I did the 3D 2N hike from Sembalun to Torean and it was absolutely amazing, the best hike I have ever done. Our guy Yot was awesome, he gave us a lot of explanations on the area and took many amazing pictures. He checked in on us so often to make sure we were okay. Apart from that he is genuinely a nice guy and we had lots of fun conversations to make the trip a bit more endurable (because it is quite challenging). I also want to highlight the quality of the food prepared by our porters Andre, Awan and Muliadi. Every meal was delicious, and I'm still blown away by how they could prepare such quality food under these conditions. Amazing hike, amazing people which I can highly recommend to anyone who is planning to explore Rinjani!

We had a great time hiking Rinjani with our local guide Sting! Everything was well organized and the hike was just amazing! Very challenging waking up at 2am to climb to the summit for the sunrise but the views are out of this world. Totally recommend doing this.

Rendi, Randy et Ricky nous ont accompagnés sur le 3 nuits / 4 jours du Rinjani — et honnêtement, ce sont eux qui ont fait le voyage.Rendi lisait notre rythme mieux que nous-mêmes : il savait quand nous pousser un peu et quand nous laisser souffler. Randy et Ricky montaient les mêmes pentes avec le double de notre charge, et arrivaient toujours au camp avant nous, thé prêt et sourire aux lèvres.La montée vers le sommet a été la partie la plus exigeante du périple — longue, éprouvante, à se demander par moments ce qu’on faisait là. Puis le soleil s’est levé, et la vue a effacé chaque pas difficile d’un coup. Ça valait absolument l’effort.On s’est aussi sentis encadrés du début à la fin, bien au-delà de la montagne : les transports avant et après le trek étaient inclus et organisés, on n’a jamais eu à se soucier de la logistique. Juste à marcher. Encouragés, en sécurité, entre bonnes mains du premier pas au dernier. Si vous montez le Rinjani, demandez-les. Vraiment.

It was the most beautiful hike I have ever done, the views were so unique and each one had something special to it. It was extremely tough but making it to the summit was all worth it. Our guide, Yot, was so kind, talkative, respectful, funny, helpful and knowledgeable. He really made the experience one of a kind. I recommend anyone hiking Rinjani to go with him. Thank you so much Yot, you are the best!!
