Customizable itinerary

Embark on 8 days of Lombok Island tour to marvel at its breathtaking natural beauty and experience the vibrant life of local villages, each blessed with unique scenic surroundings and stunning mountainous panoramas.

Enjoy the eyecatching views of Lombok landscapes from the foothill of Mount Rinjani. From Lombok, embark on a boat trip to Gili islands, the little tropical paradises. These islands are a dream getaway, which shows you the true pristine nature of Indonesia with crystal clear water, diverse marine life and colourful coral reefs.

A warm greeting awaits at Lombok International Airport; your private guide and driver will meet you in the arrivals lounge and drive you directly to your hotel. Your knowledgeable guide will be happy to answer any questions along the way and will assist you with check-in and registration at the hotel.

After a short rest, we’ll head out for some sightseeing.

The trip will start in Lombok, east of The Wallace Line. Wallace found out in the 19th century that fauna and flora differ greatly between West and East Indonesia. The imaginary line separating the two is called the Wallace line up to this day. It runs through the Lombok Strait, encompassing some of the deepest oceans in the region. Before going to the hotel, start exploring Lombok and several handicraft villages surround Mataram, the sleepy provincial capital.



This tour will give you an opportunity to experience the mountainous and natural beauty on the height combined with a flat green area. Start with a visit to Loyok, a village known for the fine quality of Lombok handicrafts made from bamboo and palm leaves. Next will be the village of Sapiy, which offers cool air, terrace rice fields, stunning view and attractive forest and breathtaking panorama.

Then we will head to the village of Sembalun and the traditional Sasak villages on the eastern slopes of Mount Rinjani, with cool weather and breathtaking views. Continue to the magnificent waterfall at the southern foot of Mount Rinjani and enjoy the beautiful panoramic view. Explore the traditional village located at the main gateway to Mount Rinjani before ending today’s tour on a beautiful windy road, which offers a spectacular panorama of coastline and hill.

After breakfast, it will be a short drive to the local harbor for your traditional boat to Gili Trawangan.

The rest of the day you will be free to explore these magnificent surroundings.

Note: there are no motorized vehicles on the island, you can hire a cidomo (horse cart) if you’d like to explore the island.

We are committed to giving our customers unforgettable experiences in Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia and beyond, not just something staged for tourists. Read reviews written by our customers about their experiences in Indochina after they have returned home. These include the ratings and comments on attractions, guides, activities, hotels and food.

Great trip experience in Vietnam and Cambodia

We travelled to Vietnam (Hanoi, Sapa, HCM (Saigon) and Mekong Delta) and Cambodia (Siem Reap) and used Lizzie Pham from Asia Pioneer Travel to book all the transfers, guides and hotels. We couldn’t be happier with the travel arrangements. Lizzie and Elly were always there to check on how things were going and if something was brought to their notice, they would get it rectified immediately.

The highlights of our trip were the temple visits in Angkor Wat (Guide Ratnak was fantastic) and the homestay in the Mekong delta.

Would recommend Lizzie and Asia Pioneer Travel without reservation.

Vietnam

We recently returned from a 12-day trip to Vietnam that was organized by Asia Pioneer Travel. Cherry was fantastic; she organized and communicated everything perfectly. Would recommend them without reservation.

Amazing Holiday trip to Vietnam and Cambodia

Cherry crafted a wonderful trip for my family of 4 with private guides and drivers in several cities between Vietnam and Cambodia to celebrate Christmas and New Year’s Day. Our entire trip was full of interesting information and great food! Our guides were great, all with a wealth of knowledge regarding the sites they took us to and we were even able to take a few side trips off the beaten path to see the real Vietnam and Cambodia, not just the touristy areas. Overall we had an excellent trip and would definitely use Asia Pioneer Travel to plan future holidays.

SE Asia trip with Asia Pioneer Travel

We went from 12/18-24 to 1/3/25 on the SE Asia natural and food discovery tour. My wife and I decided to go on this trip in November without any prior knowledge of this company and very little in the countries we would visit. Mr Winston and Asia Pioneer Travel could not have been nicer to us. They delivered everything they promised in their trip. I was a bit concerned about this trip as we had been to India before and the sites and food are more exotic than most places. However, the guides were great and we got picked up and dropped off and had a guide with us to make the many activities we had go smoothly. The guides were happy to help is with whatever we needed including carrying lots of ice, cold bottles water for us.
We have travelled overseas extensively and this is one of the most action packed and memorable trips we have had.
At our request, this travel company switched part of our visit from Phuket, Thailand to Angkor Wat, Cambodia (which is the biggest religious site in the world and has some awesome temples) and they added a water puppet show (so fun) in Hanoi for us. We enjoyed the itinerary. We saw many different sites and tried many types of food on the food tours. We couldn’t have been happier on this trip. We highly recommend them. Great trip! Open communication all the way.
Is caring
