Get an ideal mix of culture, activity, nature and beach relaxation on our Java In Depth tour. Starting in Yogyakarta, home to Indonesia’s premier cultural site, the World Heritage Borobudur temples, you move west to Solo, centre of Java’s Batik industry. Continue further west by train to see the spectacular and still active Bromo Volcano before visiting the crater and sulphur mines of Mt Ijen. A ferry crossing brings you to Bali where you spend a couple of days exploring the less visited, northern part of the island. Explore the many sights of East Bali and learn about the delights of traditional Balinese cooking in Ubud. From the terraced ricefields continue south to spend the last few days soaking up the sun on the beaches of Sanur.

Remember, this trip can be personalised to suit your travel needs - we can tailor everything from hotel, travel type, duration and more.
