Discover one of Mount Merapi's closest public lava viewpoints on a small-group tour from Yogyakarta. Unlike a Merapi Jeep Tour, this experience lets you enjoy spectacular volcano views from carefully selected viewpoints. Choose to hike 1,743 steps to Turgo Hill for a rewarding panoramic view, or relax at Gubug Arum Sari with complimentary coffee, tea, and freshly fried bananas while overlooking Mount Merapi. After sunset and when volcanic conditions allow, you may witness glowing lava from a safe distance.

- Visit one of Mount Merapi's closest public lava viewpoints
- Choose between the Turgo Hill hike or a scenic viewpoint experience
