      Stunning hike up Mount Rinjani
      My wife and I had the most amazing time in Lombok on the 3D2N Rinjani Trek. Rudi was our guide and he is one of the most kind hearted people we have ever met! Rudy and our two porters could not have been more generous and helpful. Everything was taken care of so all we had to do was focus on hiking and enjoying the stunning views. They were constantly offering delicious Indonesian coffee (Kopi) and more snacks/ water than you could possibly need. You will not go hungry with Rudy. He cooks the most delicious food... and plenty of it! Honestly, I have no idea how he cooks such wholesome, tasty food on the side of a mountain with a little camping stove. The mountain itself is stunning! As you ascend, you hike through such a variety of landscapes and vegetation. The crater lake is so iconic and like nothing I have seen before, and the surrounding landscape makes for stunning panoramic views. I would 100% recommend this tour. Thank you to Jou, Rudy and the rest of the team for an unforgettable experience. P.s. As a side note, Lombok is such a beautiful island and I would highly recommend staying on after your hike to relax.

      Amazing Mount Rinjani trek
      Myself and my two friends went with Lombok Volcano Trekking and we are so glad we did. We were picked up from our hostel which was over an hour away from Mount Rinjani, given breakfast and any extra clothing we might have needed, e.g. warm jackets. We then met our guide, Nas, who was amazing. He helped us the whole way and was so friendly and kind. He carried drinks for us and lots of chocolate snacks! and made sure we had ponchos for when it rained. We stopped for lunch half way up that our amazing porters had carried up and cooked for us - the food was great. At the top our tents were up for when we arrived (again all carried by the porters) and were great quality, as were the sleeping bags and pillows - we were warm all night. We had a table and chairs set up outside our tent for us to enjoy the lovely food which they made for us for tea. Breakfast in the morning was great and filling for the day ahead and we had lunch waiting for us when we got to the bottom. We then got driven back to our hostel afterwards. I would highly recommend using Lombok Volcano Trekking for a really enjoyable and unforgettable experience. 10/10!

      Incredible experience with the best porters and guides around
      A friend and I just completed the 3D2N Rinjani Trek and it was absolutely amazing! The hike is stunning, with a long but incredibly rewarding second day. We chose Lombok Volcano Trekking because the reviews were so high and Jou was so helpful and responsive via WhatsApp beforehand. The company did not disappoint! Our guide Rudi and porters Andy and Dule were brilliant. So friendly and accommodating; constantly bending over backwards “to make us happy”. (Their words!) By the end of the trip, we were sad to part ways with them - it felt like we’d become a family! The company were very flexible. They accommodated our request to sleep in separate tents, and accommodated my vegan dietary requirements (whilst still providing my friend with meat / eggs etc!) They also managed to cook fantastic food each day (in copious amounts) - no one can possibly be hungry with those guys around! Finally - we were 2 girls on our own, and felt completely safe. The guides were totally professional. Don’t delay and book this trip with these guys - I have made memories that will last a lifetime thanks to them.

      Unforgettable experience
      Amazing experience - We did the 3days 2nights tour with Lombok Volcano Trekking and were more than happy with this incredibly well organised company. They provide you with everything you could possibly need - on the mountain.our guide Josi he was so helpful and kind to us throughout and we would never have made it to the top without him even carrying my backpack when I struggled and was so patient with us. Our porters were super nice & friendly and always up for a laugh. Another big surprise was the food (including fresh fruit and hot tea/coffee at all times) which was very tasty and there was always plenty for everyone! If you are considering trekking on Mount Rinjani go with Lombok volcano Trekking, you'll be in the best hands possible!

      Fantastic service and unforgettable experience!
      My experience hiking Rinjani was incredible. The porters and guides worked incredibly hard. Lombok Volcano Trekking price included pickup and drop off anywhere on Lombok, one night stay in a room in Senaru the night before the hike, During trekking the equipment are all well prepared by them, clean tents clean sleeping bags, plenty of water, snacks, food (a lot of food) and the food are so nice, big portion, well displayed, and of course delicious, fruits will be served after your meal. Don't hesitate to book the trek with Lombok volcano trekking! Great staff and great organization ! And they care about the environnement!! which is not the case for all the agencies, Overall, I would highly recommend trekking with this company!

      best thing we did on our Indonesian trip.
      We signed up for the 3 day Mt Rinjani trek with lombok volcano trekking company It was by far the best thing we did on our Indonesian trip. The views as you walk down to the lake are by the best I have ever seen and you also get a real range of landscape with the volcano, hot springs, forests etc. Our guide Joe and the porters did a really good job. We had a lot of fun on the challenging way. We didn't expect such delicious meals. Equipment was also good. Had a really good time and leave this place full of great memories and photos. If you are going to do the Rinjani trek, definitely choose lombok volcano trekking!

