Java Island Tour

Java Island Tour

Java island tours from Yogyakarta go beyond the city: the temple plains of Central Java, the volcanic ridge of Bromo and Ijen in the east, and the long road that connects them.

Short routes of three or four days usually cover Borobudur, Prambanan and the Dieng plateau. Longer ones continue to Bromo for sunrise and Ijen for the blue fire, ending in Banyuwangi or continuing to Bali by ferry. Driving days on the eastern routes are long, often six to eight hours, so the order of stops matters more than the number of them.

Check where each night is spent, whether the hotels are near the trailheads, and what happens if the Ijen crater is closed by gas or weather. Trains are an alternative for the Yogyakarta to Surabaya leg and can cut a full day of driving from the itinerary.
