Arrival at Denpasar airport and transfer to Ubud, a city located in the hills north of Denpasar, in a hilly landscape of green rice fields and ravines. Ubud is famous for its painting school. Despite the exponential tourist development it has experienced in recent years, the city has managed to preserve its tranquility and beauty. The rest of the day is free.

After your breakfast, departure for the rice terraces of Tegallalang. Located north of Ubud, they offer sumptuous panoramas.

Stop at the village of Tampaksiring to visit the temples of Gunung Kawi. This site is surely the most impressive in Bali with the 9 tombs of King Wungsu's family, dug into the cliff.

We take the road to the caldera of Mt Batur (1725m), through a region renowned for its coffee plantations. From Penelokan, we enjoy an exceptional view of the caldera, measuring 14 km long. This imposing size testifies to the tumultuous past of the volcano and a size which once must have exceeded that of the current Agung. Possibility of having lunch in one of the restaurants on the edge of the caldera (meal not included).

Then, we visit the Kehen temple in Bangli. This temple is one of the most revered in Bali. Its plant garden and its temple with eleven “meru” make it a place full of spirituality and traditions.

Return to Ubud in the early evening where you can stroll freely in the village.

Today, traditions and sharing will be in the spotlight. Total immersion in Balinese daily life: cooking, making offerings, dancing, music… In the heart of a Balinese family, let's go to the market to buy the ingredients necessary to prepare the meal.
Then head home, where we will spend the majority of the day exchanging and participating in the different activities of Balinese daily life: making coffee, preparing offerings. We then take part in a cooking class which we then taste.
At the beginning of the afternoon, walk in the middle of the village and the surrounding nature. Return home for a farewell snack with our hosts… A day full of sharing!

After your breakfast, departure for @Goa Gadjah better known as the elephant cave. Dating from the 11th century and built at the crossroads of two rivers, this temple is one of the oldest Balinese archaeological sites.

Then we visit Yeh Pulu, a historical relief telling the ancient life of the Balinese.

Then, it is in the town of Klungkung that we discover the court of justice where the punishments formerly inflicted on outlaws are represented, like threats hanging over the heads of the accused.

We finally reach Sidemen, one of the most beautiful valleys

The morning is devoted to a Balinese walk, through fields and rice fields, towards the Bali Aga village of @Tenganan which has preserved the Balinese culture predating the Javanese influence of the Hindu Majapahit dynasty. To protect their village from the harmful effects of the intrusion of uninitiated people into the cult of Batara Indra, all visitors are welcomed there from noon to nightfall, after which everyone is asked to continue on their way. There was a time when the villagers of Tenganan even swept away the footprints of their visitors to completely erase their arrival.
4 hours of walking

Then, we go to visit the Pura Lempuyan located just above Tirtagangga, in the far east of Bali. An incredibly steep road leads to the start of what can be considered a pilgrimage. 7 temples, 1500 steps to connect them and a view overlooking the sea.

Finally, visit the royal baths of Tirtagangga (the exact translation of which is “The waters of the Ganges”), on the south-eastern flanks of the Agung. Officially known as Tirta Ayu, this complex of freshwater pools was one of the many aquatic palaces built by a king of Karangasem.

The morning is devoted to a lovely hike of around 3 hours around Sidemen, through high altitude plantations and rice fields. During this walk, we pass numerous hamlets, ideal for meeting the local population, and also cross an old suspension bridge. The vegetation is lush and the landscape very exotic.

Free afternoon to enjoy your hotel and its swimming pool in the middle of the rice fields.

This morning, a car from the Speedboat company picks you up from the hotel and takes you to Padangbai port. From there you take the speedboat towards Gili Air. When you arrive at Gili, we advise you to hire a horse cart ("Cidomo") to take you or your luggage to your hotel (not included). Installation at the hotel.

Free evening

Free day. Possibility of going around the island on foot or by bike. A walk that allows you to discover the quietest beaches of the island but also the small restaurants and bars along the water. Equipped with a mask and a snorkel, you can explore the seabed from the beach. In Gili, there are plenty of fish, but not only that. Several turtles, the oldest inhabitants of the island, can also join the party.

The opportunity for a real moment of relaxation.

Departure from the Gili to return to the island of Bali. Once we arrive in Padang Bai, a driver will take us to the South of Bali to enjoy a few seaside days.

Free day at Sanur which is one of the oldest seaside resorts in Bali, but which has retained its charm and refinement. The beaches of Sanur stretch for several kilometers: ideal for a stroll along the water's edge. The main street of Sanur is a gold mine of small shops and good restaurants. Take advantage of your free time as a couple or family to swim in the pool or the sea, discover Balinese massages, stroll along the beach or in the center… Dinner and free evening.
