Today will be packed with adventure, so be sure to fuel up at breakfast. We’ll kick things o˛ with a visit to Mas Village and a traditional wood carving workshop, before continuing on to explore the lush green terraces of Tegallalang, one of the most defining views of Bali.

Up next, a visit to a co˛ ee plantation to learn how our favourite morning beverage is made (with samples, of course), before we move on for a lunch with a di˛ erence. What’s the di˛ erence? Well, when was the last time you tucked into a traditional Balinese meal with a view of a sacred volcano mountain in the background? Still not done with the day, we’ll make our way back to Ubud for a visit to ‘Puri Saren Agung’, or Ubud Palace, the former o˙ cial residence of the royal family of Ubud. Finally, we’ll finish the epic first day of your Bali tour with a trip to Ubud Market, where there’s time to shop for locally made art and handicrafts. B,˜L

Day 4, Ubud - Sanur

Beach bliss awaits us in Sanur later today, but not before an action-packed day of sightseeing. The serene 17th century Ulun Danu temple will be our firt stop, where a temple dedicated to the Goddess of the Waters is built on the small islands of Lake Bratan. From here we’ll continue on to Mengwi and the temple of Taman Ayun. Built in 1634, the temple is surrounded by a wide moat and has a series of courtyards which feature a number of Meru (multi-tiered shrines). Still not templed out, our final visit of the dy will be to Bali’s most photographed temple, Tanah Lot. Perched precariously on a wave whipped rock, this 16th century icon is still a major crowd pleaser. Feeling culturally satisfied, e’ll then end the day to the gentle sound of the waves, in laidback Sanur. B, L Hotel: Prime Plaza Sanur

Day 5, Sanur

Is there any better feeling than waking up knowing that the ocean is just a stone’s throw away? And even better – this morning is entirely free for you to do as much, or as little, as you like. Take a dip in the sea, top up your tan, or maybe choose to join our optional tour of Bali’s capital city, Denpasar, travelling in style in a vintage VW Kombi. This afternoon we’ll be heading to Uluwatu, a gorgeous stretch of headland that’s also home to the Pura Uluwatu temple, perched high above the sea. This evening, we’ll be treated to a traditional Balinese Kecak dance performance, before a dinner of fresh seafood is served right on Jimbaran beach. Perfection. B, D

Day 6, Sanur Free Day

Day 7, Depart Bali

And just like that, your magical week in Bali has come to an end. You’ve explored stunning temples, devoured Nasi Goreng, been the recipient of a thousand warm smiles and made wonderful new friends, and you’ll be leaving today feeling satisfiedand nostalgic. Transferring to the airport for your onward flight, e’ll look forward to seeing you again someday soon. B
