“Fantastic, great way to meet people if traveling alone. Well organized and friendly staff, definitely recommend this activity 🤗”
Spend about 8.5 hours exploring all three Gili Islands from Lombok with an English-speaking guide and a small group of up to nine. Expect clear-water snorkeling, turtles, Gili Meno’s underwater statues, lunch on Gili Trawangan, and a final hilltop viewpoint.
“Rido Romance is the coolest guide you’re gonna get in Lombok. Having more than a decade of experience in Lombok’s tour guide industry, he sure knows all the spots to make your trip a dream. As a bonus, he has a beautiful voice to make long travel times much more entertaining. Highly recommended!”
Travel by private speedboat from Teluk Nara Harbor to Gili Trawangan, Gili Air, or Gili Meno in roughly 7 to 10 minutes. The boat carries up to seven people, operates from 6:00 AM to 10:00 PM, and offers a quiet alternative to crowded ferry travel. Ramadana handles communication and arrangements.
“We travelled from Gili T to Lombok. The communication was great leading up to the trip. The power boat was a much better experience than the larger fast boat. Our friend from Gili T spoke with the boat captain and arranged for us to be picked up from the beach. Much easier than battling the crowd on the harbour.”
Set out from Gili Air, Gili Meno, Gili Trawangan, or Lombok with guides such as Abdul Azis or Azis. You will snorkel at turtle sites, coral gardens, and underwater statues, with optional GoPro footage, hotel transfers, and a private boat.
“We had an amazing snorkeling adventure guided by Azis and his mate! From start to finish, they took excellent care of us, making sure we were comfortable and safe throughout the trip. Azis went out of his way to find the best snorkeling spots—away from the crowds—so we could fully enjoy the beauty of the ocean in peace. One of the highlights was seeing turtles up close, which was absolutely unforgettable. The whole experience lasted around 3 hours and was the perfect mix of excitement and relaxation. Highly recommend this tour for anyone looking for a personal and memorable snorkeling experience!”
By hull, by landing, by how long you want to be out.
