Indonesia · 10 Days / 9 Nights · From $915 AUD
Tone it down then turn it up on this Balinese adventure. Find peace, relaxation and adventure with a 10-day trip around Bali and the Gili Islands. Starting in the patchouli-infused jungles of Ubud, you'll explore rice paddies, cycle past temples and climb Mt Batur for sunrise. Cross to laid-back Candidasa, then island-hop to the turquoise waters of Gili Trawangan for snorkelling, cycling and beach days. Finish in buzzy Seminyak with a street food tasting and one last night by the beach. Travel with a local leader, max 16 like-minded 18–35s, and tick off Bali's bucket-list spots with all the logistics sorted.
Selamat datang! Welcome to Bali. Make your way from Denpasar Airport to your guesthouse in Ubud, the patchouli-infused cultural heart of the island. Your tour leader hosts a welcome meeting in the evening to brief the group on the days ahead. If you arrive early, wander through the Ubud Monkey Forest, grab a smoothie bowl at a local cafe or browse the artisan markets.
Accommodation: Guesthouse · Meals: None included
Spend the day exploring the sacred and the scenic. Visit Tirta Empul Water Temple — a sacred Hindu purification site fed by holy springs — and the iconic Tegalalang Rice Terraces, a cascading valley of emerald paddies. Free afternoon — optional add-ons: Ubud cooking class, Saraswati Temple Lotus Garden, Bali cycling tour or whitewater rafting on the Ayung River.
Meals: Breakfast
Wake up at 3 am for the highlight of the trip — a guided sunrise climb of Mt Batur, an active volcano on Bali's central highlands. The climb takes around two hours and requires a good level of fitness. Reach the summit just before dawn, watch the sun rise over the caldera, then descend for a well-earned breakfast. Afternoon at your Mt Batur glamping stay — soak in the optional hot springs or kick back with a book by the lake.
Accommodation: Glamping · Meals: Breakfast
Travel by private minibus to Candidasa, a sleepy beachside village on Bali's east coast. Check into your hotel and spend the afternoon swimming, snorkelling or just kicking back with a cocktail at a beachside warung. Your leader can point you to optional sunset spots or evening seafood feasts on the sand.
Meals: Breakfast
Transfer to Padang Bai and board a fast boat across to Gili Trawangan — a tiny car-free island ringed by white sand and turquoise reef. Settle into your hotel, grab your included bike rental (3 days), then join your leader for an orientation cycling tour around Gili T's quieter back lanes, hidden bays and best snorkel spots.
Meals: Breakfast
A free day to enjoy the Gilis your way. Cycle around the island, sunbake on the beach or jump in the water — optional add-ons include snorkelling with sea turtles, Gili Air snorkelling trip, a freediving course or just kicking back with a coconut on the sand. Sunset on the west side is a must.
Meals: Breakfast
Another full day on the Gilis. Hop across to Gili Air or Gili Meno by local boat, take a glass-bottom boat snorkel tour, dive with reef sharks or just hammock-hop with a book and a cocktail. Bali's island life at its best.
