There are 17,000 islands in the Indonesian archipelago, but none shine brighter than Bali.
From the green slopes of Mt Batur to the Bintang bodegas on Seminyak’s main party strip, Bali is a volcano-dotted, beach-fringed paradise that’s serene and sensational by turns. But beyond themega-resorts and yoga studios, you'll find the essence of Bali in the temples,out-of-the-way mountain towns, local markets and lazy fishing villages. Our Bali tours areaboutdiving the impossibly blue waters off Lovina, being welcomed into a Balinese family home, soaking in the Banja hot springs, or sipping smoothies in Ubud’scafes.As always, when it comes to paradise, the hardest bit is choosing what to do first.

Annita · Traveled May 2024
This trip is totally recommended for people who love adventure and meeting new cultures. Bali, Lombok and Gili Air exceeded in all aspects my expectations. The way the trip was progressing was perfect and it was very well organized. Last but not least, our leader Andy was a super friendly and professional leader which adds more value to this trip.

Bali, Lombok & Gili Islands: Hike, Bike, Raft & Snorkel
Gemma · Traveled May 2024
A great mix of activities, carefully choreographed to progress in difficulty to culminate in a tough but rewarding 1800m volcano ascent & camp on the crater rim. Our guide Andy was a delight, the weather perfect & the group was super fun.

Bali, Lombok & Gili Islands: Hike, Bike, Raft & Snorkel
Shani · Traveled May 2024
This trip was amazing. Although the sights and cultural experiences exceeded our expectations, the best part was the trip leader (Andy!) and the attention to logistical details. This was our first Intrepid trip and we plan to use them again. However, we’re afraid we’ve already peaked with this trip!
