Second outbound flight, departing from Dubai to Denpasar.
Transfer from the airport to the hotel in Ubud and a free day at the destination.
After breakfast at the hotel, we will set out early for the famous Tegallalang rice terraces in Ubud, where we will enjoy breathtaking panoramic views. In the afternoon, we will visit the Goa Gajah temple (Elephant Cave)—a 9th-century sanctuary featuring caves, pools, and statues that has been designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Afterward, we will head to the nearby Pura Taman Ayun temple—Bali's second-holiest temple—situated on a river island and surrounded by gardens and canals filled with water lilies.
After breakfast at the hotel, we will visit the Ubud Royal Palace to admire its architecture and, if possible, watch a Balinese dance performance. Next, we will head to the Ubud Art Market—Bali’s most famous market—which is the perfect place to shop for handicrafts, clothing, and souvenirs, and to try your hand at bargaining. In the afternoon, we will travel to Tegenungan Waterfall, located on the Petanu River. After a short walk past shops and viewpoints, we can enjoy the scenery, have a drink at the restaurant overlooking the falls, and swim in the shallow waters.
Breakfast at the hotel.
Free morning in Ubud.
In the afternoon, transfer to Nusa Penida, with the rest of the day free to explore the island a bit.
Diamond Beach and Atuh Beach—two of the island's most stunning beaches—are located on the east coast of Nusa Penida; while renowned for their spectacular scenery, they are not suitable for swimming due to strong currents. Diamond Beach is distinguished by its white sand and its location at the foot of a 100-meter cliff, offering sea views and diamond-shaped rock formations. From there, one can climb the stairs and continue along the path to Atuh Beach, a turquoise-water beach nestled between cliffs where it is possible to cool off at the water's edge. Nearby lies the Thousand Islands viewpoint, offering vistas of numerous islets surrounding the island and access to the famous *Rumah Pohon* treehouse. Located about 30 minutes from Diamond Beach is Pura Goa Giri Putri, an important Hindu place of worship situated within a cave; although the entrance is narrow and difficult to navigate, the site houses the largest cave on Nusa Penida.
Broken Beach is a Nusa Penida icon. It is another idyllic beach, though swimming is not permitted there. It serves more as a viewpoint, yet it is well worth a visit. You can enjoy views of a massive natural archway through which the turquoise sea water flows. Right next to Broken Beach lies Angel’s Billabong, a natural pool of crystal-clear water nestled between cliffs. You will have to view it from above, as descending is dangerous and access is prohibited. After visiting these spots where you cannot actually swim, we will head to Crystal Bay to spend the afternoon. It is surrounded by palm trees and lush vegetation, boasting crystal-clear waters. Moreover, it is one of the best places on the island for snorkeling.
After breakfast at the hotel, we will visit another natural pool: Temeling Beach and Forest. It is nestled amidst the jungle vegetation of Nusa Penida. As you walk along the trail, you will pass Balinese shrines and come across the first natural pool, filled with brilliant blue water. Further along, there is another pool right by the sea, complete with a small waterfall. In the distance, you will see a white-sand beach with swings, a rocky sea cave, and views of islets and cliffs.
Breakfast at the hotel and morning transfer from Nusa Penida to Jimbaran. Free afternoon to explore the town of Jimbaran.
After breakfast at the hotel, we will visit Uluwatu Temple, situated atop an impressive 75-meter-high cliff. Pura Luhur Uluwatu is one of Bali's most important and beautiful temples, prized for both its spiritual significance and its location. During our visit, we will share the surroundings with the local monkeys—known for snatching small objects—though should this happen, a local guide will be on hand to help retrieve them.
Free day until the transfer to Denpasar Airport. Then, the first return flight, departing from Denpasar to Dubai.
Second return flight, departing from Dubai to Madrid, Spain.
