Starting with the paddy fields and temples of Ubud, before exploring Lombok’s bamboo forests, waterfalls and beautiful villages, this itinerary takes you from Bali’s best-kept secret to the secluded turquoise waters and powder sands of the Gili Islands, before a relaxing round-off at a Balinese beach of your choice. This multi-centre really does combine the best of Indonesia’s culture and beaches in to one holiday. You can also opt to add in Singapore’s futuristic high life.

Itinerary
3 Nights – Ubud
5 Nights – Lombok
4 Nights – Gili Islands
5 Nights – Bali Beach
Optional Extension – Singapore
✈ UK – Ubud (3 Nights): You’ll fly from the UK to Bali, where a transfer to Ubud will mark the beginning of your 3 nights in this deeply cultural and staggeringly beautiful mountain city. 14 clustered villages form Ubud, where the region’s iconic old stone carvings decorate every temple pavilion, gate and the famed Goa Gajah Cave.
Cascading rice paddies and palms here shelter eye-opening cultural sites, like the Poet Mountain Temple’s cloisters and the atmospheric Campuhan Ridge Walk. Catch a live dance performance in the evening, browse markets for local arts and crafts, and drop by the Sacred Monkey Forest Sanctuary. With museums, galleries, fantastic restaurants, cafes and bars, everything from the bustling downtown to the bird parks is filled with wonders.
✈ Lombok (5 Nights): You’ll next fly from Bali to Lombok where we’ll be there to meet you and transfer you to your next hotel. You’ll spend 5 nights on this lesser-known Balinese gem. Lombok is the unspoiled beach spot that’s wrapped by waterfalls, tropical greenery and the humbling Mount Rinjani. Local Sasak culture here is very much alive, from Sukarara’s local handicrafts and traditional massages, to cooking classes and locally produced pearls.
While trekking, scenic bike tours and bamboo parks offer natural beauty and wildlife, it’s Lombok’s perfect balance of beach vibes and local culture that makes it so unique. Kuta’s pottery and weaving displays are moments from lapping waters, romantic or family-friendly villas have beautiful thatched roofs, and volcanic lakes offer once-in-a-lifetime photo ops. Enjoy Senggigi’s nightlife, catch the views from Malimbu Hill or drop by a monkey forest (where you’ll need to keep an eye on your bags!).
⛴ Lombok – Gili Islands (4 Nights): Lombok is the gateway to the trio of Indonesian Gili Islands, which you’ll reach by ferry. Paradise-like, blissful and unique with their horse and cart transportation, the Gilis are split between three islands- which one you visit is up to you. The “honeymoon” Gili Meno is more romantic, although Gili T’s vibrancy, nightlife and party opportunities make it the most popular.
Expect crystalline waters and a wealth of underwater marine life across the Gilis, from the sensational scuba diving and coral reef explorations to snorkelling. Nesting turtles here dot powder shores, sunsets are simply stunning and there’s a whole world to explore with night food markets. Lounge under coconut palms, find your inner self with outdoor yoga and absolutely pack the sunscreen.
⛴ Gili Islands- Bali Beach (5 Nights): Scenic ferry and transfer are how you’ll reach your next destination, where beach resorts were designed to be a little piece of heaven. Bali’s idyllic coastlines form sweeping stretches of light-coloured sands staggered by clustered villages, beautiful temples, waterfalls and wildlife. How much of that you explore is entirely up to you.
Whether you’re indulging under palms in upscale Nusa Dua, basking on black sands in Keramas Beach or exploring the temples near East Bali’s shores, you’ll be in for the ultimate beach relaxation. Spa services are as spot-on as the dining options, there’s always a market to browse and yes, the sunrises are as stunning as the sunsets.
✈ Optional Add-Ons (Or Return To UK): This is where you can opt to extend your holiday to a total lifestyle splurge in futuristic Singapore, or if you’d rather finish with Bali Beach, we’ll include all your transfers and your flight back to the UK.

As always, Chris was extremely helpful and knowledgeable. He gave me good advice on my travel plans and booked the holiday on my behalf. I've used eshores a number of times, and will continue to do so.

We haven’t been on our trip yet but based purely on the experience of booking the trip we are pleased with the result. It started with a bit of a hiccup as we spoke to a member of staff who never came back to us but when we reached back out again we were placed in the hands of Andy who has helped us book a 2 week trip to India including the golden triangle and then a few days on the beach. Andy was very patient with us with our changes to our tailor made holiday, even when we asked him to explore different areas only to revert back to the original plan. He also recommended moving the holiday back one week which created a saving of over £700 which meant we could upgrade the room for our beach stay in Goa. Andy was also available on weekends if we wanted to speak and regularly picked up the phone as opposed to keeping it to purely email dialogue. Hopefully the holiday will be amazing but based on the booking experience I would recommend eShores if you’re looking to book a tailor made holiday

We have booked two big holidays this year for a group of 8 and a group of 10, Rachel has coordinated our holidays with the utmost excellence, during the consultation we changed countires hotels and even flights but it did not phase Rachel one bit. Exceeds customer expectations by helping advising and supporting throughout the holiday. We are off to Thailand and Dubai in August and then followed by India and Thailand in November, I have rang emailed Rachel many times during the booking and I got very prompt responses even on her days off. Rachel is a credit to EShores and EShores is setting standards regarding customer focus.

I can’t praise Lynette at EShores enough. She has organised my trips perfectly to the point that I wouldn’t use anyone else. She listens to what I want or to the problem I have and comes up with a solution. Nothing is too much trouble. Try them out yourselves and I bet you become a repeater too!
