    NICE TRIP! Beautiful scene and good experience. Dede is an exceptionally wonderful guide. She always responded to our messages promptly and acted as a bridge in communicating with the locals, assisting us in overcoming all the challenges during our journey. She's lively, lovely, and always cheerful. we're especially grateful that she went the extra mile to mail back the tripod we accidentally left in the car. Thank you Dede🥳

    Out of this world views and a must-visit natural wonder in East Java.

    Incredible views, do not miss the opportunity to visit Mount Bromo if you’re in East Java or even coming from Bali! The scenery is like it’s from another planet and the ability to get right up onto the crater rim gave us a great look inside and made us feel very small. Do not expect solitude - there will be lots of other people joining you to watch sunrise - but it’s absolutely clear why when you experience this special place! The organisation was excellent from start to finish. In particular Gilang who took us up the mountain by 4wd was fantastic and very friendly, and Ipul who brought us from Surabaya to the Bromo area and back was great and really helpful and we enjoyed being their guest. The local guides who took us up to the viewing point and also to the waterfall were also brilliant. Despite us being tired from travelling and without sleep, adding on the visit to Bromo earlier to see the Milky Way from several different viewpoints, and also walking to the waterfalls on the way back to Surabaya is a must do. We have seen many beautiful waterfalls before but the scale and beauty of this one is staggering and well worth the stop. All in all a must do trip, and we’d recommend Tour Mount Bromo to take you on the experience if like us, you’re short on time and need the travel to work really smoothly.

    Response from the operator: Thank you so much for taking the time to share your feedback! Appreciate your kind words :) We also had the pleasure of serving you!

    A very happy journey

    Pickup was on time, transit was overall comfortable and reliable, the driver even escorted us to the train station when we depart to make sure we are at the right station. We went in early July and could see the galaxy extremely clearly (guide told us we were lucky to have no cloud or moon that night so I could not guarantee you'll see it that well too). The waterfall trip is also recommended too as it is actually more magnificent than what google map shows, plus it was quite an experience to actually walk into the waterfall and get all wet. Pros: Unique experience, good and reliable service. Does all what it says. Cons: Entrance fee of Mount Bromo and waterfall not included, plus we noted after we arrived at Surabaya some local tour could be cheaper. However I did not regret booking it and really enjoyed it.

    Mount Bromo Milky Way Photography and Sunrise Private Tour (1D1N): questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Surabaya.

    How much does Mount Bromo Milky Way Photography and Sunrise Private Tour (1D1N) cost?

    +

    Prices start at $216 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Surabaya usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Mount Bromo Milky Way Photography and Sunrise Private Tour (1D1N) take?

    +

    Plan for about 20 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Surabaya is not rushed.

    Is Mount Bromo Milky Way Photography and Sunrise Private Tour (1D1N) worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 65 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 6 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Surabaya, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Mount Bromo Milky Way Photography and Sunrise Private Tour (1D1N)?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Mount Bromo Milky Way Photography and Sunrise Private Tour (1D1N) suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 20-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Mount Bromo Milky Way Photography and Sunrise Private Tour (1D1N)?

    +

    Around 2 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Surabaya can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Surabaya and add a light layer if any part of the 20-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Mount Bromo Milky Way Photography and Sunrise Private Tour (1D1N) start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Surabaya within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Surabaya?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Surabaya experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Surabaya - Mount Bromo – Tumpak Sewu Waterfall – Ijen Bluefire Tour - Bali 4d3n, From Surabaya / Malang : Mt Bromo Sunrise - Ijen Blue Fire 3D2N, 4D3N Bromo Ijen Tumpak Sewu Waterfall Tour from Surabaya/Malang. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Surabaya?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Surabaya?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in Mount Bromo Milky Way Photography and Sunrise Private Tour (1D1N)?
