We were offered a cheap package a few years ago. The bus left from Legian about 11.30am. and we travelled non stop except for a tea break for an hour. We arrived at Bromo about midnight, our advice is take warm clothes as it is freezing up there. Even though the trip is very tiring we loved it so much we went back a year later and did it in our own time. We stayed 4 days at Cemara Indah Hotel which is on the edge of the crater and you can sit outside and watch Bromo smoke. We did hear it was erupting not so long ago and tourist were not allowed to climb it anyhow why we did it a second time was because of the sulphur blowing in our face a few couldn't climb it and so they wanted to go back and give it another go.
