Day 1 Ubud

Welcome to Ubud, arguably the most famous city in Bali! Settle in and explore this funky town then meet your group for a welcome meeting this evening. But stick around because we're heading out on our First Night Out! Get to know each other and Ubud a bit better.

Day 2 Ubud

With seemingly never-ending things to do in Ubud, choose to spend it how you want! Choose between incredible local experiences like a Balinese Spiritual tour at Widya Guna Foundation, a cooking class at G for Good PKP Community, a bike tour through the rice terraces or an experience with a local family! The choice is yours!

Day 3 Ubud/Tempasan

Drive to the harbour and take a speed boat to the island of Lombok. Drive to Tempasan village and meet the villagers for a group dinner.

Day 4 Tempasan

Get close to local life in Lombok today on a village tour and rice terrace trek. Meet with local farmers to learn about village life firsthand, wander through the instagramable rice terraces and maybe sample some local fruit on the various plantations. Then join the local women to learn about their gorgeous traditional weaving styles and a yummy lunch. The rest of the day is yours to explore Lombok how you'd like. Opt to join a local cooking class, take a bike tour or join a yoga class. Then join the group for an after-dinner campfire.

If you choose to join the optional 2-day 1-night Rinjani summit trek, will have the chance to join the Rice Terrace Village Walk and Weaving Demonstration after your return on day 3.

Day 5 Tempasan

From land to sea, Lombok has a never-ending list of sick adventures for us! Today is yours so do what you want. Yoga? A snorkel trip? Monkeys and waterfalls? A cooking class? Options on options! So get out there how you want!

Day 6 Tempasan/Senggigi

Drive to Bonjeruk Village this morning for an opportunity to connect with the local villagers. Here we will work up our appetite for a yummy Lombok lunch from a cycle tour around the village. Afterwards, continue on to Senggigi for a free afternoon at the beach.

Day 7 Senggigi/Gili Trawangan

Get ready for the ultimate island paradise as we travel to Gili Trawangan, an island with no motorized vehicles and the freshest air! After dropping our things off at the hotel, we head back out to sea for a snorkel trip. On board the boat, we'll jet around to various islands and picturesque snorkel spots in search of sea turtles, rays and if we're lucky, a cute lil reef shark. Grab your sunscreen and a snorkel and get ready for an epic day. Tonight, as if today could get any better, we head out on our big night out! Want a drank? Wanna dance? Well let's do it!

As there are no motorized vehicles on Gili Trawangan, you will need to carry your luggage from the speed boat to the hotel, approximately 300m.

Day 8 Gili Trawangan

There are 2 types of beach people. The rotters-who want to lay in the sun all day, and the adventurers! Today, you get to pick your own player and spend today exactly how you want! Feel free to pick your fav beach and just chill, get your tan on and take a dip in the perfect blue water. Looking for something more to do? How does stand up paddle board yoga sound? Maybe a leisurely bike ride around the island? However you choose to spend it, Gili T is yours to see.

Day 9 Gili Trawangan

Depart at any time.


Solo Travellers  

We believe solo travellers should not have to pay more to travel so our group trips are designed for shared accommodation and do not involve a single supplement. Single travellers joining group trips are paired in twin or multi-share accommodation with someone of the same sex for the duration of the trip. Some of our Independent trips are designed differently and solo travellers on these itineraries must pay the single trip price.


Accommodation  

Homestay (3 nts), Hotels (5 nts)


International Flights  

Check-in times and baggage allowances/restrictions vary by airline and can change at any time. For the most up-to-date information for your flight, please contact your airline. We recommend checking in online in advance to avoid potential delays at the airport.


Departure Tax  

Departure Tax is included in all International and Domestic tickets.


Tipping  

It is customary in Asia to tip service providers such as waiters, at approximately 10%, depending on the service. Tipping is expected - though not compulsory - and shows an expression of satisfaction with the people who have assisted you on your tour. Although it may not be customary to you, it is of considerable significance to the people who will take care of you during your travels. There are several times during the trip where there is opportunity to tip the local guides or drivers we use. You may do this individually, or your CEO will offer to collect the money and tip as a group. Recommendations for tipping drivers and local guides would range from $1.5-$3.5 USD per person per day depending on the quality and length of the service; ask your CEO for specific recommendations based on the circumstances and culture. Also at the end of each trip if you felt your G Adventures CEO did an outstanding job, tipping is appreciated. The amount is entirely a personal preference, however as a guideline $20-25 USD per person, per week can be used.

If you don't see a note, please ask reception for details!

Important Notes  

RAMADAN
According to the lunar cycle, Ramadan will fall between Feb 28th - Mar 29th 2025, and Feb 17th - Mar 19th 2026. Please note that Ramadan is a month of fasting observed by Muslims throughout the world, during which time the followers of Islam should not eat or drink between sunrise and sunset. There may be some limitations to services and disruptions to schedules during Ramadan, but generally our tours still operate effectively during this period and food is available to non-Muslims throughout the day. It is very important to display increased cultural sensitivity during Ramadan. Please wear loose fitting clothes, that cover knees and shoulders, and try to avoid eating, drinking or smoking in public out of respect for those who can't at that time.

COMBO TRIP
Please note that this tour combines with other G Adventures tours. As such, the staff and some travel companions on your tour may have previously been traveling together with G Adventures, prior to Day 1 of your tour. Likewise, some staff and travel companions may be continuing together on another G Adventures tour, after your trip concludes.
