This
will be our 7th trip to Bali and April is the perfect time of
year to enjoy the beginning of the dry season, offering warm,
sunny weather with significantly less rain, making it an excellent
time to visit.
You will love this country,
the people, our tours and this hotel. Bali is not only a beautiful place with it’s greenery, gardens, palaces,
beaches and terraced rice fields, it is the peaceful people
who will win your heart and have been bringing people here for
years. It is voted by the readers of all major travel
magazines as the most enchanting travel and holiday destination
in the whole world. Beautifully dressed women walkproudly
through rice fields and forests carrying offerings on their
heads to the next temple. Gods and spirits have been an important
part of Bali’s daily life for hundreds of years. Gunung Agung – Bali’s
holy mountain – is internationally regarded as one of the eight
“Chakra” points of the world.
There are an abundance of interesting
tours and activities to be had on this trip to Bali that will keep each day interesting. Temples,
volcanoes, forests with monkeys, snorkeling, river
rafting (one of the best!), scuba
diving with giant manta rays, ATV's, going to an elephant
park, experiencing a Balinese dance show, horseback riding on
the beach, cruise to nearby Nusa
Penida and Nusa Lembongan islands off the South-East
coast are just some of the many things to do and see in Bali. All of our tours are great (see link below for more details and the itinerary).
Or, just relax, and we’ve got the perfect hotel to do that at
and hence the “luxury” part of this headline.
With this trip we will be splitting
up our stays with 4-nights in Ubud to enjoy the amazing nature
and cultural tours in this area and 6-nights in Nusa Dua to
enjoy more of the water related and island hopping activities.
In Ubud we will be staying at the Kappa
Senses 5-star luxury resort. In Nusa Dua we will be
staying at the 5-star
Conrad hotel
with
it's amazing pool, fabulous manicured lawns, frangipani-perfumed
gardens and cascading waterfalls.
One of the other nice things
about Bali is it’s inexpensive. You can get a car and driver to take you around
for a full day for less than $50! Food, drinks, massages,
cool clothes and souvenirs are a bargain! We'll have 10-nights
to tour and relax. Cost includes hotel (double occupancy), 5-tours,
daily breakfast and all ground transportation.
As of this posting we are still waiting to confirm our group air. Check
back in the weeks to come.
