With a laid-back atmosphere and great value, it suits couples, solo travellers, and nature adventurers.

How is Lombok different from Bali?+
Lombok is quieter, more pristine, and cheaper, focused on beaches and adventure, while Bali is livelier with more amenities.
How do I get to the Gili Islands from Lombok?+
Take a fast boat or public ferry from Bangsal harbour in the northwest — about 15–45 minutes.
How should I prepare for the Rinjani trek?+
You should have a guide and book a tour in advance; it takes 2–3 days, and you need to be physically fit because the route is steep.
