Bromo volcano travel guide
When it comes to Mount Bromo, there are almost no detailed information about self-help tours on many social networking sites and encyclopedias in China. Even if there are some, most of them are very brief. It seems that most domestic travelers prefer to choose travel packages from travel agencies as originally thought, so they have no choice but to search in English, and they have to go through one English website after another, showing their patience in checking information for their clients' ancestors at work, and finally see a relatively detailed travel book on an English travel website. Let's take a look at this travel note and the experience of a donkey friend.
Baggage preparation1. Clothes (volcanoes need thick clothes in the spring and autumn, or thin down jackets, scarves, hats and gloves are optional. Don't think that all short-sleeved shorts are here in the tropics. Of course, I have seen foreigners wearing summer clothes in Brama, but I think most people can't stand it) 2. Sports shoes (because you need to climb mountains, you don't want to walk 5 kilometers in a pair of shoes that are difficult to walk, and you'd better not wear your favorite shoes. It will hurt your heart when it rains. Don't ask me how I know) 3. Masks (some people rent gas masks at the foot of the mountain. In fact, you can smell sulfur only when you stretch your neck in the crater, and you can't smell anything at all in other places. There are enough masks, and it doesn't matter if you don't even have them) 4. Flashlights/headlights (almost all of you come to Brama to watch the sunrise, so you need to leave around 3: 00 in the morning. If the moonlight is not bright enough, flashlights are necessary, so is the flash of your mobile phone, but you should keep the electricity Or choose to rub someone else's flashlight) 5. Switching plug (Indonesia uses two round-hole sockets, or the one with a round recess, and the conventional global switching head can't be plugged in, but the picture below) 6. Other conventional items, toiletries, photographic equipment, etc. can be carried according to personal needs.
About trafficThe starting point of Bromo volcano traffic is Probolinggo, but the starting point of sightseeing is Camoro Lawang (a town at the foot of the volcano), so you may need to arrive at Pangyue from Jakarta/Surabaya/Yogyakarta/Malang/Bali and other places first. Because Brama is a very famous tourist attraction in Indonesia, the transportation in Pangyue is very convenient. I arrived in Pangyue from Malang this time, so here's how to get to Brama from Malang.
Step 1: Take the local bus angkot in Malang (in fact, it's just a van reconstruction) or take a taxi to the Arjosari Bus Station in Malang Bus Station.
Step 2: Go to the station to find 3/4 of the platform for Pangyue. If you can't find it, ask someone and say Probolinggo will show you. Get on the bus and buy a ticket. There is no fixed departure time. They will ask you whether you want to do Economic or business. I don't know the difference between the two. Business should be faster and more expensive. I took the economical 20k, and the car was ok, just a lot of passengers got on and off the road, about 3 hours.
Step 3: When Pang Yue gets off the bus, someone will shout Lawang. If you don't hear someone shout, ask, Camoro Lawang, someone will take you to the side of the road outside the station. There is a row of bright minivan parked there, and then just wait there for the carpool. Only when the car is full can you leave, 35k for each person, so it's easier to get a car when you arrive at Pang Yue as early as possible. If the number of people is dissatisfied, others will have to share the cost of other vacant seats (16 seats).
stayThere are many hotels in Camoro Lawang town. If you book as early as possible on weekends and holidays, you will have more choices. Generally speaking, the accommodation conditions are poor, and they are all family hotels and the like. They will also provide half-day tours or one-day tours. My cost is 100k.
have a mealYou can carry some water and food in the bag when you walk in the morning to watch the sunrise. There are also many small shops selling coffee and instant noodles on the road, so don't worry about getting hungry. In many small restaurants in the village, my favorite is the roadside stall Bakso, which is actually meatball soup, with a serving of 10-20k. There are all kinds of meatballs, fried dough twists, fried wonton, etc. There is a texture similar to oyster sauce in the soup, but I don't know what sauce is sweet and salty. I stand by the cart with a bowl and eat it. It's very hot. It's best not to watch him wash the dishes after eating. But Malang's seems to be better.
The latest ticket prices in BramaMonday to Friday: Indonesians 27.5k foreigners 220k Saturday to Sunday: Indonesians 31.5k foreigners 320k foreign tourists are ten times as many as locals ~ ~ ~
