Review Body: From the start of the trip we were picked up from our hotel and Nasri and Yusuf were our guide and drivers. Super informative, kind, and professional. We were on a private Longtail boat with seats on the top of the boat as well, and headed off to see 5 Gili islands with 4 snorkeling spots. The coral and fish were unreal and like anything I have ever seen! Nasri and Yusuf came snorkeling with us and made us feel VERY safe and were very helpful. Had lunch on a private island on the beach with views of other islands and Lombok's lush terrain. HIGHLY recommend this trip! Thank you Nasri and Yusuf for making us feel like family and showing us your the beautiful island you call home, Lombok 😍

Review Body: I am so glad that I came across this Tour online. Booked the private tour last minute but everything was superb! Both the owner and our personal driver, Pak Anda, was so soo wonderful and helpful in ensuring that everything went well throughout our trip. They are communicative, really friendly and super helpful. I honestly didn’t expect this at such an affordable price that we paid. So yes, I do recommend this for your next trip to Lombok 👍

Review Body: 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!!

Review Body: Lombok is stunningly beautiful. I had so much fun at Lombok and for me it was a memorable trip thanks to Bale Laut. The service from the tour was great and the tour guide (Bapak Aep) is really friendly and helpful.

Review Body: We had an incredible tour of the Secret Gili Islands with Wawan and his crew! From the moment we started, they were friendly, welcoming, and made sure we had an amazing experience. As a lovely surprise, they even included a visit to a local weaving village at no extra cost, which was such a special cultural experience. The snorkeling spots were absolutely stunning, with crystal-clear water and beautiful marine life. Throughout the day, Wawan shared fascinating insights into the history and culture of Lombok, which made the tour even more memorable. You can really tell how passionate and knowledgeable the team is. If you're visiting Lombok, I can't recommend this tour enough. Thank you, Wawan and the crew, for such an unforgettable day!

Review Body: This day was spectacular. We had the best time with our guides junaidi, Yana and Ilham who from the start did everything they could to make our day special and they succeeded. They were really informative about local culture and customs and we visited 5 of the beautiful secret Gilis, stopping to snorkel at the best spots. They pointed out a turtle and various highlights of the myriad of colourful fish and coral we saw. Lunch was a feast, including fresh coconut and barbecue fish, and we sat on top of the boat like King and Queen as we ferried between islands. I would do this trip again in a heartbeat, but the real value was in the friends we made today. Thanks so much, guys ❤️

Review Body: One of the best snorkeling trips I’ve ever experienced! The water was incredibly clear, and I was lucky enough to spot 5–6 turtles and even some baby barracudas. The vibrant coral gardens and countless black Nemos made every snorkeling spot feel magical. The short boat ride through the mangrove tunnel was stunning, with breathtaking views of Mount Rinjani. Each island felt like a private paradise, especially Gili Kapal and Gili Kondo, and Gili Bidara was wonderfully peaceful and uncrowded. And the food—oh my! I’ve never had such fresh and delicious meals on a snorkeling trip. It was an absolute treat from start to finish.

Review Body: My family and I had a wonderful time with Bale Laut. All the guides are professional, helpful and we truly felt cared for throughout. They truly cater to our needs of our group with elderly and kids. The tour is definitely recommended for everyone to see the less ventured part of the island. It was beautiful and worth the trip! The photographer/videographer took so much efforts to capture memories for us which we deeply appreciate. Thank you to the whole team for making a core memory for us! We will definitely book again to try out other tours when we can :)

Review Body: This summer, I visited the Secret Gilis with Bale Laut Tour and it was a unique experience. They picked me up right from my hotel in Kuta and drove safely all the way to the Secret Gilis. On the drive, Nining shared so much about Lombok's culture and the islands. The snorkeling was incredible, easily one of the highlights of my trip in Indonesia. Yudi was a fantastic guide, making sure I saw as much marine life as possible. I highly recommend this tour!!! A huge shoutout to Nining and Yudi, the experience wouldn't have been the same without them. 🤿🐠

Review Body: We were treated like queens, they asked what we wanted to do and took our wishes into consideration. We swam with turtles and saw hundreds of beautiful fish. It was just us with 3 guides which we were a bit confused by in the beginning but they were very friendly and attentive. Mawa thought us about the culture and Buguh was probably the driver we felt the safest with on the streets compared to other experiences. The food was delicious and they also offered vegetarian option. Definitely recommend. Thank you very much

Review Body: Our trip did not disappoint! Our guide, Junaidi, was wonderful. Share history of Lombok with us on the way to the boat. Each gili was unique. Snorkeling in the clear blue waters was a delight, but the colorful fish below were even better. We snorkeled with several sea turtles and enjoyed our local lunch. We hired the photo/videographer so we could focus on spending family time together and enjoying the whole experience—highly recommend. I would go back tomorrow if I could.

Review Body: We had a wonderful day with our guide Wawan and his team. We visited a local sasak village to see the traditional way of life and the ladies showed us their incredible weaving skill of Songket fabric. We then caught a fishing boat to 5 different islands and snorkelled with a wide variety of fish and turtles. We had a delicious grilled fish lunch. Would definitely recommend this tour, the islands were not crowded and the quality of the snorkelling was great.

Review Body: Incredible day! We had the best guides, Renza, and Pasek were so helpful and knowledgeable. We got to feed some fish which was super fun. Lunch was delicious and we were the first to the lunch spot and it was stunning. We paid for the GoPro add-on and Habib, our snorkeling guide, took the best photos! Recommend reef friendly sunscreen and lots of it!

Review Body: An amazing day! The sites were superb, teeming with coral, fish and a turtle. But our tour guide, Dwi, alongside the captain of the boat and the other staff really made it special. Incredibly friendly, helpful and enthusiastic. Of all the snorkeling tours we have done, we would highly recommend this one!

Review Body: The entire experience was wonderful & safe! We had read a lot of stories about people having bad experiences due to unsafe waters & guides, but Iyan & our captain were friendly, present & extremely responsible throughout. It’s very much worth the price. Recommended for sure guys. Cheers & all the best.

Review Body: Wonderful experience for both my husband and myself. We brought our own GoPro, and our guide Mustafa took wonderful photos and videos using it while we got to enjoy the turtles, fish, and corals. Plenty of time was allowed at each snorkeling location, and lunch was quiet and enjoyable. Highly recommend!
