Mount Bromo
Rising above the clouds at 7,641 feet (2,329 meters), Mount Bromo is one of Indonesia’s most iconic volcanoes.

Ijen Crater
The Ijen Crater, or Kawah Ijen, is home to the legendary blue flames, a rare natural phenomenon caused by burning sulfur. As you trek up the mountain in the early morning hours, you’ll witness the flames dancing in the dark, a sight few places on earth can offer. By dawn, you’ll be greeted by the stunning turquoise lake inside the crater, the largest acidic lake in the world. Watching the sun rise over this unique landscape is nothing short of magical, and an experience you’ll remember for a lifetime.
Tumpak Sewu Waterfall
Known as Indonesia’s Niagara, Tumpak Sewu is a waterfall like no other. As the water cascades down a sheer cliff, creating a misty veil, you’ll feel like you’ve stepped into a hidden paradise. The hike to the base of the falls can be challenging, but the reward is worth every step. Surrounded by lush greenery, it’s the perfect place for nature lovers and adventure seekers alike. Don’t miss the chance to stand at the bottom and feel the power of the falls up close.
Madakaripura Waterfall
Tucked away in a tranquil gorge, Madakaripura Waterfall is a peaceful escape from the hustle and bustle. Steeped in history, this hidden gem is said to be the final meditation spot of Gajah Mada, one of Indonesia’s greatest historical figures. The waterfall cascades down towering cliffs, creating a mystical atmosphere as you walk through a curtain of water to reach its heart. It’s a serene and almost otherworldly experience, perfect for those seeking a moment of reflection amidst the adventure.
