-Welcome to Bali - you’re on island time now! After landing at Ngurah Rai International Airport, you’ll be overcome with a feeling of relaxation yet excitement for all of the Bali bliss that is to come. Once you’ve met your new Bali BFFs, you’ll head over to Seminyak where you’ll check into your resort, which boasts a prime location on the beach and is adorned with Bali’s best greenery.
-After checking in, take the afternoon as an opportunity to explore your Bali beach surroundings or simply kick up your feet.
-Once the sun retreats into the sky, you’ll join your group for a welcome dinner at the hotel, where you’ll get to try classic Indonesian flavor profiles while toasting to the week ahead. But just you wait - there’s tons more to uncover in Bali’s shores, waters, and more.
-Enjoy a breakfast fit for foodies at the resort before putting your helmets on and riding scooters to Bali’s grand rice terraces, flowing waterfalls, and soaring swings.
-Pull your scooter over to embark on your first stop, the Tirta Empul Temple. This temple brings locals and travelers into its spiritual grounds and invites them to take part in a centuries-old cleansing ritual that nourishes the mind, body, and spirit.
-Hop on your scooter for a second time to visit the Tegalalang Rice Terrace where you’ll immediately have your breath taken aware by the vibrant green nature and intricate details that compose the tiered rice terraces. For those looking to fly high above the jungle, the Bali swing offers the chance to do so while grabbing the obligatory ‘gram shot.
-Hop in your fueled-up scooter to fuel up your belly at Cretya Ubud, a rice-terrace inspired restaurant that’s dotted with infinity pools.
-The last stop of the day is Ulu Petanu Waterfall situated in a jungle oasis. Wade into its refreshing waters and admire its grandeur.
-Upon returning to the resort, the rest of the day is yours to grab by the horns and do as you wish.
-Begin your day with breakfast at the resort before the day full of Bali eats and shopping retreats commences.
-Get your taste buds ready for a one-of-a-kind Balinese cooking class, where a local chef will take you on a culinary exploration of Southeast Asian flavors and recipes that’ll be sure to inspire recreations at home. Admire your work when you feast on what you created in the kitchen for lunch.
-Then, dive into the intricate wares, woven bags, and colorful jewelry that fill the shops of Ubud Market. Take a piece of Bali with you back home by picking up a fashionable bag or exquisite silver jewelry.
-As the day wraps up, cozy up and enjoy a beachfront cinema night at Times Beach Warung - complete the stars above you and the sounds of waves lapping nearby.
-Take a moment to eat breakfast at the resort, as you’ll soon be whisked away on an island journey to Bali’s cherished Nusa Penida.

-After seeing the food chain in action, it’s time to grab your own food as you fuel up with an island lunch at a local restaurant.
-You’ll then head to see one of Bali’s most iconic views that’s located at Kelingking Beach, a cliff where the unique rock formations resemble a T-Rex and where you can stare into the ocean blues. After the ocean views leave you in a magical trance, you’ll head to Broken Beach, which is known for its large pool and natural arch, which resembles a broken section of the coast. The last island stop on your journey is Angel’s Billabong, a dreamy, natural infinity pool.
-When the sun starts to retreat on the horizon, you’ll journey back to the mainland to return to our resort with the spirit of the island within you.
-Start your day off on the right foot with a breezy breakfast at the hotel as you’ll soon be in for a (gentle) giant treat. Head to a local elephant where you’ll get to see these magnificent mammals in a natural setting, and learn about their lives in an ethical manner. You’ll be sure to hold these elephant-filled memories close to you.
-After lunch at the elephant park, you’ll head back to the resort for time to rest up before the night’s finale.

-After scootering, snorkeling, and shopping your way around Bali, today is all about rest and tapping into your inner Zen. Wake up fresh with breakfast at the hotel and then close your eyes and relax into a calming 60-minute massage at the resort’s spa.
-You’ll then get to savor lunch at the resort before having the afternoon to roam freely and cross off other activities on your Bali bucket list.
-As evening approaches you’ll gather for a farewell dinner at the resort to reflect on sun-filled experiences and friendships formed over island adventures.
