Witness the rare blue flames of Ijen and a volcanic sunrise at Bromo on a tightly paced 2N/3D trek. This tour bundles entrances and guides, delivering crater descents, a jeep ride across the Sea of Sand and an optional waterfall detour.
More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You start before dawn on a gravel road under a sky thick with stars, the hum of a ferry engine fading as the driver steers toward Banyuwangi. By 3 a.m. you walk into a sulfur-scented mist, headlamp beam cutting through steam as miners pass with baskets heavier than their frames. The blue fire of Ijen—electric, brief—spits from fumaroles below the crater rim and feels like the mountain breathing; elsewhere on the itinerary, Bromo greets you with a sea of sand and a sunrise that paints calderas in slow fire.

2–3 days
Fitness Level
Moderate fitness: able to hike 1–3 hours on uneven, steep trails and handle early mornings and short vehicle transfers
Wildlife
History
The Tengger region preserves Hindu-Buddhist cultural practices distinct from much of Java; the Tenggerese people maintain ritual ties to Mount Bromo.
Conservation
Elevated foot traffic and sulfur extraction stress crater ecology—stick to trails, avoid littering, and respect miners’ working zones to reduce impact.
Reserve your spot on the Bali-Ijen Blue Fire Trek-Bromo-SUB, All Entrance Included, 2N3D today and enjoy a trusted, highly rated experience designed to help you make the most of your adventure.
Bring a reliable headlamp
Trail approaches start before sunrise on unlit, rocky tracks—hands-free light is essential for footing and reading terrain.
Use the supplied gas mask and extras
Ijen’s crater emits sulfur gas; use the provided mask and consider a spare bandana if you get light-headed.
Dress in layers for temperature swings
Nights and pre-dawn hours are chilly, while daytime treks across sand and low-elevation transfers are warm—insulating layers work best.
Protect your feet from sand and ash
Sturdy, closed shoes and gaiters or tightly laced boots keep grit out and improve traction on volcanic sand and crater steps.
Headlamp with extra batteries
Illuminates pre-dawn approaches and crater descents when there is no trail lighting
Sturdy hiking shoes (closed-toe)
Provide traction on loose volcanic sand and protection from hot rocks and ash
Warm jacket and wind layer
Nights and early mornings on the rim are cold—a lightweight insulated layer is practical
Reusable water bottle & electrolyte mix
Hydration is important during climbs and after exposure to sulfur fumes
