For my last few weeks in Indonesia this time around I decided to set foot on Lombok, an island situated in the West Nusa Tenggara province of Indonesia which is home to round about 4 million inhabitants. Here, the rhythm is different to the previous destinations I visited in Indonesia. With a predominantly Muslim population, this serene island, away from the bustling thoroughfares awaits with natural splendor...but the rising tide of tourism is beginning to re-shape the island. This Lombok documentary aims to show the diversity of this island covering the historic and religious background, explaining the cultural roots as well as the natural and man made sights.

This Lombok Travel Documentary is the third part of a Documentary Series called „Indonesia is not only Bali“. While many visitors mainly focus on Bali alone, Indonesia with its more than 17,000 islands offers a wealth of incredible destinations each with its unique charm and attractions.
Therefore my plan was to visit a number of different destinations to showcase the diversity of the country to the best of my ability. In this episode I’ll be embarking on a solo roadtrip adventure all around the island of Lombok with a tiny scooter and a surfboard to show you some more hidden gems, proving that there is so much more to this enchanting archipelago. In a few short years, Kuta has changed from a sleepy seaside village into the main focus of tourism development in Lombok
In order to show you the whole diversity of Indonesia I tried to cover the majority of sights in this Lombok Documentary from the south over the West, north to the east as well as the volcanos and waterfalls in the center of Lombok.
You can use this Lombok Documentary to plan your own trip to Lombok, on my website you’ll find all essential information needed.

Subtitle Indonesia sudah tersedia sekarang! - For my Indonesian viewers I have now provided subtitles in Bahasa. Even though they might not be 100% accurate I hope this helps to understand the video. Thanks for watching and the support. It means a lot to me when I see Indonesians appreciating the content I publish about their country. Terima kasih banyak!🤩
I suggest you be more careful when you want to shop or buy food in Indonesia, because usually many traders increase prices for foreign tourists like you. Usually the price of food is cheap, only 10 thousand rupiah, but naughty traders increase the price to 50 thousand rupiah. Many foreign tourists have become victims of fraud by traders in Indonesia. I don't mean to belittle Indonesians, but that's what happened. in my experience as an Indonesian myself.
Finally you share the fact that Bali is not the only place in Indonesia worth visiting. Happy exploring Indonesia and stay safe!
🙌
This is the best video I've seen on Lombok. I visited Bali in 2019 for the first time, and honestly, I was really disappointed. It's a beautiful place with lovely people but now that it's simply over run with tourism I just couldn't enjoy myself.
Ever since I came back, I've been wanting to go back to Indonesia and found Lombok through research online. I'm going back in September, and this time, I'm spending plenty of time in Lombok and the Gilis. I really look forward to finding something closer to what I was seeking in 2019 when I went to Bali.
Thanks! ❤
Best video I`ve seen so far about Lombok - thank you for this amazing footage 😍 Will be there in less than 2 weeks and can`t wait.
yaah! same i'm heading there 13th may!
I’ve been to Lombok twice around 2015-2016, and will be heading over this May. Wasn’t able to find really informative videos on CZcams until yours came to my feed.
Great video, happy to see these actual footage that I couldn’t find online or on Google map!
Terima kasih sdh informasikan keindahan pulau lombok..kami sangat bangga dgn negara kami indonesia👍👍👍
Indonesia is a large country with the 4th population in the world after India, China and the USA, and the country with the largest Muslim population in the world, around 85% of Indonesia's population of 277 million people, the Indonesian archipelago consists of more than 17,000 islands, with 700 languages. different regions, and more than 400 ethnic groups, but all Indonesian people speak Indonesian as a unifier, that's why Indonesia's Motto is: Bhinneka Tunggal Ika, which means diversity in unity, the country of Indonesia is very diverse in its cultural traditions, languages and customs, Indonesia can be said to be a unique country, you can find everything from traditional natural beauty to super modern high end life style, and Indonesia's independence day is 17 August 1945
You have really inspired me to go and see so much more in Indonesia. Thanks ! Glad I found you.
Thank you. Very informative. Love watching your videos. I was planning to stay in Bali for a couple of weeks but after watching this... Lombok.🦋.. here i come👍👍👍. I'm so excited for my upcoming trip and your videos are so informative and adventurous. All the best in all your endeavors 🦋🙏
I like the representation of your videos. Love from 🇮🇳🇮🇷
Thanks!
Great Lombok Documentary. Well edited and presented. Such a beautiful place to explore. Tnx4sharing. Watching from DUBAI
14:39 Lombok and Bali have the same island size, population and population density. the difference is that there are many tourists in Bali, both local and international.
notes
Bali is inhabited by Balinese people.
Lombok is inhabited by Sasak people
Lombok island is bigger than Bali actually.
This is the best video I have ever seen. ❤❤❤❤
The charm of Lombok is the pearl .If Bali was first famous and in the world's spotlight in developing the progress of its tourism objects from Lombok, of course this is what makes Bali an island visited by many people by foreign tourists .However, currently Lombok is starting to advance and develop the potential of its beautiful island as a tourist destination, with the attraction and charm of its extraordinary natural beauty under development in all sectors,
we continue to make breakthroughs . With the current development process, in the future Lombok could be more advanced than Bali.
Terimakasih telah mampir di pulau kecil kami yang indah ini..
Salam Lombok Timur
Wow..litle paradise
Wow you're truly live in a paradise called Lombok❤
Cantik! Really enjoying this documentary. Beautiful footage, anecdotes and stories. I can't wait to see Senggigi & Kuta for my birthday! Bungalows look great as well! Terima Kasih banyak.

