Summary

This is Bali beyond the brochure. In just nine days, you’ll ride Canggu’s iconic waves, trek up a volcano in the dark to watch the sun rise, and slow things down with a soul-soaking stay in a traditional village. Learn to make Balinese offerings, cycle past rice paddies, and dig into Ubud’s temples, waterfalls, and artsy buzz on your own time. Whether you’re chasing thrills or clarity (or both), this trip hits different — in all the right ways.

  • Day 1

    Canggu

Rent a board to keep practicing, relax on the beach or grab a beer at a cute warung, local Indonesian restaurant.

  • Day 3

    Canggu/Bulian

    Take a break from Bali's wild side and head north to Bulian. Here we can connect will locals, slow down and enjoy Bali's famed rice terraces. On the way up, we'll stop at the breathtaking Ulundanu Temple, sitting on the edge of Lake Beratan. Continue to Bulian where we'll be welcomed with a drink and lunch.

  • Day 6

    Kintamani/Ubud

    Rise and shine as we are getting after it today! Waking well before the sun, we'll start our 2 hour trek to reach the Mt Batur summit in time to enjoy an absolutely stunning sunrise. And what's a picturesque sunrise without a lil picnic breakfast, amirite? With the sun finally up, we'll hike back down for a proper breakfast and a well-deserved hot spring soak. Then it's goodbye Kintamani and hello Ubud! On the way, we'll stop at the tour operator-supported PKP Community to meet with the women leaders, visit the garden and enjoy a local lunch.