      Lombok volcano the best trekking agency
      We were 4 friends who did the 3 days 2 nights trek to Mt. Rinjani summit via Sembalun.It was very good time and we choose the right travel agent for trekking at Mount Rinjani. Jou reply e-mail very fast and pay attention to my every questions. Guide and porters took care of us very well. They are very kind and friendly and very helpful. Food is very good during trekking, we had very great experience from the great team of Lombok Volcano Trekking Team, It is also one of the few agencies respectful of the environment. All the trash we produced was collected and brought back to Senaru (while we saw many other porters and guides leaving garbage everywhere in the camp-sites). Our guide was even collecting garbage left by others on the way! Impressive !! I would definitely recommend this agency.

      Great Hike with Lombok Volcano Trekking
      We took the two days one night trekking package with Lombok Volcano Trekking, organising all transport from our hotel, to organising accommodation the night before, to helping us organise walking boots & jackets. Our guide was super friendly and helpful, and the food the porters cooked was incredible (how they carry all that stuff up the mountain in unbelievable) Our tent was set up with a beautiful view of sunset. We couldn't have had a better experience, we'll recommend everyone to do this trek with lombok volcano trekking, everything was top notch.

      Amazing Hike
      We did the 2days 1nights hike to the crater rim with lombokvocono.com and we thought it was fantastic! Our guide and the porters were very nice and did everything to give us the best experience. the food and service they provided was incredible, I still don’t know how they manage to cook the food they do.The hike itself was also totally worth it, we loved the view from the crater rim. We didn’t bring any jackets but we could use two spare jackets, trekking poles from them, If you’re considering it- just book it. You won’t regret it.

      Lombok volcano is the best company to book with!
      We did 3Days trek with Lombok Volcano Trekking, Everything about this trip was excellent  from start to finish. The guide and porters were absolutely fantastic and friendly. They cooked delicious food and did their best to make sure that we had a great trip. and they also provided smooth transportation before and after the trek. We were very happy with the service. Mount Rinjani is a truly amazing place and the trek was (and still is) the most difficult challenge I have faced so far. Make sure you have a decent level of fitness before attempting this trek. I highly recommend this tour operator and this journey.

      Lombok Volcano Trekking
      The package is excellent. we were alone with a guide and two porters on 2 days 1 night adventure. The views on the top of the mountain are amazing and worth every step. All food is prepared and brought accordingly with plenty of water and snacks along the way. Everything were well organised. They care about all your needs and how they are cooking during this trip like 5star restaurant)) I wish to have one more stomach to be able to eat everything they cooked for us. Tent and sleeping bag is good enough to keep you warm. Mattress and pillow are also catered for. We definitely recommend Lombok Volcano Trekking for this tour.

      Lombok Volcano Hike
      We did the 2 day one night hike through Lombok Volcano and had a fantastic trekking experience. The tour was well-organized from beginning to end. And the team from Lombok Volcano added to this. The service was fantastic – from the airport pick up and comfortable stay at lighthouse to the trek itself. Our guide, Din was great, and I can’t thank him enough for his help when I struggled at times with the challenging terrain. A big thank you to our porters, as well, who made sure our camp was comfortable and that we were well fed and looked after. It’s amazing what they can do on a gas cooker in the middle of nowhere! I highly recommend Lombok Volcano and thank them for giving us an incredible experience!

    We embarked on a 2D1N Senaru crater rim trek. Many individuals suggested commencing from Senaru to relish the lake and the breathtaking sunset, as it is more convenient and comfortable. During the extensive day hike, we traversed the rainforest, which was shaded and uncrowded. We arranged our trek with Lombok volcano Trekking, a trekking agency, and they proposed a very fair price. The service was outstanding, and the guide and porter were extremely amiable, supportive, and adept in photography. The trekking gear provided ensured our warmth on the mountain. We wholeheartedly endorse this for a private, well-organized, and enchanting experience.

    We opted for the 2-day, 1-night package from Senaru Village to the Crater Rim as a great choice for those seeking a memorable experience and stunning views without the need to reach the summit of Mount Rinjani.

    Thanks to exceptional organization and dedicated staff, every aspect of this journey was thoroughly enjoyed. The meals were exquisite, and the scenery was truly awe-inspiring!

    Special recognition goes out to our guide Kerno, as well as our porters Siwadi and Ridasih for their outstanding service.

