We had a wonderful trip planned for us, and everything went smoothly.
In the town, Jetz and team were very hospitable. All our needs were met, questions answered and they also brought us around the town to indulge in local delicacies.
On the volcano, Izal and Juhardi masterfully guided us through the jungle terrain, keeping us well fed and well sheltered.
Absolutely zero complaints, the team had such a good vibe and great energy. I’m missing my time in Kerinci already.

We wanted to climb Gunung Kerinci and arrived in Padang having nothing planned.
I found Kerinci Paradise featured on YouTube and made contact with Jet on the night of 24 June 2023. We were difficult customers wanting a customised itinerary. Jet was professional informative and able to cater to our needs. His communication and response to our endless questions was fantastic. The necessary forms were completed and the 2days 1 night adventure was booked for the 28 and 29 June.
It was a wonderful experience thanks to the professional leadership of Jet at Kerinci Paradise. Highly recommended.
