Trip Informations
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.
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).

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ An unforgettable experience with Intrepid – Discover Lombok I have never done an organised tour like this before, so I wasn’t quite sure what to expect, but I can honestly say it has been one of the best travel experiences I’ve ever had. Our trip leader, Ron, has been absolutely amazing. He is incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, helpful and genuinely passionate about Lombok and its people. He has made the whole experience so enjoyable and has gone above and beyond to make sure everyone has had an amazing time. We really couldn’t have wished for a better trip leader. Travelling with my partner, I was initially unsure about meeting a group of people I didn’t know, but that has turned out to be one of the best parts of the trip. Meeting new people, sharing experiences and making memories together has made the trip even more special. From exploring the incredible scenery and local villages to learning about the culture, trying new experiences and spending time with the local communities, this trip has given us a real taste of Lombok rather than just seeing it as tourists. I’ve absolutely loved every minute and, after this experience, I would definitely consider doing more Intrepid tours in the future. Thank you to Ron and the whole group for making our Discover Lombok adventure so memorable! 🌴❤️

Lombok is a hidden gem and should be on your radar. Yan or tour leader is fantastic, great knowledge, heart of gold and a joy to be with. Gili Air great place to finish the trip, kick back and soak up the chilled enviroment.

I’ve just finished the Lombok trip with Intrepid. My daughter and I had an amazing time. I can’t wait to get booked up again. So far I’ve done Vietnam, Bali and now Lombok with Intrepid. They are excellent and I can’t recommend them highly enough.
