(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 Bali. One day, meet a Hindu high priestess for a spiritual purification ceremony and a Balian (traditional Balinese healer) who will customize his treatment according to your physical, emotional or spiritual needs. Artisans of Leisure will arrange additional activities according to your preferences such as private yoga and meditation sessions, a spice ceremony, a romance ritual and spa reservations. Also tour the region’s cultural highlights according to your interests: visit local artisan villages and the workshops of noted artists and craftsmen; peruse a local outdoor food market; visit the Sacred Monkey Forest Sanctuary; explore Ubud’s most interesting museums and art galleries; tour Balinese water palaces and important temples such as Goa Gajah (Elephant Cave) and Pura Gunung Kawi Sebatu; attend local festivals; or venture into the highlands to Pura Ulun Danu Beratan Temple, Kintamani and villages along the slopes of Mount Batur. One evening, attend a Balinese dance performance at Ubud’s royal palace. Upon request, Artisans of Leisure can also book river rafting, mountain biking and cooking classes. During free time, enjoy the town’s many cafes and boutiques, and take advantage of your private plunge pool and the resort’s spa.

Continue to eastern Bali—one of the island’s most traditional regions—and the Amankila, an exclusive resort perched 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 cultural 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. One day, enjoy a cruise (including the option for snorkeling) off the coast. Another day, take a private bicycle tour through verdant rice paddies and villages in the countryside. During free time, relax on the beach or by Amankila’s spectacular tiered infinity pool overlooking the ocean. If desired, Artisans of Leisure can also arrange hiking, diving, sailing, surfing and stand up paddleboarding excursions.

This is a great tour for relaxing, keeping fit and feeling good. We can customize all activities to your preferences and fitness level.
