DELUXE | PRIVATE-GUIDED: Escape to paradise and spend your time enjoying the beach and jungle of this famous island hotspot. Split your time between Ubud and Jimbaran to see two very different sides of Bali, all while basking in the island’s tropical climate.


This 9-day, air-inclusive luxury escape to the Island of the Gods offers unparalleled relaxation with plenty of time at leisure, along with immersive experiences that include a Balinese cooking class.

Check into your Ubud hotel and spend your first days in Bali simply unwinding, slowing to the rhythms of Indonesia’s only Hindu island, and exploring the local shops, museums, and restaurants. Take things at your own pace. See the famous terraced rice paddies and explore the pristine rainforest that surrounds the town. Note that unlike many of Bali’s resort areas, Ubud is not a beach town, so your time here is all about enjoying Balinese culture. On your last day here, enjoy a cooking class, buying fresh ingredients alongside the locals at Ubud’s markets, and learning about Balinese cuisine.

Your Bali vacation moves to the beautiful beaches of Jimbaran for four more nights, with more time at leisure to explore this side of the island. This part of your stay includes a half day tour of the local sights including the Royal Temple, the monkey forest of Alas Kedaton, and a Batik making centre where you’ll see one of Bali’s oldest indigenous art forms in action.

Day 7

Full Day Scenic Adventure Tour

This fascinating tour highlights on landscape of Bali with its famous spectacular rice terrace views. We take you to explore Bali through back roads of small villages of Pejaten to see traditional tile home industry. Drive up to Tegal Linggah village to reach the highly venerated temple of Batukaru. Situated on the slope of Mount Batukaru, amidst the serenity of the tropical rain forest, this ancient temple is regarded as one of the Island's most sacred. Afterwards visit the colourful fruit and flower market at Candi Kuning and the 17th century Ulun Danu water temple on the shore of Lake Beratan.

Duration10 Hours
Day 8

Half Day Cliff Temple, Fire Dance and Beach Dinner

Enjoy a pleasant short ride along the hills of Bali's southern peninsula. This area, known as Bukit, offers a landscape and topography unequaled by any other regions of the island. Unlike the majority lush tropical country sides which owed their fertile soils to the volcanoes that dotted the central highlands, this arid terrain-formed by millennia of coral sedimentations is a world of its own. Their beautiful-yet-wild beaches are heaven for surfers. In the corner of this peninsula, perched on a sheer cliff, is a highly venerated Uluwatu temple. A performance of The Ramayana epic-based Kecak Dance with the majestic temple and sunset as its background, will give a climax to this memorable evening. The tour ends up at Jimbaran Beach to enjoy Seafood dinner, served on the beach.
