Bali Adventure

Welcome to Bali! An arrival transfer is included today from the airport, and you'll be meeting your trip leader and group for the first time this evening. Then we'll get to know each other better over dinner, getting excited about all the adventures to come!

You've been meaning to master those surfing skills for a while now, and now's your chance! Our expert instructors will have you out on the waves in no time as part of this beginner-friendly surf lesson. Afterwards, you're completely free to chill on the beach or explore the best of Canggu's brunch spots and beach clubs with your new mates.

This morning we're heading to Ubud, the cultural heart of Bali. First up is the world-famous Tegallalang Rice Terraces, renowned for their bright emerald fields and tropical palm trees. Then it's time for Cretya Pool Bar, where you can dip into the infinity pools and grab a smoothie bowl or cocktails. Later on, we'll visit a local coffee plantation for a traditional taste-testing. Final stop? Our lakeside hotel overlooking Mount Batur!

They say the early bird gets the best pictures, and trust us, it's worth it! We'll trek to the top of Mount Batur in perfect timing for one of the most magical sunrises of your life. Then it's time to unwind in steamy hot springs. Our final stop is Ubud, with a free evening ahead for you to rest, relax or explore the local nightlife.

No trip to Ubud is complete without exploring the Sacred Monkey Forest, home to over a thousand of these cheeky animals and ancient ruins hidden deep in the jungle. Just as breathtaking is Kanto Lampo Waterfall, a scenic nature spot where you can swim around and listen to nature. This evening is all yours to watch the sunset over cocktails with your mates, or head out and explore nearby locations like the Campuhan Ridge Walk.

Island paradise awaits. We'll arrive at the golden shores of Gili Trawangan (called "Gili T" for short) after an early morning journey. Palm-fringed beaches and bright turquoise waters are around every corner as we take a bicycle ride along the coast. Our next hotel is right by the sea and the dreamiest sunsets on the island. It's also a short distance away from the legendary nightlife of Gili T!

Get ready to set sail on an island-hopping tour around all 3 Gili islands, with snorkelling included. Swim around in the crystal-clear ocean and keep your eyes peeled for underwater statues and tropical marine life, including sea turtles!

Enjoy another free day in Gili T to chill out and explore the beach clubs. You can join us with an included a visit to a horse sanctuary today. Here you can take the horses for walks along the beach, as well as feed and groom them. As part of our visit, we'll learn all about the fantastic work being done by the local staff to raise awareness for animals and ethical working conditions. Later on, it's time to celebrate our final night out in Gili T together!

Gili Trawangan has been a dream come true, and even more adventure awaits in Nusa Penida as we take a fast boat from island to island. Nusa Penida is famed for its insane viewpoints, and what better way to kickstart our arrival than at Cactus Beach Club? From sunset views to delicious cocktails, DJ music and diamond-shaped pools, we've just arrived in paradise. Get ready for the time of your life!

Today we're exploring Nusa Penida's stunning sister island, Nusa Lembongan. We'll discover a whole new world underwater as we visit the island's vibrant snorkelling spots (maybe we'll even see some friendly giant manta rays!). The Mangrove River forest and viewpoints like Devil's Tears are just some of the sights you'll see today, before we finish the day at one of the island's most beautiful stretches of sand, Dream Beach... Yep, it lives up to the name!

Our journey continues to Uluwatu today, as we take a speedboat ride back across to Bali, and transfer on to Uluwatu. The rest of the day is all yours to soak in the views by the infinity pool, treat yourself at the spa or hang out with your friends at the rooftop bar and restaurant.

We'll fall in love with everything Uluwatu has to offer today. Start the morning admiring the ocean views at Jagged Rock, before we visit one of Bali's most sacred landmarks, Uluwatu Temple. As we arrive at Melasti Beach for sunset, we'll witness the traditional Kecak Dance and fire show. This is a once-in-a-lifetime experience that you will never forget!

Enjoy a leisurely morning to relax at the hotel or check out any nearby attractions. Later, we'll make our way to the sandy stretches of Seminyak. An incredible night out is never far away here, and you can find everything from shopping to restaurants and the best of Bali's beach clubs!

With so much to see and do, today is your chance to explore Seminyak entirely at your own pace. Feel free to join an optional cooking class, spend the day hopping between beach clubs or unwind with a yoga class. Then it's almost time to say goodbye, but not before one last group dinner and night out together to celebrate all the memories made!

It's been the adventure of a lifetime exploring Bali together! You are welcome to depart at any time in the morning after breakfast. Your trip leader can organise an easy return airport transfer.
