“Excellent experience from booking to drop off. We received a message from the local trekking company the day before detailing everything we needed to know, what to bring, what to expect, and when to be ready. Almost immediately after we got a message from our private driver, Mangku Angga, confirming pick up time and location. Excellent communication. Mangku was waiting on us the next morning and was excellent.

Our guide up the mountain was fantastic as well. He kept the group together,…”
