This weekend retreat begins with a visit to the magnificent Mount Bromo, known for its stunning surreal landscape. Hop on a 4WD to catch the rising sun casting its first rays over the surreal landscape of Tigger Caldera. The fuming Mount Bromo rising from the flat volcanic sand bed of the gigantic caldera will be a sight to behold. The top of Mount Bromo can be reached via 253 concrete steps making it one of the most accessible active volcanos in the world. End the trip with a visit to Surabaya, home to many of the nation’s fiercest independence fighters and thus known to locals as Kota Pahlawan (City of Heroes).

Day 02
CEMORO LAWANG – MOUNT BROMO – SURABAYA
You will be given an early morning wake up call at around 3 am to prepare for Mount Bromo sunrise hike. A 4WD will drive you to the neighbouring peak of Gunung Penanjakan (2770m) at the edge of the Tengger crater rim for sunrise over the Bromo landscape – a 10km wide caldera formed from the collapsed remnants of an ancient volcano. Rising from the flat volcanic sand bed of the caldera is the dormant core of Mount Batok (2440m) and the active volcano of Mount Bromo (2329m). Further south beyond the crater wall lies mighty Gunung Semeru (3676m) – the highest and most active volcano in Java. After sunrise, the 4WD will drive you over the Laotian Pasir (Sand Sea) to Poten – a Tenggerese Hindu temple beside Mount Bromo. From Poten, it is a 3km hike or pony ride to the base of Mount Bromo. You will then ascend a steep flight of 253 steps to the crater edge of Mount Bromo. Take a peep into the steaming crater where offerings of chickens, rice and money are still thrown into by Tengger Hindus to express their gratitude to the Gods. Leave the barren volcanic landscape to visit the quiet and beautiful Whispering Savannah nearby. Proceed back to your hotel in Surabaya (approx.4 hrs) for some rest before going for dinner and night market shopping in the evening.
