Your friendly driver will pick you up from your hotel at the scheduled time for a 6–8 hour tour, including travel between destinations. The journey begins at Aik Berik Rice Terrace, where you’ll wander through Lombok’s lush, terraced landscapes. Each step along the winding paths reveals the harmony between people and nature, with generations of farmers shaping the land into cascading layers of vibrant green, framed by the island’s majestic mountains.
Get ready to be captivated as you journey into the lush heart of Lombok’s rainforest to uncover the enchanting Benang Kelambu Waterfall. Its name, meaning “Thread-like Waterfall,” reflects the delicate beauty of its flow. Gracefully streaming down a steep cliff, the water creates a fine mist that drifts like a shimmering veil, immersing you in an atmosphere of peace and serenity.
As you journey onward, a stop at the Monkey Forest offers a magical encounter with Lombok’s mischievous yet endearing residents. Here, playful long-tailed macaques roam freely, their boundless curiosity and lively antics bringing the forest to life.

We loved our tour of Lombok with guide Misal. He was friendly, knowledgeable, and spoke excellent English. Misal brought some sunflower seeds so we could feed the monkeys - very fun! We rode scooters to the waterfalls. There were a fair number of stairs but it was worth it - they were among the prettiest waterfalls I have ever seen. After the waterfalls we had a snack and I got to try Lombok coffee. I told Misal I wanted to try durian, so he found a good roadside stand where we tried durian and a couple other types of Lombok fruits. Next we stopped at a local village and got a demonstration of their weaving and also were able to go into one of the rice paddies. We had an amazing day in Lombok - highly recommend this tour and guide Misal!
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re delighted to hear you had such an amazing day exploring Lombok with Misal. From feeding monkeys and riding scooters to stunning waterfalls, tasting local coffee, durian, and learning about weaving, it sounds like a truly memorable experience. We really appreciate your recommendation and hope to welcome you back to Lombok again in the future!
Hasyim was very nice and explained me a lot of things about Indonesians lifestyle and culture. He also stopped where I wanted. I recommend :).
Thank you so much for your kind review! We’re happy to hear that Hasyim made your experience enjoyable and shared insights into Indonesian lifestyle and culture. We truly appreciate your recommendation and hope to welcome you again soon 😊
Lombok Vacation contacted me a few days before our port arrival and we continued our WhatsApp messaging up to the morning of pickup at the cruise terminal, making the connection with our guide secure and easy. Habib was our driver and host for the day, speaking perfect and understandable English. He treated us like family and even invited us to his home to meet his father, wife and son for a friendly tea and coffee party. Since the rain came and went throughout the day, Habib adjusted the destinations accordingly. All went well from site to site traveling in his air conditioned van down local roads from village to village offering us a completely satisfying Lombok day we will never forget.
Thank you so much for your wonderful review and for choosing Lombok Vacation. We’re delighted to hear that our pre-arrival communication made your pickup smooth and reassuring. It truly means a lot to us that Habib made you feel like family and shared such a personal and authentic Lombok experience with you. We’re glad he could adjust the itinerary with the changing weather and still create a memorable day traveling through local villages in comfort. Your kind words inspire our team, and we’re honored to have been part of a Lombok day you will never forget. We hope to welcome you back again in the future!
We had a great day discovering Lombok. Much less crowded than Bali and way closer to the traditions and roots of Lombok. We got lucky enough to test harvesting rice by hand with locals, and taste fresh coconut from the tree! Great with kids too.
Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful experience! We’re delighted to hear you enjoyed discovering the authentic traditions of Lombok and had the chance to join in rice harvesting and taste fresh coconut straight from the tree. It’s great to know the kids also had fun—looking forward to welcoming you again for more adventures!
Lombok Island is a gem. It’s a place rich in tradition, less traffic & not so crowded. We enjoyed our private trip with our gentle & friendly tour guide Eka. We hiked to the waterfalls, had a sip of their famous Lombok Coffee at the cafe overlooking the waterfalls, had a delicious & authentic lunch with fresh coconut juice at the local resto, stopped at the traditional village for a cloth weaving demo, etc.. Eka also bought us some sweet rambutan fruits for snacks. We wished we had more time to explore this area. I highly recommend this tour esp. with Eka.
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We're so glad to hear that you enjoyed exploring the beautiful Lombok Island with Eka. It sounds like you had an unforgettable experience, from the waterfalls to the traditional village and the delicious local food. We're especially happy that Eka made your trip even more special with his thoughtful touches, like bringing you rambutan fruits! We hope you get the chance to return soon and explore even more of this hidden gem. Thanks again for recommending us, and we hope to welcome you back on another adventure!
You really see both sides of Lombok, from the natural beauty of the countryside and rice terraces to the realities of village life. The waterfalls are stunning but a very strenuous walk, but we'll worth it! The rice terraces exceeded expectations, acres and acres of them being farmed in the same way for centuries. A great way to see the natural beauty of Lombok
Dear Clare, Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re thrilled you had such a memorable experience with us. Our team works hard to provide exceptional service, and it’s rewarding to know we made your visit special. We look forward to welcoming you back soon and continuing to exceed your expectations. Safe travels, and see you next time! Warm Regards, Dananjaya
At 09.30 sharp we were picked up from our hotel by Sami. During the ride he told a lot about life on Lombok. At the rice terraces, all the time was taken to look at everything and we even got to help with the cutting of the rice plants and the “repulsion” of the rice grains. Then to Geopark Rinjani, where we visited two beautiful waterfalls, back on a scooter there and returned , saw monkeys and enjoyed a delicious meal (nasi goreng). Sami is a fun, charismatic guide who understands exactly what you like or don't like to do, so you have a great day.
Very interesting and informative tour. My guide was friendly and helpful and very knowledgeable. Recommended!
The tour was one of the most amazing days I've spent in Indonesia. It was well organised, also spontenous as I'd wish it to be. We decided tasting fruits alongside the way or going for a lombok coffee at the rice fields. The driver and the guide were both super helpful and fun to hang around with. Oh, and the monkey stop? Total blast. I bet kids would go nuts for it too. The roads inbetween stops are also so beautiful with palm trees and happy waving kids. I left for Osaka after the tour, and when I was at the airport I felt genuinely saddened I was leaving this lovely country behind. Will come back to Lombok and other parts of Indonesia!

I had a great day, Julian and the other guide put in a lot of effort. I was even driven to the waterfall by scooter. At the end we also visited a mosque and enjoyed the view over Lombok from a viewing point. Your care cannot be taken for granted, thank you! The only negative is that it is very expensive for one person. Vanessa
Thank you for entrusting our company as part of your holiday in Lombok. Have a great day ! See you on your trip next time in Lombok or Bali !
