect trip which led to some superb images being captured Java Bali Sumba Photography . When Mount Ijen was suddenly closed due to volcanic activity Wisnu was able to suggest an equally beautiful location. The flexibility to adjust the itinery was really helpful. Each guide spoke good English and were a pleasure to spend time with. We spent 2 weeks exploring Java, Bali, and even the remote island of Sumba. All perfectly executed. Excellent value for money for a private tour of just 2 people.
