About the trip
Explore Indonesia’s main islands of Java and Bali with this thoughtfully paced, escorted tour from Explore Worldwide. Starting in Yogyakarta, the cultural capital of Java, the itinerary includes wandering the alleys of Kota Gede to try Batik and marvel at the Buddhist monument Borobudur—currently with limited access due to restoration—followed by the Hindu temple plains of Prambanan. From here, a six-hour train ride takes you east to Malang and then onward to the volcanic region near Mount Bromo with its crater and the vast Sand Sea.
