Wonderful experience snorkelling around the Gili's
Had a great experience exploring the Gilis with Mr. Rema's crew! Aji picked us up at our villa around 9 AM and took us to Nipah Beach. From there on my girlfriend and I were accompanied by a crew of three on a slow boat toward the three Gilis. We had some time (~20-30 minutes) to look around Gili T, after which we went snorkelling in the bay. Immediately spotted tons of fish and of course many sea turtles. Next up were the underwater statues. Although this spot was quite crowded, we still managed to get a good look at them. It was then time for a short break on Gili Meno, where we had a wonderful lunch at the Ana Warung / Resto. Many good options to choose from, both vegetarian and non-vegetarian. After finishing our lunch we finally continued on towards Gili Air. This was definitely the most impressive of the three snorkelling sites, with loads of colourful fish, coral, and more turtles. The crew had prepared a plastic bottle filled with bread in order to lure the fish, making sure we could see tons of them up close. The company offers a GoPro along with the tour, but we brought our own. Nevertheless, the crew used our GoPro to take stunning videos and photos of us swimming with the various sea animals. If you don't have your own, I'd highly recommend arranging one (price was a reasonable 250k IDR). A genuine must-see/-do if you're visiting Lombok and aren't planning on a stay in the Gilis.

Do it!!
We had an amazing snorkeling trip to the three Gili Islands with Lombok Tour Club. Everything was well organized, the staff was friendly, and the snorkeling spots were beautiful. We saw lots of fish, turtles, and enjoyed the whole day a lot. It was a great experience and we would definitely recommend it!

10/10 would book again!
We LOVED our tour! Aji our guide and Ali our driver were so lovely! We were picked up from our hotel and driven to the dock near the Gili islands. Aji pointed out sights along the way and let us stop for pictures. The boat trip was so much fun, we stopped in beautiful snorkelling spots and had the option of GoPro videos taken of our swims. We saw turtles and had such a laugh I cannot recommend this trip enough! 10/10 would do again!

Really good trip!
The trip went well and we were taken good care of! We got a lot of interesting information on the way out and on the way back we were able to relax after a hard journey. Rema was a really good guy
Response from the operator: Thank you for your kind words! 😊 We’re happy to hear you had a great trip and enjoyed the experience with Rema. Hope to see you again in Lombok! 🙏

Private Snorkeling Tour of Gili Islands in Air Meno and Trawangan: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Lombok.
How much does Private Snorkeling Tour of Gili Islands in Air Meno and Trawangan cost?
+
Prices start at $71 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 Private Snorkeling Tour of Gili Islands in Air Meno and Trawangan take?
+
Plan for about 8 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 Private Snorkeling Tour of Gili Islands in Air Meno and Trawangan worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 69 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 9 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Lombok, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Private Snorkeling Tour of Gili Islands in Air Meno and Trawangan?
+
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 Private Snorkeling Tour of Gili Islands in Air Meno and Trawangan suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private Snorkeling Tour of Gili Islands in Air Meno and Trawangan?
+
Around 3 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 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Snorkeling Tour of Gili Islands in Air Meno and Trawangan 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.

+

Does Private Snorkeling Tour of Gili Islands in Air Meno and Trawangan include hotel pickup?
+

What languages is Private Snorkeling Tour of Gili Islands in Air Meno and Trawangan offered in?
