    • Immerse yourself in the stories of the royal family and learn about Bali’s cultural traditions and royal family life as you dine on a meal fit for a king at a royal palace in Ubud.
    • Learn about local village life with village visits that include strolling through rice fields, learning about jewellery and crafts, and whipping up local specialties at an authentic cooking class.
    • Spend three nights at your tranquil Feature Stay – Ubud Village Hotel – surrounded by tropical foliage and the sound of birds. Located on Monkey Forest Road, this conveniently located oasis offers a perfect place to relax in the pool after long days exploring the sites and culture of Bali.

What's this trip about?

    From the fervent pace of Jakarta to the back alleys of Ubud, the islands of Bali and Java are Indonesia’s most celebrated duo – a treasure trove of beautiful beaches, rolling hills and dynamic cities. Be charmed by Indonesia’s rich cultural heritage, witness traditional dance performances and explore ornate temples. Get to the heart of life on this famous archipelago by visiting rice paddies and remote villages and learning about the region’s traditional arts and crafts. And that’s not all – you’ll also join royalty at a palace in Ubud for a special dinner and traditional dance performance. If you don’t already have Indonesia in your heart, this trip will certainly have you planning your return!
