Top Highlights

  • Tengger calderaSleep on the caldera rim so the 3 AM start is a walk to a jeep and not a four-hour drive.
  • Penanjakan viewpointBromo sits inside a much larger caldera, still smoking, reached across a sand sea on foot or horseback.
  • Sea of Sand
  • Padar viewpointThe Padar climb is 20 minutes of steps for the three-bay view.
  • Komodo National ParkOn Komodo a ranger with a forked stick walks with you, and that is a real precaution.
  • Manta PointMantas feed on the current at Manta Point most mornings in season.

Pace was set for the fastest people in the group and it made the middle days hard.

East Java & Flores in the right season is something else, and the team knew exactly where to camp. Good value for what's included.

Did this over 6 days and it was the best walking I've done in years. Plenty to eat and they were happy to work around a gluten allergy.

East Java & Flores in the right season is something else, and the team knew exactly where to camp. Tents were warmer than expected and the camp was set up before we arrived. Simple food, well made, and enough of it. No hesitation recommending them.

Well organised from the pickup onwards. The daily distances were honest about what they'd be. Plenty to eat and they were happy to work around a gluten allergy. Recommended.

Well organised from the pickup onwards. The daily distances were honest about what they'd be. Sleeping under canvas at that height is cold work and the kit was up to it. Plenty to eat and they were happy to work around a gluten allergy. Solid operator.
