Nous partons à Bali 17 jours, du 25/05 au 12/06/06.
Je voulais savoir si durant notre séjour, il était faisable de faire le volcan du mont Bromo sur l'ile de Java ?
Est-ce que nous perdrions pas trop de temps pour y aller et pour faire le volcan ?
J'ai vu sur un guide qu'un car partait quotidiennement de Denpasar pour Surabaya.
Mais comme nous voulons visiter Bali correctement, je voudrai savoir si cela valait vraiment le détour .... ??
Merci de vos réponses et conseils...

Mont Bromo super, fatiguant et FROID. Mais on a beaucoup aimé le paysage lunaire. Toute une expédition pour arriver de Bali, avion OK et ensuite un chauffeur qui roulait à 20kms /h, qui ne voulait jamais doubler les camions devant nous, et evidément ne savait pas conduire😠 L'horreur quoi, on voulait prendre le volant mais rien à faire, donc nous sommes arrivés à minuit à l'hôtel après une journée harrassante et lever à 3 heures du mat pour le départ au volcan. Mais ça vaut bien la peine, même la ballade en cheval (super touristique mais bon) et ensuite la grimpette pour monter au volcan avec le lever du soleil pour nous récompenser de nos "efforts"🙂
17 jours sur Bali me paraissent être très confortables pour visiter cette île 'correctement'.
Il y a effectivement des bus qui partent pour Surabaya. Vous descendrez donc à Probolingo pour rejoindre ensuite le site du Bromo.
Par contre, lors de mes voyages en 1996 et 1998, j'ai entendu pas mal d'histoires de touristes relatant différentes arnaques à Probolingo au niveau de certaines agences de voyages, voir de conducteur de bus, méfiance donc.....
En ce qui concerne la durée du voyage, comme précisé plus haut, la visite se fait tôt le matin, il vous faudra donc y consacrer de toute façon une journée entière pour le transport.
Un petit tuyau, lorsque vous serez au sommet du cratère (vous serez pas les seuls 🙁), ne faites pas comme la majorité des touristes qui, après le lever du soleil, redescendent dans la caldeira.
Dirigez vous du côté de la lèvre gauche du volcan (au sommet, en arrivant) et poursuivez votre chemin à travers les herbes hautes et environ après 45 min de marche, vous aurez un superbe panorama sur toute la caldeira, avec un panoramique du bromo et autres volcans alentours, et, surtout, un formidable vision du volcan Semeru avec son cône parfait, éructant à intervalles réguliers de superbes panaches de fumées.
La descente se fait ensuite à votre guise, soit en rebroussant chemin afin de rejoindre le Bromo, soit en descendant directement dans la caldeira depuis le point de vue du Semeru, mais c'est assez raide, pas balisé du tout mais vraiment une belle descente.
Et puis, tant que vous y êtes, pourquoi ne pas faire tirer jusqu'à Jogjakarta? Y consacrer 2 jours? (à ce moment là, partir directement pour Jogjakarta après la visite du Bromo). Ca vous laissera avec le Bromo une dizaine de jours sur Bali, ce qui est (à mon avis) sufffisant........
Si vous avez d'autres interrogations, n' hésitez pas.
Merci pour tous ces détails à vous deux.....
Apparemment Bromo vaut donc le détour... nous allons donc étudier ça de plus près !
Tu dis par contre que 17 jours sont bien suiffisants pour Bali .... mais il y a apparemment pas mal de choses à voir entre les différents monts, volcans et lacs ainsi que les rizières, les plages.... Nous venons d'acheter les billets d'avion et n'avons pas encore vraiment approffondi notre itinéraire. Que nous conseillerais-tu pour Bali ?
Et concernant Jogjakarta, est-ce loin de Surabaya ? qu'y a-t-il de spécial à voir ?
Encore merci pour toutes les infos données qui sont très précieuses lorsqu'on prépare un voyage !!

