Bali, the Indonesian ‘island of the gods’ needs no introduction with its legendary surfing hotspots, volcanic highlands and white sand beaches. Experience this enchanting island destination during a uniquely curated six-day tour that combines staying in stunning private residences with exclusive touring activities.
Your adventure begins in Ubud, the cultural heart of Bali, where you’ll become immersed in the tranquil surroundings of the Balinese countryside at your own luxurious private residence for the day. Indulge in the cuisine freshly prepared by your private chef before the evening’s entertainment begins with an intimate Kecak dance performance. This traditional dance originated in the 1930s and has become one of Bali’s most prominent cultural showcases, depicting the ancient Ramayana epic of world literature.
"Relax in the natural splendour of your private residence whilst savouring sweeping ocean views, before dining in the spectacular setting of a secluded cave."
Your immersion into Balinese culture continues the following day with a private tour of the Agung Rai Museum of Art (ARMA), where one of the museum’s experts will showcase the collection of traditional and contemporary artwork. Next is a visit to the home of professional artist Yan Suryana for an introduction to his impressive body of work. Learn about Yan’s painting style and enjoy his hospitality during lunch hosted by his family, a fascinating experience providing insight into how his work celebrates the spirit of this exotic island. Before leaving Ubud, visit the home of a local shaman for a traditional blessing ceremony – healers treat illness and cleanse bad energy during this significant ritual in Balinese culture.
The next stop on your journey is Sideman at a beautiful private residence where you can enjoy an afternoon of relaxing or take a leisurely stroll to find picturesque villages and waterfalls nearby. We can also arrange for you to learn the art of Balinese cooking with one of the island’s most renowned chefs. Savour the flavours of traditional Balinese dishes such as nasi goreng (stir-fried rice) or babi guling (spit roast pig) whilst taking in the beautiful setting. The following morning enjoy a true VIP experience discovering Tirta Gangga before it opens to the general public. Explore the stunning former royal water garden with a local expert, learning about the days of the Balinese Rajahs as you stroll between the fountains and pools filled with koi and lotus blossoms.
Then it’s off to the hilly peninsula of Uluwatu, famous for its white sandy beaches and panoramic cliff-top views. Relax in the natural splendour of your private residence whilst savouring sweeping ocean views, before dining in the spectacular setting of a secluded cave. Enjoy the cuisine prepared by your own private butler and dedicated chef during this memorable oceanside experience.
For a further taste of the region’s natural beauty, take a day cruise from Bali to the lesser-known island of Nusa Penida. Sail across the Badung Strait to this otherworldly paradise onboard your private boat charter. Discover the untouched beauty of the island, stopping by Kelingking Beach surrounded by dramatic cliffs, or the coastal pool and natural rock arch of Angel’s Billabong. The day concludes snorkelling at Manta Point, where you may be lucky enough to swim alongside manta rays or sunfish in the clear waters.
