"Selamat Datang di Bali! That's 'Welcome to Bali' in Indonesian. Today you will be picked up from Denpasar airport, where our driver will meet you and escort you to our hotel in Ubud. There, you'll meet your group leader, who will show you around and give you all the pro tips about Gili Trawangan and Lombok The rest of the day is yours to relax by the pool, or simply head out to explore Ubud on itself. In the evening, we will all get together for a group welcome dinner and drinks so we can get acquainted.

Take this time to slow down and enjoy the peace and quiet here in Gili Trawangan…well…during the daytime anyway! There are no cars or scooters, just the sound of the ocean, so enjoy some much needed R&R. Then saddle up and get on your bike! We'll stop to watch the sunset from the best spot on the island and you can take turns posing on the famous Gili Swing. Then it's time to dress up and get your groove on, island style!

Today, we'll explore some of the best snorkelling spots around Indonesia! You can jump straight off the boat and see underwater statues, stunning coral and the reason why we are all here…turtles! If you want to go deeper, we can also help arrange a PADI dive so you can really get up close and personal! We'll stop for lunch in Gili Air and have time to see the island before heading back for dinner, where we'll chow down on some traditional food and the catch of the day at the famous Night Markets. Tasty!

This morning - no alarms and nowhere to be! That's what it's all about! Enjoy some free time to chill by the pool, get stuck in a good book or enjoy a really long lie in! For lunch, we'll have a chance to enjoy the local cuisine first hand at our very own cooking class. We'll learn how to create traditional dishes, both sweet and savoury, with expert guidance from start to finish, but the best part? You get to eat all of your creations! Yum! Once we've devoured all that deliciousness, we'll have time to catch some rays before we see what's on tonight in Gili T!

Today we'll take a short boat ride to Lombok and drive south to Kuta. It's definitely more laid back here which may be a welcome change from the party lifestyle of Gili T! So, we'll be able to nurse our hangovers and spend the next few days enjoying our stunning accommodation and the secrets of Lombok. 

Before we head to our accommodation, we'll head to the foot of Mt Rinjani where we'll first see Benang Stokel, a twin waterfall standing at an impressive 30m. Then Benang Kelambu, a beautiful veil of water flowing straight from the greenery! This one is for all you waterfall lovers as we venture deep into the Lombok jungle.

After breakfast, we'll have a rare and privileged chance to see how the local Sasak tribe live. We'll immerse ourselves in the old community and learn all about their traditional customs. Once back, we'll have our final dinner and drinks together…I’m not crying, you are! 

Let's look back on all the good times over our last breakfast together. The trip may be over but you'll have memories that will last a lifetime. Whatever your next step is, you can discuss any onward travel plans you might have, or be interested in, with our expert Group Leaders who will make your trip home, or the rest of your travels, awesome. Without you, it wouldn't be possible...here's to all the good times and to our Wanderlands family! We lived together, we loved together and we travelled together! Until we meet again…
