Wellness Tour of Bali

(10 Days - Departs Daily on a Private Basis)
Ubud, Candidasa

Emphasizing the healthy, active and spiritual sides of Bali, this private luxury tour of the Island of the Gods features customized activities such as private yoga and meditation sessions, biking and hiking through the countryside, meetings with Balinese healers and more, as well as private cultural touring and accommodation at the island's top luxury resorts.

Begin in Ubud, the cultural heart of the island. One morning, meet with a Balinese healer or spiritual leader who will customize a treatment according to your physical, emotional or spiritual needs. Another morning, select ingredients from a local outdoor food market and learn to prepare traditional Balinese dishes during a cooking lesson. Artisans of Leisure will arrange additional experiences according to your preferences, such as private yoga and meditation sessions, spa treatments, a spice ceremony and a romance ritual. During flexible cultural touring with your private guide and driver, visit top artisan workshops and art galleries, tour Balinese water palaces and temples such as Goa Gajah and Pura Gunung Kawi Sebatu, see innovative bamboo architecture at Green Village, visit the Sacred Monkey Forest Sanctuary, and venture into the highlands to Pura Ulun Danu Beratan and Kintamani. One evening, attend a traditional Balinese dance performance at the Puri Saren Ubud royal palace. During leisure time, enjoy Ubud’s cafes and boutiques and take advantage of the resort’s spa. Artisans of Leisure can also arrange additional activities in the region, such as attending local festivals, crafts workshops, river rafting, hiking to beautiful waterfalls and biking in the countryside.

Continue to east Bali, one of the island's most traditional regions, for a stay at the exclusive Amankila resort, which perches on a cliff high above the ocean near Candidasa. Artisans of Leisure will coordinate wellness classes, rituals and sessions in the area, such as a Balinese cultural blessing, private yoga classes, spa treatments, hypnotherapy, reiki, shamanic healing and chakra balancing. During flexible touring with your private guide and driver, visit royal palaces, revered temples such as Pura Besakih on sacred Mount Agung, and Balinese villages known for their high-quality weavings and traditional architecture. Also see terraced rice fields and other beautiful Balinese landscapes. One day, enjoy an afternoon cruise (including the option for snorkeling) off the coast of east Bali. During free time, relax on the beach, book spa appointments or swim in the resort’s spectacular tiered infinity pool. If desired, Artisans of Leisure can also arrange hiking, biking, scuba diving and sailing excursions.

Testimonials

This was truly the trip of a lifetime…In New Zealand, all six of us caught trout, went horse riding, helicoptering, jet boating…all the while being cared for by the most wonderful people ever.
~ P.F., Gwynedd Valley, PA

Peru was absolutely outstanding. Our guide gave me the encouragement and help I needed in climbing to the very top of Huayna Picchu – an accomplishment of which I will always be thankful!! 
~ P.C., Smyrna, GA

We had a wonderful time in Asia!!! Highlights in Indonesia were the airplane view of the volcanoes on Java, walking each level of Borobudur by ourselves with no one else around, the trek to Selogriyo and its breathtaking terraced rice fields…
~ T.T., New York, NY
