🌟 Highlights: Volcanoes, waterfalls, dolphins, and island experiences all in one! 🗓 Itinerary: Day 1: Surabaya Airport Pickup ✈️🛏️ • Arrive in Surabaya: Head straight to the hotel to rest and adjust. It is recommended to exchange for Indonesian Rupiah in advance and prepare small cash (some attractions require cash payment). • Recommended items: Lightweight jacket, mosquito repellent, power bank. • Tips: There are many hotels near Surabaya Airport. It is recommended to choose a hotel with breakfast for an early start the next day. Day 2: Tumpak Sewu Waterfall (Sewu) 🌊🌿 • Recommended activities: • Hike through the jungle, climb bamboo ladders with your hands and feet, and unlock the spectacular misty scenery of the "Thousand Layer Waterfall". • Walk through the Water Curtain Cave and take pictures of the volcanic rocks. Remember to take a photo with the "Love Heart Sky" 📸! • Essential equipment: Non-slip stream tracing shoes, quick-drying clothes, waterproof phone case. • Transportation Tips: It is about 4 hours drive from Surabaya to Sewu. It is recommended to charter a car or join a small group. The driver is familiar with the road conditions. Day 3: Mount Bromo (Bromo) 🌋🌅 • Itinerary Highlights: • At 3:00 AM, take a jeep to the viewing platform to watch the sunrise break through the clouds, and the volcanic group awakens like the "surface of the moon". • Hike or ride a horse to the top of the crater, listen to the roar of the earth's core, and feel the shock of the sulfurous smoke. • Essential items: Thick coat (the top of the mountain is close to 0℃), mask (to prevent volcanic ash), goggles. • Tips: There is no guardrail on the edge of the crater, pay attention to safety when taking pictures! After going down the mountain, you can go straight to accommodation near Ijen volcano. Day 4: Ijen Blue Fire (Ijen) 🔥🌌 • Recommended experience: • Depart at midnight: Hold a headlamp and hike through the misty forest to witness the world's rare "blue fire". • After dawn: Overlook the emerald volcanic lake and photograph the scene of sulfur miners and the stunning scenery. • Essential equipment: Gas mask (buy in advance), trekking pole, gloves (climbing with hands and feet). • Transportation connection: After going down the mountain, take a car to Banyuwangi Pier, take a boat to Bali (1 hour by boat), and check in to a hotel near Lovina. Day 5: Lovina Dolphin Watching + Snorkeling + Ubud + Penida Sunset 🐬🌅 • 6:00 AM: Take a spider boat to the sea to watch the dolphins dancing with the sunrise (success rate is as high as 90%!). • Snorkeling recommendation: Manta Point near Penida Island, swim with manta rays 🤿🐠! • Afternoon itinerary: • Ubud: Visit the Tegalalang Rice Terrace swing, Ubud Palace, and traditional market (bargaining tips for handicrafts: cut in half!). • Penida Sunset: Take a speedboat to the island in the evening and go straight to the west line to watch the stunning sunset of "Elves' Cliff". Day 6: Penida Island West Line + Airport Transfer 🏝️✈️ • Must-see on the west line: • Kelingking Beach: The Apple wallpaper location, the cliff is shaped like a dinosaur's back 📸. • Angel’s Billabong: A natural infinity pool, the romance of waves hitting the reefs. • Return reminder: The last boat from Penida Island is around 4:00 PM. It is recommended to leave the island before 2:00 PM and reserve enough time to go to the airport. 🌟 Useful tips 1. Visa: Visa on arrival is USD 35, prepare cash in advance. 2. Transportation: Surabaya → Bali, choose a plane (1 hour, CNY 200) to avoid the fatigue of boat + car journey. 3. Safety: The volcanic road is steep, it is recommended to follow the local guide; there is no guardrail on the cliff of Penida Island, keep a distance when taking pictures. 4. Clothing: Quick-drying clothes + sun hat + sunglasses. The temperature difference between the island and the volcano is large, so prepare clothes for all seasons. ✨ Itinerary Highlights: Twin volcano sunrise, waterfall stream tracing, dolphin swimming, wallpaper-level island, one-time visit to Indonesia's wildest scenery! Save it and set off~🚀🌏