Incredible, I was waiting for this video. I've watched the previous ones a couple of times. I'm going to Indonesia 1st of march and really wanted to visit Lombok. This guide makes it very easy for me.
Your video's are of insane quality, you have a lot of talent as a film maker. Keep it up!
Have fun!
Thanks for beautiful video. Next Bunaken National Park in MANADO North Sulawesi ❤❤
As much as i want lombok to thrive, i also want it to stay like this, beautiful nature and not so many people around, i just can't imagine places like selong belanak beach and the others get destroyed by over tourism
Hi Steve, great video! May I asked what month did you visit Lombok?
Beautiful video. Thanks for showing such an extended part of Indonesia especially beyond Bali.
Have a nice trip and enjoy the natural beauty if Lombok
Amazing movie👌🏼. You just convinced me to travel to Lombok on our next holiday 😋🌴
Terima kasih udah berkunjung ke lombok ❤
Really like your videos! Honest, no hype, slow, not selling anything type. Also like how you have been doing videos for so long and still going strong. Keep it up! Btw cant seem to get HD on this video, and the lower resolution doesn't do the nature justice, it may be my setup though...
Love your videos! So pure and honest. Thx
Happy nice day bro, this is good scenery island.
Yes, thank you
Literally every comment in this video compares Lombok & Bali. Come on now guys!

I really enjoy your explanation
yeah and i love you 😘😃
Kamu ada dimana2 Sh mbake, udh makan belum?
hopefully you will get more subscribers!! youre videos are informatives and amazing!!
So well done. Thanks for sharing Steve.
I think in 2024 you have to get off the beaten track to find good places in Bali and Lombok. They still have their appeal but Flores, Sumbawa, Sumatra, Sumba is like going back in time, where people in villages wave at you and its alot more adventureous and untouched. :-)
Editing this video,so good...I am is like watching in the movie 👍👍👍
Great job brother.. ❤
Thanks ✌️
Nice!!!
Glad that finally, I got to watch the original video.
ditunggu part 4 nyaaaa
Very beautiful video.
Thank you very much!
I like your video and your explaining about Indonesia country thank you
Very informative. Yup, Lombok is a great place to visit. I went there at end of September last year. I really enjoy it but unfortunately not enough time to explore a lot because my visit lasted only one week and at that time it's dry season and vegetation looks brownie. So may I know when is the best time to visit and explore Lombok? I'm planning to visit again this year for at least 3 weeks.
Thanks for watching - I've traveled around Lombok in January and February during the rain season. I got lucky with the weather but would still go for it, as it is way less crowded and the landscape is green and accommodation are cheaper and easier to get.
Very nice video
Mantap
Wow video ini sangat keren,cara pengambilan gambar nya bagus banget..
Luarbiasa alam kita indonesia
The best video about Lombok so far!
I went to Lombok in 2019 and this year I'm going there again. Thank you for an update!
Could you tell me what the accommodation was in Tetebatu?
Goods video 👍👍👍
pariwisata meroket❤

