Classic Bali

Bali
With hotel
Rice terraces

This 8-day Bali itinerary is designed for travelers who want to see the island’s key highlights in a short time — temples, waterfalls, rice terraces, and the ocean. The route includes time in Ubud, known for its jungle landscapes and cultural scene, visits to royal palaces and the eastern part of the island, and several days by the sea in Nusa Dua. Transfers, hotels, and a guide are included, so you can focus on the experience rather than logistics.

The first days are based in Ubud, a small town in the center of the island, surrounded by rice terraces, forest, and waterfalls. During this part of the trip, you’ll visit temples and former royal sites, walk through rice fields, and head out to waterfalls hidden deep in the jungle. The air is cooler near the water, and the constant sound of falling streams creates a distinct sense of place.

The second part of the journey unfolds by the ocean. Wide beaches with an easy entry into the water, steady waves, and warm sand underfoot set the pace. You can spend your time between the beach, coastal walks, and short trips around the southern peninsula, including a clifftop temple and evening performances at sunset.

What to expect

Day 1 — Arrival in Bali - transfer to Ubud

Your journey begins with a personal airport pickup. From there, you leave the busy arrival area behind and head towards Ubud — Bali’s cultural heart.

You’ll be staying at Ayung Resort Ubud, set above the Ayung River, the island’s main waterway. There’s no city noise here — only the sounds of the rainforest and the river below. On arrival, you’ll be welcomed with a refreshing drink and seasonal fruit before settling into your Deluxe room.

The evening is yours to ease into the island’s rhythm. After a long flight, there’s nothing better than relaxing in the infinity pool overlooking the canyon. Watch the sunset from the water and let the atmosphere of the jungle set the tone for the days ahead.

Accommodation: Ayung Resort Ubud 5* Deluxe Room Pool View

Day 2 — Free day

After breakfast, your private transfer will take you to the center of Ubud. This is where Balinese culture comes alive in everyday details — from ceremonial processions and vibrant traditional outfits to women gracefully carrying offering baskets on their heads.

How to spend your day:

  • browse the colorful local markets and artisan streets, where you’ll find unique handmade décor and jewelry;

  • settle into a cozy café and watch the rhythm of daily life unfold;

  • soak in the atmosphere of a place that draws people from around the world in search of inspiration and spiritual practices;

  • wander along scenic walking paths through lush rice terraces;

  • visit some of Ubud’s renowned museums — galleries like Blanco Renaissance Museum and Puri Lukisan Museumoffer a deeper look into Bali’s art, history, and refined aesthetic.

In the evening, take it slow and get some rest. Tomorrow marks the start of a more active part of your journey — a tour through Bali’s royal palaces awaits.

Day 3 — Bali Royal Palaces Tour

Day three is dedicated to exploring Bali’s royal heritage and spiritual traditions, accompanied by a guide. Your journey begins at one of the island’s most iconic “temples in the clouds,” where sweeping views open up over a majestic volcano. From there, continue to elegant water palaces, where European classical elements blend seamlessly with traditional Balinese design.

After a full day of temples and palaces, you’ll unwind at a secluded white-sand beach with clear turquoise water. It’s the perfect place for a swim and a moment of quiet relaxation.

In the evening, return to your hotel and enjoy the calm — whether it’s dinner at a scenic restaurant or a peaceful moment by the pool.

Main points of the route:

  • The temple in the clouds, Pura Lempuyang;

  • Tirta Gangga;

  • Royal palaces of Taman Ujung;

  • Goa Lavah;

  • Virgin beach.

Day 4 — Free day

This day is intentionally left open so you can spend it exactly the way you like.

Choose what fits your mood:

  • Open-air yoga
    The hotel offers beautiful spaces overlooking the canyon. Even if you’ve never tried yoga before, this is the perfect place to start — with beginner-friendly sessions set to the sounds of the waking rainforest.

