A very ambiguous impression from visiting the village of Trunyan. We discussed it for 4 hours after the trip, but could not come to a consensus. Perhaps due to cultural differences, our attitude towards others' remains seemed more reverent than that of the local residents.

Excellent trip, highly recommend it to everyone! Everything was very well-organized, picked up at 1:30, the guide was waiting for us on the mountain, who treated us to coffee and fried bananas before the climb, the climb was not tiring, he chose an easy route, we were at the mountain by sunrise, unforgettable impressions, everything was great!!! The return transfer was also well-organized, a pleasant boat ride on Lake Batur, with a stop at the village of the dead, it was all impressive, thank you so much for the organization ???

Everything went great. It so happened that we were alone with the guide, who turned out to be a very cool guy. The views and experiences were magnificent. The only downside is that there is no toilet at the top. But this can be attributed to the peculiarities of the area😉. This is about Batur. Then there was a nice walk on the lake. There was also a great local guide who explained everything and took photos. The village of the dead left a peculiar impression. For informational purposes, it's okay. In essence, it's a place where dead people lie and there are lots of flies. And the locals ask for money😂