compagnie assez importante de transport / excursions à bali . plusieurs agents à bali offrent leurs services ...autobus, croisière, transport à bali, lombok, les gilis, java, sumbawa, excursions à bali, lombok, komodo, java...etc ( 175 000 rp par pers, pour env 1 journée) . pick up de l'hôtel possible .
"bromo sunrise tour " à 800 000 rp /pers (+ - 3 jours, incluant transport à partir de l'hôtel (bali), autobus, 1 nuit à hôtel une fois sur place, ..etc)
Pour Bali, c'est vrai que l'on pourrait y passer facilement un mois sans être 'saturé'.....
L'ambiance qui y règne, les paysages variés, l'accueil chaleureux et la culture unique de cette île font qu'en général, on y consacre plus de temps que prévu.
Ceci dit, c'est à vous de voir sur place.
Si comme tu le disais précédemment, tu veux une visite 'approfondie', 17 jours sont très bien, ça te permettra de sortir des sentiers battus un peu plus que lors d'une visite d'une dizaine de jours.
Je te donne en vrac quelques incontournables (à voir sur place selon les expériences des touristes, les récits des locaux, tes aspirations ).
De nombreux temples, dont certains à ne mas manquer (Ulu Watu, Tanah Lot, Pura Besakih, et j'en passe.....).
Ubud, la ville culturelle par excellence, avec aussi sa 'forêt aux singes', ses temples, son ambiance, ses alentours splendides.
Les volcans, dont le fameux mon Agung et son lac (Batur) que tu peux longer par la route.
Les plages, Lovina (pour voir les dauphins), Amed, et pourquoi pas les alentours de Padangbai, sans oublier la très sulfureuse et décriée, 'Kuta beach', qui présente une plage superbe et étendue (repère des surfers et autres zoizaux de passage), et qui présente le double avantage de concentrer la plupart des agences de voyages et autres 'tourist facilities' (pratique pour ceux disposant de peu de temps ou n'ayant pas envie de se prendre la tête), et d'être très proche de l'aéroport.
Les rizières en terasse omniprésentes, splendides au coucher du soleil.
Des vilages paumés au milieu d'une nature grandiose.
Et surtout une douceur de vivre à la balinaise...........
En me replongeant un peu plus dans mes souvenirs, je me dis finalement que 17 jours, ce n'est peut être pas de trop.
Ceci dit le Bromo vaut vraiment le coup, et Jogjakarta (ville culturelle par excellence ou l'art du batik et les spectacles de marionnettes s'expriment superbement ) également (palais du Kraton, marché aux oiseaux, ambiance des 'warungs' le soir.....).
Ses alentours regorgent de trésors culturels (temples de Borobudur, Prambanan), de sites naturels epoustouflants (volcan Merapi surpombant de superbes rizières), et comme à Bali, la population javanaise y est des plus accueillante.
Non, vraiment, c un dilemne de devoir choisir entre les 2.
Sans vouloir vous donnez de conseils, peut êter serait il bien d'envisager une éventuelle escapade sur Java, et ensuite de voir sur place selon vos attentes, vos aspirations.
Bref, si tu veux être encore plus indécise, surtout n'hésite pas 😉.
Dans les 2 cas, ce sera un voyage extraordinaire, ça au moins, j'en suis sûr.
Salut, j'aurais une petite question...nous on arrive par Jakarta en juin et on repart de Denpassar (Bali) mi-août... où sont les meilleurs endroits en Indonésie pour faire des achats de souvenirs, etc. Un peu comme à Chiang Mai au bazar de nuit pour faire les achats de souvenirs!
Pour les achats, bah c comme partout, ou y'a des touristes y'a des souvenirs 😉.
Je pense que Java, et Jogjakarta en particulier présente l'avantage de proposer des prix inférieurs à Bali.
A mon avis Jogjakarta est une bonne alternative pour les achats. Beaucoup de boutiques ou tu pourras trouver de superbes articles (originaux, contrairement à Bali) pour des prix raisonnables. Jogja. est la capitale culturelle de Java, donc plein de trucs à ramener.
