How we can helpWhat is h·ati h·ati?
h·ati h·ati is a travel studio for people visiting Lombok. We help independent travellers make informed decisions before and during their trip.
h·ati h·ati was founded by someone who first arrived in Lombok as a traveller and is run day to day by a local team who grew up on the island. We work with drivers, guides, hosts and suppliers we know personally and would send a friend to.
h·ati h·ati is part of The Untravelist, an independent editorial travel platform launching in 2026.
Featured in Lonely Planet Italia among the local outfits that help travellers get to know Lombok beyond the usual tourist offerings.
A different way to plan a trip
Independent travel gives you freedom. It also means making dozens of decisions along the way. Where to stay, how to get around, which places are worth the effort and who to book with.
Some travellers enjoy that research. Others would rather spend less time comparing options and more time on the island. Many start out enjoying it and reach a point where they want a second opinion or a helping hand.
Most of Lombok's experiences aren't difficult to find. Knowing which ones are worth your time is. Different sources have different motivations, which can make it hard to know which advice to trust.
h·ati h·ati works differently. Because our advice is paid for by travellers rather than by the places we recommend, we can suggest what fits your trip instead of what serves a commercial arrangement. The people and businesses we recommend keep more of what they earn and this is our way of making tourism in Lombok benefit the people who make it possible.
