About this tour

All entrance fees and air-conditioned transport are covered; pack swimmers to cool off under the falls.

What to expect
Expect a full day of walking between three natural attractions, with some uneven terrain and river crossings to reach the waterfalls. The hikes are moderate—nothing extreme—but do involve scrambling over rocks and wading through shallow water. Sekumpul, reached via a descent through jungle, rewards you with powerful white water and a natural pool deep enough for swimming. Banyumala offers a quieter alternative with two falls side by side. Mid-afternoon brings you to Jatiluwih's expansive emerald slopes, best photographed from dedicated viewpoints. The monkey forest rounds out the day; stay alert and keep bags zipped. Morning starts early (8 am) to beat crowds and heat.
Good to know

The tour isn't suitable if you have back problems, are pregnant, or have cardiovascular concerns. Moderate fitness essential. Roads are paved but winding; travel sickness tablets advisable.