Quant à Bali, Kuta reste la Mecque du shopping avec absolument tout ce dont tu peux imaginer.
Des stautes de Bornéo (authentiques?) en passant par les tissus, la déco. intérieure, toutes sortes de breloques, etc., etc.
Assurément Bali présente le plus grand éventail en matière de souvenirs (pas toujours de très bon goût, mais ça, ça ne se discute pas).
En résumé, Java et Jogjakarta en particulier pour des achats peut être un peu plus authetiques (batiks, marionnettes, kriss, masques) et Bali pour ramener plein de babioles.
Oui c'est ça, je veux des souvenirs typiquements Indonésien...pas trop touristiqque...ouin... je commence par Javà.... entk o pire on retournera en avion à Jogya. heheh aller retour. Merci, Geneviève.
Tu trouveras de tout sur Bali, absolument de tout.
On te vendra un bouclier ou une représentation de pirogue sculptée de Papouasie, en provenance directe de l'atelier............. du village voisin 😛, idem pour les batiks...... Bref une production locale mais qui peut convenir cependant, le but du souvenir étant avant tout de faire plaisir.
Bref, si t'es pas trop regardante sur la qualité ou l'origine, tu y trouveras ton bonheur.

Hi everyone,
I’m looking for addresses for guesthouses or, even better, houseboats or rafting houses on the River Kwai, between Kanchanaburi and Sangkhlaburi, to spend a few weeks contemplating this beautiful river.
Thanks for your suggestions!

Hi there,
we’re currently in Mai Chau and tomorrow we’re hitting the road back to Hanoi to head up toward Bac Ha and Sapa.
We haven’t really had a set plan since we arrived—we’ve already done the Halong Bay on land and by sea.
I’ve got 2 free days before heading to Bac Ha and Sapa.
Any tips?
Thanks, and looking forward to hearing from you.
Hi fellow travelers,
First trip to Vietnam.
We’ll be arriving in Ho Chi Minh City during Tet.
Is it complicated to find accommodation and get around during this period?
Any tips would be welcome.
Thanks for your replies.
Silly question—backpack or hard-shell suitcase for the Sepilok, Kinabatangan, Tioman, KL trip?
I’m struggling to fit all my son’s and my stuff into the 70L backpack... and I’m thinking a suitcase would be easier, but I’m not sure if it’ll work for getting around.
Hi there,
I didn’t plan to return to Thailand this year, but my health conditions mean it’ll be the best place for me to stay between two trips to India. The tourism setup there is so well-organized that it’s the most "comfortable" country for a short visit. Thailand feels too sanitized for my taste, and there’s too much religion, Buddha, and the King, but it’s still the best option given how my health has been evolving. I’d considered two weeks in ThaTon for hiking, but I got too sick from the burn-offs during my trips to the mountains around Chiang Rai. So I’m not sure where to go this year. Definitely not the sea, touristy spots, or the mountains with burn-offs...
Hello.
In 1996, we crossed Vietnam from Saigon to Hanoi by motorbike—Minsk bikes we bought in Saigon. I haven’t been back since, and it seems like a lot has changed.
- We’re heading to the south (well, the north and center) with the family in July-August (3 people).
- Is the road network more developed now? Back then, there was only National Route 1 from south to north. I’m thinking of renting a car this time (no motorbike with the family—though in ’96, they had a Jawa sidecar for sale, and we hesitated… maybe it’s for the best).
- Is Halong Bay really something to avoid because of overtourism? Even back then, it was pretty crowded. Is there a less touristy alternative?
- We’ll be traveling from Hanoi down to Danang (the only city we didn’t stop in back in ’96). Even though it’s a bit overhyped in a Chinese-tourist kind of way (from what I’ve read), we’re only going for the beach—pure relaxation for 7 days. The beaches are stunning, and I know the South China Sea is warm like coffee.
- Then, we’ll visit Hoi An, where I stopped in ’96. It was already popular with backpackers back then, but no glowing boats or all the touristy fuss!
