- Gunung Penanjakan - Guests will be picked up at 05:00 from their accommodation in Malang city. The journey follows a route through Tumpang village and along the southwestern slope of Bromo’s caldera, taking approximately 2.5 hours.
Upon arrival at Mount Penanjakan, local snacks accompanied by hot coffee and tea will be available. A brief walk leads to the actual viewpoint.
The scenery is breathtaking. The striking black volcanic ashen Sand Sea, Mount Bromo, and Mount Batok with the shadow of Mount Semeru—Java’s highest and one of its most active volcanoes—in the background offer remarkable views.
- Sand Sea - After visiting the Penanjakan viewpoint, the descent into the Sand Sea begins. This lunar-like landscape is unique. Take your time to enjoy a walk.
- Luhur Poten Temple - Luhur Poten Temple stands watch over Mount Bromo and the caldera. This modest temple is actively used by the local Hindu community. Although often closed, it remains an impressive sight in harmony with its surroundings.
- Mount Bromo - Parking is available near Luhur Poten Temple. From there, it’s about a 45-minute walk to the crater rim of the active Bromo volcano. Remember to occasionally look back.
Upon reaching the top, there is an opportunity to explore and relax while taking in the views.
- Teletubbies Hill - The lush green savanna—especially during the rainy season and the beginning of the dry season—and the hills south of Mount Bromo, yet still within the caldera, present a magnificent landscape that will be crossed twice. This savanna is visible only when starting the tour in Malang.

Memorable Tour. - Excellent experience with Smartine Travel! Vinda provided prompt and clear responses to all my queries. Communication before the tour was clear. Our English-speaking guide, Andre, was knowledgeable and mindful of our family’s safety throughout especially during the hike. The driver, Bonde, was skilled and ensured a safe journey throughout. The tour was well organised and truly an unforgettable experience for our family. Highly recommended !

A Well Curated Bromo Panorama Tour with Thoughtful Guidance and Seamless Execution - Chose an excellent panoramic tour led by Andre, our English-speaking guide, and Bonde, a highly skilled driver. The journey itself was smooth and scenic, with timely insights from Andre that added context without disrupting the experience. At each stop, he shared deep local knowledge, pointed out prime lookout spots for photography, and was attentive to our family’s safety, especially on the walk up and down the Bromo crater. His flexibility in adjusting the itinerary due to poor weather and unforeseen circumstances was commendable. The day concluded perfectly with a satisfying late lunch, rounding off a well-managed and memorable experience.

Go with this company! - Hands down, the best experience we could have asked for!
The tour combines Coban Pelangi Waterfall with Bromo Park. We went up to the crater & our driver took us to different viewpoints to snap stunning pictures. He was nice, polite, and very patient with us. The jeep experience was super fun. Lunch was served at a nice café on our way back & it was also included in the price. 5 stars! Thank you guys for this incredible day!

Recommended - The tour was great. We were picked up on time by a lovely driver in a jeep with whom he drove us from stop to stop.
The Bromo is really worth seeing, but also at later time ~8am quite crowded, I don't want to know how crowded it is there in the early morning.
The ascent is also feasible for fuller individuals, albeit exhausting.
Also the descent/ascent to the waterfall.
All in all a great trip. Thanks to our driver.

Beautiful spots and cozy tour - I would like to express my sincere appreciation for Smartine who organized the Bromo tour during our tour of Java and Bali. We had booked well in advance and were picked up by French and Aditya on the day of the tour. French quickly took us across the country from Malang to Ketapang and Aditya shared fascinating stories about the Bromo and Indonesia throughout the tour and journey. Despite a delay due to a public holiday, it was a great experience. Thanks to Smartine we enjoyed a carefree, enjoyable and above all enjoyable tour. Thanks for arranging Lita, and thanks for the cozy day Aditya and French!

Unforgettable Beauty On Mount Bromo - an unforgettable experience, the beauty of Mount Bromo at sunrise is a very extraordinary and unforgettable experience, especially being able to get to the top of the crater and see its beauty in person, I hope there is an opportunity to be able to go there and see its beauty again

Fantastic bromo experience - Incredible experience watching the sun rise over Bromo. Be warned that it will be cold and you will be outside for HOURS—dress as warmly as you possibly can! Great driver who was very willing to take photos of us. Cool to share the experience with someone else from the hostel too. All because of Vinda who got this arranged for us last minute! We cannot thank her enough <3

Great trip to see Mount Bromo! - Our trip to Mount Bromo was such a great experience. Martine helped us customize the tour to our needs, as we wanted to start in Malang, skip the sunrise, visit Bromo and Madakaripura, and then end in Surabaya. The tour is quite a unique experience, both the volcano and the waterfall are quite spectacular. Communication before the trip and even during was excellent. Part of our group changed their mind at the last minute and they wanted to end their tour early. Martine was so helpful in arranging additional transport, despite the very late notice - I really appreciated this. All in all, would definitely recommend this company for trips around the area.

The worst experience of our life - The worst experience of our life. The jeep was in terrible condition and left us twice lying when going to Bromo. The second already in the middle of a two-way road where also the driver, with a precarious Englishman, abandoned us to move the jeep and there was almost no mobile coverage. When he came back to pick us up he was an hour trying to fix it and, half working, he put us on Bromo and we did the climb two hours later than planned. Then they provided us with another car and driver but we no longer wanted to go and said to take us back to the hotel. I believe that it is extremely irresponsible to use vehicles in such an unfortunate state, with the danger that this poses. I will never hire a Tripadvisor tour again. Much better to do it directly through the hotel.
