An Unforgettable Mount Batur Sunrise Experience
We had an amazing experience on the Mount Batur sunrise hike! Everything was very well organized from the beginning. Our driver, Dibya, was extremely kind, punctual, helpful, and made us feel very comfortable throughout the experience. Our guide, Dewi, was absolutely wonderful! She was so friendly, attentive, patient, and made the hike even more special. She took great care of us along the way and made sure we could enjoy every moment of the experience. Watching the sunrise from Mount Batur was unforgettable, and having such a great team made it even better. Thank you so much, Dibya and Dewi! We highly recommend this experience!

10/10 Experience from Start to Finish
We booked this tour and were assigned Dwi as our driver. He was very punctual and the car was extremely clean and comfortable. He made sure we were comfortable throughout the entire journey and was always attentive to our needs. Yus was our guide for the hike, and he was the best guide ever! He made sure we were all doing okay, took breaks whenever we needed them, and made sure we had a safe and enjoyable experience from start to finish. At the summit, he gave us with snacks and hot drinks, and he also offered to take pictures for us. We loved having Yus as our guide and really enjoyed talking with him throughout the hike. He made the whole experience so much more enjoyable. Highly recommend this tour! Both Dwi and Yus provided 10/10 service and truly made the experience special.

Mount Batur Sunrise Trekking: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Ubud.
How much does Mount Batur Sunrise Trekking cost?
+
Prices start at Rp 375,000 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Ubud usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Mount Batur Sunrise Trekking take?
+
Plan for about 10 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Ubud is not rushed.
Is Mount Batur Sunrise Trekking worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 82 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 1,336 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in Ubud, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Mount Batur Sunrise Trekking?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Mount Batur Sunrise Trekking suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 10-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Mount Batur Sunrise Trekking?
+
Around 468 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Ubud can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Ubud and add a light layer if any part of the 10-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Mount Batur Sunrise Trekking start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Ubud within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Ubud?
+
On Outty we rank every Ubud experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Private 1-Day Ubud Highlights Tour, Mount Batur Jeep Adventure, Ubud: Downhill Cycling with Volcano, Rice Terraces and Meal. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Ubud?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Ubud?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
