The Journey

  • Private temple ceremony with a priest's family
  • Uluwatu sunset and the Kecak fire dance
  • Two nights on the quieter east coast

Things you might ask

And the honest answers.

April–October is the dry season; July–August is peak. April and October are our favourite shoulder windows.

We argue it's the minimum. Anything less and you're in transit between the two Balis.
