About this tour

The route starts at Batukaru before crossing by ferry to East Java. Two days around Ijen provide repeated highland-forest birding, followed by a day in Alas Purwo National Park for lowland woodland species, hornbills, peafowl and pittas.

Back on Bali, two full days in Bali Barat National Park focus on Bali Myna and the park’s forest, savanna, mangrove and coastal birds. A final Bedugul session completes the altitudinal range before the airport transfer. The official package lists transport, ferry, shared lodging, meals, water, guiding and park fees as included.
