Some trekking companies require a deposit for Mount Rinjani tours, but with us you do not need to pay a traditional deposit for the trek itself. Instead, the only payment required in advance is for the national park permits, which cost 13 USD per person per day. These permits are limited and often sell out quickly, especially during the busy months of July, August, and September. Paying the permit fee early allows us to secure your spot on the mountain before the daily quota fills. This system protects you from arriving in Lombok only to discover that all permits are gone for your preferred dates.
Many other companies use deposits as a way to guarantee participation and lock in a booking. Deposits may range from small amounts to a significant percentage of the total trek cost. While this approach is common, it can be inconvenient for travelers who prefer flexibility. Our method avoids these complications by focusing only on what is truly required by the national park. As long as the permit fee is paid, we reserve your trekking date, arrange your guide and porters, and prepare your logistics.
This approach keeps the booking process simple, affordable, and traveler friendly. You only pay the permit fee upfront, and the remaining trek cost is paid when you arrive. It also means you can adjust your travel plans more easily without worrying about losing large deposits. The permit payment is the key step, and securing it early ensures you have a confirmed entry into Mount Rinjani.
