Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Probably one of the best experience we've had in a trip. I contacted Chris through WhatsApp and he was very helpful in planning the trip. He goes the extra miles to make sure you're making the most out of the trip. At all times we felt very well taken care of. It was like being hosted by an old friend.
We booked the Rinjani tour and snorkeling tour. The Rinjani tour was very tough. Dedi our guide patiently wait for us each time we need to take a break, at the last and toughest leg of the hike, he even helped me carry my backpack.
The snorkeling tour is really the best I've had so far. Chris and his crews, Amir and Riski took us to all the best spots around Lombok and the Gilis, away from the crowd. The corals and sea life we saw was amazing. The most diverse I've seen among other snorkeling trips I've done.
If you want a memorable experience, you should book the tour with Chris. And yes, he will be a friend, more than just a tour guide.

After doing a lot of research around companies for snorkelling in Lombok, my husband and I made the conscious decision to book with Authentic Lombok Tours.
We were NOT disappointed. Chris and his team ( Amir and another guy ) were really accommodating. Chris took us to the best spots where there are barely any tourists.
The whole tour from start to finish was amazing, Chris is really knowledgable and not only did we go and snorkel in the best locations but we were well informed throughout.
I’ve snorkelled in Egypt, Hawaii, Seychelles, Thailand and Australia, Cairns ( GBR ) and I must say I was hugely surprised and amazed by the reef where Chris took us.
We saw and touched turtles, witnessed seahorses, starfish of different colours, and met nemo and his whole family!
Amir guided us in each location and stayed with my husband who was slightly nervous in the open water. Funnily, my husband said he wouldn’t go in the water but as soon as we reached the first spot for snorkelling Chris guided him and pushed him out of his comfort zone. After this, my husband was the first to jump in the water at each location which shocked me!
If you haven’t already thought about booking with Chris, do it now 😃! This is one experience I absolutely won’t forget about. He’s witty, knowledgable, wise and is also known as Papa Chris.

Well how to start, I don’t even know. Words can’t even sum up how amazing this tour was.
I have been on so many snorkeling trips in the past with my wife and have mostly stayed on the boat whilst my wife has gone off to see the corals, I don’t class myself as a confident swimmer in open water, usually stick to a swimming pool.
After having spent 30mins on the boat with Chris, I decided to give it a go, Chris gave me a personal 1-1 lesson on how to breath and different techniques. He also had one of his colleagues personally follow me to make sure I was ok on my first snorkel stop. I was afraid but jumped straight in after following his guidance.
All I can say, it’s the best thing I have done, after the first swim I feel so confident that I swam the rest of the boat stops. I’m so glad we chose to go with Chris, otherwise I would have never have seen so much coral, fishes and turtles. He takes you to the quieter and unique stops and personalizes the trip so much. The stop for food was brilliant also, some of the best Nasi Goreng I have had.
I would highly recommend this trip rather than go with one of the larger groups as Chris also has so much knowledge of the area.

Snorkeling mania tour. If you visit Lombok, its a must in your journey. Chris, Riski and Amar are an amazing team that help you in everything. Its not a standar tour, its just passion about what they do and its a present that they want to share with you all they knowledge about sealife and where to find the most interest places. The whole day was amazing. You can see some different kind of fishes, star fishes,turtles...
Chris is an amazing person, full of kindness and he took care about us all the time. Thanks Chris and his team for share us a fantastic sealife far of the crowded of the famous Gilis. If we want to keep nice places as Lombok, we have to start to pay attention to nice tours like this one and stop to give money to the other tours that kill the nature and dont give you a real experience. Best wishes, Pedro Calvino

I did the best snorkeling trip in all of my Asian travels last week with Chris and his amazing team. Do yourself a favor and go snorkeling there. You get to see amazing corals and wildlife in its purest natural state - far away from all the other touristic snorkeling boats. It was a unique experience!

Oh my word…..what an amazing day from start to finish.
Chris goes out of his way to make this experience unforgettable. Highlight of the holiday so far.
Chris took us the the quieter gilli islands. It was phenomenal, we were the only people snorkelling and saw so many fish.
We were taken to 4 different places. The coral and fish we saw was amazing. We were lucky enough to see two turtles, which was honestly breathtaking. We saw sea horses and so many different types of fish. This is the best snorkelling trip I’ve ever done. Chris is so incredibly friendly and ensures that you have an amazing memorable day. Honestly this is a must do whilst in Lombok.

Chris and his team have been those fantastic tour guides that have genuinely taken care of us during the entire trip. He took us to beautiful sites of the undiscovered lombok island, such as the sendang gile and tiu kelep waterfall, islands such as the gili island, which was pristine clear waters overlooking at the beautiful corals, turtles, seahorses and many other aquatic life. We would definitely recommend Chris and his team if you're planning to visit lombok

I highly recommend the Authentic Lombok tour with Chris and his crew. If you really want to see and experience authentic, unique and amazing Lombok activities /tours , you must contact the super famous , passionate, fun , kind, crazy Chris! (this is not going to be your classic touristic tour) This tour changed my life!! Thanks to Chris for pushing my limits, I was able to conquered my fear and got out of my comfort zone. Without him I would’ve had chance to see amazing coral reefs, fishes, giant turtles and seahorses. We also booked cooking class with Chris and Dewi which I can guarantee you won't be disappointed, not only you will learn to cook and enjoy the amazing food but you will also learn about fruits, vegetables!It's a unique and wonderful opportunity you won't be presented elsewhere in Lombok!

Chris, Riski and Amir are a great team! Great explanations with hunour and careful fitting of snorkels were just the start. Attentive leading and help at just the right time meant we had the best snorkeling experience. All good snorkeling locations! Lunch venue was excellent and additional fruits and snacks were thoughtfully made available. The whole experience came with lots of smiles. Amazing!
