Meet the Founder: Andi’s Story
Every great journey starts with a single step. For our founder, Andi, those steps began more than a decade ago on the rugged trails of Mount Rinjani.
Born and raised in the shadow of the volcano, Andi started his career from the absolute ground up—first as a mountain porter carrying heavy loads, and later as a certified, licensed Rinjani guide. Having stood on the 3,726-meter summit hundreds of times, he didn't just learn the trails; he learned exactly what international trekkers need to feel safe, comfortable, and inspired.
Driven by a passion to showcase Lombok’s beauty and a vision to create fair, sustainable jobs for his fellow villager brothers, Andi founded Lombok Rinjani Guide. Today, he still personally oversees the team, ensuring that every tent pitched, every meal cooked, and every step you take reflects the warmth and safety of true Lombok hospitality.
"Rinjani is not just a mountain to us; it is our home. When you trek with us, you are not just a client—you are part of our family."— Andi, Founder of Lombok Rinjani Guide

This ensures you get fair local pricing while directly supporting the local community, our porters, and their families.
Direct Local Booking
No third-party agents or outside middlemen. Deal directly with our local Senaru team for transparent communication.
Fair Local Pricing
