So, you\u2019re thinking of Indonesia for your next big trip? That\u2019s not just a holiday plan; that\u2019s the start of a proper adventure. <a href=\"https:\/\/indonesia.travel\/gb\/en\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Indonesia<\/strong><\/a> isn&#8217;t just one place; it&#8217;s a magnificent, sprawling, and sometimes chaotic collection of over 17,000 islands scattered across the equator. It\u2019s a place of fire-breathing volcanoes, ancient temples, real-life dragons, and some of the most vibrant underwater worlds on the planet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It is, in a word, epic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But an epic trip needs a bit of smart planning. I learned that the hard way on my first island-hopping trip there. I was on a slightly rickety local ferry bouncing between two islands near Lombok. The view was incredible, but I had a nagging worry. I needed to confirm our booking at the guesthouse on the next island, but my local SIM card had completely lost its signal the moment we left the harbour. I felt properly cut off, floating in the middle of the sea with no way of knowing if we had a bed for the night.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It taught me a valuable lesson: for a trip this sprawling, you need a solid, reliable plan for staying connected. So, I want to share my personal hit list of seven absolutely breathtaking spots in Indonesia, and then I\u2019ll let you in on the secret to exploring them without a single moment of that \u2018oh crikey, I\u2019ve got no signal\u2019 panic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_81 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-grey ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<div class=\"ez-toc-title-container\">\n<p class=\"ez-toc-title\" style=\"cursor:inherit\">Table of Contents<\/p>\n<span class=\"ez-toc-title-toggle\"><a href=\"#\" class=\"ez-toc-pull-right ez-toc-btn ez-toc-btn-xs ez-toc-btn-default ez-toc-toggle\" aria-label=\"Toggle Table of Content\"><span class=\"ez-toc-js-icon-con\"><span class=\"\"><span class=\"eztoc-hide\" style=\"display:none;\">Toggle<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-icon-toggle-span\"><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"list-377408\" width=\"20px\" height=\"20px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\"><path d=\"M6 6H4v2h2V6zm14 0H8v2h12V6zM4 11h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2zM4 16h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2z\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" class=\"arrow-unsorted-368013\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"10px\" height=\"10px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.2\" baseProfile=\"tiny\"><path d=\"M18.2 9.3l-6.2-6.3-6.2 6.3c-.2.2-.3.4-.3.7s.1.5.3.7c.2.2.4.3.7.3h11c.3 0 .5-.1.7-.3.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7zM5.8 14.7l6.2 6.3 6.2-6.3c.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7c-.2-.2-.4-.3-.7-.3h-11c-.3 0-.5.1-.7.3-.2.2-.3.5-.3.7s.1.5.3.7z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a><\/span><\/div>\n<nav><ul class='ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1 ' ><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"https:\/\/commbitz.com\/blogs\/best-travel-esim-7-amazing-indonesia-places\/#My_Ultimate_Indonesian_Hit_List\" >My Ultimate Indonesian Hit List<\/a><ul class='ez-toc-list-level-3' ><li class='ez-toc-heading-level-3'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-2\" href=\"https:\/\/commbitz.com\/blogs\/best-travel-esim-7-amazing-indonesia-places\/#1_The_Gili_Islands_Lombok\" >1.

