Ubud & Lombok
 
My wife and I are doing a big trip next year--April 2019. We are visiting Egypt, Jordan, Ubud, Lombok & Hong Kong.
We are all set for Egypt & Jordan but would like some information about Ubud and Lombok.
We will be staying at Alam Shanti in Ubud and Qunci Villas in Lombok.
I would appreciate any information regarding private tour guides for both places.

you have chosen the best hotels!!!

In Lombok it is our experience that leaving the hotel for "sightseeing" is really a waste of time---nothing worth seeing really.

if you look at my trip reports on Bali you will see that there is lots to see there and I suggest hiring our friend Putu to take you around-- his contact info is in my reports.

We will spend part of the winter of 2019 in Egypt, so watch for a trip report.

Hi Bob,

Long time no talk. Thanks for the information.
I'll check out Putu.

One thing to be aware of in Ubud is traffic during core hours. It's a v.popular place, and the centre quickly turns into a traffic jam.
