Bali Island Hopping

Hello & welcome to Indonesia! We’ve got 8 days of sea, sun, snorkelling & stunning views lined up ahead of us. And we’re kicking off in the turquoise-tinted town of Seminyak - famous for its buzzing vibe & stunning beaches. So, exchange hellos with your brand new crew and come join us for welcome drinks & a gorgeous sunset by the beach at Potato Head Beach Club (one of Bali's most popular & planet-friendly beach clubs!).

So long Seminyak! After brekkie, we'll make our way to Ubud - Bali’s unofficial cultural capital. Ubud’s all yours to explore this evening. But if you wanna meet the locals & take a cooking class in the famous rice fields of Ubud, come join us for a ride to a nearby village.

You’ve got a full day to experience the magic of Ubud and there’s plenty to dive into. Wander colourful markets, explore lush rice paddies and jungle trails, or step inside an ancient temple and soak up the atmosphere. Take it slow and savour it, or mix in a little adventure - totally up to you. Want to elevate the day? Set off early for a sunrise hike up Mt Batur. It’s a steady climb to 1,717m above sea level and yes, the wake-up call is early, but the views from the top make it more than worthwhile. If you’re after something more active, try white-water rafting for a fun, splash-filled ride through the rapids. Whether you’re chasing culture, calm, or a bit of a challenge, Ubud delivers. Just pack comfy shoes and a sense of adventure.

Wakey wakey, there’s another piece of paradise just waiting to be explored. Grab breakfast, and jump on a fast boat as we make our way to Gili Trawangan. Yep, we’re going to the Gili Islands! You might’ve seen sandy beaches fringed with palm trees, but ain’t nothing compares to the buzzing yet peaceful vibe of Gili T. You’ve got the evening to take in the chilled out 'beanbag, drink-in-hand' vibes and prepare for a full day of adventure that awaits us tomorrow.

It’s not everyday you get to spend an entire day relaxing, swimming and snorkelling in crystal clear waters (with corals, fish and maybe even sea turtles). But today’s the day, baby! We’ll set off on a boat and explore the rest of the Gili Islands (AKA Gili Air & Gili Meno) and even enjoy a delicious lunch with pristine beachfront views. Then, it’s back to our homebase, Gili T.

It’s a free day in paradise. So, check out the beach clubs with your crew and chill on the white-sand shore. Or even better, choose to spend the whole day diving into the sea (with experts, ofc) for some more underwater exploration!

Today we make our way to our final Bali stop, Sanur. Settle in and enjoy the boat ride. Think ocean views, sea breeze and a chance to swap stories, scroll through your camera roll, or just switch off and relax. Next stop: Sanur and more beachside vibes. These aren’t ordinary shores, people. They are nothing short of legendary. And guess what? Our hotel is pretty epic too - decked with a rooftop bar, infinity pool, eclectic designs and just a 3-min walk from the beach. You know what to do.

And just like that, it's already our final morning of the trip. Goodbye, Bali. You've been a blast!