- After that, Hue, where I have great memories—it’s a beautiful city.
- And also the nature around Ninh Binh, followed by 2-3 days in Hanoi.
That’s the plan. I’d love to hear any tips to avoid mass tourism, and if anyone’s done this before:
- Is it possible to rent a car in Danang and drop it off in Hanoi?
Hey everyone,
I’m over in East Borneo in mid-July.
I’m struggling to wrap up the end of my itinerary, even though it’s pretty straightforward (long but simple).
Last year, we did Malaysia (KL and the mainland + around Kuching).
Day 1 – Arrive in Kota Kinabalu early, stroll around town and hit the must-sees.
Day 2 – Excursion to Tunku Abdul Rahman Park, snorkeling at 3 islands.
Day 3 – Hike around Mount Kinabalu without summiting (450 per person, no way).
Day 4 – Poring Hot Springs + evening flight to Sandakan.
Day 5-6-7 – Kinabatangan River (still looking for the right guide).
Day 8 – Sepilok for the orangutans, the Sun Bear Centre, and Rainforest Discovery Centre.
Day 9 – Selingan, turtle island.
Day 10 – Head to Semporna.
Day 11-12-13-14 – Sipadan, Mabul, Kapalai.
Day 15 – Bohey Dulang.
Day 16 to Day 25: I’M STUCK.
I looked into Danum Valley, but for 3 days/2 nights, they’re quoting 650 € per person—come on, that’s ridiculous.
I checked out a detour into Indonesia (still East Borneo), but I’m having trouble deciding what would be amazing.
I read about Sangalaki + Kakaban (2 islands, 1 base) / Mahakam Delta - Kutai (orangutans and river) / Sungai Boh (Dayak Kayan) – jungle & culture.
But honestly, I’m struggling to finalize this itinerary.
If we venture that way, we’d head back to KK from Balikpapan.
For a 4-month stay in Egypt, I had ENORMOUS problems. The regulations are very bureaucratic and extremely nitpicky there. For a 4-month stay in the Philippines, I was wondering if the procedures are just as complicated? I’m bringing my cell phone with an eSIM. Should I choose a plan from Canada for use in the Philippines, or should I get a plan only once I arrive? After 30 days, do I renew with the Canadian provider I chose before leaving, or do I switch to a local company? Do I need to register my phone with the authorities in the Philippines? (That was the case in Egypt.) For the 3rd and 4th months, will it be just as simple—renewing with a Canadian or local provider—or should I expect problems?
Hello,
I’ll be in Malaysia with my wife, mainly in Langkawi and Penang for Christmas and New Year’s at the end of 2026.
If you’ve had the experience—and since I’ve read (though it’s not very clear) that these two islands get quite crowded during this period—would you recommend booking accommodation well in advance, or is it easy to find something on the spot?
Hotels or Airbnb?
Do you have any great tips for accommodation or any practical info to share?
We’ll be staying 5 to 7 days on each island.
Thanks in advance for your replies
Hi there. To make the most of Lake Toba, is it better to find accommodation on the lake’s shores (which one?) or on Samosir Island? Thanks for your tips!
Hi there,
We’re heading to Vietnam as a family on July 8th for a little over 3 weeks (north and center). We’ve only booked the first 3 nights in Hanoi, and nothing else after that. We like to decide things on the spot and go with the flow, without rushing everywhere. But I’m still a bit unsure: when heading down to the center (Hue), is it better to book the overnight trains in advance? We don’t want to take any flights while we’re there—just use the overnight train for the long trips. But I’m worried we won’t get seats if we buy the tickets on the spot, say, 2 days before. What do the experts here think? And which website can we use to book the tickets? Thanks in advance for your tips!
Hi everyone!
I’m heading back to Thailand in July 2026 with a stopover in Cambodia to visit the Angkor site.
After Angkor, I’ve booked a stay on Ko Chang island. Does anyone know if there are direct transport options from Cambodia to Ko Chang without having to go back through Bangkok? That would be amazing!!
