Indonesia has over 17,000 Islands. Bali, Lombok and the 3 Gili islands are probably the ones that contain the best combination of adventure, picturesque scenery, and amenities for us travellers. So, without further ado, let’s jump right into it. Here are the top things to do in Bali – some of the most amazing experiences awaiting you in this land of wonder:
Trek to Mount Batur
Wake up early in the morning, and trek for around 3 hours in pitch darkness, which is an experience in itself.
The climax of this experience is you, cuddled up, with a warm cup of coffee, nibbling breakfast and patiently waiting for one of nature’s most incredible sights – a sunrise high in the sky.
Campuhan Ridge Walk
Stroll around in the natural beauty of nature, taking in the fresh air, that will instantly help you to tune into your environment, and to relax.
The Campuhan Ridge Walk spans an approximate nine kilometres in total, passing over the lush valley of the Sungai Wos River.
Tegallalang rice terrace fields
Go deep into local Balinese life, as we explore the seemingly infinite rice fields in Tegallalang. Here we will get to see the local farming their rice crops.
We will also have the opportunity to experience the world-famous swing.
Watch dolphins
100% guaranteed.
The local know exactly where to find these gorgeous creatures, and therefore seeing dolphins here is a certainty.
Chill on the Gili Islands
This could easily be the highlight of your holiday in Indonesia. The 3 Gili Islands, Gili Trawangan, Gili Air and Gili Meno, each have their unique characteristics.
Sleeping on Gili Trawangan will give you more options for entertainment (partying) at night, while the other two islands are more chilled out.
In any case, all 3 islands have no motorised vehicles on them, that instantly demonstrates the reigning chilled out pace here.
Swim with Turtles
Turtles are majestic swimming creatures and inhabit the Gili Islands abundantly. Here you are guaranteed to swim with tens of turtles in the incredibly blue sea.
You will get the opportunity to get very close to the turtles, however, we suggest you refrain from touching them as it makes them feel uncomfortable.
Monkey Forest
Evidently, Indonesia’s nature is incredible. The Monkey Forest is a unique experience to trek in nature, whilst being surrounded by Monkeys.
Here you are in their territory, so make sure you protect your valuables well; including your camera 😉
Pura Tita Empul Temple
Hinduism is the prevalent religion in Bali, and Pura Tita Empul is one of the nicest, active temples. Here you will get to immerse yourself in traditions of Hinduism.
The temple mainly costs of a bathing structure, where the faithful immerse themselves in the water for purification.
Kanto Lampo Water falls
Let yourself go, and take the best possible photo you can with the backdrop of a rushing waterfall, streaming behind you.
Here we will have the opportunity to swim in the natural fresh water and feel the immense power of a waterfall.
Toyobungkah Hot springs
Imagine yourself having a nice, relaxing bath, feeling the gentle touch of warm water touching your skin.
Now take that feeling in an incredible setting; a peaceful lake, with mountains in its backdrop, and add to it soothing sound of multiple streams of hot water pouring into the naturally heated pool. Incredible.
Nusa Penida
Yet another island in Indonesia that offers stunning views, and seas.
In Nusa Penida, we can visit Atuh Cliff, Teletubbies Hills, broken beach, Kelingking Beach, Angles Billabong, and Crystal Bay, amongst others.
Ulun Danu Beratan Temple
A temple that’s conveniently located in stunning scenery. The temple complex is located by Lake Bratan, near Bedugul.
Quadbiking in Sanur
Ending is style. Sanur is home to what could possibly be one of the most exciting quad bike tracks we’ve ever seen.
Enjoying speeding through massive puddles, splashing water all over. For those who love speed and adventure, this experience is a must.
