Trip Informations
Why you’ll love this trip
Stay on the often-overlooked east coast of Lombok with some time spent in Labuan Pandan, taking a snorkelling trip and enjoying a secluded island lunch and a seafood barbecue dinner.
Enjoy a Sasak dinner and performance at Tetebatu Local Community Center – be introduced to traditional Gamelan music and feast on dishes prepared by the local community in Tetebatu village.
Explore Masbagik – this Sasak village on East side of Lombok is known for its high-quality pottery products that are handmade mostly by the local women.
Walk through rice fields and see how the region's farmers have tended the land for centuries, still using traditional water buffalo ploughs. Then, join in and practice how to plant rice in the traditional way!
Relax on the shores of Gili Air, swimming, snorkelling, eating and repeating – the Gili Islands may just be some of the most stunning stretches of sand you’ve ever seen.
Is this trip right for you?
Part of travelling with Tuuur means respecting local cultures and sensibilities. That way you get the most out of your interactions with local people and environments. Lombok is more conservative than Bali, so it's best to dress conservatively while you're there, particularly in smaller towns and during village walks.
Walking in the village of Tetebatu is on relatively flat ground, but the terrain can be steep and, at times, slippery or muddy.
The snorkelling trip off the east coast of Lombok is a great chance to witness the sealife, but bear in mind you'll need to be a confident swimmer to partake in this activity.
Our accommodation on the east coast of Lombok is remote, and away from the main town. Our simple bungalows and beachside location allow a great chance to unwind and enjoy the slow pace in this slice of paradise.
This trip is part of a longer itinerary. You might be joining travellers who have already spent some time together. If you have more time to explore, you might like to check out our Bali & Lombok Adventure (TISBC).
Itinerary
Visit one of Indonesia's vibrant tropical playgrounds
Get the lowdown on Bali’s beautiful neighbour on an eight-day tropical adventure in Lombok. Spend time in rural communities, meet lots of locals and discover the fascinating Sasak culture through their food, music, home industry and local crafts. From the laidback vibes of Labuan Pandan and the idyllic Gili, you’ll be lazing beachside in no time on one of Indonesia’s most pristine islands. With all the organising taken care of, just sit back and relax on the crystal-clear waters of the Bali Sea, feast on the array of fresh seafood and enjoy the friendliness of the locals as they welcome you to their slice of paradise.

Super trip, Lombok is a bit more off-the-beaten track than Bali and very beautiful. Our guide Rona was infectiously enthusiastic and very helpful.

The Bali and Lombok adventure was a very interesting trip. The hotels were all very good and I liked the snorkeling the best. Swimming with turtles in Gili Air was the highlight for me. Komang in Bali and Rona in Lombok were very good and fun leaders.

Exploring Lombok was a great trip - some beautiful scenery, far less tourists than Bali and lovely people. The snorkelling was particularly great. If heading to Indonesia, it's an excellent itinerary to add to some relaxing time in Bali.
