Uncover East Java's treasure mount Bromo on a 1-day private adventure tour.

Mount Bromo is a top attraction with its local horse men, the Luhur Poten temple in the Sea of Sand, and the astonishing views while being in the ancient caldera.

    You will be picked up at 00:00 - midnight - in Surabaya. Either at your hotel, the train station or at the airport. In about 2 to 3 hours you will drive by private car to Cemara Lawang village. There you will change cars.  By private 4WD Jeep you continue to the viewpoint at mount Penanjakan. Enjoy a coffee break with a hot cup of coffee or tea and a local snack before the sun rises. The weather conditions determine the colours in the sky. Bring some warm clothes as it is cold early morning, between 0 and 10 degrees Celsius.

    At around 06:00 you continue to mount Bromo. You will cross the unearthly moonlike caldera in which mount Bromo resides. The northern part of this caldera consists in a volcanic ashen greyish-grey Sea of Sand. Feel free to ask the driver to stop if you like to take a walk in this landscape.

    30 minutes Admission ticket included

    The Jeep parks near Luhur Poten temple. This temple is still actively used during ceremonies. Most often it is closed, but you can peek in. If it is open, ask for permission to enter.

    Then it will be a 45 minutes walk to the top of mount Bromo - one way. Look back every now and then. Not only to grab your breath, but also to consume the ever changing landscape. One can always rent a horse, if you don't like walking (not included - about IDR 100,000). Standing at the top of this active volcano is an awe-inspiring experience. When you return to your Jeep, your driver is waiting for you. You will head back to Cemara Lawang village where you will have breakfast. After breakfast you change back to your comfortable car to start your return journey to Surabaya.

    3 hours Admission ticket included

    These enchanting waterfalls are located on route to Surabaya. The walk is fairly easy and takes only about 30 min one way. But... be ready to get wet. If you have time, you can visit these sacred waterfalls. If time isn't sufficient, e.g. you have to catch a flight, you will directly return to Surabaya.

    2 hours Admission ticket included
