Essential information for your private East Java tour.

Is Mt. Bromo Open Today?

Mt. Bromo access is controlled by TNBTS (Taman Nasional Bromo Tengger Semeru) and can be affected by volcanic activity monitored by PVMBG (Center for Volcanology and Geological Hazard Mitigation).

JVTO monitors Bromo access status daily. If you have an upcoming booking, our team will contact you proactively if any access restrictions apply. If you are planning a trip, WhatsApp us for the current status.

How Bromo Access Works

Bromo operates at access levels set by PVMBG volcanic alert system:
