*Standard check-in time is 3PM. You will have the option to add early check-in at the next step of the booking process. To guarantee optional services, we recommend that you add them to your current booking, as they are subject to availability.

Breakfast at the hotel. Go on a walking tour to explore the history, culture, and lifestyles of Singapore. Proceed to Little India– a haven for the Indian community that embodies the vibrant and colorful pulse of the nation within Singapore. Continue to the mouth of the Singapore River, where you'll see the Merlion, a national icon representing Singapore’s humble beginning as a fishing village.

Breakfast at the hotel. It's time to leave Singapore and continue on towards your next adventure. Transfer to the airport for a flight to Bali, Indonesia. On arriving at Denpasar Airport, begin your journey with a transfer by car to the artistic village of Ubud. Surrounded by rainforest and rice paddies in the island’s central foothills, Ubud is known as a centre of traditional Indonesian dance, craft, and sacred religious sites. More than three million travellers visit Ubud every year as its interior location offers an ideal base to explore all that Bali has to offer.

After checking into your hotel, you are free to explore the village at your leisure. Take in your new surroundings with a stroll along the main boulevard, try some local cuisine, or just relax by the pool. Overnight stay in Ubud.

Breakfast at the hotel. The day begins with an included trip outside the town centre to see Bali’s most famous rice paddy in Tegalalang, followed by a stop at Kintamani. This picturesque town situated in a mountainous region is known for its panoramic views over verdant valleys, a lake and an active volcano. Unlike the typical heat and humidity Bali is known for, Kintamani is often noted for its fresh, cool air.

After coming back down into central Bali, visit Tirta Empul, a Hindu water temple with natural mineral springs. The Balinese believe that the waters have purifying properties and regularly come to bathe and pray to Vishnu, the god to whom the temple is dedicated. On the drive back to the hotel in Ubud, make one final stop at the stunning, 15-metre tall Tegenungan Waterfall. Overnight stay in Ubud.

Breakfast at the hotel. On this free day, take the morning to relax in your room or wander Ubud to your heart’s content.

Overnight stay in Ubud.

*Optional excursion to Besakih: Visit the oldest temple in Bali before heading to Penglipuran, a village located in the Bangli Regency. This indigenous village offers a unique opportunity to see firsthand how people have lived for centuries, while also appreciating natural beauty among the rice paddies and the Goa Lawah Cave that you’ll see along the way.

Then, meet the wild monkeys of Alas Kedaton known locally as the holy monkey forest. Surrounded by the fragrant nutmeg trees, explore this stunning habitat that is home to “Flying Fox” fruit bats and several varieties of large primate.

End the day with another breathtaking landscape as the sun sets over the Tanah Lot Temple, built on a cliff overlooking the sea.

Enjoy the sunset with sweeping views over the temple, as locals perform the traditional Kecak Dance. This daily ritual is performed at sunset every day at Uluwatu and other Balinese temples, and is believed to cause the dancers to enter a trance-like state. On the way back to the hotel after sunset, stop for an included fresh and delicious dinner in Jimbaran.

Please note that the Uluwatu Temple is known for its abundant population of wild Macaque monkeys. Please be careful with all belongings including hats, cameras, and phones as they are known to take items from visiting tourists.
