Early in the morning, you will be picked up by transfer from your hotel to Padangbai Port and you need to register your tickets with Ostina. The boat leaves for Gili Trawangan at 09:00. Gili Islands are called turtle islands, as they are home to several species of giant sea turtles. After arriving and checking in at Manta Dive Gili Trawangan Resort, you head out snorkeling. Bring a GoPro — the turtles racing past, the reef fish, the whole underwater scene are worth filming. After snorkeling you will have free time to relax on the beautiful island's beaches famous for the swings, and to contemplate the sunset rays reflected in the ocean. In the evening we advise you to go to local bars and restaurants, listen to live music and taste delicious seafood.
Early in the morning, you will witness a breathtaking sunrise as the first rays of sunlight illuminate the island, all while enjoying a cup of freshly brewed coffee. After breakfast at the hotel, you will have free time until noon to explore the island on foot or by bicycle (bicycle rentals are available directly at the hotel).
To check in for your speedboat transfer from Gili Trawangan to Bali, please arrive at the Ostina office at least 60 minutes before the scheduled departure time and present your ticket. Upon arrival at Padangbai Harbor in Bali, proceed to the designated parking area, where an Ostina driver will be waiting to transfer you to D'alas Villa in Ubud. Please keep your transfer voucher safe, as you will need to present it to the driver upon arrival in Bali.
On the third day we will travel to the heart of Bali - Ubud. Here there are some of the most popular places for photo shoots: Tegallalang rice terraces, swings in the jungle, waterfalls and more. During this trip you will visit one of the oldest temples - Gunung Kawi with the tombs of Ubud kings, carved into the rocks, swim in Kanto Lampo cascade waterfall and watch the daily life of monkeys in the Monkey Forest. The end of the day you will spend in your D'alas Villa with unforgettable sounds of the rainforest nature.
At night the driver will take you to the foothill of the active Batur volcano. There you will be met by a guide who will give you torches, and you will begin your ascent. The height of Batur volcano is 1717 meters. Ascent time depends on your physical abilities and takes about 2.5 hours. You climb above the clouds for a wide view over the island and one of the best sunrises you'll see anywhere. After climbing you will rest and relax in the hot springs in the caldera of the volcano overlooking the lake. Then you will have breakfast. A wonderful way to start your day. After the end of the program the transfer will take you to your hotel or villa.
on the way back, boats can be delayed; while waiting on the beach, wear a hat or stay in the shade;

We are absolutely delighted with this trip! Excellent organization, the views on the islands are simply mesmerizing, especially the encounter with giant turtles. The sunrise on Mount Batur was the cherry on top, and we are incredibly happy we took this tour!
Nice tour overall with some beautiful landscapes and a lovely guide. The only downside was the wait time for the transfer on our return journey.
