Bali adventure holiday

Small group adventure holiday
This is a 'small group adventure' - on our group trips you'll be with a maximum of 11 like minded travellers and you'll have a group leader with you. Whether you are travelling alone or with friends it's good value, and a great way to meet new people! While itineraries are pre-planned there is some flexibility and you'll have plenty of privacy. This trip will appeal to travellers of all ages who enjoy meeting people from other parts of the world as well as seeing new places!

Because of our small group size, we're able to guarantee departures for all of our trips. Once you have booked and paid your deposit, your trip is guaranteed to go!

How this holiday makes a difference

We have been an established tour operator in Bali for over 10 years and our fabulous local leaders have forged long standing and close relationships with many Balinese people. Due to the continued relationship many of our local friends invite us into their homes to share in a traditional Balinese feast, not only providing additional income for the respective families, but giving you a truly unique insight into Balinese culinary delights and importantly, Balinese familial culture.

During this trip, we stay in small locally owned accommodation to help provide increased income to the local economy and step by step we have been working with our local friends to improve environmental awareness.

We are very proud as a company to see our Balinese friends grow with our business. Dewa Ketut, our transport man in Bali is a great example of this. Through our relationship with Dewa he has been able to develop his business from one leased minivan, to his personal fleet of 5 new minivans, and with continued support he now employs a staff of 5.

Our support of the local culture and peoples of Bali spreads it wings over many spectacular destinations. We choose local guides from various villages to help them develop their guiding and English skills, to watch their confidence grow as they mature their talents is truly rewarding. We encourage passengers to assist in the preservation of regional traditions such as the Genyek dance, Megi Bung feasting, and songket weaving.

1. What was the most memorable or exciting part of your holiday?


Snorkelling, climbing the volcano and learning about the particular kind of Hinduism practised in Bali.

2. What tips would you give other travellers booking this holiday?


Try and have an extra day in Ubud (the starting place), either before or after - there's lots to see there and around, the hotel is beautiful and there is a good choice of cheaper accommodation too. Hire a bike!

3. Did you feel that your holiday benefited local people, and minimized impacts on the environment?


To a certain extent, as local guides were used, but tourism is so big in Bali that it seems to be what many people survive on anyway. We used 2 minivans for transport, so that's not particularly environmentally friendly, but hard to see what alternatives there could be as there is little public transport.

4. Finally, how would you rate your holiday overall?


We saw beautiful landscapes and temples and interesting sights, but were a bit disappointed with some of the local guides who though friendly and polite, didn't speak enough English to explain what we were seeing. Also there were some quite long drives, and more stops along the way for refreshments, temple visits etc would have been good.