    2D-1N

    Started our day meeting the guide and the team early am (Around 6 am). They were well prepared with all our paraphernalia needed. (Tents/poles/fresh food for our lunch otw and breakfast at the rim). 3 porters accompanied us carrying 30-40 kgs on their shoulders wearing flip flops.

    We were fed freshly made pancakes for breakfast and headed to the trek Basecamp to start our exhilarating 8 Hr hike to the rim. Guides helped us thruway and preparing us mentally post to post and feeding us a sumptuous lunch in the woods.

    Have to say this expedition ain’t for a faint heart. Inclinations were getting challenging as we reached halfway only to find out the last 2 hours was traversing thru large boulders and steep climbs and we lucked out with the weather being cloudy . (Def recommend good hiking shoes to keep your ankles intact).

    As we reached the top of the rim around 5 pm we were blown away by the incredible Panoramic views. While we were enjoying our views we were surprised to see all our tents/tables were ready and dinner preparations well underway.

    We were told one of the porters had to come pretty early to get the best spot due to limited availability.

    It was getting a bit chilly/windy so had to layer up and were given hot ginger tea to keep us warm. The sunset and its orange hues that lit up the area was so healing and therapeutic as it slowly became dark around 7 pm !

    Dinner was ready with freshly made local delicacies (hot soup/curry/rice/fresh cut fruits) and we wasted no time to savor them and retire for the night tucking into our cozy sleeping pads and tents.

    We woke up around 6 am as the dawn was breaking with a clear sky to soak in more of the views. Porters were up early and already prepared a good breakfast before we could prepare our decent.

    We started our decent around 7 am and took us 5 hours to get to the base. Personally going downhill was the most daunting task and had to use both hiking poles to keep my weight of the knees.

    All in all we were glad to be accompanied and guided by this incredible group who made this trip more relaxing and fulfilling !

    Thank you for arranging the Rinjani trip. 2d/1n was the perfect package for my schedule. I would highly recommend Adi Trekker for a private trip arrangement to Rinjani Summit, they got it all covered!!

    - The porter team was kind and friendly, very strong and responsive (and walked fast 👍). All needs were planned and executed perfectly. The food was delicious, healthy, and tailored to requests.
    - Adi was responsive and communicative to all questions during the preparation, making the trip comfortable.
    - The resort arranged was super comfortable with very helpful staff and matched the schedule. The resort was awesome, not to be underestimated.
    - Ian the documenter really pushed to the limit to ensure the documentation was achieved. With his struggles and thin jacket, he still made it to the summit.
    - Transportation, administration, and everything else were perfect.
    - Most of all, the guide was top-notch. Mas Cakra was indeed an excellent guide. He catered to the customer's needs, arranged everything to make the guests comfortable, gave tips for passing sandy areas, was very experienced on the trail, cleaned up trash (including monkey trash) on the way, was fun to run downhill with, and was very humble and helpful.

    Overall, it was a great short break for me, well planned, well executed, and well worth the effort to fly to Rinjani. Thank you to the entire team involved in this trip.

    Had a couple days time during my visit to Lombok so decided to book a short 2D1N trek to Mount Rinjani rim. This is the easier one as we don't go all the way to the summit.

    Was a quiet day, so just me and my guide Lim and our porter Tedi in our party, though there were other parties going up and down those days. Overall, not too crowded, which was just fine for me.

    The weather was excellent, on the day up it was a bit cloudy but it gave breathtaking vistas marked by layers of distance. The second day we got as clear as it gets so a different experience going down too.

    Lim and Tedi did great job helping along the way (they cook, and setup camps and everything). Still you should be at least moderately fit to take up this challenge. My leg muscles were aching even several days after the experience, but it was all worth it!

    Just note that this package doesn't include transport between Mataram or elsewhere you might be staying and the foot of the mountain, so you have to sort the transport out yourself. It's about 30 euros from downtown Mataram if you take a taxi. The tour organizer can help you call a return car, usually just somebody in the village, and you can pay them. Or you can opt for one of the other packages that includes pickup and drop-off.

    Beautiful. The climb to the top should not be underestimated. The path is nowhere flat and very steep uphill. In combination with loose sand and temperatures, it can be a challenge for many. Good shoes are essential. Once at the top there is a beautiful view of the lake and the Rinjani mountain. After an overnight stay on the mountain, you descend back to the valley after sunrise.

