Begin your journey with a scenic drive to the cool highlands of Sembalun, a peaceful valley nestled at the foothills of Mount Rinjani. Surrounded by lush farms and mountain air, spend your first night here, allowing time to relax and absorb the tranquil atmosphere of rural Lombok.
As the sun rises over the valley, start your day with breakfast followed by a visit to a local strawberry plantation where you can pick fresh strawberries straight from the fields. Continue to the iconic Bukit Selong, offering breathtaking panoramic views of colorful rice terraces that stretch across the valley like a natural mosaic. Stop at Kedai Sawah for a charming moment to enjoy coffee while overlooking the scenic landscape.
From here, transition into Lombok’s deep Islamic roots with a visit to the historic village of Bayan. Explore the ancient mosque, one of the oldest Islamic sites on the island, and visit Bale Adat Bayan to learn about traditional Sasak culture. A hands-on experience of Lombok weaving introduces you to the artistry behind the island’s famous handwoven textiles.
Continuing north, arrive in Senaru for lunch, surrounded by tropical forest views. Then, head to the majestic waterfalls of Sendang Gila Waterfall and Tiu Kelep Waterfall. Feel the refreshing mist and listen to the roar of cascading water as you immerse yourself in nature’s hidden paradise.
In the afternoon, head to Bangsal Harbor, where a private speedboat awaits to take you across crystal-clear waters to Gili Air. This charming island offers a peaceful escape with no motorized vehicles, only bicycles and horse carts. Check into your hotel and unwind by the beach as the sun sets over the horizon. Overnight stay in Gili Air.
The next morning begins with a relaxing breakfast before setting out for a snorkeling adventure. Explore vibrant coral reefs and swim among tropical fish, with a highlight stop at the famous underwater statues near Gili Meno—a magical and serene underwater art installation.
After returning to your hotel and checking out, a private speedboat transfers you back to Bangsal. From there, a comfortable private vehicle takes you to Mataram. Enjoy shopping for local souvenirs and halal products before visiting the magnificent Islamic Center Mosque, the largest and most beautiful mosque in Lombok and West Nusa Tenggara. Its grand architecture and peaceful ambiance provide a meaningful spiritual closing to your journey.
A delightful lunch at a renowned local halal restaurant completes your experience before your transfer to Lombok International Airport or your hotel in Kuta Lombok.
