OVERVIEW

Day 1 — Pick-Up from Bali & Transfer to East Java. Your adventure begins when our team picks you up from your Bali hotel around 10:00–10:30 AM. Enjoy a comfortable 4-hour private drive to the Gilimanuk Ferry Port, located at the western tip of Bali. Afterward, cross the Bali Strait by ferry (approximately 1.5 hours) and arrive at Ketapang Port, Banyuwangi, the gateway to East Java. You will then be transferred to your hotel for check-in and have the rest of the evening to relax.

Day 2 — Ijen Crater & Transfer to Tumpak Sewu. At 00:30 AM, meet your guide at the hotel lobby and head to Ijen Basecamp (1.5-hour drive). After a short break and preparation, begin your hike to the crater rim—approximately 3.5 km or 2 hours of trekking. At the summit, witness one of the world’s rarest natural phenomena: the Ijen Blue Fire, glowing beautifully in the darkness as burning sulfur emits bright blue flames. As dawn arrives, enjoy a spectacular sunrise over the massive turquoise acidic crater lake at 2,386 meters above sea level—one of the world’s most iconic volcanic vistas. After descending back to basecamp, enjoy breakfast and continue the journey toward your homestay near Tumpak Sewu Waterfall (5–6 hours), with a stop for lunch at a local restaurant.

Your second day continues with a thrilling 3-hour adventure through one of Java’s most impressive landscapes. Explore the lush jungle at the foot of Mount Semeru, the highest volcano in Java.

Visit:

• Tumpak Sewu Viewpoint – the legendary curtain-style waterfall, often called the Niagara of Java

• Tumpak Sewu Lower Ground – trek down to stand at the base of the falls, surrounded by towering cliffs

• Goa Tetes and Nirvana Waterfall – hidden gems featuring natural springs and limestone formations

After exploring this breathtaking area, drive approximately 4 hours to your hotel near Mount Bromo. Check in and rest for the next day’s sunrise adventure.

Day 3 — Mount Bromo Sunrise & Crater Exploration. Prepare for an extraordinary experience as your 4WD Jeep takes you to one of Bromo’s iconic viewpoints—Penanjakan, King Kong Hill, or Sruni Point—to witness one of the most beautiful sunrises on Earth. Watch the sky light up behind the volcanic silhouettes of Mount Bromo, Mount Batok, and Mount Semeru. Continue your journey across the Sea of Sand and hike up the staircase to the Bromo Crater Rim. Listen to the powerful roar of the volcano as smoke rises from deep within the caldera—an experience both thrilling and unforgettable.

After enjoying these iconic moments, return to your hotel for breakfast. At around 10:00 AM, check out and prepare for your transfer:
