How is food so cheap in Lombok?

Food in Lombok is affordable due to local sourcing and lower living costs. Traditional markets supply fresh produce, rice, and spices directly from local farms, reducing transportation and storage expenses. Street food stalls and warungs (small family-owned eateries) offer popular dishes like nasi goreng and satay, often priced between 15,000 to 30,000 IDR ($1 to $2). These venues have lower overhead costs compared to larger restaurants, allowing them to offer meals at lower prices.

Additionally, the cost of living in Lombok is generally lower than in major Indonesian cities, contributing to the affordability of dining. Travelers can enjoy authentic local cuisine without straining their budget, while also experiencing the island's rich culinary traditions.

How much does an Uber cost in Lombok?

Uber does not operate in Lombok. Instead, travelers can use local ride-hailing apps like Gojek or Grab. Prices vary based on distance and time, but a typical short ride within a city area might cost around IDR 20,000 to 50,000 ($1.30 to $3.30).

For longer distances, such as rides from the airport to popular destinations like Senggigi or Kuta, expect to pay between IDR 100,000 to 300,000 ($6.60 to $20). Always confirm the fare in the app before booking.

Local taxis are also available and may be a viable alternative; however, it is advisable to negotiate the fare in advance if the taxi does not use a meter.

Can I go to Lombok alone?

Traveling to Lombok solo is quite feasible and safe, provided you take standard precautions. The island offers a range of activities suitable for solo travelers, such as exploring the beaches of Kuta and Senggigi, hiking Mount Rinjani, and visiting the traditional Sasak villages.

For transportation, scooters are a popular choice for getting around, with daily rentals costing around 60,000 IDR ($4). Public ferries and fast boats connect Lombok to neighboring islands like Bali and the Gili Islands.

Dining options vary from local warungs, where meals are typically around 30,000 IDR ($2), to more upscale restaurants.

Tap water is not safe to drink, so it is advisable to use bottled water, which is widely available.

Exercise normal travel safety practices, such as securing your belongings and being cautious with unfamiliar environments.

Bali to Lombok Destination Reviews

KR
Busy but comfortable
Bali to Lombok, Ferry Speedboat, Ekajaya Fast Ferry (Eka Jaya Fast Boat), Mar 17, 2025

The boat trip was OK, but the onboarding experience and the wait at the pier in Pandang Bai were one of the worst travelling experiences ever. The pier has no waiting room, is completely overcrowded, People arriving and leaving squeezing in the very narrow pathway that leads to where the boats dock, few indications to none, we left with one hour delay simply because there was no space in the pear for the boat to dock. Other than that the trip was fine and we arrived in Lombok 30 min delayed,in spite of having left one hour later. We would suggest that operators get together and find ways to make this process more organized, we have to pay 5 K to enter the port area + we paid 10 K per person as village contribution to Pandang Bai, I hope this funds are being used to improve the local community situation and the chaotic pier organisation.

I don’t know if is Ostina fault or 12goasia, but it’s said that the trip takes 1:40 hours until Lombok and took more than 3 hours. So you should change the information that you provide. We enter to the boat on time but we left 30 minutes later. For the check-in process en go to the port everything was good.
