Lombok International Airport is about 34 km southeast of Mataram city center. After landing, you have three main transportation options from Lombok Airport to Mataram: taxi, private transfer, or bus.
If you value speed and comfort, a Lombok Airport taxi or a pre-booked Lombok Airport transfer is the best option. Both are available 24/7 and provide reliable door-to-door services, allowing you to quickly reach your accommodation in the city without any additional stops.
For budget-conscious travelers, the DAMRI bus can be a good value-for-money alternative as it’s the cheapest option. Although the route is direct, you will most probably need additional transport to reach your end destination, as the bus terminal is far from the city center. Note that there is no Lombok Airport to Mataram train, so the bus is your only option if you want to use public transport.
