Probolinggo Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Jun)
Mt Bromo Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Jun)
🌋East Java is amazingly beautiful! 🇮🇩
I enjoyed every bit of this adventure - it was affordable, and the views were absolutely worth the hikes and early starts.
Day 1:
• Madakaripura Waterfall
Stay: Bromo Terrace Hotel & Resto
Eat: Bawangan Bromo Hotel & Resto
Day 2: (started our day at 2.30am)
• Sunrise point at King Kong Hill (only jeeps can access the roads there, and you get some cool pics as well)
• Hike Mt. Bromo
Stay: Urbanview B Syariah Lumajang
Day 3:
• Tumpaksewu Waterfall
• Goa Tetes Cave
Stay: ljen View Hotel & Resort
Day 4: (started our day at 11.30pm the PREVIOUS day, slept at 6pm to make it to ljen before sunrise)
• Hike Mt. Ijen - there's the option to hike down to see a naturally occuring blue fire, but there were too many people on that day, making the narrow path down quite dangerous. We opted to climb a little higher to catch the sunrise instead - it was so beautiful and serene with most of the crowd trying to catch the blue fire.

How to Play in Surabaya, Indonesia for 4 Days and 3 Nights (With Bromo Itinerary)
A one-sentence summary: You will never be disappointed by the Bromo Volcano🌋
The volcano and waterfall tour in Surabaya, Indonesia is getting more and more popular.
I took some time off for a vacation and also did a round of special forces training (Fresh itinerary from early August)
⭐See the detailed 4-day and 3-night itinerary and accommodation arrangements in the picture⭐
👌🏻If you have any questions about the itinerary and attractions, see you in the comments section👌🏻
✨Key Points✨
1. The journey is long, mostly starting at dawn, if you can, please be sure to hire a car and a leader, as it's very tiring and you might not come a second time.
2. Climbing the mountain is the easiest part of the trip, but there is a lot of dust on the way, and without a mask, your nose will definitely be full of dust, as will your shoes.
3. The guide and leader are very important, directly determining the quality of the trip (more on this later).
4. If it's your first time, don't worry too much about the camera position, the guide will take you to places where you can take beautiful photos.
5. The cost for a 4-day and 3-night trip for two people is only about 1700 per person, and it's even cheaper with more people (we also asked to add a few less popular attractions, a good driver will help you consider the time to make sure you can visit them).
6. You'll need to go out to eat, buy fruit, rent clothes if it's cold, a trusted guide and driver can help you with all of this
In 2023, my most fantastical travel destination, the place least like Earth
In 2023, my most fantastical travel destination, the place least like Earth|||The first time I saw a live volcano erupting in front of me
Thick black smoke, red plasma flowing in front of my eyes
The first time I saw trees growing in the sea
They are at peace with the world, dancing alone, without sadness, they become a scenic line
The first time I saw a forest like a 'nine-tailed fox'
The leaves are like fur, lush and mysterious, growing wildly
When I shared it for the first time
It was collected and liked by countless friends, and successfully attracted more friends to check in
There are more different sceneries waiting for us in the distance
Sharing beautiful sceneries and photos has become an indispensable part of my travel
'Sharing desire is the highest romance'
·
🌲Dancing trees
On a tourist-free island in Indonesia: Sumba Island
These unique trees grow in the sea
Living a life that even Sanmao dreams of
No posture of joy and sorrow
Never rely on, never seek
·
🌋Bromo Volcano
Spent 3 days exploring the secrets of the volcano
This volcano, which looks like the surface of the moon, is located in the eastern part of Java Island, Indonesia, and is an active volcano that can be approached at close range
I don't have enough ability to see everything
And it is for this reason that this experience is so special
The peak of the eruption is almost every half an hour
·
🌴De Djawatan Forest
This forest is famous for its area with huge Barringtonia trees, and it has also been nicknamed the 'Lord of the Rings Forest'. Whether it's a nature lover or someone who just wants to escape the hustle and bustle of the city, this forest is a must-visit place in the southern dream
·
📸'The brave ones enjoy the world first'
It also started to become popular in 2023, it does take more courage to go out
Even have to pay a lot of price
But only by going out can we gain more
Many potential opportunities require us to take the first step
Finally, I see you, Java Volcano
This is my fourth time in Indonesia, but my first time visiting this famous Java attraction, Bromo Volcano. I joined a group from Malang, waiting for the sunrise in the dark, the temperature was only 9 degrees, luckily I managed without adding a coat. Then we went on a somewhat experienced trek to the volcano crater, followed by the grasslands and the sand sea, which everyone ignored because they were too tired. Since we set off from Malang, we left the hotel in Malang city at 0:40. On the way back, we visited a place that some people call the 'small waterfall', the Rainbow Waterfall. The ticket price is very low, it's a bit like the main waterfall in the Tongling Grand Canyon in Guangxi that I visited in 2021, but the ticket prices of the two can't be compared.

