Trip Overview
With the perfect combo of beach and party time, our Bali Intro tour is a little slice of heaven. Explore white sand beaches and snorkel over rainbow-coloured reefs by day and sip cocktails in swanky beach clubs and dance under the stars by night. We’ll take you to all of Bali’s best bits, from boho Canggu and laid-back Lovina to leafy Ubud and the postcard-perfect Gili Islands. You’ll feed wild monkeys, see dolphins in the wild, learn to surf, hike up a volcano for sunrise and explore tropical islands by bike.

Day 1: Denpasar to Canggu
Well hello Bali! Jet into Denpasar Airport where you'll be transferred to our stylish guesthouse, just a stone's throw from Canggu's golden sands. Hit the beach or relax by the pool before meeting the rest of your group tonight and heading out for drinks at one of the laid-back beach bars.
Day 2: Temples & beach clubs
Channel your spiritual side this morning with a visit to a stunning local temple. Experience a Bahasa Indonesian lesson and learn to make a Canang Sari. Take in ocean views and wander through peaceful gardens before heading back to the hotel for another date with the beach. Tonight, party the night away in one of Canggu's epic beach clubs.
Day 3: Canggu surf lesson
One of the world's best surfing destinations, there's no better place to learn to surf than Canggu. Take a lesson in riding the rollers with our local Balinese instructors and spend the rest of the day putting your new skills into practice in the turquoise sea.
Day 4: Canggu to Lovina
Head north today to the sleepy fishing village of Lovina with a stop en route at two of Bali's most amazing ancient temples and an incredible waterfall where we'll take a dip. Then drop your bags in our luxury private villa before diving into the infinity pool.
Day 5: Lovina dolphins & local culture
Enjoy breakfast on the beach before boarding our traditional outrigger boat for a dolphin-spotting adventure! Watching them play in the waves is an experience you'll never forget. Back on dry land, pay a visit to a local home for a lesson in Balinese basket weaving and lunch with your hosts.
Day 6: Lovina to the Gili Islands
