DAY 2: IJEN BLUEFIRE TOUR – HOMESTAY IN TUMPAK SEWU WATERFALL/HOTEL IN LUMAJANG TOWN
On day 2 of the tour, we will be ready for the midnight trip to Mount Ijen. We will start at about 00:30 am from your hotel/homestay then drive about an hour (less) until we reach Paltuding (it’s the start point of the trekking, and also there is some shop to buy some food, rent a jacket, rent flashlight or toilet too). The reason why we will trek to Mount Ijen at midnight is that we would like to show you the natural phenomenon of Blue Fire/Blue Lava that is only able to be seen in the darkness. And it’s also the only 2 in the world, Mount Ijen and Dallol Volcano in Ethiopia but Mount Ijen is the easiest way and always comes out every night.

To reach the Blue Fire point, we have to walk about 2 hours from the start point. The trekking path is moderate, but in some parts is quite sandy and rocky. Upon your arrival at Blue Fire, you will see how amazing the blue color comes out from the center of the volcano but we are not allowed to stay too long here, because there is also the dangerous gas that comes with the Blue Fire too.

After enjoying the view of Blue Fire, we will climb back to the peak of Mount Ijen and be ready to wait for the light of the sunrise and capture the best view of Mount Ijen from the top.

At about 5:30 am, the sun rises from the east which will give light to the crater rim of Mount Ijen. It’s a very picturesque landscape here. At 7 am, we will go back to our car and ready back to Banyuwangi Town to have breakfast or take a shower before continuing our journey to Tumpak Sewu Waterfall or Lumajang.

At about 10:30, we will be ready to drive to reach the Tumpak Sewu Waterfall area to stay overnight. It takes about 6-7 hours.

NOTE: if you want to drive less than 6 hours, we can stay in Lumajang town.

DAY 3: TUMPAK SEWU WATERFALL – HOMESTAY/HOTEL IN MOUNT BROMO AREA
On the third day of the trip, we will explore the best waterfall on Java Island. If you stay in the Tumpak Sewu Waterfall area, we can start at 7 am, because it’s just 10 minutes away till we reach the panorama point of the waterfall, but if you stay in Lumajang Town, we must start at 5 am because we must drive about 1H30M.

Upon your arrival at Tumpak Sewu Waterfall, you will be amazed by the view of this waterfall from Panorama’s point. You can see 180 degrees, sometimes there is a fog/mist around the waterfall. It makes the view more magical and mystical.

After enjoying the view from the top of the viewpoint, we will go down to the bottom of the waterfall, but it takes more than 3 hours up and down.

We must be careful because the way to go down is quite slippery and rocky, we must pass the rocky path where the water also drips down. And just a rope and bamboo fence. So we recommend wearing special shoes or slippers and water-resistant bags for your belongings.

Upon your arrival at the bottom of the waterfall, you will notice that the waterfall is even bigger from a closer view. For taking a photo, you need to be careful because some rocks are mossy and slippery.

After enjoying the waterfalls, we have to drive for about 4-5 hours until we reach our hotel in the Mount Bromo area.

NOTE:
THERE ARE OTHER DESTINATIONS NEARBY SUCH AS GOA TETES (DRIPPING CAVE), AND KAPAS BIRU WATERFALL. BUT THE COST IS APPLIED ON THE SPOT, YOU CAN PAY OUR GUIDE.

DAY 4: MOUNT BROMO SUNRISE TOUR – TRANSFER TO SURABAYA
On the last day of the trip, we will start at 3 am from our hotel here, and we will take a jeep to reach King Kong Hill where we will be waiting for the sunrise. Kingkong Hill is one of the best sunrise viewpoints which has fewer people than other viewpoints.

The jeep will take about 45 minutes, and walk less than 7 minutes. The sun will rise at about 5:30 am, so we have time to wait a bit in the shops near the hill. You can buy some snacks, coffee, teas or some souvenirs too.

At 5:30, the sun will rise from the east and give light to Mount Bromo and the surrounding makes the landscape more special.

After enjoying the sunrise here, we will go back to our jeep and drive to the sea of sand where we can take a photo with our jeep and see the view around. Then we will drive a bit to the parking place where we will be trekking to the top of Mount Bromo.

The trekking to the crater rim takes about 45 minutes away by foot, if you want to ride a horse, you can pay 10 USD in return. Upon your arrival at the Crater rim, you will be amazed at the hole of fire that spews smoke every time and sometimes comes with a loud sound.

After enjoying the volcanic activity on the top of Mount Bromo, we have to go back to the jeep then back to the hotel for breakfast, take a shower, and pack and load our bags into our car afterward we will continue our trip to the Surabaya area (Hotel, Airport or Train Station). The trip will take about 3-4 hours. We are also able to drop you in Malang Town if you want.

OPTIONAL PROGRAM:
If your condition is still good after the Bromo sunrise tour & the weather is good enough, you will have a chance to visit Madakaripura Waterfall on the way from your hotel in the Mt. Bromo area to Surabaya.
