Recommendation: Surabaya - Probolinggo
arrived in Surabaya precisely at Pasar Turi station, then can find bus between cities to Pasuruan (tosari) or destination to terminal probolinggo. Travel time is approximately 2 hours with bus fare of Rp.15.000, - The closest area to bromo if via probolinggo cemara lawang village.
alternative: Surabaya - Malang
Arriving in Surabaya precisely at Pasar Turi station, your next destination should be to Malang Duration of travel approximately 2 hours with bus fare of Rp.15.000, -
Arriving in Malang you can rent elf or angkot to Pananjakan. but for tours to Bromo and surrounding areas you must meneyewa Jeep which is available specifically for the field. the tariff for Jeep alone around Rp.300.000, - special Pananjakan course but this has not been with the place around Bromo. (to get to where other attractions are charged extra). Pananjakan this is a famous viewpoint in Bromo. from here you can see Mount Bromo and the sea of sand around it.
In viewpoint Pananjakan we stop and then climb about 200-300 meters more or less to reach the place for viewing Sunrise. If you are lazy to walk there is a motorcycle taxi who willing to take you with the cost of Rp 10,000.
accommodation
For lodging in Bromo available many places such as villas, as well as homes that residents can be a place to spend the night. Budget lodging at a modest lodging Rp.100.000, - or if you want to rent a villa for the crowds around Rp. 400.000, -

Other Fee - Entrance Ticket

- Tourism Objects
stairs to the summit of GunungSunrise in Bromo is very popular, get ready to jostle with other tourists who want to capture this moment. In addition you can also climb up to the crater of Mount Bromo, the journey takes about 30 minutes. if you are lazy to walk you can rent a horse worth Rp 70.000. In addition there is still a sea of sand used in the filming of 'Pasir Berbisik', starring Dian Sastro and Christine Hakim. somehow called sand whisper, probably because if we close the ears on the sand there will be a whisper that occurs due to the wind. about 45 minutes drive to Probolinggo, you can visit Madakaripura waterfall, a waterfall with thick historical feel Majapahit is a pity to miss if you have more time in Bromo.
Itinerary Suggestion:
if you want to see the sunrise at Bromo should get up early when going to Pananjakan, because it will be a lot of Jeep who take other tourists, so the more morning we come the road to the location not too far and still can find a place to sit to see the sunrise. that time I reached Pananjakan around 4.30 and itupun was a bit late because it was crowded.
- Weather
When I visited, the weather conditions in Bromo was rather cloudy and had drizzle but not heavy rain. the time was very unfortunate when I was there again cloudy weather so the sun was somewhat covered with clouds. Surely the dry season around July - September is the right time because you will get a clear view of Mount Bromo and not covered with clouds.
- Packing List
while in Bromo do not have a lot of carrying luggage, goods you can stay at the inn or can also be placed in the Jeep. So it will not trouble you walking later.
- Tips
Bring things as necessary just do not have too much luggage so it will complicate your trip.
Bring a Jacket, Head Cover, Scarves, Gloves, Socks because the weather in Bromo is very cold.
More advisable to wear shoes.
Bring enough food and drinks.
Ask the hp number angkot caretaker before making an appointment when you ask to be picked up.
