What you can expect

Pick up from Banyuwangi

We will pick you up from your hotel in Banyuwangi roughly between 12:05 and 12:30 AM, depending on your hotel location. Drive to Kawah Ijen with stopover at local medical clinic to get health certificate as a requirement to be able to hike Kawah Ijen.

Kawah Ijen Blue Fire Tour

When you arrive at Paltuding at around 2:00 AM, take a short rest to prepare for the hike while we complete the registration. Start your hike through the steep track in the dark under the moonlight and stars. After arriving at the crater top, descend into the crater for about 30 minutes. Beware of the narrow rocky track, please use your good shoes with proper grip to make the walk easier. See the blue fire phenomenon at the crater lake bottom and see how sulphur mining is processed.

After seeing the blue fire, we take you to hike back to the top of the crater to get to the panoramic viewpoint. Here you can see the whole landscape of Kawah Ijen from the top, and enjoy the spectacular view of the green acid lake. This is the best place to take a selfie photo and make a short video for your Instagram feed. Flying a drone from here is also a good way to capture the whole landscape of the area.

Meet the strongest men on earth who can carry almost 100 kg of sulphur rocks on their shoulders only using a handmade bamboo basket. Be more respectful to them as they are not just a tourist attraction by simply saying hello when you meet them, sharing a path with them, or maybe you can buy a souvenir they made for small money.

Drop off back to Banyuwangi
We will drop you off back to your hotel in Banyuwangi roughly between 09.00-10.00 AM. You can continue to go to Ketapang Ferry Port by hiring a Grab or Gojek, the ferry leaves every 30 minutes and is available for 24 hours.
