Many thanks to Adi for this 3D2N trek!

We spent three days in an incredible setting, enjoying the lake, the hot springs, and the summit of the volcano.

Adi is a wonderful, caring guide who instills a friendly atmosphere and adapts to all levels to help you stay strong. I highly recommend him!!

Thanks also to the porters for all their work.

Please remember to bring warm clothes for the evening and good shoes, as the trails are difficult.

We had a great 3D2N tour with the our guide Adi and our 2 porters! They took really good care of us! We had wonderful meals.

Had an amazing time!! Everything was super well organized. The lead guide made sure all questions were answered beforehand and we were well prepared. The trek was hard but so worth it, amazing views. Aji, our guide, made sure everything was well taken care of and that we had the best time. Made the experience so much better. Also very friendly porters (Ronnie) who made sure we had plenty of food and drinks. Would highly recommend this company, also for solo travelers!!!

Amazing adventure

Thank you so much specially to Hill and our guide Aji ❤️

Love you guys I will remember the Rinjani all my life !

What an experience!!! It was the most challenging thing we have done both physically and mentally but we did it! We couldn’t have done it with our incredible guide Adi who was an absolute joy from the first moment meeting him. Adi was welcoming, kind, funny, he was able to answer all our questions, held great knowledge of the mountain as worked it for many years. Adis English was great and we felt, safe, supported and cared for the entire journey. Our amazing porters Diwan and Davin were just insane, the way they can move up the mountain so fast in the heat with that weight! The food was great and they were behind the scenes making sure all our comforts were meet. We would truly encourage anyone doing Mt Rinjani to tip both the porters and your guide. I don’t think I have seen this level of dedication, strength and willingness in any job and these boys do this day in day out! We couldn’t recommend Adi enough, you will be in good hands!

Rinjani is famous so must be the Lombok Indonesia trek.

We booked before our trip this trek and already get the feeling that’s the organisation was perfectly set : the communication was perfect, the explanations clear.

When we arrived at the port, everything was set. We put our brain off, just following the flow so well organised.

2 hours later, we arrived at the rental shop, met hill and get all the equipments we need. I can already say that you will need everything they do recommend (gloves, raincoat, walking stick) and that they are of very good quality.

We went to our accomodation, the room was clean and get explanations from Hill about the trek. Once again everything was clear, hill was patient, kind, and make us feel like he was really carefully about us to feel happy and confortable.

How can we start better ?

The next morning we met our team : ariadi, our guide, our two porters Door and Adim.

If I have any advice, ask for them to guide you.

Our experience was fantastic and without any doubt, thanks to their professionalism and company. They are kind, attentive, always smiling, they care about you, your well being. They are really good cooker, everything we had was delicious (by the way, the portion was big for us, so to avoid any waste, we ask them to have smaller quantity).

at the end, we felt that we made some friends more than being customer anymore. Making the goodbye harder than never.

Ask for Ariadi to have a wonderfull journey and trust the experience of hill, as an ancient guide and porter, for sure you can trust them 😉

Thank you very much to Adi for this 3D2N trek!

Adi is a super friendly guide who builds usability, and adapts to all levels to help you hold on. I recommend eyes closed!!

Be careful, think about taking warm clothes for the evening and good shoes because the trails are difficult

This is my second trip with Lombok-Indonesia, and I have nothing but positive things to say about this company.

First, safety. In light of recent events on Rinjai, people are understandably worried about safety. This company is not associated with this incident. What I can say is that while the hike is challenging, the guides make sure to take every safety precaution possible. They are always in front/behind the group, within speaking and line of sight of all guests, and are trained to check for any potential signs of danger. There were dozens of occasions where the guides proactively warned me about any potential hazards, and they were constantly checking on our wellbeing. They also stock first aid and rescue supplies on every trip.

Second, the booking process is seamless and straightforward. You select your dates and packages and make a modest deposit to secure the permit from the Indonesian government. That’s all you need to secure your trekking dates.

Third, the logistics process. One of the managers (Hill/Hamdi) reach out to you well ahead of your Lombok trip with the itinerary, equipment to bring, and collect information to apply for your permits. It’s a very easy process, and they are quick to respond to any inquiries.

Fourth, the homestay facilities are very good with an amazing infinity pool and waterfall view right outside of each private villa.

Fifth, the trekking itself. Our guides Toni and Ariadi were both outstanding. They immediately made us feel like we were family. They had plenty of stories, jokes, and interesting facts to make the trekking more enjoyable. The guides paid special attention to those in our group who thought they couldn’t reach the summit. We all made it in the end. The food/facilities provided by the porters during the trek were above standard for Mt. Rinjani based on my observations.

If you’re adventerous, love the outdoors, and are willing to work some exercise into your holiday, book Lombok-Indonesia without hesitation.

Completed the three day hike with the guys.

Picked up from the port, stayed in the homestay the night before and dropped at a destination of my choosing after completing the trek. Our guide Tony was great. He knows the area like the back of his hand and speaks great English. He told us all about the area and made sure we were always safe and well looked after. The food was great and there was no shortage of water. The Porters were amazing too and managed to get us the best places to camp each night.Thanks guys!
