Passeio Privado de 3 Dias: Nascer do Sol no Monte Bromo e Vulcão Ijen

Sehr netter und süßer Reiseleiter als Fotomeister und professioneller Fahrer. Wundervoller und erstaunlicher Sonnenaufgang am Vulkan Bromo und sternenklare Nacht, unvergessliche blaue Flamme und der türkisfarbene Ijen-See. Ich empfehle diese Reise sehr gerne.

The scenery is incredibly beautiful, though the itinerary was a bit strenuous. After our guide picked us up at the airport, he took us to a village near Bromo. We had to set off at 2 AM, and it didn't take long to get there. Our handsome guide accompanied us for coffee, and we quickly found a great spot to view Mount Bromo with hardly any walking. Afterwards, we went to the desert where we could take many beautiful photos. For the crater, you can choose to ride a horse, which is a good experience. Although you have to pay a little extra, it makes the journey much easier. There are also over two hundred steps to get up close to the volcano. The more challenging part was Ijen. Not only was the journey long, but we also had to climb the mountain with almost no sleep at night. We departed at 11:30 PM and had a two-hour drive, followed by a rapid ascent up a very steep mountain. After reaching the summit, we had to quickly descend to the crater, and the path was very difficult. I highly recommend bringing trekking poles and very non-slip shoes. Seeing the blue flames requires a lot of luck. After taking photos, be sure to check them carefully. Then, we waited at the summit for dawn to see the blue lake. The most arduous part was the seven-hour drive back to Surabaya. Our guide, Met, was excellent. He arranged a delicious breakfast for us at Bromo. On the return trip from Ijen, he arranged a local specialty meal, which we weren't quite used to. He tried his best to fulfill all our requests, helped us verify our train tickets, and handled other detailed follow-up tasks. He deserves a five-star rating. If anyone comes here in the future, I suggest adding a waterfall or other attractions to make the itinerary even richer.

Our tour guide Sham gave a great service from the moment we arrived till we departed. Although our itinerary had to change due to Ijen had a recent earthquake, they gave us a great alternative location which is Tumpak Sewu Waterfall on the 3rd day. Our 1st day is quite chill, mainly sightseeing and discover local food. 2nd day started early at 1.30am towards Mt Bromo. The jeep ride was about an hour till we reached the breakfast spot to wait for sunrise. Then, Sham showed us the best viewing spot for us to put up our camera gear & capture the timelapse before the crowd came. It was absolutely stunning, windy & cold (6-8 degrees) so make sure you are dressed up warmed. After that, we went back to our hotel, ate lunch & prepare to leave to next hotel near Tumpak Sewu. We were slightly disappointed with the room they got us as it was quite small, dark and the bed was sinking in the middle. But since it was just for 1 night, we quickly got over it and didnt bother much. It wasn't really the guide's fault but he was super nice about it & treat us to good ol Indomie. 3rd day we walked just across the street towards Tumpak Sewu Waterfall and began our trekking at 6am after breakfast. The route were mostly stairs so it wasn't difficult at all on the route down. There was another local guide who guided us as well. He took our pictures at few spots and it actually turned out super great!! We came there earlier before the rush of crowd, so it was just perfect timing. After all activities were finished, Sham & our driver even dropped us off to our next hotel in the city, as we decided to stay for another night to discover the city center. Overall, everything is well organized, informative and I appreciate how Sham & our driver Pak Takim always arrive on time. Both of them are also easy to talk to and very friendly! I couldn't recommend them enough.

We recently had an unforgettable trekking experience to Tampek Sewu Waterfall and Mount Bromo, guided by the amazing Oni. He made the entire trip incredibly enjoyable with his funny, cheerful, and helpful nature. Although we were initially disappointed by the closure of Ijen, the rerouted tour to Tampek Sewu turned out to be a wonderful surprise. The trek to Tampek Sewu Waterfall was far beyond our expectations. The view was absolutely breathtaking, and the journey to the main waterfall was an adventure in itself. We had to go through two small waterfalls and trek through mountain paths, which was challenging but so rewarding. Oni was there every step of the way, not only ensuring our safety but also capturing the best moments by taking photos at every beautiful spot. Although it was tiring, the experience was one I will never forget. After the waterfall trek, we continued our adventure with a Mount Bromo trek. We started our journey early, waking up at 1 AM to head to the Bromo basecamp. From there, we took a jeep to the base of the mountain to witness the stunning sunrise over Mount Bromo. The 30-minute climb to the sunrise viewing spot was challenging, but Oni took great care of each of us, ensuring we safely arrived at the perfect spot. After enjoying the sunrise, we returned to the jeep and headed to Bromo Crater. The jeep ride through the black sand desert was an experience in itself, followed by a trek across the black sand and a climb up several hundred stairs to the crater. Witnessing the volcano up close was a truly awe-inspiring experience. Even though we were a bit sad to miss the Ijen hike, the trip was still one of the most unforgettable adventures I’ve ever had. Thanks to our guide Oni, we had a pleasant and memorable trip that we will cherish forever.

The itinerary for this trip was excellent and well-organized. Our guide (Rizky) was very kind and provided great service. We received a lot of help from Rizky, and thanks to him, the trip ended wonderfully. Even though there were language communication difficulties, he kindly used translation to help us communicate effectively. I'll continue to support him in the future. The guides also took great photos for us, haha!

The views were amazing. Most importantly our tour guides were so friendly. We had fun with the guides (Omet & Pak Pay) & also driver. Transport was comfortable.

Semuanya berjalan lancar. Dari penjemputan hingga akhir perjalanan. Rizky adalah pemandu kami, dia sabar dan ramah. Hotel-hotel sesuai harapan. Terutama di Grand Padis, makanannya enak di sana. Bromo bagus. Ijen tidak menyangka perjalanan turun ke kawah akan cukup sulit. Dan kami kehujanan sepanjang waktu tetapi semuanya masih bisa diatasi. Pengalaman yang bagus.

This trip is full of amazing views and experiences! The views of Bromo and Ijen are fantastic and unlike anything I've seen elsewhere. Our tour guide, Arya, is a funny and helpful person; he took great care of us throughout the trip. He also provided valuable information about the journey and Indonesian culture. This trip will definitely be one of the most unforgettable experiences of my life!

Elshar and Hassan were fantastic guides and made the whole trip seamless and worry-free! Definitely recommend if you're going for a solo trip.

Our tour guide, Li Yuwen, was enthusiastic and thoughtful. The itinerary was well-planned, and his excellent Chinese helped us a lot.