It\u2019s more like a scrapbook of my favourite, can&#8217;t-miss experiences from across this incredible archipelago.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1_The_Gili_Islands_Lombok\"><\/span>1. The Gili Islands, Lombok <span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Just off the coast of Lombok are three tiny coral islands that are the very definition of paradise. There are no cars or motorbikes here, just push bikes and little horse-drawn carts called cidomos. Gili Trawangan (Gili T) is the biggest and liveliest, with a great buzz. Gili Meno is the quiet, romantic one. And Gili Air is the perfect mix of the two. The best part? You can just grab a snorkel and mask, walk into the turquoise water, and swim with giant sea turtles right off the beach. It&#8217;s magical.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Komodo_National_Park\"><\/span>2. Komodo National Park <span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Yes, there be dragons here. And seeing a three-metre-long Komodo dragon lumbering across a dusty track in its natural habitat is a proper, heart-in-your-mouth moment. But the park is so much more than that. The landscape is rugged and prehistoric, with sweeping savannahs and dramatic hills. You\u2019ll visit the famous Pink Beach, and the snorkelling and diving here are out of this world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_The_Temples_of_Yogyakarta_Java\"><\/span>3. The Temples of Yogyakarta, Java <span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For a dose of culture and history, you have to visit Yogyakarta in central Java. This is the gateway to two of the most incredible temple complexes on Earth. You need to wake up before dawn to watch the sunrise over Borobudur, the world\u2019s largest Buddhist temple. As the mist clears and the sun illuminates the hundreds of Buddha statues, it\u2019s a genuinely spiritual experience. Nearby is Prambanan, a stunning collection of towering Hindu temples dedicated to Shiva. 7 Breathtaking Places in Indonesia and Our Pick for the Best Travel eSIM<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4_Mount_Bromo_Java\"><\/span>4. Mount Bromo, Java <span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Also on Java is one of the most epic volcano experiences you can have. Your day starts at a ridiculous hour, bumping along in a 4&#215;4 in the pitch black to a viewpoint. You wait in the freezing cold, huddled with other travellers. And then, as the sun begins to rise, it reveals a breathtaking, otherworldly landscape: a vast \u2018Sea of Sand\u2019 with the smoking crater of Mount Bromo in the middle. It\u2019s absolutely worth the early start.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5_The_Rice_Terraces_of_Ubud_Bali\"><\/span>5. The Rice Terraces of Ubud, Bali <span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Of course, we have to talk about Bali. While some parts are very busy, the heart of the island, around Ubud, is still incredibly beautiful. The Tegalalang Rice Terraces are an iconic sight \u2013 a valley of the most impossibly vibrant green, with rice paddies cascading down the hillside. It\u2019s a place to find a bit of zen. Breathtaking Places in Indonesia and Our Pick for the Best Travel eSIM And if you\u2019re looking for the best hotels in bali, this is where you&#8217;ll find those stunning jungle resorts with infinity pools overlooking the valleys.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"6_The_Nusa_Islands_Bali\"><\/span>6. The Nusa Islands, Bali <span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Just a short boat ride from Bali are three smaller islands that feel a bit more rugged and adventurous. Nusa Penida is the star, with its dramatic coastline and the famous Kelingking Beach, which looks like a T-Rex. It\u2019s a proper Instagram hotspot for a reason. The water here is a shade of blue you won\u2019t believe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"7_Raja_Ampat_West_Papua\"><\/span>7. Raja Ampat, West Papua <span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Breathtaking Places in Indonesia and Our Pick for the Best Travel eSIM This one is for the true adventurers. Raja Ampat is way out east, and it\u2019s not the easiest or cheapest place to get to. But your reward is what many consider to be the most biodiverse marine environment on the planet. It is, quite simply, the best diving and snorkelling in the world. It\u2019s a proper, off-the-grid paradise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_Secret_to_a_Seamless_Island-Hopping_Adventure\"><\/span>The Secret to a Seamless Island-Hopping Adventure<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So, you\u2019re hopping from a volcano on Java to a remote island in Komodo. How on earth do you stay connected across all these different places? The old way was a nightmare. You\u2019d have to buy a new physical SIM card on every other island, hoping it would have a decent signal. A proper faff.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is where the<strong> <\/strong>Best Travel eSIM<strong> <\/strong>comes into its own. An eSIM is a digital SIM that\u2019s already in your phone. You just download a data plan to it. The beauty of it for a trip like this is that you can get one plan that covers the whole of Indonesia. It automatically connects to the best local network available, which is a massive advantage when you\u2019re in remote areas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"My_Pick_for_the_Best_Travel_eSIM\"><\/span>My Pick for the Best Travel eSIM<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Alright, so which one do I use? There are a few out there, but for my money, the one that\u2019s been consistently brilliant is <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/commbitz.com\/asia-mobile-esim-plans\">Commbitz<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Their website is clean and doesn&#8217;t feel like it\u2019s trying to confuse you with tech-speak. You can see their Indonesia plans, pick one based on how long you\u2019re going for, pay in pounds, and you\u2019re sorted. They email you a QR code, you scan it before you leave the UK, and the job\u2019s a good\u2019un.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The relief of getting off a boat at a tiny Gili island and seeing that 4G signal pop up instantly is just brilliant. It meant I could message our next guesthouse to confirm our arrival or look up near by attractions and the best place to eat. It just takes all the stress out of the logistics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Ready_for_the_Adventure_of_a_Lifetime\"><\/span>Ready for the Adventure of a Lifetime?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">7 Breathtaking Places in Indonesia and Our Pick for the Best Travel eSIM is a country that will challenge you, surprise you, and reward you in equal measure. It\u2019s a place for adventurers. Don\u2019t let a little thing like staying connected cause you any stress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Do the smart prep, get the right gear \u2013 and that includes the Best Travel eSIM \u2013 and then just go.
