Mount Bromo and Mount Ijen Climbing Tour to Java from Bali
A three-day private expedition from Bali to the neighboring island of Java to explore two of the planet's most active, famous, and spectacular volcanic systems: Mount Bromo and Mount Ijen. Prepare for a deep immersion into raw wilde ess, lunar sunrise landscapes, ascending the edge of an active crater, and hiking down into the world's most dramatic sulfur caldera.
This expedition is perfectly suited for adventurers, photographers, and anyone wishing to witness the primeval power of the Earth in comfortable private vehicle transfers and organized accommodation.
Highlight Attractions of the Tour:
- Active Mount Bromo — one of Indonesia's most iconic active volcanoes. It rises in the middle of a massive ancient caldera filled with grey volcanic dust («sea of sand»). You will watch a stu
ing sunrise from a cliffside viewpoint overlooking the mystical range of Bromo, Batok, and the towering Mount Semeru, followed by an outrigger jeep crossing and climbing the stairs directly to Bromo's steaming active crater rim.
- Mount Ijen — a unique volcanic complex famous for housing the world's largest highly acidic turquoise crater lake. At night, you can witness the rare natural phenomenon of «blue flame» produced by combusting sulfur vapors, and at sunrise — breathtaking panoramic views of the sulfur lake and the monumental manual labor of local sulfur miners.
- East Java Culture — cross the Bali Strait by car ferry, drive through traditional Javanese villages, explore vast emerald rice fields, climb mountain roads, and enjoy traditional Javanese meals.
