We arrived at Ngurah Rai International Airport to a warm Balinese welcome and transferred to our hotel in Kuta. The afternoon was spent relaxing by the pool and settling into our tropical surroundings. The day ended beautifully with a cozy family dinner at a local restaurant, setting the tone for the exciting days ahead.

After a hearty breakfast, we dived into action with thrilling water sports at Tanjung Benoa — including banana boat rides and jet skiing. Post-adventure, we spent quality family time at Nusa Dua Beach, soaking up the sun and building sandcastles. It was a day full of laughter and beachside fun.

Today, we explored Bali’s cultural heart—Ubud. Our first stop was the lush Sacred Monkey Forest Sanctuary, followed by visits to Ubud Palace and the bustling Ubud Art Market. After a delightful Balinese lunch, we walked through the iconic Tegalalang Rice Terrace, immersing ourselves in the island’s natural beauty.

An early start took us on a speedboat to Nusa Penida, one of Bali’s most stunning offshore islands. We marveled at the majestic cliffs of Kelingking Beach, explored Broken Beach and Angel’s Billabong, and enjoyed snorkeling at Crystal Bay. A scenic lunch overlooking the ocean rounded off the day before returning to Kuta.

Today’s highlight was a visit to Bali Safari & Marine Park, where we encountered rare animals like the white tiger and Komodo dragon. From safari rides to traditional Balinese performances, the park delivered adventure and education in equal measure. We shared a memorable lunch on-site before heading back with happy hearts.

Our evening began with a visit to the majestic Uluwatu Temple, perched atop a cliff with panoramic ocean views. As the sun dipped into the sea, we watched the dramatic Kecak Fire Dance performance, followed by a romantic family seafood dinner at Jimbaran Bay—a perfect fusion of culture and cuisine.

Relaxation A relaxed morning led us to the vibrant Kuta markets, where we picked up souvenirs and local handicrafts. In the afternoon, we indulged in a soothing family spa session at the hotel, followed by a delightful dinner at a local eatery. A slower-paced day that refreshed both body and soul.

We explored the cooler northern highlands of Munduk, starting with a scenic trek to Munduk Waterfall. From the Twin Lakes Viewpoint, we admired sweeping vistas before heading to the serene Ulun Danu Beratan Temple nestled by a mountain lake. A day that blended nature and spirituality.

Excitement filled the air as we spent the day at Waterbom Bali, Southeast Asia’s #1 water park. From twisting slides to lazy rivers, there was non-stop joy for every age. A relaxed lunch poolside and countless laughs made this one of the most fun-filled days of our trip.

Farewell Bali With a heavy heart and beautiful memories, we checked out of our hotel and made our way to Ngurah Rai International Airport. This journey left us closer as a family, with stories we’ll treasure forever and dreams of returning to Bali’s paradise again.
