Begin your tour at the Narmada Summer Palace, an architectural masterpiece constructed in 1718 as a retreat for royalty. Continue to the awe-inspiring Sembalun Valley, a lush expanse cradled by the majestic Mount Rinjani and renowned as the primary departure point for ascents of the peak. Here, savor freshly picked strawberries at a local plantation and gain insights into the natural wonders of Rinjani National Park, home to Indonesia’s second-highest mountain.
