✈️ UK – Ubud (3 nights):
Day 1: Arrive in Bali and transfer to Ubud, the island’s cultural heart. On arrival at your luxury boutique hotel, you’ll have time to relax after your journey and it’s worth considering an optional Traditional Balinese Massage.
Day 2: After breakfast, the day begins in Batubulan village to watch the famous Barong Dance — a traditional performance depicting the eternal battle between good and evil. Continue north to admire the stunning rice terraces of Tegalalang, where you’ll enjoy a 30-minute scenic walk through an area rarely visited by tourists. Learn about Bali’s ancient Subak irrigation system, now a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Next, visit the holy water temple of Tirta Empul, where Balinese people come for spiritual cleansing. Lunch at a local restaurant. In the afternoon, explore Ubud Monkey Forest, a lush sanctuary home to more than 300 long-tailed macaques. Return to your hotel and enjoy free time to stroll through Ubud’s charming lanes.
Day 3: Today, immerse yourself in an authentic Balinese jungle adventure. Begin with a visit to a hidden waterfall where you can take a refreshing dip or simply enjoy the view. Continue with a jungle trek (1.5–3 hours) through the tropical forest surrounding Lake Tamblingan — a route untouched by mass tourism. Cross the serene lake by wooden canoe to reach an ancient Hindu temple still used for ceremonies. Lunch will be served in Munduk with breathtaking views over the tropical forest. Later, visit the stunning Jatiluwih rice terraces, another UNESCO‑protected site, and take a short walk through the lush fields before returning to Ubud.
🚗 Ubud – Amed (2 nights):
Day 4: After breakfast, depart for Bali’s northeast coast — a region of authenticity and simplicity. Visit Goa Gajah, the ‘Elephant Cave’, a sacred meditation site with stone carvings dating back to the 9th century. Continue to Klungkung to see Kerta Gosa, the ancient Court of Justice decorated with symbolic paintings on its ceiling. Stop at Goa Lawah, the famous Bat Cave Temple, where thousands of bats dwell inside a holy cave. Enjoy a simple lunch at a local restaurant. Visit the Royal Water Palace of Ujung, built in 1909, before arriving in Amed. Check in and relax by the sea.
Day 5: A full day at leisure to relax by the hotel pool or at Amed’s quiet beaches of dark volcanic sand. Optional: join local fishermen for a short outrigger boat cruise, go snorkelling, diving, or kayaking. At sunset, enjoy a refreshing coconut drink at a bamboo restaurant with a spectacular view of Mount Agung. Dinner at leisure.
🚗 Amed – Sidemen (2 nights):
Day 6: After breakfast, depart for Sidemen, one of the most authentic and scenic areas of Bali, surrounded by endless rice terraces. En route, visit Lempuyang Temple — one of Bali’s oldest and most sacred temples, offering a breathtaking view of Mount Agung through the iconic ‘Gates of Heaven’. Continue to Tirta Gangga, the Royal Water Palace, a peaceful garden of fountains and statues. Later, visit a traditional Balinese village near Sidemen, meet locals, and learn about honey production from stingless bees. Enjoy a refreshing coconut drink and continue with a gentle walk through rice fields and tropical forest before lunch at a local restaurant. Check in at your Sidemen hotel and enjoy the rest of the afternoon at leisure. Overnight in Sidemen.
Day 7: Today, immerse yourself in the spiritual and rural life of Sidemen. Begin the morning dressed in traditional Balinese attire to take part in a blessing ceremony at a small local temple — a unique and emotional experience. After breakfast, visit a weaving house to discover the art of songket textile making, followed by a gentle one-hour walk through rice paddies and farms. Meet local farmers and join short workshops: learn to make palm-leaf offerings, try Balinese calligraphy, prepare herbal ‘Jamu’ drinks, and taste the local rice wine ‘Arak’. End the experience with a buffet-style traditional Balinese lunch overlooking the valley. Optional: two-hour cycling tour through the countryside.
