Budget-friendly 4-day itinerary in Gili T

In this blog post, I’m gonna talk about the perfect budget-friendly 4-day itinerary in Gili T.

The Gili Islands are comprised of 3 small islands, Gili Trawangan (or Gili T), Gili Meno, and Gili Air. The Gili islands are a little piece of paradise. The sunrises are magical, you’ll make lots of sea turtle friends, you can party pretty much EVERY night, and you won’t want to leave. Although Gili Trawangan (or Gili T) is mostly known for being a party island, there’s so much more Gili T has to offer.

Because Gili T is a small island, you don’t need to spend too many days to do all the cool things. In 3 to 4 days you’ll get to see a lot of the island and experience some of the best things Gili T has to offer. Below, I created the perfect 4-day itinerary for Gili T, whether you’re coming from Bali or Lombok. So be sure to add this itinerary to your travel plans. 

Without further ado, here is the perfect 4-day itinerary in Gili T

Quick tips:

🧳 Pack lose and comfy clothes since Gili T has all-year-long tropical weather (meaning it’s always hot and humid)

💸 Take cash out at a local ATM (some places don’t take credit/debit cards)

🔌 Don’t forget to bring an international charger converter for your electronics

📲 Get a SIM card at the airport (in Bali or Lombok) or at a local market to always have phone service and not depend on WiFi. Just don’t forget to unlock your phone before you leave though.
