East Java’s Pasuruan region packs serious natural punch. The standout tours here center around Mount Bromo‘s volcanic landscapes and the spectacular Tumpak Sewu Waterfall. I’m especially fond of the 3-day combination tours that include both sights – they offer the perfect mix of adventure and local culture without feeling rushed.
The sunrise trips to Mount Bromo, whether from Probolinggo or Surabaya, are absolutely worth the early wake-up call. You’ll get those classic Java volcano views without the crowds. For those coming from Bali, several operators run excellent 3-day tours that hit all the highlights while providing comfortable transport and knowledgeable guides.
Let’s look at our favorite Pasuruan tours and what makes them special.
