Travel out of bustling Jakarta for a trip to uncover the majestic landscape of the Indonesian countryside. Walk the crater's edge around the boiling water at Mt. Tangkuban Perahu, and then go for a dip in the healing waters of the Sari Ater Hot Springs.
Your day begins with convenient pickup in Jakarta from your private guide. From here, head southeast into the country until you reach Mt. Tangkuban Perahu. Located roughly 18 miles (30 km) north of the city of Bandung, this active volcano is a sight you don't want to miss. Hike up to the crater, where you can stroll around the edge to feel the hot steam wafting off the boiling mud below. Along the way, listen as your guide shares the history of the mountain, which has erupted nearly 20 times in the last 200 years.
Next, you head to the nearby Sari Ater Hot Springs, where the mineral-rich, 105-degree Fahrenheit (41 C) water is said to provide healing benefits to a variety of skin issues and body aches. Go for a full soak in the steaming water, or simply roll up your pants for a quick wade.
Your tour concludes with lunch in lively Bandung, an urban city nestled among rolling green hills, tea plantations, and volcanic peaks. Follow your guide into 1 of 3 distinct districts boasting popular eateries for a traditional meal before making the drive back to Jakarta.
