7 Days Bali In A Nutshell Private Tour

Upon arrival, our friendly English-speaking guide will be waiting for you at the airport, ready to whisk you away on a short drive from Denpasar Airport to Sanur. This charming beach town, known for its serene atmosphere and great connections to various spots across Bali and nearby islands, serves as the perfect starting point for your adventure. Spending two nights here allows you to unwind and prepare for exploring other parts of Bali. On the first day, no activities are planned, giving you ample time to relax by the pool or take leisurely walks on the beach and nearby local markets.

After breakfast, you'll head to the harbor for a morning speedboat ride to the famous island of Nusa Penida. The island is renowned for its stunning sea cliffs and iconic beaches like Kelingking Beach. Get your camera ready to capture the breathtaking landscapes with beautiful beaches nestled beneath towering cliffs and natural rock pools.

Throughout the day, you'll explore the island's main attractions, including Diamond Beach, Broken Beach, and Angel’s Billabong, all of which are frequently featured in travel catalogs. After the beach excursion, enjoy lunch at a local restaurant during the island tour. In the afternoon, you'll return to Bali by boat. The evening is yours to explore the vibrant surroundings of your hotel in Sanur.

Leaving bustling Sanur behind, you'll head to Padangbai Bay, a small fishing village with its hidden pristine sandy beaches. This is the perfect spot for you to get a glimpse into the traditional Balinese life with the local markets and quiet surroundings. The local beach is also ideal for snorkeling and relaxation away from the tourist crowds. Snorkeling enthusiasts have the option to rent equipment right on the beach to admire Bali’s amazing diverse marine life. In the afternoon, your adventure continues to Sidemen, ascending through winding roads across the island.

Along the way, we'll make a stop at Gembleng Waterfall. A short hike up a steep path will lead you there, so be sure to walk carefully. But at the top, you'll be rewarded with beautiful water pools and cascading falls - perfect for taking amazing pictures! After the waterfall, we head to Sidemen, one of Bali's hidden gems. There, lush rice terraces will unfold before you like a green carpet. You might also catch a glimpse of Mount Agung, Bali's tallest and most sacred volcano. You'll end the day at a relaxing resort nestled among the rice fields.

Your journey continues to Bali's tranquil northeast corner, where you'll often see Mount Agung peeking in the distance. An early start ensures you reach Pura Lempuyang Temple before the crowds arrive to take iconic photos at this "Gateway to Heaven".

Next, you'll visit Amed village to experience its peaceful rural landscapes, offering a different side of Bali. You can explore the underwater world by snorkeling (equipment available for rent) and then relax with a drink at Sunset Point – a gorgeous clifftop spot with amazing sunset views. Diving enthusiasts also have the chance to explore the nearby wreck of the USAT Liberty, a US transport ship sunk in World War II— an unforgettable underwater experience!

As we explore the area, a visit to the sacred Tirta Gangga Water Palace is an absolute must. Surrounded by lush rice paddies, the stunning palace takes you to a Balinese fairy tale, offering picturesque charms and cultural beauty. The late afternoon is all yours to enjoy, with the sounds of nature leading you to complete relaxation.

Today's adventure takes you to some of Bali's most iconic sights! First, we'll check out of your hotel and head to Kintamani, a former volcano caldera now filled with lava fields and black sands. Get ready to be amazed by stunning views of Mount Batur from special lookout points here! You'll hop on a 4-wheel drive jeep to explore the landscapes of the lava fields, which look almost like the moon! After this thrilling adventure, you'll relax at a local coffee plantation, tasting traditional coffee and learning about the production process, including Indonesia's famous kopi luwak.

After lunch, get ready to be wowed by the iconic Tegallalang Rice Terraces! Then we'll stop by Alas Harum, a breathtaking spot with cascading rice paddies that flow down in multiple levels. Don't forget your camera - you'll want to snap a pic by the gorgeous Cretya Ubud pool, surrounded by lush greenery! Then, discover the richness of Balinese spirituality at Tirta Empul Temple, a sacred site known for its purification rituals and serene surroundings. Then, rest up for the night in Ubud, Bali's vibrant artistic heart.

Your Balinese food adventure starts today! We'll head into a kitchen to learn how to cook some yummy traditional Indonesian dishes, discover cool facts about the ingredients as well as their health benefits.