One day I visit Lombok..
I am planning a trip to Lombok with some friends. Would you recommend booking a hotel/stay in advance or just turn up and see where you can stay? :)
I'd recommend booking something in advance in order to have a variety of options. Lombok got way more popular this year! ;)
Lombokkk kerenn broo
Keren, saya selalu ingin berpetualang

My wife and I were there last October. Market produce was more expensive when I was there with my wife and her sister. Bule tax!
My wife went back the next day. With her niece, and without me.
TOTALLY SATISFIED ❤

Wonderful video of the paradise that is Lombok! 👏🏾💜 Can I ask if there is to be a review coming? As there didn’t appear to be a summary of your travels around Lombok included in this episode..
I'm planning on doing a few shorter videos highlighting the popular sights on each of the big islands I visited to make it easier for travelers to plan their own trip. Thanks for following along!

I miss my homeland, my lombok island🥲 thanks for this video.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Hello! Can you do a travel video about Estonia🇪🇪?
Hi Steve !
Is riding a scooter in Lombok safe ?
sebetulnya mau keliling indonesia dengan naik motor akan aman-aman saja. terutama untuk jawa, bali dan lombok. tapi saya sarankan untuk berkendara disiang hari saja menghindari hal-hal yang tidak diinginkan. pelajari medan yang akan ditempuh sebelum berangkat.
I think so. Lombok is much quieter than the crowded Bali.
Thanks for pointing this out!
I think so! I didn't run into any issues but I also drive careful and do have a motorcycle license. I recommend taking it slow in the beginning and getting used to driving a scooter if you haven't used one before.
How easy is it to travel in lombok with car?
👌💯🌏
🥰🇮🇩
I think Lombok is more beautiful in my opinion. Bali was great long time ago but it is suffering from mass tourism and other things sadly. I hope they don't do this to Lombok because it really is a beautiful island
I lombok lombok
aku ke bali pun karena nuansa, budaya, aristektur dst...kalau polos tak ada yang bisa ditonjolkan yah kurang ada aura...perihal resort dan hotel mewah dimanapun tempat di indonesia bisa buatlah, secara bentuk geografis dan kenampakan alam juga mirip2...
Faktanya masih banyak orang mancanegara yg milih Lombok atau tempat lainnya dari Bali karena selain semua orang punya selera yg berbeda Bali udah terlalu banyak turis yg bikin macet yg awalnya datang ke Bali buat healing malah jadi sumpek. Kalo tujuan utamanya hanya sekedar arsitektur aku rasa semua tempat punya hal uniknya masing-masing.
@@user-ff3dw9bg2nBetul sekali, saya sebagai orang Lombok juga mengakui Bali itu memang sangat kental dengan adat istiadatnya yg sudah terkenal di Dunia dan yg paling terkenal menonjol dari pulau lain di Indonesia.
Tapi bukan berarti Pulau lainnya tidak punya days tarik tersendiri dalam segi adat dan budaya, contohnya saja adat di Tana Toraja yg sangat unik dan tidak ditemukan di daerah lain.
Di Lombok pun begitu, misalnya ada acara Bau Nyale dan Perang Topat yg tidak ada di daerah lain karena acara tersebut menyimbolkan kerukunan antara umat Muslim dan Hindu di Lombok, Selain itu banyak juga acara adat khusus suku sasak dan upacara keagamaan umat muslim yg dirayakan di Lombok dan cukup digemari oleh wisatawan begitu juga dengan acara keagamaan umat hindu yg bebas dilakukan di sini walaupun mayoritasnya adalah muslim.
