Private Walking Tour of Mataram

After being picked up from your hotel at the scheduled time, you'll begin your guided walking tour of Lombok's main city. Learn about the history of the island, from being taken over by the Balinese in the 17th century to being under Dutch control.

You'll visit a local market to experience typical daily life in Lombok, before exploring the Mayura Water Palace.

Built in the 18th century by Balinese royalty, Mayura was the site of battles between the Balinese and the Dutch in 1894.

Next, head to Taman Narmada, a park created by the 18th century King of Mataram to resemble the beauty of Mount Rinjani.

For the last stop, visit Pura Lingsar, a temple complex located among rice paddy fields, reflecting the island's cultural heritage, a fusion of Hinduism and Islam, and housing temples for both religions.
