Beautiful island hopping adventure!
Communication from Junaidi was very good, confirming our pick up. He looked after us all day very well, explaining about the culture of Lombok and ensuring we were relaxed, safe and enjoying ourselves as much as possible! The boat was great, snorkelling amazing and lunch delicious! I had such a wonderful day with my sister, we won’t ever forget it! Thank you again Junaidi and to our car and boat drivers too.

Fantastic private family secret Gilis tour
The private secret Gilis tour was an excellent choice for our family of five, staying in Kuta. Our guide, Wawan, was wonderful! He was prompt, a good driver, and communicative. He let us tailor the trip to what the family was feeling as the trip progressed. The boat ride was beautiful, although choppy at times, but the captain did his best to avoid the biggest waves. He was also fantastic in being our snorkeling guide and filming the marine life and us, during our snorkeling adventures! It was a very welcomed and unexpected surprise! Lunch was well organized and pretty filling. All the spots were scenic, although we chose to skip one as it was a little crowded and didn't think we'd see much different underwater. Instead, we ended up going to a local village where the women handcrafted fabric. We got a goddesses tour by one of the village women and learned a lot about the culture and craft. It was a fabulous trip and highly recommended adventure!
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for taking the time to provide your review on TripAdvisor. It was our pleasure to be able to assist you and help to make your trip a memorable one. We will share your kind words with all of our team, this will be a positive reinforcement for them to continuously improve the service in future. Thank you once again for your comment and we look forward to welcoming you back to Indonesia for another trip with us

Great Secret Gilis trip from Lombok
We had a wonderful day exploring the three Secret Gilis. Our guide was very friendly, reliable, and well organized throughout the whole trip. The snorkeling was beautiful, with clear water and a lovely coral reef to explore. Lunch was local, fresh, and very tasty, which made the experience even more authentic.

Exclusive Private Experience: 5 Secret Gili Islands: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Lombok.
How much does Exclusive Private Experience: 5 Secret Gili Islands cost?
+
Prices start at $81 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Lombok usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Exclusive Private Experience: 5 Secret Gili Islands take?
+
Plan for about 10 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Lombok is not rushed.
Is Exclusive Private Experience: 5 Secret Gili Islands worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 88 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 222 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most highly reviewed in Lombok, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Exclusive Private Experience: 5 Secret Gili Islands?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Exclusive Private Experience: 5 Secret Gili Islands suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 10-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Exclusive Private Experience: 5 Secret Gili Islands?
+
Around 78 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Lombok can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Lombok and add a light layer if any part of the 10-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Exclusive Private Experience: 5 Secret Gili Islands start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Lombok within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Lombok?
+
On Outty we rank every Lombok experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Anggrek Putih Lombok Cooking Class & Garden Tour, Private Car Charter in Bali with an English-speaking Driver, Tetebatu Walking Tour - Rice Terraces, Waterfall & Monkey Forest. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Lombok?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Lombok?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in Exclusive Private Experience: 5 Secret Gili Islands?