Untuk arsitektur karena Lombok mayoritasnya muslim jadi arsitektur yg dapat dilihat di sini adalah Masjid-Masjid yg memadukan antara arsitektur khas Timur-tengah dan Sasak yg lagi-lagi banyak wisatawan yg muslim maupun non-muslim menyukainya. Selain itu di sini juga banyak pura-pura berarsitektur khas yg dapat di jumpai.
Kalau ada pertanyaan "Tapi kok turis tetap sedikit di Lombok ketimbang Bali? "
Pertama, Bali sudah jauh lebih dulu dipromosikan dan dikenal di mancanegara, bahkan saat masa kolonial pun Bali sudah jadi primadona sedangkan Lombok pariwisatanya baru di perhatian sekitar tahun 2010 yg mana masih sangat muda jadi wajar kebanyakan orang akan lebih memilih Bali ketimbang Lombok ketika pertama kali ke Indonesia karena selain fasilitas yg sudah mapan, kita juga enggan kan pergi ke tempat yg kurang populer
kalau preferensi memang masing2...dan saya suka kultur bali...orang lain bisa beda...sayang bali sampe sumpek dan indonesia yang begitu luas kultur bali hnya sebesar pulau yang tak sampai 0,5% wilayah RI...pengaruh budayanya pun paling cuma di banyuwangi dst..smua daerah bisalah yang berpotensi lakukan promosi wisata sebaik mungkin...tapi timbang skedar teori2 tinggal rasakan dan lihat turis tertarik dan banyak tidak di wilayah2 atau tempat itu...kebanyakan daya tariknya apa...lebih murahkah, alamnya kah..meskipun lagi soal alam tak jauh2 beda lah...@@user-ff3dw9bg2n
@@user-ff3dw9bg2nkami dari Bali tdk pernah merasa paling hebat dan sebagainya. Kami dari Bali tdk pernah merendahkan daerah wisata lainnya. Justru kita sering beri info ke tamu2 tentang wisata daerah lain. Spt yg anda katakan lbh banyak bule2 memilih Lombok dan daerah lainnya ya bagus, berarti pariwisatanya sdh merata. Kami Bali tdk menamakan diri tapi biarkan tamu atau bule2 yg menilai. Krn SDM kami tdk diajarkan mempromosikan Bali dgn menjatuhkan daerah lain dan kami tdk pernah merasa menjadi yg terbaik. Krn kami terus belajar dan berbenah walaupun Bali sdh sering jadi tempat forum2 tingkat Internasional. Maaf jika kami Bali msh banyak kekurangan, tapi kami terus akan berbenah demi Indonesia. 🙏🙏
indonesia not just bali
Bali
STEVE......1 MONTH IN AND YOU STILL HAVENT CORRECTED THE ACTUAL LOCATION OF KUTA!!!!!!
IT IS REALLY IMPORTANT WHEN YOU SHARE INFORMATION......
THAT YOU GET THE LOCATION RIGHT......
YOU INDICATE KUTA IS IN THE GILLIS 😮😮😮😮😮😮

Kok gk da yg bisa ngalahin bali ya bertahun2 sory ya seindah pun alam kalian tidak akan pernah nglaahin bali bali best culture and nature
MashaAllah my country. ❤
Be honest. Did you really enjoy it or could be better?
Hantu means ghost so its a ghost villa. Im not going to wait around the sunset there 😂
Actually, the island of Lombok is more beautiful than Bali, according to my experience
first one
Indonesia is in which part or bali?
Oh no, there are no Indonesian subtitles
Coming soon. I'm working on it, but I'm not fluent in bahasa 🙃
Kuta (Lombok) = Lombok no ( ), it is the name, not *Kuta*. Tts kinda like saying Mr. Jones or for your case Mr.(Jones)... his name is NOT *Mr./Mister*.. or a ( ) needed
???💢
I subscribe U no 143001 😂
Goodluck
Thanks!
