Passeio de Snorkel nas Ilhas Gili, Lombok

Amazing snorkelling experience, and able to accommodate for solo traveller booking. Well organized tour and service provided.

It was a wonderful tour! We met in front of "BAREN BAREN TOUR & TRAVEL" before 10 AM. We did boat snorkeling at three spots in the morning, and one spot in the afternoon after lunch. During snorkeling, the guide swam with us, telling us things like, "There's a sea turtle here," or "This is a nice coral spot." This made us feel safe and allowed us to enjoy a very pleasant walk in the sea. We encountered several sea turtles from the first spot, which was very moving! At the second spot, we were able to see a large sea turtle eating up close, even in shallow water that was only navel-deep. Lunch is not included in the tour, but after the third spot, we were guided to a restaurant on the island where we landed, so everyone could have lunch there. They also showed us a tank near the restaurant where we could see baby sea turtles. The fourth spot was rich in coral, truly a natural aquarium! The variety and abundance of fish were best here. When we arrived at each spot, the guide would call out "Get Ready!" from the boat, and that was our cue to put on our masks and fins and jump into the sea, which was also fun. What was common to all of them was the incredibly high clarity of the sea. Blessed with good weather and the guide's thorough care, it was the best snorkeling tour. We were able to return to the port by 3 PM, so it's a sports-oriented tour where you swim vigorously at each spot in a short amount of time (with almost no time to relax on the beach). However, for those who want to enjoy interacting with fish and sea turtles, it's the best tour. When I come to Gili Air again, I would definitely like to use this service again.

It was a superb experience. The guides took us to 3 different spots + 1 hour lunch break in Gili Meno, however the guides should be a bit more relaxed with the day's schedule because snorkeling is quite a tiring activity and everything goes very fast.

Friendly guide with good English skills and clear communication. The trip itself can be seen as a snorkeling+island hoping, as one visits all three nearby Gili islands. One should keep this in mind. For us this was a plus, as we could see all islands. The diving spots were also very nice: we saw big sea turtles and many colorful corals. The statue spot was too crowded - but that is expected and not the guide’s fault. The underwater pictures and videos the guide made were awesome! Thanks a lot :)

Our guide swam with us, leading the way, making it easier to encounter sea turtles. As a result, we met various sea turtles at every diving spot. We also saw beautiful coral reefs, areas with many fish, and of course, the statues at Gili Meno were wonderful. Thank you.

Both the company and the instructor provided kind guidance via WhatsApp, informing me of the detailed schedule and necessary items.

The guide was incredibly kind and led us very well. Even though I initially booked the wrong location, they carefully checked everything so I could still participate. It's a shame I can't upload the photos because the file size is too large, but everything else was perfect. I think it was actually a good decision not to spend a lot of money on a private tour, haha.

¡Fue una experiencia agradable! Ojalá se hubiera dedicado más tiempo a hacer snorkel y menos tiempo a observar las tortugas bebés en la playa y menos tiempo al almuerzo. El barco estaba bien, pero si eres un pasajero desafortunado en la parte trasera del barco, no está protegido del sol en absoluto y tus cosas se salpicarán de agua, y es aquí donde la mayoría de la gente entra y sale del barco.

We had a very helpful guide. He helped us snorkel and was there the whole time.
