Day 1
Airport Pick Up
Touch down in Lombok babyyy! Fly into Zainuddin Abdul Madjid International Airport, formally known as Lombok International Airport and we’ll pick you up there. Not literally grab you and throw you over our shoulders, but we’ll meet you with a smile and a wave. If you’re already over this way and are catching the boat from Bali, we’ll meet you at our lovely resort. Grab some rays, lay out by the pool soak in the Indonesian sun before dinner and drinks with your new TruCrew!
Day 2
SASAK VILLAGE & WATERFALLS
Today we immerse ourselves in Indonesian culture & customs at a local Sasak Village. We’re taught traditional techniques passed down from generation to generation. Hey you might even be good at it, if not at least you can say you tried! Win win right? After we leave the village we’re off to in search of waterfalls! We take a trek through the jungle before we arrive at one of the most spectacular waterfalls in Indonesia. Cool off, take a dip, grab those insta snaps, it's a full day out! We head back to the hotel for a quick shower before we head for dinner and a beer or two with the TruFam.

LOMBOK BEACH DAY
DID SOMEONE SAY BEACH DAY?! You can’t visit Indonesia and not spend a day on the beach. Lucky for you, we know all the hidden gems of Lombok! We spend the day on a beach hop as we journey along the southern coastline. Grab a board, practise your surf skills or just sit back, coconut in hand and top up that tan. The evening is ours to spend as we please so we head back and get ready before we grab dinner together and see where the night takes us!

Wake up, breathe in the fresh air of the Komodo National Park and admire one of the most beautiful sunrises you are ever likely to see. Kick back and watch the islands float past as you eat your breakfast. We’re sailing to Manta Point, a once in a lifetime opportunity to snorkel amongst the gentle giants. Manta Point is home to families of manta rays although intimidating in size they really are harmless, humble giants. We’ll be visiting Pink Beach. Yeah it’s really pink! Before we trek up to the stunning viewpoint on Padar Island for sunset. It really is out of this world. Before heading back to the boat for a cold beer, a moment you’ll never forget with your TruFam.
