Worth agreeing on before you meet
Sasak Traditions
The Sasak people of Lombok have a unique culture blending Islam with animist traditions. Rinjani is sacred, and the annual Mulang Pekelem ceremony involves offerings of gold, clothing, and livestock thrown into Segara Anak lake to honour the spirits. Respect the mountain as the Sasak do.
Islamic Culture
Lombok is predominantly Muslim. Dress modestly in villages, covering shoulders and knees. During Ramadan, avoid eating or drinking in public during daylight hours. Mosques broadcast the call to prayer five times daily, including very early morning. Be respectful and keep noise low.
Full detail (itineraries, budgets, neighbourhoods and safety) is in the Mount Rinjani travel guide.