I think there are, but I’d need more details!!
I went to Thailand in February 2025 and don’t remember having to apply for a visa—is that still the case now? And for Cambodia too?
Thanks so much!!!

I’d love to get some feedback on our itinerary—it’s probably pretty basic! This is our second trip to Asia and our first to Indonesia. We have three kids aged 20, 18, and 12. We land in Jakarta at 4 PM, spend 3 nights/2 days there, then take the train to Yogyakarta for 3 nights/2 days, followed by the train to Surabaya for 2 nights/1 day, then the train to Bromo for 1 day/1 night, a private driver to Ijen for 2 nights/2 days, then on to Bali (Ubud) for 4 nights/3 days, followed by Gili Air for 3 nights/2 days, Senggigi (Lombok) for 2 nights, and finally 5 nights in Kuta. I’m considering cutting the 2 nights in Senggigi to just keep Kuta and extend it to 7 nights. In Lombok, I’m not sure how to get around since I’m not comfortable with scooters... Your thoughts on all of this, and any advice, are more than welcome—don’t hesitate!
For those wondering why cities like Jakarta and Surabaya: we don’t often get the chance to visit big Asian cities, so we wanted to include that discovery in our trip. The trains between Jakarta and Yogyakarta, Surabaya and Probolinggo are booked. The return flight from Lombok to Jakarta is also set. Accommodations are booked but flexible (same for the trains).
Hi,
After our trip to China, we want to spend a week in the Philippines for some beach time and snorkeling.
We're looking for the best spot to settle in—nice beaches, great marine life, and short transfer times.
Thanks for your suggestions!
Does anyone know of a private transfer or taxi company that organizes transfers from the Sukhothai area to Chiang Mai?
Our routes are Sukhothai-Lampang, Lampang-Chom Thong, and Chom Thong-Chiang Mai.
My searches on Google Maps, 12Go, and others haven’t turned up much...
For our Bangkok-Sukhothai trips, I use a company I’ve already tried, but they don’t have a fleet available from Sukhothai and have to go through third-party companies—which, understandably, take their commission. This nearly doubles the prices...
There are four of us, and we’re not traveling light, so a minibus isn’t an option. ;-)
Hello,
While traveling in Thailand, I’m looking for a Buddhist kumlai reed bracelet.
Does anyone know where I can find one?
In Bangkok, I visited a few temples but didn’t see any in the nearby shops.
If you have any ideas, I’d love to hear them! Have a great day! :-)
My trip’s coming up, and I’m having a bit of trouble with three bus/minivan routes. Usually, I find everything at this time of year, but this time—yikes!
Sandakan → Sepilok:
No app for this one—you just hop on bus #14 at the local terminal (pay cash on board). But where do I catch it, and where’s the stop??
Sandakan → Semporna:
From what I’ve heard, it’s the Sida Express company (great name, right? 😄).
Can’t book online, but apparently, you *have* to because there’s only one bus at 8 AM.
Where do I board, and where does it drop me off?
Semporna → Tawau:
Found this via AI—is it legit?
No online booking, as far as I can tell.
Minivans leave from a stop in the Jalan Hospital area, near the Milimewa supermarket, supposedly????
And when you arrive, does it drop you at **Sabindo Square** in Tawau?????
Hi there,
we’ll be in Mai Chau in June and we’re thinking of heading to Sapa, but first spending a few days in Bac Ha to do some hiking and explore the area.
Is this a good idea for those who’ve been there?
How do you get there?
Thanks for your feedback.
Looking forward to hearing from you.
Cédric.
Hi everyone. As I’m planning my trip for next winter, I’m looking for hotel suggestions in Camotes, Bantayan, Malapascua, Bohol, and Siquijor. The ones I had in mind seem to be fully booked (unless it’s too early?). For those familiar with the area, is it easy to find accommodations on the spot in January/February? I’m specifically looking for hotels with a pool, beachfront, air conditioning, and easy scooter rental nearby. Thanks for your tips!
