A few helpful reminders:
To help everyone travel safely and return from the tour smoothly and happily, our company asks all guests to assist with and comply with the following requirements:
First: If you are dissatisfied with the vehicle or the meal is not filling enough, please tell the tour leader on the spot and ask them to arrange extra food or discuss changing vehicles.
Second: The boat trip from Nusa Penida operates on fixed boat schedules, much like flights. If you miss the return boat, there will be no other one. When traveling as a group, please allow enough time for photos. To avoid missing the boat, the guide and tour leader will be sure to urge everyone to gather on time for the return trip. Thank you for understanding.
Third: For any activities you choose to pay for locally, you may negotiate with the relevant providers and choose freely within a price range you find acceptable. We cannot accept complaints after you have chosen and paid for an activity because you later feel the price was unsuitable or your personal experience was unsatisfactory.
Fourth: If guests ask the guide or tour leader to recommend restaurants or local specialties, the guide may make recommendations. Please choose according to your own needs.
Fifth: Safety comes first on group trips, and our agency is responsible for everyone's safety. Bali is a right-hand-drive destination, and local traffic and road conditions are very complex and dangerous. Group members are strictly prohibited from renting motorcycles and driving themselves locally. If anyone violates this rule, our agency has the right to terminate the contract and accepts no responsibility if anything goes wrong.
Sixth: Please complete the local feedback form truthfully, regardless of what the tour leader or guide says.

Tour Information
Important information for all itineraries (standard information that applies to the entire trip, not to any specific itinerary; see the details for your itinerary
The specific terms are subject to the actual itinerary.)
1. Please keep your personal belongings safe while traveling and carry valuables with you. Be sure to exchange cash into Indonesian rupiah in advance (US dollars, RMB, and cards are not useful). If you really need to exchange money, speak to the driver as soon as you arrive. The driver can take you to withdraw or exchange money near the airport (exchange rates may vary). Please do not display your money or entrust it to the driver. You can leave your suitcase in the car when you get out, but be sure to keep cash and other valuables close to you. If anything is lost or stolen, we will help you report it to the police;
2. You can set up international roaming on your phone in advance. If you need a local SIM card, you can first connect to the airport's free Wi-Fi upon arrival to stay in touch. You can register for a local SIM at the airport using your valid passport and phone. Each phone and SIM card is linked to the corresponding passport. The telecom shops inside the airport mainly serve travelers and are more experienced and efficient. Unlike a few shops outside, they are also less likely to take advantage of foreigners who are unfamiliar with local practices. So the safest option is to get your SIM at the airport and check that mobile data works before leaving the airport to meet the driver;
3. Women traveling should preferably bring in advance any items needed for their period, such as ibuprofen and sanitary pads, as well as fever and cold medicine. These items are very inconvenient to buy locally and are expensive;
4. Indonesia is a tipping country. Tips of around IDR 2,000 are charged for using local toilets or changing rooms. A tip of IDR 50,000 is recommended for scenic area guides. After the driver service for the entire trip is completed, a tip of IDR 100,000 per person is recommended. Tips are given only after the service is completed and are not mandatory;
5. During the trip, if you notice anything that does not match the itinerary, need to adjust the itinerary, or have difficulty communicating with the driver, please report it immediately in the Chinese-language service group or to the booking office. We will coordinate or address it as soon as possible. Reports made after the trip ends will not be accepted.
6. During the trip, please check your personal belongings carefully in the vehicle and at the hotel. Before leaving, be sure to check three times that you have not left anything behind. If an item is lost, the local operator will first help verify where it is and who has it (you must provide the place and time the item was lost). Once the details have been confirmed, there are generally three options: 1. Ask the hotel or guide to arrange for a driver to deliver it. The vehicle fare and driver’s service fee will be calculated based on the distance. Based on past experience, the cost starts at RMB 600; delivery will be arranged if you agree. 2. The local operator will provide you with the address and contact number, and you will need to contact a courier, logistics company, or arrange another way to retrieve the item online. Any related costs are your responsibility. 3. If there are Chinese guests taking the same itinerary later, ask them to bring it back for you, if they are willing. You will negotiate the service fee with them directly; we can help provide their WeChat contact.
7. Depending on the actual circumstances of the itinerary, factors such as local religious festivals and celebrations, protests or demonstrations, traffic jams, weather changes, landslides or mudslides, and other guests in a shared tour may require the guide or driver to adjust the itinerary order or departure time. This will be done to ensure the trip runs smoothly, without adding or removing any of the scheduled attractions.
Important information for Surabaya
After pickup, transfer directly to the Mount Bromo area. The next few days will be tiring, so please make sure you get a good night's rest at home before departure. After arriving at the jeep meeting point, you may need to wait 30 minutes to 1 hour because the mountain road is narrow and the large number of jeeps can easily cause traffic jams. The driver will escort you to the jeep and then wait at the parking lot. You will take the jeep for about 45 minutes to the Penanjakan sunrise viewpoint. (1. When you get out, note where the jeep is parked and take a photo so you can find it when you return, as there may be too many vehicles to locate yours. 2. There may be severe jeep traffic, and the driver may have to stop some distance away. You will then need to hike to the sunrise viewpoint; just follow the single path to the top. You can also ask the jeep driver to arrange a motorcycle ride to the viewpoint, at your own expense; this usually costs IDR 50,000 per trip.)
06:30 Take a jeep for approximately 15–30 minutes to the destination. Note where the jeep is parked and take a photo for reference) Pasir Berbisik Sea of Sand-
Hike to the crater of Mount Bromo (there is a lot of dust, so you may want to bring a mask in advance. You can also ride a horse for IDR 150,000 per trip; at your own expense);
08:15 Take a jeep back;
10:00 Arrive at the parking lot and conclude the Mount Bromo excursion. Depart or return to the hotel to rest before heading to the next stop.
(P.S. In rare cases, weather conditions may cause mist to obscure the view of Mount Bromo, affecting the sightseeing experience. No refunds are available in such cases.)
Important information for Bali
Luggage: Your flight includes 20 kg of checked baggage and 7 kg of carry-on baggage. All liquids over 100 ml must be checked. Be sure to carry power banks, lithium batteries, and valuables with you.

Other information:

2. ⚠ The local currency in Bali is the Indonesian rupiah. You can prepare cash in RMB or US dollars. Most banks in China cannot exchange small Indonesian denominations, so you can exchange money with the local tour guide after arrival; any unused amount can be exchanged back on the day you depart. Each person may bring no more than the equivalent of RMB 20,000 in cash when entering the country. Please prepare the cash and bank or credit cards you need for your trip.

5. Communications: We recommend that you activate international roaming or overseas data services, or get a SIM card, so you can stay in touch whenever needed. (A guide to activating overseas data through the Worry-Free Travel app is also provided for reference only; please choose a suitable platform or plan based on your needs.) Plug: The sockets use European-style round pins. We have asked the tour leader to prepare adapters for everyone, which will be handed out on the day of departure.
6. Southeast Asians are accustomed to drinking cold or iced water. If you are used to drinking boiled water or tea, we recommend bringing your own cup. Do not boil tap water in the hotel and drink it directly; always use bottled water, boiled before drinking.
