Holidays to Lombok & Gili Islands
Escape the crowds of Bali and head to the lesser-visited (and less touristy) Lombok and the Gili Islands. Part of the Lesser Sunda Island chain, Lombok is home to open spaces, unspoilt beaches and Indonesia’s second largest volcano; just a short boat ride away are the motor-free Gili Islands, Trawangan, Meno and Air. Take things slow here as you explore ancient mosques, villages inhabited by the indigenous Sasak people and stunning landscapes from arcs of white sand to streaming waterfalls and seemingly endless rice paddies.
