Itinerary
DAY 1: (PICK UP IN BALI - ACOMMODATION IN IJEN CRATER AREA)
The Tumpaksewu Bromo Ijen tour from Bali will begin around 8:00 AM (Bali time zone). Our staff will pick you up from your hotel in the Bali area (Ubud, Canggu, Kuta, Denpasar, Jimbaran, and Lovina). We will then drive you to the Gilimanuk ferry port. We will then take a ferry for about an hour to reach the Ketapang ferry port. We will then take you to a local restaurant for lunch and then continue the journey to your hotel in the Ijen Crater area (Banyuwangi City).
Upon arrival, check in and have free time.
(You can explore the area around your hotel or just relax and enjoy your stay before your Ijen Crater tour.)
DAY 2:(IJEN CRATER BLUE FIRE TOUR - ACOMMODATION IN TUMPAKSEWU WATERFALL AREA)
The Ijen Crater tour will begin at 12:30 AM. Our staff will pick you up from your hotel or villa in the Banyuwangi area. The journey will continue to Paltuding (the starting point), approximately one hour from downtown Banyuwangi.
The hike will begin at 2:00 AM. From here, it will take you 1.5 hours to climb the slopes of the Ijen Crater (a trail approximately 3.5 km long). Along the walking trail, you'll enjoy stunning natural scenery, fresh air, and the chirping of birds.
Upon reaching the summit of the Ijen Crater, at an altitude of approximately 2,385 meters above sea level, you will be able to see the blue fire.
If you wish to see the blue fire phenomenon, continue your journey to the crater floor. This journey takes approximately 30 minutes, with slightly dangerous terrain, as the trail is filled with rocks and sand, making it a bit slippery. Once you reach the sulfur area, you will be able to enjoy the beauty of the blue fire. (Blue fire is a unique natural phenomenon caused by the combustion of sulfur gas emitted from the crater of Mount Ijen, and is naturally occurring.)
Please note that the path down to the crater floor, including the path leading down to the lake, is not equipped with safety equipment for descending or ascending. We strongly advise against attempting to descend into the crater. Otherwise, the tour organizers are not responsible for any potential consequences.
After enjoying the beauty of the blue fire, continue climbing back to the summit.
In the morning, around 5:00 AM, you'll be captivated by the stunning panorama of the Ijen Crater, featuring an acidic lake with turquoise water. The view is especially beautiful if you take photos above the crater. Beyond the scenery, you'll also see sulfur miners descending into the crater to extract yellow sulfur rocks and ascending back up along a treacherous path along the edge of the crater, carrying 40-70 kilograms of weight on their shoulders. This is dangerous and difficult work.
After enjoying the breathtaking views of the Ijen Crater, we'll descend to the parking area where our car will be waiting to take you back to your hotel for breakfast and to collect your bags. Before departing for the Tumpaksewu waterfall area, the journey will take approximately 6-7 hours with several stops.
Upon arrival at your accommodation, check in and have free time.
(You can explore the area around your hotel or just relax and enjoy your stay before your Tumpaksewu waterfall tour.)
DAY 3:(EXPLORE TUMPAKSEWU WATERFALL - ACOMMODATION IN BROMO AREA)
The Tumpak Sewu Waterfall tour will begin at 6 a.m.
Upon arrival at Tumpak Sewu Waterfall, our guide will accompany you to the Panorama viewpoint, offering a 180-degree panoramic view of the waterfall.
After enjoying the view, we'll descend to the base of the waterfall, taking photos from various angles. The descent can be slippery due to the wet conditions, but newly constructed iron ladders and cement steps are available.
(Suitable footwear and a waterproof bag are recommended.)
This activity will last approximately 3 hours, depending on your level of involvement with the waterfall.
After exploring the waterfall, we'll return to the hotel for breakfast before continuing to our next destination, Mount Bromo, which is a 3-hour drive from Tumpak Sewu Waterfall.
Upon arrival, check in and have free time.
(You can explore the area around your hotel or just relax and enjoy your stay before your Mount Bromo tour.)
DAY 4:(SUNRISE BROMO TOUR - DROP OFF AT SURABAYA)
The Mount Bromo Sunrise Tour will begin around 3:00 AM from your hotel. Your jeep will take you to the most famous viewpoint in the Mount Bromo area, Penanjakan/King Kong Hill/Seruni Point. From this hill, you can see the best sunrise in East Java with a backdrop of mountains and volcanoes.
(Optional: If you're visiting Mount Bromo on a weekend, the tour can start earlier or you can enjoy the sunrise from the Bromo crater to avoid the crowds.)
After you've had your fill of the beautiful views of Mount Bromo, we'll return to the jeep and continue your adventure until you reach the sea of sand in the Mount Bromo area.
We'll stop at the parking area, then traverse the sea of sand on horseback or on foot until you reach the stairs on the slopes of Mount Bromo that will lead you to the summit.
After enjoying the volcanic activity at the summit of Mount Bromo, you'll return to your jeep, and it will take you back to your hotel for breakfast, showering, packing, and loading your bags.
After that, we'll continue our journey to the Surabaya area, which will take approximately 3 hours.
Upon arrival in Surabaya, we will take you to your hotel, airport, or train station (where the tour ends).
Then our trip ends.