MADAKARIPURA WATERFALL : PROBOLINGGO
For nature lovers, Indonesia is a country that never ends with all its natural beauty. Because when visiting an area, visitors have to spend a lot of time visiting hundreds of tourist attractions. Similarly, when visiting Probolinggo, various tourist attractions must be visited. But of all that, visitors must visit Madakipura Lumbang Probolinggo Waterfall. Why?

Bromo Tengger Semeru National Park Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Jun)
Indonesia, Java
This is one of the most active volcano in East Java 🌋♥️ you must try to visit here specially if you decide to do camping on the top of the mountain. Sunrise was really awesome and the weather was so cold 🌅🏕️ You must try the horse riding and 4x4.
Majectic Bromo
Getting There - To travel to bromo independently you first need to go to probolinggo, this is the closest city to bromo. otherwise, there are tour companies in Bali that can take you overland. You can also go with tour company catching flight from bali to malang or surabaya then.
Attractions - sunrise
Hotels - plataran bromo or bawangan bromo
Food & Restaurants - available at hotel
Shopping -

when you have plan to traveling around probolinggo, you must visit aworjiwa cafe. its located in sukapura. 3 KM before top of the bromo mountain. many menu of food and drink are ready to serve in here. it have clean and fresh air.
Ijen Crater
The hike down and up the crater will take somewhere around 45-60 minutes but that will also depend on how crowded the path is. Since it will be in the dark and the path is rocky/uneven, you will also want to take it slower than usual.
As you are making your way down to the bottom you may pass by some sulfur miners until you reach a viewpoint where you can better see the blue flames. Unfortunately, the blue flames will not always be nice and bright to see (and sometimes you won’t be able to see them at all).
When I visited, they were not strong at all and I couldn’t even get a picture in the dark.
After enjoying sunrise for a bit, feel free to walk a bit more around the crater rim of Ijen. You can continue counter clockwise as you take in additional views of the lake and crater rim.

Gunung Ijen Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Jun)
A must-see blue flame in this lifetime
Here is a nanny-level guide to the itinerary of the Indonesian Ijen Volcano:
🌋Itinerary
1️⃣0:00 Depart from the hotel🏨, the journey is far, please go to bed early the night before💤.
2️⃣2:00 Arrive at the foot of the mountain🌋, receive the gas mask😷 and goggles🥽 distributed by the guide, organize your backpack🎒, and go lightly.
(On the way up the mountain, you can choose to ride the local human-powered cart "Lamborghini" at any time, the one-way price is about 500💰, of course, the closer to the end, the cheaper.)
3️⃣Around 4:30 to reach the top, the time varies from person to person.
🌋Check-in points
1️⃣Tree rights: Walk inside the mountain top⛰️ to see tree branches of different sizes, those who are queuing are basically excellent 📷positions
2️⃣Small platform: The small platform under the tree rights, this place is very photogenic, you can take pictures of the volcano🌋 and sulfuric acid lake
3️⃣Right side of the summit: Here you can see the sea of clouds☁️ and the mountain top⛰️
💼Recommended items to bring: Gas mask😷, goggles👓, wet wipes🧻, tissues, Snickers, drinking water
❗️ If you want to go down to the volcanic lake to see the blue fire, it is best to choose a protective mask with eye mask, because sulfur is very irritating to the eyes.
wonderful banyuwangi
Ijen Resort and Villas is a materialization of a dream. A long time dream which stayed in mind during some decades.
The First Inspiration
The story of Ijen Crater was heard for the first time from an old uncle who happened to be sent there joining forced workersīó by the japanese army in the second world war period. It was in his childhood time.
The Solitary Crater, it is so called because of its position, alone out of reach and out of nowhere. It sounded rather intriguing. The old uncle said that it took the whole day walk to cross through the dark jungle, to arrive in a vast open plain area where they had to spend the night before hiking up the mountain on the next day. And the crater was the only interest because it spit out large quantity of sulfur.

Indonesia - mount Ijen
I finally got the chance to visit this active volcano and believe it or not it’s one of the WORLD’s MUST-SEE VOLCANOES because apparently this Ijen Volcano Crater has the world’s largest acidic volcanic crater lake which, the water is actually in UNIQUE turquoise color! Imagine how cool is that! THIS TIME, We are here for the sole purpose of visiting this crater because this turquoise colored-lake within the crater is quite famous for it’s color and the local miners normally call it the Kawah Ijen. This crater is located right on top of the Mount Ijen where you have to hike 3km from the bottom starting all the way up taking the one way narrow and steep trail to reach the top. For a novice like me i would say this is quite challenging to walk and climb in the dark with a torchlight that provides barely enough visibility to see what’s coming your way in a few meters.
While hiking and climbing up you can see a lot of old sulfur miners ( some barefooted ) marathon-ing using the same trail carrying a basket each as if racing with each other to reach the top to dig minerals, sulfurs or whatsoever they have to dig to sell it for money, leaving us behind staggering and struggling to make each step forward in reaching the same point of mountain. This is too exhausting but worth the effort when you can start smelling something like the rotting eggs and food as you climb higher because it means that you’re about to reach your destination, the GREEN LAKE!
