Introducing Bali...

...the most magical, and mythical, of all the charismatic archipelago of Indonesia. Breathtaking panoramas of cultivated rice terraces, impressive volcanoes and pristine beaches. Some call it the ‘Island of the Gods’ - a truly beautiful tropical island inhabited by a remarkably artistic and spiritual people who have created a dynamic society with unique arts and ceremonies. Our island adventure will take you to Ubud, the heart of Bali’s arts, dance & music; Amed, with it’s lofty mountains, curving bays & crystalline waters; Mengwi with it’s wonderful views and rural life; Pemuteran and Menjangan Island, an amazing snorkeling and beach experience; and Sanur, a mature beachfront town. Embark on a cultural immersion as you meet with traditional Balinese healers, enjoy private meetings with royal families, explore sacred temples and experience colorful ceremonies.
