Lombok in the right season is something else, and the team knew exactly where to camp. Whoever planned the days knew what they were doing. Recommended.

Well organised from the pickup onwards. The daily distances were honest about what they'd be. Sleeping under canvas at that height is cold work and the kit was up to it. Whoever planned the days knew what they were doing. Would book with them again.
