9 days • 8 nights • Indonesia
Green days among Ubud's rice terraces and forests, then the cliffs of Nusa Penida and the calm beaches of Nusa Dua.
A Bali tour is a dream for many newlyweds and families: a green Indonesian island that brings rice terraces, volcanoes, waterfalls and beaches together in one place. The 9-day Bali tour begins with three nights in Ubud, the green heart of the island, then five nights on the south coast with a boat trip to Nusa Penida island. Bali is famous for its private villas with pools set in nature, its quiet resorts on the Indian Ocean, and the arts and crafts markets of Ubud.
We chose one coherent route within Bali instead of hopping between Indonesian islands, so you spend more time enjoying yourself and less time on the road. Flights from Istanbul to Bali International Airport are available, and their duration varies by route and airline. If you like the cool mountain atmosphere of Puncak and Bandung, you can add them before Bali in a longer program. We pace the tours comfortably to suit newlyweds and families alike.
Pick-up at Bali International Airport (Denpasar) and drive to Ubud, about an hour and a half depending on traffic. Check in at a villa or hotel among the trees, then enjoy a quiet evening to rest after the long journey.
We start with the Tegallalang rice terraces in the morning, when the light is at its best, and you can try the swing overlooking the valley (optional). Then we visit the Monkey Forest, Ubud Palace and the arts and crafts market. The evening is free in Ubud's cafés and restaurants.
On the way we visit a coffee and spice plantation to taste Balinese coffee, then drive up to Kintamani for a wide view of Mount Batur and its volcanic lake, with lunch overlooking the scenery. On the way back we visit Tirta Empul Temple, known for its spring waters, then return to Ubud.
We leave Ubud for the Bedugul highlands and visit Ulun Danu Beratan Temple, which seems to float on the lake, and stop at the famous Handara Gate. In the afternoon we head to Tanah Lot Temple to watch the sunset over the sea rock, then transfer to our hotel in the south.
We set off by speedboat from Sanur to Nusa Penida island, a short trip of about 45 minutes. We visit the famous Kelingking Beach viewpoint, Broken Beach with its rock arch, and the natural Angel's Billabong. We return to Bali in the afternoon.
A flexible day on the calm beaches of Nusa Dua. For adventure lovers, nearby Tanjung Benoa offers water sports such as parasailing, banana boat rides and snorkeling (optional), or you can relax with a traditional Balinese spa session.
The morning is free at the resort. In the afternoon we visit Uluwatu Temple, built on the edge of a steep cliff above the Indian Ocean, and watch the traditional Kecak dance at sunset. We finish with a seafood dinner on the sand of Jimbaran Bay.
A free day to relax at the resort or shop in Seminyak and Kuta, with local boutiques and seaside cafés. On request, we can arrange a visit to Garuda Wisnu Kencana Cultural Park or another boat trip.
A last breakfast at the resort and free time depending on your flight, then transfer to Bali International Airport for your return flight to Istanbul.