    The entire trip is well arranged by Lombok Vulcano trekking. You go up together with a guide and 2 porters. Everything is taken care of. Sufficient drinks, snacks and meals. The quality of the meals is very good and more than sufficient. Your tent will be set up on the mountain and a tasty snack will be prepared. The rest of the afternoon and evening you can enjoy the view of the mountain and the surrounding area.

    The next day you will be back in the valley around noon. The transfer to your next destination is also included. We were taken to Gili Air by private car and private boat.

    Recommended to do and book with this local company.

    A show!! A nice but hard bed with a good final reward as the views above are amazing.

    Nothing would have been possible without the help of the boss from the beginning of the trip organization, as we called from Yogyakarta and explained the whole tour. We were picked up at Lombok airport and brought to Senaru. The next day they came after us at the hotel and took us to the office, where we could leave our luggage. Once there the adventure began...

    We had two guides for 4 people, who helped us in everything possible and impossible to reach the crater of the volcano. Personally, for us Benji was very helpful throughout the tour. He was a very friendly and patient Guide, very involved in his work.

    On the other hand, one wants to make a great mention of the porters who do a spectacular job climbing everything necessary to make our trip more comfortable (folding chairs and tables, shops, sacks, food, water, soft drinks, etc.). In addition, they made us meals cooked by themselves in large quantities and gave us fruits and cookies throughout the way.

    Finally, mention that after going down the mountain we should be taken that same day to Bangsal port (as it was included in the price), but since we were dead we decided to sleep another day in Senaru. So they took us to the new hotel, came the next day for us, let us leave the luggage in the office and brought us to the entrance of the Tiu Kelep waterfalls. Later they came to pick us up, picked up our luggage and took us to Bangsal to catch our boat to go to the Gili.

    Anyway... very good people and given to adapt to all your needs.

    A great experience.

    Walking up through first the lush rainforest, then above the treeline shrouded by clouds and finally the volcanic rock on the last push to the crater rim. The route from Senaru gives you the advantage of being shielded from the hot sun. It was hard no doubt for me as a man in my fifties who is healthy but not super fit.However it was such a pleasure being with the brilliant guide Josi who paced things just right for me. And Anton the porter storming up ahead and making up delicious food to fuel the climb. I didn't think about time or distance, just making my way in the moment. It is such a beautiful spellbinding place on the crater rim and a once in a lifetime experience to see the sun go down on Rinjani and it's incredible lake. The return down the mountain was a whole new set of experiences. My legs were weary from the day before but we took our time and Anton crafted the most excellent climbing stick to steady me. The transfer to Senaru and the overnight accom was just right. Once back down I was whisked in a car to Bangsal and hopped on my own private speedboat to Gili Air where I could be relaxing at me beach hut within two hours. A really good package and feel so fortunate to go with Jou's company and have Josi and Anton look after me.

    While the hike was quite tough (aka the hardest hike I’ve ever done), the overall experience was well worth it! The views at the top are magnificent as you look into the crater and the lake and the volcano and as you turn around and look towards the ocean. I cannot express enough the admiration I have for the porters and the guide who do this trek multiple times a week often carrying so much up and down the mountain.

    Rudi, our guide, was knowledgeable of the plants and the animals as we hiked up, he made sure to set a pace that we could all handle and made us feel safe the whole hike up. It was a pleasure getting to know Rudi! Anyone who gets him as a guide should feel very lucky!

    The porters hike up the mountain carrying all of our food, tents, meal prep equipment, sleeping gear, tables, chairs and water. We catch up to them at lunch and at the top, where they have already prepped the table chairs, and food and our tents at the top. Otherwise, they are going up and down at speeds that don’t make sense. Huge props the the porters! It was good getting to know Mool too!

    My wife and I, trekking enthusiasts, could not miss this unique experience, which we would highly recommend to all adventure lovers. The trek is beautiful but very challenging (with a vertical drop of 1600 meters, not suitable for everyone) and winds through the lush jungle of Mount Rinjani. The humidity is high, but we managed to keep a good pace thanks to our Guide Antoine, although nothing compared to the wearers who, with flip-flops because the shoes cost too much, carry on their shoulders huge baskets containing everything needed for meals and tents for us hikers.

    At each stop we were offered a snack, and meals were cooked directly by our Guide and tireless porters. The climb is not particularly scenic, with limited views to the final part. However, the arrival on the crater is simply incredible, with breathtaking views of the volcano and the lake in spectacular colors.

    Dinner and night in a tent are beautiful, accompanied by an unforgettable sunset and sunrise. The descent is very challenging, with hangovers that are felt in the legs for a couple of days, but the experience as a whole is unforgettable and will stay with us for life.
