A Magical Discovery of Asia
A unique combination of Southeast Asia's most magical sites; Borobudur, Angkor Wat and Luang Prabang.
Part of the Bromo Tengger Semeru National Park and 2,329 ft above sea level, the active Mount Bromo in East Java is part of some of the most dramatic scenery in Java, no easy feat in this island of jaw dropping scenery. Watching the sunrise over the vast volcanic peaks and craters of the national park, along with the lush green fields of the hills below, is a beautiful and incredibly peaceful sight.
Following an early rise you will be taken, at first by jeep and then on foot, to a natural platform overlooking Mount Bromo’s caldera to watch view the spectacular sunrise over the crest of the volcano and the national park beyond. Starting in darkness you will witness the unmasking of the beauty of the peaks and often shrouded in mist, the vast expanse of green below will open up to create a dramatic contrast with the dark rock and sulphur of the caldera.
After a short drive to the flat plane of the caldera base, covered in the silver dust of sulphur, you will have the option of a pony ride past the Hindu temple of Pura Luhur Poten and to the base of the volcanic peak. After climbing up the steep sides of the peak you will be able take in the magnificent view of its crater lake and the surrounding mountains now firmly emblazed in the glory of the bright sun. You will then be taken back to your hotel to relax and recover from the early start.
You can include this experience as part of an Experience Travel Group holiday designed exclusively for you.
