2-Day Shared Tour to Bromo & Ijen Blue Fire from Banyuwangi Itinerary
Day 1: Blue Flames Midnight Trekking
Your adventure kicks off in Banyuwangi, where participants are picked up at around 00:00 midnight from hotels, train stations, or Ketapang Ferry Port. From there, a one-hour scenic drive takes you to Paltuding, the entrance gate to Ijen Crater.
After a quick safety briefing and preparation, you’ll begin your trek under the stars toward the top. This 3-kilometer hike takes about 1.5–2 hours. Along the way, you’ll be accompanied by a local guide who will explain the history and geology of the region, as well as the story behind the sulfur miners you’ll meet along the path.
Once at the crater rim, you’ll descend into the heart of the volcano to witness one of nature’s rarest phenomena: the Blue Flames. These stunning blue flames occur due to the combustion of sulfuric gases — a sight only visible before sunrise.
After watching the phenomena and sunrise over the crater lake, you’ll return to Paltuding for a light breakfast. Then, you’ll be transferred back to your hotel in Banyuwangi. The rest of the morning and afternoon are free for rest. In the evening, you’ll be transferred to a guesthouse near Bromo, a journey that takes around 6–7 hours by shared transport.

On the second day, you’ll wake up early once again — around 03:00 AM — and transfer to Cemoro Lawang. Here, you’ll board a 4WD Jeep with your fellow travelers.
The first destination is King Kong Hill Viewpoint, where you’ll witness the breathtaking sunrise over Mount Bromo, with views stretching across the Sea of Sand and the Semeru volcano smoking gently in the distance. This is the perfect moment for panoramic photography and quiet awe.
After sunrise, the Jeep will descend to the Sea of Sand, where you’ll walk or take a horseback ride to the base of mountain. A short hike up a set of stairs leads you to the crater rim, where you can peer into the steaming heart of this active volcano.
By 08:30 AM, you’ll return to your guesthouse for breakfast and a quick rest. Then, the group will begin the journey to Probolinggo and finish Program.
