The type of E-Rinjani user
There are 2 types of users in e-Rinjani which have their advantages and disadvantages, Organizations and Individuals.
Organization-user is those who run businesses on Mount Rinjani (Trekking Organiser) such as providing trekking packages which include guide services, porters, logistics, and so on. This type of user was created and inaugurated by BTNGR for the welfare of human resources in the Mount Rinjani National Park area. The advantage of this user is that they can buy any number of entry tickets for their clients as long as the climbing quota is still there (400 climbers per day for each entrance), but you have to pay more for trekking if assisted by this user.
Individual-user are those who do not use the services of a Trekking Organizer and buy entrance tickets independently, however these users can only purchase tickets for themselves, they cannot do it for others.

However, this price will change if the duration of your hike includes holidays, which is IDR 225,000 per day.
