Package overview
This is Indochina Signature's longest Bali program and the only one built around an overnight stay away from the mainland. After the standard opening days at Uluwatu Temple and the Ulun Danu Beratan and Tanah Lot temples, the group crosses to Gili Trawangan by seat-in-coach boat transfer, spends time there including a stop in West Nusa Penida, then returns to Bali via Nusa Penida for a free day and a sunset dinner cruise before departure.
The two boat transfers and the island change mean this itinerary needs more slack in the schedule than Indochina Signature's single-island Bali programs, so it is best positioned for clients who are not trying to pack in maximum sightseeing per day. It suits families, multi-generational groups or incentive trips where a change of scenery, from Bali's south coast to Gili Trawangan's car-free beaches, is part of the appeal.
Trip highlights
- Water sports followed by Uluwatu Temple
- Ulun Danu Beratan lake temple and sunset at Tanah Lot
- Seat-in-coach boat transfer to Gili Trawangan
- West Nusa Penida island tour on the return route
- Sunset dinner cruise before departure
Day-by-day itinerary
Day 1: Arrival in Bali
Guests land in Denpasar and transfer privately to their South Bali hotel. No activities are scheduled on this first day, leaving the rest of the time free for guests to rest after their flight before the nine-day program gets underway.
Day 2: Water sports and Uluwatu Temple
A water sports session is followed by a visit to Uluwatu Temple on its clifftop above the Indian Ocean, one of Bali's six directional temples known for its coastal setting and late-afternoon views over the surf below. Breakfast is included.
Day 3: Ulun Danu Beratan and Tanah Lot
The day covers Ulun Danu Beratan, the lake temple in Bali's central highlands, and finishes at Tanah Lot for sunset over the offshore sea temple, the last mainland stop before the island crossing begins the next morning. Breakfast is included.
Day 4: Transfer from Bali to Gili Trawangan by SIC boat
Guests travel by seat-in-coach boat transfer from Bali to Gili Trawangan, one of the three Gili Islands off Lombok known for their car-free, white-sand beaches, with the crossing taking up most of the day's travel time. Breakfast is included before departure.
Day 5: Gili Trawangan and West Nusa Penida tour
This day pairs time on Gili Trawangan with a West Nusa Penida island tour, part of the return route back toward Bali, giving guests a mix of the car-free Gili atmosphere and Nusa Penida's cliff scenery. Breakfast and lunch are included.
Day 6: Nusa Penida to Bali
The group continues from Nusa Penida back to the Bali mainland by boat, completing the return leg of the island-hopping section of the trip, with breakfast and lunch included along the way and the rest of the evening left free.
Day 7: Free day
No activities are scheduled, giving guests time to rest after the island crossings, shop independently or revisit a favorite spot from earlier in the trip. Breakfast is included, and this is the itinerary's main buffer day before the closing dinner cruise.
Day 8: Sunset dinner cruise
The evening features a sunset dinner cruise off Bali's coast, typically including live entertainment on board, a relaxed close to the trip after the earlier island-hopping days. Breakfast and dinner are included, with the rest of the day left open.
Day 9: Departure
Guests transfer to the airport after a final breakfast for their outbound flight, ending the longest itinerary in Indochina Signature's Bali range after a mix of mainland touring, island-hopping and free time along the way over the full nine days.
