Overview
Take a trip to Lombok Island on your Indonesia Vacation
Lombok Island is located in the province of West Nusa Tenggara and is situated just east of the island of Bali, separated by the Lombok Strait, and west of the island of Sumbawa, separated by the Alas Strait. The provincial capital and largest city on the island are Mataram.
Dominated by the centrally-located stratovolcano of Mt. Rinjani, Indonesia’s second highest, Lombok Island features beautiful beaches, waterfalls, and surrounding islets. The highlands of Lombok are a mostly undeveloped forest, while the lowlands are highly cultivated, producing rice, soybeans, coffee, tobacco, cotton, coconuts, bananas, and various spices.
Though only 25 miles away from the island of Bali, Lombok Island is strongly influenced by the restrained and quiet nature of Sasak culture, giving the island a very different vibe compared to the tourism bustle of Bali.
Promoted as an ‘unspoiled Bali’, Lombok Island offers visitors the natural beauty of an untouched countryside as well as a glimpse into the traditional way of life by its island dwellers. Culturally and linguistically closely related to the Balinese, though not religiously, the majority of Sasak people practice the local Muslim faith and traditions.
Lombok Island has maintained its rich and enduring indigenous culture, having withstood the pressure of modernity. Though not as well-known as its neighbour to its west, tourism is starting to grow as more visitors seek the island’s Indonesian authenticity and relaxed way of life.

What do the experts say?
Offerings are placed everywhere, including sidewalks, entrances, and shrines. Never step on or disturb them.
Ubud is all about jungle, rice terraces, and spirituality—no beaches here. Munduk’s cooler climate and coffee plantations, meanwhile, offer a peaceful escape, while the Bali Swing remains a favourite for photos.
Bali isn’t just beautiful, it’s also deeply spiritual, generous, and rooted in community
Indonesia has more than 17,000 islands, with incredible natural beauty, from waterfalls, caves, and rice terraces to truly stunning beaches

She was the glue to combine the complete package and would highly recommend her services.Valued CustomerWe just came back from a wonderful trip to Portugal. From the time I contacted Goway until now, I have been more than satisfied with our experience. Our agent Michael put together a 8 day package with all the requirements we had asked for. The 8 day trip went so seamless & took all the stress off us travelling in Portugal. Michael not only listened to what we wanted, but he was so quick to respond to all of our calls, emails & concerns. The transfers, hotels & tours he arranged were the best. We would highly recommend Goway. I can hardly wait to book our next adventure with Goway. CathyMichael Keon from Goway Travel made our family trip to Greece memorable. Michael was a call or email away when planning our Greece trip and worked with us on our tight budget. Every detail was worked out for us before we got on the plane.
Shout out to Nico, one of our drivers in Mykonos and all the great expeditions we went on.
I highly recommend Goway Travel to plan your next vacation adventures.
Jacqueline G. Jacqueline GarrettI just returned from a wonderful trip to Sweden and Norway. I had the good fortune of working with Michael Keon who helped me plan and customize an interesting and balanced itinerary.
All of the logistics went well, flights, transfers, hotels in great locations, travel between destinations, fjord safaris, cruises and guided tours with knowledgeable guides to inform and make the experience even more memorable.
Michael was responsive to all of my questions and made it so easy to both prepare for and ultimately enjoy the trip.
Looking forward to planning the next one!GailJust got back from a fabulous safari holiday in Tanzania. The trip was amazing! Exceeded my expectations. The people, the local team at Sense of Africa, the food, the accommodations (Karibu camps: Elephant Springs+Lion’s Paw and Sametu), the safari from the sky (hot air balloon)… I can keep going. Perfect way to celebrate my 50th bday.
Thanks again to Alice Teramoto and Goway for making this happen! Truly a trip of a lifetimeKARISSA CARRASQUILLOI have had Melissa Moses plan our trips for us for quite a few years. She always finds interesting sights for us to see, the hotels are always beautiful and everything runs perfectly. Can't wait to get started on the next adventure. Andrea JonesJust returned from a two week trip to Prague, Vienna and Budapest booked by Michael Keon at Goway
This was our second trip booked with Michael
Hotels were all excellent, in great locations, transfers to and from airports went without a hitch and train travel was exactly as planned.
As we worked through all the details of planning the trip, he responded to lib questions promptly, making finalizing the trip very easy
I would highly recommend him as a travel agent, and we will be using him again
Kevin BourkeKatie's knowledge and support were the primary reason the trip worked so well.
Everything went smoothly, and the vacation could not have been any better. The hotels were wonderful, the two tours we took went well, and there were no issues with flights or transfers.