Hi there,
I’m planning an itinerary and would love some feedback on whether it’s doable and if the number of days per destination is enough—or too much. I was also debating whether to add an extra night on an island or spend an extra night in Kampot to visit Kep or Battambang.
March 23: Arrival in Phnom Penh in the morning
March 24: Phnom Penh
March 25: Phnom Penh
March 26: Depart for Kampot
March 27: Kampot
March 28: Depart for Battambang

Hi there,
Yesterday in the Thailand section, 100% of the new threads were just about beach destinations 😕...
So here’s the counterattack in the form of this photo thread, dedicated solely to the countryside: the locals, their livestock, fields, farms, rice paddies, small rivers, and agricultural machinery. If you’ve got any pictures that fit these categories, feel free to add them!
Comments welcome.
For each photo, I’ll (or you can) indicate the area where it was taken.
Hope you're all doing well! It's been a while since I last traveled, but I'm finally heading out again soon!
For those familiar with SOUTHEAST ASIA, I'm planning to leave in mid-June (with the trip ending at the latest in November), and I don’t have a precise idea of exact places or itineraries yet. The thing is, this period is usually the rainy season...
Any advice? I was thinking of Malaysia or Indonesia, like Sulawesi, for example (all countries and islands in Southeast Asia interest me except Bali).
Any recommendations? I’m doing my research online, but if anyone here has the time and knowledge, I’d love to hear from you.
My partner and I are planning a trip to Indonesia in September-October 2026. It’ll be our first time in Asia, and we’re thinking of hitting the classic spots in East Java and Bali, then wrapping up with a cruise around Komodo for some snorkeling/diving.

10/10: Flight SIN-YQB
Hi everyone,
My girlfriend and I booked our tickets with Saudia Airlines for a trip to Thailand this summer, from July 5th to August 3rd. Given the geopolitical situation in the Middle East, we’re keeping a close eye on the news.
I was wondering if anyone here is in the same situation as us?
• Have you heard anything about possible mass cancellations or if the airline is still maintaining its routes to Asia?
• Are there any travelers who’ve recently returned who could tell us if air corridors have been changed (longer flight times)?
The idea is to know what to expect so we can prepare as best as possible. Thanks for your replies! !
Thanks for all your contributions on the forum—they’ve really helped me plan my trip. There are four of us friends heading to Sulawesi for 20 days. Based on all your advice, I’ve put together the following itinerary:
July 30: Makassar – sightseeing
July 31: Makassar – sightseeing + overnight bus to Rantepao
August 1–7: Tana Toraja with a guide
August 7: Tana Toraja to Tentena + visit Tentena
August 8: Early departure with a private driver to Ampana, then ferry to the Togian Islands
August 9–15: Togian Islands (2 different resorts)
August 15: Depart Togian Islands for Luwuk
August 16: Flight Luwuk to Makassar
August 17: Rammang Rammang
August 18: Stroll in Makassar, then return home
Overall, what do you think?
I also have a question about the connection between Tentena and the Togian Islands: Is it doable to leave early in the morning as planned and still be sure not to miss the ferry?
Hi everyone,
I’m currently working on a 30-day itinerary for May/June 2027.
10 days in eastern Java (Malang, Bromo, waterfalls, Meru Beriti Park, Banyuwangi, and Ijen), a short transit in Ubud for a few days, then Flores before heading back to Jakarta.
We’ll spend 15 days in Flores (the classic route: Moni, Bajawa, Riung, Ruteng, ending in Labuan Bajo).
I’d love some firsthand feedback on flights to Maumere or Ende from Bali Denpasar. I know there are no direct routes and that you have to connect through Labuan Bajo or Timor (I think), which isn’t an issue in itself.
But I’ve read here and there that flights to these destinations can be delayed—or worse, canceled—and that it’s better to fly in and out of Labuan Bajo, which isn’t exactly ideal...
Thanks for any tips or experiences you can share!