  • Go back to what caught your eye
    Maybe it was a painting in a gallery, a hand-carved mask on one of Ubud’s artisan streets, or a café you didn’t have time to visit. Now’s your chance to return and enjoy it properly.

  • A spontaneous outing
    Still in the mood to explore? We’ll be happy to arrange a taxi or private transfer to anywhere in town that wasn’t included in the main itinerary.

  • Total relaxation
    Sleep in, take your time over breakfast, and spend a slow afternoon by the pool, soaking in the peaceful atmosphere of the Ayung River valley.

Day 5 — Ubud Waterfalls Tour and transfer to the South coast

Day five is all about Bali’s natural beauty and your transition to the southern coast. The morning begins with visits to three of the most scenic waterfalls near Ubud. Hidden in lush canyons, these multi-tiered cascades, cool natural pools, and powerful streams offer a refreshing connection with nature.

The journey continues through the famous rice terraces — the perfect setting for photos surrounded by endless shades of green.

In the evening, you’ll be transferred to Nusa Dua, Bali’s premier coastal resort area. Please make sure to bring all your luggage, as the next part of your stay will be at a beachfront hotel. After a full day of exploring, unwind with a walk along the shore or a quiet dinner accompanied by the ocean breeze.

Main points of the route:

  • kanto lampo waterfall;

  • tibumana waterfall;

  • tukad cepung waterfall;

  • tegallalang rice terraces.

Accommodation: Nusa Dua Beach Hotel & Spa, Bali 5* Deluxe Room

Day 6 — Free day

Day nine is all about unwinding in Nusa Dua, one of Bali’s most refined resort areas. The coastline here is known for its wide sandy beaches and gentle entry into the water, which stays clear and calm even close to shore.

Everything you need is close by, so you can enjoy the day without long drives. Within walking distance of your hotel, you’ll find Bali Collection — an open-air shopping and dining area with boutiques, cafés, and restaurants. There’s also a well-maintained park nearby, perfect for an easy прогулка among tropical greenery.

Along the coast, several surf spots offer beginner-friendly conditions. If you’d like to book a lesson, simply reach out to our team — we’ll take care of the arrangements.

Day 7 — Free day and packing

Today is your last full day in Bali — a time to slow down and enjoy the island at your own pace. You’ll have access to yoga spaces, a gym, and a sauna.

If you feel like exploring a bit more, we can arrange a private transfer around the Bukit Peninsula. This southern tip of the island is known for its dramatic landscapes and diverse beaches — from hidden coves to long stretches of soft sand.

One of the highlights of the area is Uluwatu Temple, set on the edge of a 70-meter cliff overlooking the ocean. It’s also home to Bali’s famous monkeys, often seen around the temple grounds.

Our team will be happy to arrange tickets for optional experiences — including the traditional Kecak Dance, performed at sunset against the dramatic backdrop of the cliffs at Uluwatu.

Day 8 — Departure day

Your journey comes to an end — it’s time to say goodbye to the island and the ocean.

Spend the morning at your own pace as you wait for your departure. We’ll arrange a private transfer from your hotel to Ngurah Rai International Airport.

Your pickup time will be carefully aligned with your flight schedule, ensuring a smooth and comfortable end to your trip.

Bali is the kind of place that stays with you long after you leave.

The tour surpassed all my expectations! From the greeting at the airport to the luxurious Ayung Resort Ubud, everything was seamless. The traditional yoga class overlooking the lush jungle was a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Our English-speaking guide brought the rich cultural history of Bali to life as we explored the breathtaking Pura Lempuyang and the majestic royal palaces. Highly recommended for those seeking an immersive Balinese experience!

The trip was overall wonderful, though the itinerary was a bit packed. Ubud's waterfalls and rice terraces were mesmerizing, especially for photography. The beach day on Virgin Beach was a nice break, and the accommodation in Nusa Dua Beach Hotel & Spa was comfortable. I wish we had a bit more free time to explore on our own, but everything was well organized!
