An Amazing Island You Must Visit Before you Die 'Gili-T Island' of the Coast of Bali
Our recent trip to Bali we went on the beautiful Islands of Gili Trawangan it's about 4.5hours by fast boat. You can catch it from a few ports I recommend you purchase your ticket prior so you don't get ripped off by the vultures at the gate waiting for you lol
Either book online through Booking dot com or Expedia.

On the Fast Boat over, the ride is bumpy so be warned

Got to Gili T Island which is the large and most populated of the 3 Gili Islands and the view is sunning

It rained prior to when we came, they have these horse and cart taxis on the island. No petrol powered vehicles are allowed. Kind of weird it's like living in the stone age
Off to the Hotel we stayed at Hotel Villa Bella which is on the populated side of the Island. I highly recommend them it only cost us $50 USD per night very friendly staff and coffee shop 15 meters away for breakfast.

We then went exploding the island. There are plenty of diving schools and restaurants to choose from

I recommend you hire some bikes only cost couple dollars for 24hrs and explode the island it will take you 1 hr to cycle around
There are many restaurants to eat and drink

Hope to come back soon :)
I highly recommend you check out Gili-T Island, Lombok off the coast of Bali. Oh and one last tip when you leave the fast boat trip takes almost 4-5hrs so make sure your flight is late around 8pm or you will miss it. It takes a good 1/2 day to get off the Island get back to the mainland then go to the airport.
Thanks for reading as always please follow and upvote I will do the same

@nggavin good stuff man. Once I arrive in the Phillipines and get settled I will check you out in Thailand and then take a trip out to Bali. Just curious on average what does a villa like that cost to rent for a week/month if you do not mind me asking?
