SMOKING VOLCANOES | BALI TO BROMO

Welcome to Bali, the Island of the Gods! Upon arrival, guests are greeted with a complimentary airport transfer and settled into the hotel to unwind after the long journey. After lunch, we’ll gather for a relaxed tour overview and safety briefing before heading out for a short afternoon warm-up ride to get comfortable on the bikes and familiar with local road conditions. As the day winds down, we’ll make our way to the beach to watch the fading sunset before finally enjoying a delicious welcome dinner by the ocean

We begin our journey from the breezy surf & beach vibes of Pantai Kedungu on Bali’s west coast and set off northward through Tabanan’s sprawling farmlands and tranquil rural landscapes. Next we’ll venture inland and upwards making our way up the lush hillside roads towards slopes of Mount Batukaru where we will stop for a moment to stretch our legs, and breathe the fresh mountain air. Then we will continue our ride toward the serene northern villages of Munduk where we will have a short trek to cool off in a secret waterfall, followed by a traditional Balinese lunch. Feeling refreshed and energized, finally our route takes us to the secluded coastal setting on the far north-west tip of Bali — a perfect endpoint to relax and enjoy the sunset after a beautiful first days ride.

We begin our second day’s ride along Bali’s quiet north-west coastal highway, through the dry monsoon forests and mangrove-fringed shores of West-Bali National Park toward Gilimanuk harbor where we’ll board the morning ferry across the Bali Strait. This short and scenic crossing with views of mountains rising in the distance is a unique cultural experience all on it’s own. Once ashore, we continue through East Java’s serene countryside, passing through rice fields, small villages, and winding stretches of forested hills. Around midday we pause for a laid-back lunch at a local warung nestled by the roadside. Good food, shade, a well deserved breather before continuing onward through wide open landscapes and rural backroads, finally arriving at our next destination.

We begin our fourth day’s journey riding east through small rural villages and along quiet stretches of coastal roads towards the lush foothills of the Bromo–Tengger volcanic highlands. The morning starts with warm air and open farmland bordered by teak and acacia trees before the road gradually rises into greener, more shaded terrain. As we climb higher, the scenery transitions into dense mid-elevation forests of bamboo and evergreen trees, with coffee plantations scattered along the slopes. The air cools noticeably as the route winds upward through misty montane forests filled with tall pines and tree ferns, a clear sign that we’re nearing higher altitudes. By afternoon, the vegetation opens into sweeping grasslands and sparse mountain pines as we cruise along the Bromo ridgeline with stunning views of the valleys below. The day concludes at our beautiful highland accommodation, surrounded by crisp air and impressive panoramic views

After several days on the road, today’s ride invites a well deserved change of pace and a deeper connection with this incredible landscape. From the steps of our ridgeline resort, we’ll explore the surrounding area, descending into the vast Tengger caldera where volcanic backdrop gives way to the otherworldly expanse of the Sea of Sands. The ride across its ashen plains offers an exhilarating sense of open freedom — a striking contrast to the paddy fields and lush forests of previous days. For those seeking an extra dose of adventure, an optional climb to the crater rim awaits, where panoramic views of Mount Bromo and the surrounding peaks stretch endlessly across the horizon. By afternoon, we return to our mountain retreat — a secluded haven of comfort and calm set among the misty ridgelines — to unwind, enjoy a warm meal, and recharge in the cool mountain air.

Our final day begins long before dawn, as engines hum quietly to life at 3 a.m. and headlights cut through the cool mountain mist. The ascent toward Kawah Ijen is a steady climb through volcanic slopes and ancient forest, where the air grows sharper with altitude and the stars seem close enough to touch. This mountain is a marvel of geology as its crater holds one of the world’s largest highly acidic lakes, an otherworldly turquoise basin fed by underground sulfur vents that glow blue in the night due to ignited gas emissions. Few places on Earth offer such a rare and surreal sight. As the first light breaks over the horizon, the view from the rim is nothing short of breathtaking and well worth the extra effort to get there.

After the descent, we return to our serene mountain hideaway tucked beside a quiet river, where a hearty breakfast and steaming coffee await in a rustic yet refined setting. With hearts full and spirits high, we make our final journey back across the Bali Strait, tracing familiar roads to our finish line back in Kedungu. The tour concludes as it began — with ocean breezes and good company — cold beers in hand, laughter in the air, and a shared sense of accomplishment that only an adventure like this can bring.
