We did the 4-day / 3-night tour with JVTO and we loved it! Before we left, Kawah Ijen was closed. But two days before the tour started, they announced it was reopening. The admin team changed our whole itinerary so we could visit Ijen. That was really great of them. Holili was our driver and Guffron was our guide. Both were very friendly and always attentive to our needs. We were looked after from start to finish, and everything was very professional. We also had great chats with Guffron about local life and the best places to see. Guffron took a lot of beautiful pictures and gave us amazing memories. Our trip wouldn't have been the same without them. To sum up: 5 stars for the organization, 5 stars for the places we visited, and 5 stars for the human experience. We highly recommend this tour!
