Weave through traditional Sasak walled villages where hand-loom weaving and ancient animist-Islamic rituals endure, then ascend the emerald staircase of Bukit Selong's rice terraces for Lombok's most photographed vista.
What to expect
Your guide escorts you through the earthen lanes of Sade or Ende village, where conical thatched bale houses and hand-woven ikat textiles paint a vivid picture of Sasak life. A scenic drive into the Sembalun highlands rewards you with the jaw-dropping terraced rice fields of Bukit Selong, backdropped by the flanks of Rinjani. A farm-to-table lunch at a hillside warung completes the immersion before a comfortable return to port.
Good to know
Full day; aim to depart port by 08:00. Sade village entrance is a modest donation (~IDR 20,000). Light, modest clothing (shoulders & knees covered) is respectful and practical. Book 1–2 weeks ahead for private vehicle availability.
