LOMBOK NETWORK
ADVENTURE TEAM
About Our Trek Team
Our trek team is
fully operated by a team of young, energetic people who are
fanatical about keeping intact, while sharing the natural and
cultural environments of the places we visit.
|
Our Philosophy
We deal largely in ecotourism &
adventure travel, but for us adventures are not just the rugged
kind. An adventure can take many forms and need involve little that
is overly strenuous - to us every trip is a voyage of discovery and
hence an adventure. The guiding philosophy behind each is that the
trip be environmentally friendly and sustainable.

|
 |
This means impacting as little as
possible on the peoples and places we visit, always respecting the
distinctiveness and special qualities of each. The way we do it must be
environmentally-friendly as well as economically and physically
efficient. This means we trek, cook, camp and shows you more of the
things with care and attentions. We use mechanized transport when we
have to cover long distances in limited time; even so, we use local
modes of transportation as far as possible to maximize exposure to
the local lifestyles and to get close to the people. |
As a consequence, during the tours there
is a lot of opportunity to learn about and from the indigenous
peoples.
 Transportation
To guarantee the comfort and safety, we
use standard fully air-con vehicles, well trained drivers and
English Speaking Tour Guide during the pick up and transfer service.
You will get answers to all your curiosity during the technical
briefing prior to the trek program execution.
