The best Bromo sunrise experience! Ready to see one of the most impressive sunrises you have ever thought of? On this one-night trip on the slopes of the majestic Bromo volcano where the temperature will be colder than on the rest of the island of Java, you will have the opportunity to see the volcanic activity of one of the most accessible volcanoes in Indonesia.

Although reference is always made to the Bromo volcano, in reality this volcano is located in a caldera that houses 5 volcanoes that belong to the Semeru National Park. Before going down to the vast area of sand that surrounds them, we will enjoy the view of the caldera while the first rays of sun rise. Watch for the explosions of the Semeru volcano in the background every exact 20 minutes!
