Yoga Vacation in Bali – the Island of Gods – 11 nights

Bali is known as the island of the gods. Apart from being divine, it is truly magical! Perhaps the most famous and amazingly beautiful island of Indonesia.

During this trip we will not only enjoy the marvelous island but will have the opportunity to take care of out soul and body by practicing yoga.

Every morning we will welcome the day with a yoga practice at the ocean shore and will relax on the island in a luxury villa with a spectacular view.

After 6 days and nights walking and exploring the island, we will head by boat to the still unspoilt Gilli Islands. We will stay there for 5 days. Gili are three islands right next to Bali, where we will indulge in meditation and entertainment. We will welcome and say goodbye to the Sun in a magical faery of colors, fruits, wild beaches, dances, walks and meditations.

Here are some recommendations about what to see:

1. Devote time to temples. Large and famous or small and quiet, the temples here are numerous and beautiful. It is not by chance that Bali is called “”the Island of the Thousand Temples””.

2. Walk around the Bali Bird Park. There you will find a wonderful collection of Indonesian, African and South American birds. The place is also a botanical garden with over 2,000 tropical plants, which shelters about 1000 exotic birds of 250 different genera. The Bali Orchid Garden with its magical collection of orchids is also worth visiting.

3. Meet the Ubud monkeys by visiting the Ubud Monkey Forest. Ubud is a small and lively village on Bali Island and the Monkey Forest is one of the most famous attractions there. It is certainly an unusual and memorable experience to walk among those curious and agile animals and feed them bananas!

4. Plan a walk through a mangrove forest or the rice fields.

5. Have a cup of the premium and exotic coffee Luwak. It is the most expensive and unusual coffee in the world!

6. Taste the food of the gods. This is obligatory! Treat yourself to a dinner outdoors, under the stars, have seafood and local specialties, as well as breakfast with exotic fruits. On Bali the the food is heavenly delicious and it is really a gift from the gods!

7. Enjoy the beaches! You will find many opportunities for varios sports activities. Surfing, diving, trips by boat, yacht or a cruise. One of the most famous beaches is Kuta Beach and it is a great place to watch a dramatic and impressive sunset. Jimbaran is quieter and more peaceful. It is also worth walking along Sanur Beach. Uluwatu Beach is the most suitable for surfing.

Bonus advice:

+ Free your mind and heart from all that can limit your perceptions! This will help you to feel and absorb the local authentic and exotic atmosphere, you will see the beautiful nature and you will experience deep spirituality! This would be a feast for all senses!

+ Talk to local people! They are extremely friendly, polite and hospitable!

+ Bargain! When you buy something from local markets or from the street, bargaining is a mandatory “”sport””! Indulge and enjoy unreservedly all colors, sights, smells, sounds and tastes that Bali has to offer. Only in this way will you discover the magic of this remarkable island!

*All optional trips can be mixed in various tours according to the preferences of the group.
