Mount Bromo is probably Indonesia’s most famous volcano. It sits at the Eastern end of Java between Surabaya and Yogyakarta and is quite often lumped in as part of a tour heading out of one of those two cities. This typically involves taking a private van with a few other tourists and staying in accommodation that has been pre-booked. The bus will make multiple stops at pre-arranged eateries and rest stops. The guest houses may or may not be nice to stay in. The experience will be cookie-cutter. It will end at Mount Bromo for the sunrise, where multiple vans arrive with boat loads of tourists who will leave shortly after 5am. It requires very little effort, and is rather anticlimactic.
