Awantour.com. – Embark on the Mount Bromo Ijen Crater Sharing Tour from Yogyakarta and journey through volcanic landscapes, rugged calderas, and mystical blue flames. Starting from Yogyakarta, this shared‑group 3 days 2 nights adventure leads you to the summit of Mt. Bromo just before sunrise and then onward to the enigmatic Mount Ijen, where you’ll witness the surreal “blue fire” phenomenon and turquoise acid lake. You’ll travel with fellow adventurers, share transport and guides, and finish in Banyuwangi (so you may continue to Bali or other destinations). This tour blends natural beauty, moderate trekking, local culture, and photo opportunities.
Mount Bromo Ijen Crater Sharing Tour from Yogyakarta (3d2n) Itinerary
Day 1: Yogyakarta → Cemoro Lawang (Bromo area)
You begin your journey with a morning pick‑up from your Yogyakarta hotel (typically around 07:00–08:00). After brief introductions with the group and guide, you depart toward East Java. You’ll traverse scenic landscapes, rice paddies, and small towns, stopping for lunch en route (own expense). The drive from Yogyakarta to the Bromo region spans about 8 to 10 hours (depending on route and traffic).
In the late afternoon you reach Cemoro Lawang (also called Cemorolawang), the gateway village to this mount, perched at about 2,200 m altitude. Wikipedia Check in at a modest guesthouse or hotel, freshen up, have dinner (not included), and rest early — you’ll rise before dawn.
Day 2: Sunrise at Bromo, then transfer toward Ijen area
In the early hours (around 03:00 AM), your shared jeep departs from the hotel toward the viewpoint area, such as Mount Penanjakan, Kingkong Hill, or Seruni Hills. You’ll wait in the dark for sunrise, as the sky gradually lights up with golden hues illuminating Bromo’s crater, surrounding peaks, and the vast “Sea of Sand.”
After sunrise, your jeep will drive across the “Sea of Sand“, where you may walk (or optionally ride a pony) up ~250 steps to the crater rim to peer down into the active crater. Return to your hotel for breakfast, check out, and begin the journey eastward toward the Mount Ijen crater region.
The drive from Mount Bromo to the proximity of Mount Ijen (Bondowoso / Banyuwangi region) takes approximately 5–6 hours. You’ll pass through rural landscapes, plantations, and small towns. In the evening, arrive at a guesthouse or hotel near Ijen’s foothills (Bondowoso or Banyuwangi area), check in, rest, and prepare for the blue flame trek.
Day 3: Blue Fire Trekking → Banyuwangi (end)
After a short rest, around midnight or 00:30 AM your group departs for the Ijen trailhead (Paltuding). The drive is often ~1–1.5 hours. Upon arrival, you begin your trek (typically 1.5 to 2 hours uphill) guided by a local specialist. You’ll aim to reach the crater rim just before or at the moment the “blue fire” becomes visible in the darkness against the sulfur gas glow. After observing, descend into the crater, view the turquoise acid lake below, photograph, and then hike back down to the vehicle.
By dawn, you’ll return to base, enjoy breakfast at a local lodge or guesthouse, and then check out. From there, the tour ends with a drop-off in Banyuwangi city or Ketapang Port (for ferry to Bali) — whichever final endpoint is agreed. Some groups may also optionally transfer onward to Surabaya if your onward travel requires it.
Thus, the 3-days Mount Bromo Ijen Crater Sharing Tour from Yogyakarta gives you two epic natural highlights in one trip, with a shared‑group format that balances cost and companionship. The total journey time, walking, viewing, and transfers are carefully scheduled to maximize your experience without undue rush.
