I’ve done Rinjani twice with Rudi Trekker, once 3 day 2 night from Senaru, the other time 2/1 from Sembulum side. Both times were perfect. They lent me shoes and jumpers (but bring your own if possible), torches, etc., and the food and camping was great. I saw trekkers with other companies with no flashlights, bad footwear, no food, missing guides and porters, etc. that Rudi’s company just wouldn’t let happen. Rudi’s guides and porters did very thing to make sure you enjoyed your climb and we’re as comfortable as possible. And they actively reduce waste on the mountain, (the one disappointing part of the trip) which I hear has improved the situation for everyone since I was there 3 years ago. Thinking of a 3rd climb for my 58th b’day. BTW, it’s hard a hard trek but soo worth it!! Cheers, Rob.…

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and the over-night hike up Mt Rinjani with Rudy Trekkers. Antok was very well organised and very friendly. Our transport, accommodation in Senaru, guiding up Rinjani and overnight camp on the crater rim were professionally organised and happened like magic. Our guide and our driver were knowledgeable, friendly and affable. The accommodation, swimming pool and wifi were excellent in Senaru. The meals on the hike were amazing, especially considering the conditions for preparing them. We were even given a suite to clean up in after the hike. When my partner was delayed by a cancelled flight they made two trips across Lombok to pick us up individually so that I would not have to spend the day waiting at Lombok airport! Rudy Trekkers would have to be one of the best Rinjani guides, if not the best. PS You should be prepared to tip the guides and porters if you are happy with them. Suggested tips are $25 US for guide and $15 US for porters.…

So glad I went with Rudy Trekker for my hike. I had a great time hiking up to Mount Rinjani's crater rim with one of Rudy Trekker's guide, Agus who keeps making sure we're okay, cracked jokes with me and doesn't mind my taking numerous breaks for photos etc. :D From airport pick up, overnight stay at the guest house, food prepared during the hike by the wonderful porters, tent set up, cleaning up afterwards at camp site, post hike shower and transportation to the Gilis, it was seamless and perfect for me. Thank you Agus, Antok and Rudy for making this trip a memorable one. See you again!…

My son and I did a Rinjani trek with Rudy Trekker in late November and found this trek to be our best adventure yet! Rudy Trekker is very professional and its staff (guide and porters) take really good care of us throughout the trek. Thank you, Rudy Trekker!

We did the 2D/1N trek with Rudy trekker and found it really good value for money. Our guide Mohamed was extremely helpful and made the trip really enjoyable. We went with this company after positive reviews about them catering to plant based eaters and found they catered to us really well spending time discussing in depth what we could eat prior to departure. The trek is well worth it and the views at the top are incredible. Mohamed and our porters were also happy to accommodate our desire to move quickly down from the top on the second day to make a fast boat.…
