Find a Travel Companion
in Lombok
Pristine white-sand beaches, the mighty Mount Rinjani volcano, and authentic Sasak culture. Bali's quieter, wilder neighbour waiting to be discovered.
Travel better in Lombok with the right person
Split costs
A solo traveller in Lombok spends about ~$20–50 USD a day. Accommodation, transport, guided tours and day trips all cost less split two ways.
Stay safer
A travel companion means someone knows your plans, can help navigate emergencies, and makes you less of a target in unfamiliar areas of Lombok.
Go deeper
The best experiences in Lombok (the off-menu restaurant, the dawn hike, the local's favourite spot) are found with a curious companion, not a guidebook.
Matched by style
Roammate filters by travel pace, budget range, and interests, so you connect with someone genuinely compatible, not just whoever's in the same hostel dorm.
Meeting someone new in Lombok
Agreeing to travel with someone you met online is a real decision. Here is what sits between matching and meeting.
Verified profiles
Travellers can verify their identity with a government-ID and liveness check, and verified accounts carry a badge you can filter on.

Report and block
If someone makes you uncomfortable, report or block them at any point, before or after you have arranged anything.
Emergency SOS
Add emergency contacts before you travel. If something goes wrong in Lombok, raise an alert to them from inside the app.

Worth agreeing on before you meet
Respect Sasak Culture
Lombok is predominantly Muslim Sasak, so dress modestly when visiting villages and mosques. Cover shoulders and knees. Remove shoes before entering homes. Ask permission before photographing people, especially in traditional villages.
Leave No Trace
Pack out all rubbish, especially on beaches and waterfall trails. Lombok's natural beauty is its greatest asset and plastic waste is a growing problem. Bring a reusable water bottle and refuse single-use plastics where possible.
Full detail (itineraries, budgets, neighbourhoods and safety) is in the Lombok travel guide.
