Things to do Starting in Kuta Lombok

Kuta Lombok is the up and coming trendy city of Lombok Island with lots of water activities from surfing to diving.

We had a wonderful day out exploring Lombok!! Our driver and guide were so knowledgeable, accommodating and kind! They were happy to make the tour personalized. We started with breakfast in Kuta before visiting a lovely weaving village. We then had lunch at a fast Warung before touring around Tetebatu. We walked the rice fields, saw black monkeys and a beautiful waterfall. Would highly recommend!!

Def not everyday or everywhere where you get to enjoy a peaceful &amp; beautiful tiny island that you may get all to yourself if you stay overnight! Honestly being the only ones camping on an island was a superb experience I won’t ever forget. Imagine, sunset from tiny island, dinner a boat ride away, bonfire &amp; live music under moonlight, then waking up to the calm beach right outside the tent. Admittedly this camping experience is fully camping, meaning no fresh water or shower or modern sanitation so be well prepared (bring water bottles) and do not come expecting a polished experience. It is raw &amp; rustic and I think that is precisely the charm. An added challenge was that it rained for a few hours, which made everything wet and cold invited many mozzies, however the rain did stop and we were able to enjoy the bonfire to warm up after! Camping may not be everyone's cup of tea, but in believe you could just do a day trip to the island as well if you do not wish to stay over! I honestly loved it, peaceful island all to yourself, seeing sunset, moonlight and sunrise at your own shore is unparalleled. Worth all the struggle and temporary discomfort.

One of the best dive experiences we’ve had. They came to our hotel to do the paperwork the day before our dive, picked us up at our hotel the morning of our dive, and took us on a wonderful trio of dives. The boat is spacious and comfortable—they think of every little need. People on the boat were at various levels, getting different training, and having just a variety of needs that they managed with ease, giving a great day to all. We loved it so much, we went back two more times, and they were able to take us to a different spot for all our dives.
 Our dive masters were friendly, cheerful, and experienced—this is a company that is chill and relaxed where you want them to be, and detail oriented where it matters. We would definitely use them for all our future Lombok dives.
 Among the usual, we saw turtles, white tipped sharks, octopuses, barracudas, and a great little wreck. The reef was also beautiful to explore.

I did my 3-day Open Water Diver Course with Scuba Froggy in Senggigi, Lombok. I attended the course solo and there was one other person doing the course with me.

Our dive instructor Akmal was very patient and supportive throughout the course, allowing us to become at ease in the water and grow in confidence as the course went on. Akmal was also very thorough with the theoretical / exam side of the course and was proactive in running through the material as required at convenient moments in between dives. We were able to swim in locations with coral reefs and marine wildlife (including some big turtles!). Akmal &amp; the crew were keen to ensure we saw these things and that we got the most out of our time on the boat. I was also able to do an extra dive on top of the course dives for a discounted rate.

I overpaid for the course initially but this was resolved with Alicja by the time I had completed the course. They were able to pay me back in cash. No problems at all there. They also provided transport to &amp; from the dive centre / boat location each day from my accommodation in Senggigi.

Overall, I thoroughly recommend the team at Scuba Froggy Senggigi if you are thinking of completing your Open Water Diver Course on Lombok.

Thanks again!

Very fun day! We were 4 friends and 2 of us never rode a bike before, but they teach you how to do it and in 15 minutes you have the hang of it! At first we had to get into it a bit with shifting gears and driving the cross bikes, but our guides took that into account and went slow. Once we mastered it we could go faster! We drove past beautiful authentic villages and stopped several times at beautiful viewpoints. We had chosen the coastal trail (instead of the jungle trail) and my personal highlight was riding on the beach right next to the waterline. We did a lot on our Bali/Lombok holiday (Paragliding, ATV tour, Rafting…) but this activity was honestly the most fun!

What a day with this amazing team !!! We had so much fun during the whole day, laughing, having the best moment here in the Lombok jungle. Anna and her team were simply perfect, taking care of us, challenging us, the food was great, the waterfall swim was a perfect rest moment. I recommend that day without an hesitation and I would do it again as soon as I can !
 Many thanks for everything !!

I have done (survived) 5 spectacular day trips with the amazing crew at Mud &amp; Gears. They will cater from beginners to advanced. You will get to see what no tourist will ever see in Lombok. I’ve seen some of the most spectacular sights during these day trips and have an absolute adrenaline rush in the process. They provide guides and mechanic there to ensure you have a safe and unforgettable experience and lunch in some very cool locations. The most fun one can have whilst seeing beautiful Lombok. Best tour in Lombok!
