Arrival in Senggigi
Arrive in Sengiggi and take an optional transfer to your hotel here. Unwind in your delightful hotel situated next to the beach and catch your first island sunset tonight to top it off.
Visit Lingsar and Travel to Tetebatu
On the way to Tetebatu, you’ll visit Lingsar. Lingsar is the saint of two religions: Wetu Telu (a mixture of adat and elements from Islam) and Balinese Hinduism. Continue to the gardens of Narmada water park. This complex was built in 1805 by the King of Mataram. Here you’ll find a replica of the Gunung Rinjani and the Crater Lake Segara Anak with a temple for offerings that the King used when he became too old to climb the Rinjani-volcano.
In the late afternoon, you’ll arrive in Tetebatu. Your hotel is beautiful and located amidst vegetable gardens and tobaccos plantations at the foot of Mount Rinjani.
Explore Traditional Lombok
Today is all about exploring traditional Ombok! Accompanied by a local guide you will take a hike through local villages, rice paddies, bamboo forests and to one of the beautiful waterfalls while trying to spot a local black monkey in the trees along the way. After your hike you will visit Pringgasela, a weaving village and enjoy a real “Sasak” meal. Then, drive to Masbagik, a village where people make pottery by traditional methods.
Beautiful Drive to Senaru and Guided Hike
