Overview

Read 2 reviews and enjoy exclusive savings on G Adventures 9 Day Best of Java. With a population of 135 million crammed into just under 140,000 sq km, you'd think there'd be no room on Java left for adventuring. As densely populated as it is, this amazing stretch of Indonesia has loads of unexplored corners just waiting for travellers looking for something a little different. From Jakarta, you'll venture to the curiously European-like city of Bandung (the “Paris of Java") en route to Yogyakarta, home to the island's monstrous volcanoes. Then wrap it all up on the gorgeous Balinese beaches read more of Sanur. (Hey, if you can't beat the crowd, join it!)

Itinerary

Welcome to Indonesia's modern metropolis, and capital city, on the coast of Java. There are no planned activities until the evening welcome meeting, so get out there and explore. Stay: 1O1 URBAN Jakarta Thamrin Hotel

Enjoy a guided city tour of Jakarta visiting the former Batavia area, remnants of the colonial past, and stroll through the Sunda Kelapa Harbour. In the afternoon, depart for Bandung surrounded by volcanic peaks and tea plantations. Opt to see the Angklung Orchestra, where you'll hear resonating traditional melodies created by shaking bamboo instruments. Stay: Arion Suite Hotel (B)

Board a morning train and take in the beautiful scenery on the ride to Yogyakarta, steeped in ancient ruins and culture. On arrival, opt to go on a cycling tour or take in a Ramayana dance performance. Stay: KJ Hotel Yogyakarta (B)

Venture to the Prambanan Hindu temple complex, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and wander through the remains of some 244 temples, with some towering out of the rubble. Spend the afternoon at leisure. Stay: KJ Hotel Yogyakarta (B)

Visit Borobudur, the largest Buddhist sanctuary in the world and another UNESCO World Heritage Site. Spend time exploring the pyramid-like complex, admiring the intricate carvings, and come away with a deeper understanding of Buddhist culture here. Later, enjoy free time to continue exploring Yogyakarta. Stay: KJ Hotel Yogyakarta (B)

Continue the journey across the agricultural heartland of Java to Ngadas, a village in the scenic Mt Bromo region. Experience the local culture with a G Adventures-supported community homestay. Stay: Ngadas Homestay (B/D)

Start early today (approximately 2:30am) for a pre-dawn trek across the “sea of sand” to Mt Bromo. Watch the sunrise over the crater’s rim, popular with both tourists and the local Buddhist Tenggerese, who can be seen giving offerings to receive blessings from the Supreme God Hyang Widi Wasa. Head back to Ngadas for lunch before exploring more of the village on an included walk. Later, travel to Malang for the night. Stay: Whiz Prime Malang (B/L)

Great tour through Java 0 , WA, Australia, Jul 2024
Great group of travellers and a great guide with Mangun! Good local knowledge and always very organised 😁 Optional Tours were all exceptional and our bus drivers were all friendly and experienced.
Best of Java Tour really was the BEST! 1 , VIC, Australia, Jun 2023
Our G Adventures trip really did exceed expectations! Our CEO Panji was a 10/10 tour guide who went above and beyond in many different ways. Java was a complete unknown before we went but turned out to be a real gem. The highlights are too many to mention but here are a few: Homestay in Ndgas, 2am sunrise trip in 4x4s to see view towards Mt Bromo, walking read more the Sea of Sand and climbing to the rim of Mt Bromo, our meals on authentic Indonesian places, and meeting 10 other wonderful travellers! Booking through Global Journeys was very easy and Tracey was always helpful and efficient.
