Exclusive Private Experience: 5 Secret Gili Islands

The private secret Gilis tour was an excellent choice for our family of five, staying in Kuta. Our guide, Wawan, was wonderful! He was prompt, a good driver, and communicative. He let us tailor the trip to what the family was feeling as the trip progressed. The boat ride was beautiful, although choppy at times, but the captain did his best to avoid the biggest waves. He was also fantastic in being our snorkeling guide and filming the marine life and us, during our snorkeling adventures! It was a very welcomed and unexpected surprise! Lunch was well organized and pretty filling. All the spots were scenic, although we chose to skip one as it was a little crowded and didn't think we'd see much different underwater. Instead, we ended up going to a local village where the women handcrafted fabric. We got a goddesses tour by one of the village women and learned a lot about the culture and craft. It was a fabulous trip and highly recommended adventure!

We contacted the agency by email and booked three excursions departing from Lombok (Tetebatu, pink beach, and 5 secret gilis). We spent three superb days with our guide Nining and his apprentice Yandenson. They are punctual, attentive, and always smiling 😃. We had a very good time and will keep very fond memories.

We had a wonderful day exploring the three Secret Gilis. Our guide was very friendly, reliable, and well organized throughout the whole trip. The snorkeling was beautiful, with clear water and a lovely coral reef to explore. Lunch was local, fresh, and very tasty, which made the experience even more authentic.

A fantastic day organized impeccably. Wonderful snorkeling on dream islands. A special thanks to our guide Ary, our driver, and our captain.

very nice experience, very professional company, friendly staff, awesome tour guide,great food & snorkeling

It was an amazing local experience! The tour guides, Yana and Afril, and the driver Mami, were super helpful, funny and we had also nice chat about indonesian culture. Experience super recommended!

A great day out at the three ‘secret’ Gilis! We got to take our time, the beaches were lovely (particularly teeny tiny Kedis where I bought the world’s biggest coconut) and our guide, driver and captain were amazing!

It was a great excursion to a total of 5 islands with 3 stops for snorkeling. The pickup at our hotel went smoothly and our driver Iyan brought us safely to the harbor. Our guide Nining accompanied us the entire day - with her funny and open manner, she told us a lot about Lombok and life on the island. She also got along great with our children (15 & 11 years old). At the harbor, our skipper Yudi welcomed us. He was also very likable and not only took us from island to island, but also accompanied/guided us during the snorkeling trips. In addition, he took tons of great photos and videos (you can rent a GoPro cheaply at the harbor). The highlight was, of course, a large sea turtle that Yudi discovered. At noon, there was a simple but good meal on one of the islands. Overall a wonderful excursion with a great team, Nining, Yudi, and Iyan. I would definitely recommend this private tour to avoid the hustle and bustle of a large group. Furthermore, the Secret Gilis are actually not yet flooded with tourists, and the fish and corals are truly worth seeing. Those were certainly some of the most beautiful and intact corals I have ever seen.

Fun trip to the Secret Gilis with Yana, Yensen, and Mamiq! Besides of the amazing locations with great underwater life, I especially loved their easy going and laid back attitude!
