Ideal for nature lovers, photographers and active travelers seeking a short but full‑on escape into East Java’s wilderness.
Review – Package: Mount Bromo Camping Tour & Tumpak Sewu Waterfall (2D1N)
This camping package earns high marks for its efficient use of time and dramatic scenery. Reviewers highlight the early‑morning jeep ride to Bromo’s sunrise viewpoint, the surreal sea of sand and crater walk, followed by the jungle trek into Tumpak Sewu’s gorge and cave systems. The accommodation of a cosy mountain‑side camping gives both comfort and immersion. Guides are lauded for local knowledge and English proficiency. Some note the pacing is brisk—with limited downtime—but appreciate that the two major highlights are covered in just one overnight. A strong choice for short‑stay travellers wanting maximum impact.
Detailed Tour Itinerary – “Mount Bromo Camping & Tumpak Sewu Waterfall (2D1N)”
Here is your detailed day‑by‑day itinerary for the Package Camping Tour during 2 days 1 night
Day 1 – Arrival, Waterfall, Transfer to Volcano for Camping
Your trip begins early. Pick‑up will be from your hotel, train station or airport in either Malang or Surabaya. From there you travel in a private, air‑conditioned car with driver and guide. After roughly 3–4 hours you arrive at the access point for Tumpak Sewu Waterfall (also known as Coban Sewu) in Lumajang district.
From the parking area you embark on a moderate but rewarding descent into the canyon: the path includes rocky trail, river crossings and bamboo ladders, with the lush jungle walls and the massive curtain of water awaiting at the base. You’ll visit the viewpoint and if conditions permit you may hike down deeper into the ravine and even explore the cave “Goa Tetes”.
After spending time soaking in the power of the falls and taking photos, you return to the vehicle and head toward the Mount Bromo region. This drive adds some scenic transitions: rice terraces, plantation fringes, and highland vistas. Evening arrives, and you’ll set tent and do overnight by camping near the volcano with good access to sunrise vantage points. Dinner is served (depending on package) and you get a chance to rest early, ready for a predawn start.
Day 2 – Sunrise at Mount Bromo, Sea of Sand & Crater, Return
At approximately 3:00 a.m., you’re up and ready for the highlight of the tour: sunrise over Mount Bromo. A 4×4 jeep (shared or private) will pick you up and drive you through dark mountain roads to a key viewpoint such as Penanjakan or “King Kong” Hill. As dawn breaks, you’ll witness an awe‑inspiring panorama: the smoky crater of Mount Bromo, the ridged peak of Mount Batok and if weather allows, the distant Mount Semeru.
After soaking in the view and taking photos, you then descend back toward the caldera floor — the famous “Sea of Sand”, where the jeep crosses and you may stop for photo opportunities, and from there walk (or ride a horse if you opt in) the steps up to Mount Bromo’s crater rim. You’ll peer into the steaming volcanic vent and feel the raw power of the earth.
Afterwards you return to your tent for breakfast and check‑out. The drive back to your drop‑off point (Surabaya or Malang) takes place in the late morning and early afternoon, with arrival expected around 2:00‑3:00 pm. Along the way you’ll pass scenic highlands, local villages and perhaps stop for lunch on your own. With that your trip concludes—leaving you with unforgettable memories of epic landscapes and adventure.
