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.

Reviews on Our Service
Family trip to Vietnam
We have just come back from a fabulous 16 day trip to Vietnam organised by Chloe from Asia Pioneer. We travelled from Hanoi, to Sapa had a night in Hanlong Bay then flew to central Vietnam for a few days and then flew down to Ho Chi Min and travelled down to Mekong Delta so we certainly saw a lot of the country. We travelled with our 2 teenage kids and the full itinerary Chloe organised was perfect for us. So many memorable experiences, trekking through the scenic hillside in Sapa, local markets, overnight train to Hanoi, cooking classes, bike ridding through small villages, walking food tour and the tunnels in Ho Chi Min, these were just some of the wonderful things we experienced.
Everything was so well organised, once we arrived we didn’t have to worry about a thing everything ran smoothly. All the guides that we had a long way were fantastic and add to our experience. The hotels exceeded our expectations and I especially loved the cute little bungalows we stayed on on the Mekong River.
I would definitely recommend Vietnam for a family holiday with teenagers. And I would certainly recommend Chloe from Asia Pioneer.
Fantastic Experiance
We went on the “Best of Vietnam and Cambodia Tour” and it was a fantastic trip. Mr. Winston our travel advisor created a trip with the sites and places we wanted to see. Mr. Winston was always available on WhatsApp to inform us of when we would be picked up and by whom.
Every part of the trip went smoothly.
I learned so much about life in Vietnam and ate great food.
I am a vegetarian and it was easy finding vegetarian food and seafood options at the hotel breakfasts and included lunches.
The hotels were boutique hotels in great locations near restaurants and shopping.
We want to specifically thank our guide in Hoi An Mr. Chong. He went above and beyond the expected to show us restaurants, and help us with a magical lantern boat ride and lantern release on the Hoai river.
I am very happy with Asia Pioneer Travel and would definitely recommend them to anyone going to Vietnam and Cambodia.
A great way to see Cambodia – the Asia Pioneer Travel way
The pick up, tour guides, hotels selection were great.
Everything went off as promised.
It was a great experience and we thoroughly relaxed and just enjoyed the Cambodia experience.
Amazing Vietnam! Must visit!
Cherry planned the trip perfectly. We went to HCM, Hanoi and Halong Bay. She was very accommodating with all the changes. Loved every minute of it 🙂
