(9 Days - Departs Daily on a Private Basis)

This leisurely yet comprehensive tour offers a glimpse into the heart and soul of Bali: local villages, important temples and festivals, beautiful beaches, lavish resorts, and artistic towns in Bali's interior.

The following tour includes accommodation at the Aman resorts in Bali; this tour is also available with accommodation at the Four Seasons resorts in Jimbaran Bay and Sayan.

• Begin with four nights at the exclusive Amankila -- a dramatically situated resort perched on a cliff overlooking the ocean. This resort is an ideal base for exloring Bali's deeply traditional eastern coast.
  
  

• Visit temples, royal palaces, and the villages of Tenganan and Sideman, both known for their high-quality textiles.
  
  

• Continue inland for four indulgent nights at the Amandari in a suite with private pool overlooking the Ayung Gorge.
  
  The Amandari was the first Aman property in Bali; with its outstanding restaurant and spa, and its design that resembles a Balinese village, this is perhaps the island's most cherished deluxe resort.
  
  
• Explore nearby towns, known for their artists, galleries, cafes, shops, and traditional Balinese architecture.
