What To Expect

Set your alarm for an early start, as your day begins with pick-up from your hotel between 1.30am and 2.30am. On arrival at the base of Mount Batur (an around 2.5-hour drive from Kuta or 1.5-hour drive from Ubud), meet your guide and set out on the around 2-hour climb by twilight. After a challenging uphill hike, arrive at the 9,066-foot (1,717-meter) summit between 5.30am and 6am, and reward yourself with a delicious breakfast and hot coffee as you await the sunrise.

Make sure you have your camera ready as you watch the spectacular sunrise over the sacred volcano and admire dazzling views of Lake Batur and the caldera below. After soaking up the scenery, set out on the around 1.5-hour return trek.

At around 9am, jump back in the bus for the around 1-hour drive to the riverside, where you’ll meet your white water rafting instructor. After listening to the safety briefing and learning the basic maneuvers, get suited up in a helmet and life jacket, grab a paddle, and take to the water.

Set out on a thrilling white water rafting excursion, paddling down a 10-mile (16-kilometer) stretch of the river, and tackling Class II and III rapids. Along the way, glide past lush rainforest and cascading waterfalls, pass traditional bamboo bridges and Hindu shrines, and spot wildlife along the waterside. At the end of your experience, you’ll have time to shower and change before sitting down to refuel with a delicious buffet lunch (included) at a local restaurant.

Make one final stop before you return to your hotel – at a Luwak coffee plantation, where you can learn the secrets of the world’s most expensive coffee, and sample a range of Balinese teas and coffees.

Your tour ends with drop-off at your hotel around 4.30pm.

Our guide for the hike itself was amazing, our driver Asta was even better. The rafting itself was a beautiful view but could probably have done without after hiking so early in the morning.. overall amazing experience. Thanks!

Amazing

This tour was amazing. The volcano hike was great and the view was beautiful. Would highly recommend.

Amazing experience

Dana_F, Aug 2019

Loved this excursion. Beautiful views and the rafting was SUPER fun. Things to note: Wear layers on the hike. It starts off and ends up cold and you are very warm while hiking. Layers are key. We are a family of 6 in excellent shape including two current collegiate athletes, and we were sore the next day. The hike is uneven, takes between 1 1/2 and 2 hours each way and you climb some serious elevation. The rafting also involves 400-500 steps down and back up. Your legs will feel it but it is all definitely worth it. The breakfast is extremely modest so don't expect too much. We had our driver take us to food in between activities. Enjoy!

This tour was amazing! But Tiring! The hike was intense and our guide set quite the pace, but got to rest at the top with breakfast and gorgeous view (make sure to pack warm clothes-was freezing in the dark pre-sunrise), coffee plantation was a highlight and so was the rafting! Highly recommend!

Early morning, long trek, cold and I couldn’t breathe. Every bit of it was worth it! The driver was on time, everyone was so friendly and I had a once in a lifetime experience for my birthday. The rafting was also an amazing experience. The guides were funny and I absolutely had a blast!

This was the best part of my trip to Bali. I booked this trip wondering if the early morning and length would be too much. When I woke up my husband at 1am he wasn't feeling well and wanted to cancel and it ended up being the best part of his trip. The guides and drivers were awesome and let us walk slowly since he wasn't feeling well. The sunrise was gorgeous and we got to feel the steam from the volcano and see monkeys who even jumped on our shoulders. Then we went to the coffee plantation which was beautiful and we had the best time touring and tasting and had a yummy Balinease pancake. Our favorite part was the white water rafting. 3 hours seemed long and then we had so much fun it was closer to 4 hours. The most amazing place with lush green trees and forest. The guides were so nice and helpful and the rapids were fun not scary. We had such a great time!