🚗 Sidemen – Beach Resort (7 nights): Transfer to the coast for a week of well-earned relaxation at one of Bali’s luxury beach resorts. Spend your days unwinding by the pool, enjoying spa treatments or exploring nearby coastal highlights. If you want something truly off the beaten track, it’s also a great option to switch your Bali beach stay for the wild and untouched island of Sumba, ideal for something truly unique.

We travelled with eShores to Andalucia last year, and Emily did an amazing job of compiling an itinerary with good but affordable hotels - we would heartily recommend each one that she chose for us, and all the arrangements between cities worked beautifully. This year we have gone back to her for another holiday and…
This is my second holiday with eshore. The service I received was excellent. Kelly was very professional, understood all my requirements and booked a fantastic holiday for us. It was a very pleasant experience dealing with Kelly and definitely recommend friends to book holidays with her. A real 5 star service.
As always, our go-to girl came through with a fab itinerary for our very last minute booking to USA. Kadie arranged another 3 city break and made sure everything fitted in with our requirements. Always use eShores for our bespoke long distance travels and they never fail to provide excellent service.
eShores is a fantastic company for crafting tailor made itineraries. I have just booked my fourth trip with them, this time to Colombia. Gavin was exceptionally helpful and nothing was too much trouble in meeting my wishes even though it requred a lot of back and forth adjustments. If this is anything like my previous…
Matt Got us everything we wanted for our USA trip
I have yet to take the holiday so I can't comment on the hotels and transport provided etc but Nick was very helpful with the booking. Despite me asking numerous questions he sorted out exactly what I asked for within my budget. Thank you
So far our experience with eShores has been great. Of course the real test will be when we are on holiday so hopefully this will continue :)
Nick did exactly what I asked for, was prompt and helpful. Couldn't have asked for anything more.
We had been recommended eshores by a friend who had holidayed in Croatia. We phoned and then used email to communicate with Chris Eaves who made the whole process very easy. He adjusted the holiday to exactly how we wanted it and was very speedy in his replies. We are hoping the holiday goes as…
The trip has been planned with our requirements fulfilled and also given options to change where we wanted. Looking forward to the trip and hope that all goes as smoothly as the booking side
So this is my second time using eshores and I won’t be going anywhere else to book my future holidays. I gave Claire a horrible job in finding what I needed and kept changing the brief but she persevered and found me the best holiday. I’m going in September and can’t wait. I’ll be back…
Excellent prompt service from Michelle. Hotels she suggested all look amazing and the itinerary for the four areas of Italy looked perfectly planned .
Nick was very understanding in as much as we did flex the itinerary quite a bit before booking and we have a holiday package which more than meets our needs.
Great and friendly customer service from Andy, as before. Andy always goes out of his way to find a holiday that matches our requirements.
Excellent service again from Dave. Having booked with e shores on a number of occasions they now understand our parameters. Price, days types of hotels etc.
Having dealt with eShores for several years, and with Dave Felton in particular, the latest holiday arranged by the Company was done smoothly, professionally and to our total satisfaction. Well done and keep up the great service.
Talked with Dave asking for assistance to finf flights for my sister and injured niece from Edinburgh to Perth in W.A. avoiding the Middle East. Dave again came up trumps with flights to suit and at a good price. First class service much appreciated.
Our holiday with Eshores was excellent. Hannah went above and beyond getting us exactly what we wanted and suited us. We couldn’t recommend them enough. The holiday was excellent and all the hotels (this was a multi centre holiday) were well situated particularly the Aston Kona by the sea on The Big Island it truly…
Quick and easy to contact and arrange a basic holiday in Europe. Good price too.
Greek island hopping sorted to perfection. Anna listened to everything I wanted and came up with a detailed plan which exceeded all my expectations. Every island on my to do list and with a choice of hotels. Thank you Anna.
