✨ Before You Go
However you like to travel, whether fast and efficient over a long weekend or slower and more immersive over four days, Lombok rewards a bit of planning. Prices shift with the season, group size, and how private you want the experience to be, so the ranges in this guide are a starting point, not a final quote.
If you'd rather skip the spreadsheet and just tell us what you're after, our team can put together a custom itinerary and an accurate price the same day, with no drama and no logistics headache on your end.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
How much does a trip to Lombok cost in 2026?
As a starting range: around Rp 1,800,000–3,000,000 per person for a 3D2N private group tour, and Rp 2,500,000–4,500,000 per person for 4D3N. Final pricing depends on group size, hotel class, season, and whether you go fully private.
When is the best time to visit Lombok?
The dry season, roughly April to October, is generally the most comfortable, with calmer seas for island hopping and more predictable weather. Outside that window is still possible, just with a higher chance of rain, especially at sea.
Should I book the 3D2N or 4D3N package?
3D2N works well if you only have a short break and want to hit the highlights efficiently. 4D3N gives you a slower pace and covers more ground, which is better if you want to combine the south coast, the Gilis, and Sembalun without feeling rushed.
Do I really need a local travel agent for Lombok?
It's strongly recommended. Roads, boat schedules, and access to some of the more remote spots on this list are much easier to navigate with a local team handling transport and logistics for you.
Is Lombok safe and suitable for families?
Yes. Lombok is generally very friendly for families, with good infrastructure around the main tourist areas and plenty of destinations that work well for both kids and grandparents.
Is Lombok a good choice for a honeymoon?
Yes. Many of the destinations on this list, especially the quieter Gili islands and Pink Beach, are romantic and private enough for couples looking for a honeymoon that isn't overcrowded.
Which places on this list should I not skip?
If your time is limited, prioritize Bukit Merese, Tanjung Aan Beach, the three Gili islands (Trawangan, Air, Meno), Tiu Kelep Waterfall, and Sade Village for a taste of Sasak culture.
Is there ATM access on the Gili islands?
Gili Trawangan and Gili Air both have ATMs, but access on Gili Meno is limited. It's a good idea to bring some cash with you regardless of which island you're visiting.
