November 11, 2021 Russell Mellin

We were three friends traveling together, we visited Mt Bromo and Mt Ijen in a 3D2N tour. Endri made sure our trip was perfectly organized. If you’re looking for a hustle-free tour for visiting both spots, this is the way to go. Jolo, our friendly driver arrived almost one hour before our pick up time to ensure our trip was synchronized. He was a good driver and he stopped along the road anytime we asked him to do so, to grab some food or having a break.
