The horse here is so calm, so don’t be afraid of them.
When you reach the peak of Mount Bromo, you will hear the sound from the earth, which means Mount Bromo is a super active volcano. Sometimes, it spews the ash and smoke with bad smells like rotten eggs. This is a reason why you can’t stay too long on the top of this volcano because might the dangerous gas come up and kill anyone who is on the top of Mount Bromo. Back to our jeep, we will be continuing to our last stop for today before back to our hotel, we will go to Teletubbies hill, where you can see a beautiful green valley.
