After a 30-minute easy trek, you'll reach the peak and witness the active Bromo crater, caldera, and majestic mountainous views of Mt. Batok and Mt. Semeru. Don't forget to check out the Hindu temple reflecting the history of the Majapahit Kingdom. Enjoy breakfast at Lava View restaurant before heading to the Ijen Crater in Banyuwangi pr Bondowoso.

After a one-hour trek, you'll reach the Ijen Crater, where you can witness the mesmerizing Blue Fire phenomenon - dazzling blue lava-like rivers of light. At 6:00 AM, you'll return to Surabaya/Malang or Ketapang port.
The 2D1N Mount Ijen Blue Fire and Mount Bromo Sunrise was an awesome experience. As it's a private tour for 3 of us, we could resequence the itinerary to do Mount Ijen first when we were informed that Ijen will be closed on our planned travel. Our guide for this 2D1N is Pramesti Ayu, together with a driver. They were both very good. Pram took care of us and driver was very experience. At Mt Ijen, we have a local guide (Mr Dora) who trekked 5.5hrs with us. He is very experienced and guided us along the way. For the more senior folks who are not used to trekking, the terrain could be rough - some steep up slope. Highly recommend to have local guide. I'm guide we went for this. An amazing once in a lifetime experience.
Our tour guide took good care of us and brought us to many amazing photo spots and helped us took many beautiful photos! :) The tour itinerary was well planned out too :)
It was a great trip! The guide and the driver were helpful, friendly and fun to have around. And they beat every time projection without being reckless. I recommend!
We recently had the pleasure of going on a 2D1N tour to Mount Bromo and Ijen led by our friendly tour guide Arya, and it was an unforgettable experience. Arya's friendly demeanor and extensive knowledge made the trip truly special. His expertise in the area and ability to share insights about the locations we visited added so much value to the journey. Arya also helped us captured lots of beautiful photos and always there to make sure we had the best experience. The tour operator's seamless and Arya's professional guidance made the trip smooth and enjoyable. I highly recommend Arya and the tour operator for anyone looking to explore Mount Bromo and Ijen. 5 stars all the way!
