“My husband and I recently travelled to Vietnam and Cambodia with another couple from the 25th December 2011 and returned on the 15th January 2012. We wanted to let you know how much we enjoyed the tour and the experience. We would especially like to commend our tour guide in Hue and Hoi An, Tony who was absolutely marvelous. He could not do enough for us and he was very informative and very helpful. Also Sin in Siem Reap was fantastic as well as Mai Fam in Sapa. The experience of Vietnam was so enjoyable and your tour was so professional that we have recommended you to all our friends and I am sure they will follow our lead and travel with your company. Thank you again.”

“We would like to express our thanks to your company for a really wonderful holiday in Vietnam. Every aspect of it was just perfect. Ms Moon Tran made the arrangements very quickly, always answering every question and request with no delay, and making every effort to give us exactly what we wanted. Her judgment on the right hotels was perfect. The guides and drivers were wonderfully helpful. We particularly want to mention Mr Nguyen Viet Tran in Hue and Hoi An and Ms Pham Anh Ngoc in Ho Chi Minh City. They were amazing, so enthusiastic, helpful, friendly and knowledgeable. We have come back to Australia just singing your praises, and urging our friends to use your company for their holidays too. And of course we fell in love with Vietnam. Many thanks to you all.”

Itinerary
Day 1: Arrive Bali - UBUD
Upon arrival at Bali’s International Airport, meet your driver outside and depart for Ubud, located in the heart of Bali. Ubud is Bali’s artistic and cultural centre and offers an amazing range of activities and beautiful scenery; a perfect place to start your honeymoon! Upon arrival, check into your hotel and take your time settling into your new environment.
Day 2: UBUD
This morning, venture out of town to visit the stunning Tegallalang rice paddies. The terraced paddy fields that wind their way down the valley are a remarkable sight to behold and due to Bali’s tropical climate, the paddy fields are used year-round. Enjoy a leisurely hike of two hours through this enchanting landscape. Later in the afternoon, transfer to the home of a local artist with whom you can discuss the culture and arts that make this beautiful town the cultural heart of Bali. Listen to the stories and learn how art has evolved in Bali and Ubud in particular. Bid farewell to the artist and transfer to a small village near Ubud where a traditional dance performance is offered followed by a romantic dinner back in town.
Day 3: UBUD
Today is free at leisure to relax and enjoy the unique offerings of Ubud or the facilities at your hotel.
Day 4: UBUD To AMED
Depart for an amazing drive – in an open-top VW 181 – through rural Bali to Amed, on the eastern tip of Bali. The trip is cool and breezy and allows you to connect more closely with the local environment as you pass through several traditional villages. Arrive at Kintamani, which is located about 1,700 metres above sea level and enjoy the fresh tropical air and stunning views of the surrounding volcano peaks and lakes. Lunch is served upon arrival after which you continue your excursion with a visit to Lake Batur. The lake is Bali’s largest crater lake and provides water for an underground network of streams and hot springs. Board a local rustic boat and enjoy a short trip across the lake to absorb the magnificent scenery. Get back into your VW 181 again and drive towards Amed, a small fishing town on the eastern shores of Bali. Arrive at the hotel and enjoy free time to settle into your new surroundings.
Day 5: AMED
Enjoy an entire day at leisure in the surroundings of Amed. Famed for its beaches lined with outrigger fishing boats, Amed offers a haven of rest for those wanting to escape the crowds. Diving and snorkelling are among Amed’s most popular activities. Equipment for snorkelling can be rented from the hotel and staff can point you to the most appealing spots to view life under water. The empty beaches of Amed are great for quiet sunbathing or you might like to simply enjoy the pool and facilities of your hotel.
Day 6: Amed to Candidasa
Leave Amed after breakfast and drive through amazing scenery towards Candidasa. On the way, visit the picturesque surroundings of Tirta Gangga and its most distinctive feature - the Water Palace, which was built in 1946 by the King of Karangasam. The maze of pools and fountains are surrounded by a lush garden filled with stone carvings and statues. Continue with a visit to Pura Lempuyang Luhur, one of Bali’s nine directional temples and of great significance to the area. Observe on the way the magnificent scenery for which the area is famed and admire the terraced paddy fields that distinguish the landscape. Continue to Candidasa, a quiet sea-side retreat town that offers a haven of tranquillity. Arrive in time for lunch and enjoy an afternoon free at the beach or hotel pool. Opt to transfer in the afternoon to Pasir Putuh near Amlapura, Bali’s finest white sand beach.
Day 7: Candidasa to Semiyak
Depart Candidasa and head north towards Besakih temple, Bali’s largest temple and often referred to as the “Mother Temple”. The temple is located at the foot of Bali’s highest volcano, Mount Agung. Visit the temple and receive a blessing from a local Hindu priest. The blessings are meant to protect from illnesses and other bad spirits and aim to bring prosperity, longevity and happiness to people. From Besakih you transfer at once to Uluwatu, Bali’s new luxury destination. The Uluwatu cliffs tower 80 metres from the sea and offer majestic sunset views. Upon arrival, check into your hotel and enjoy free time in the afternoon before you transfer in the late afternoon for Pura Luhur Uluwatu, a striking temple perched on the cliffs. Admire the romantic sunset from the cliff and transfer to Jimbaran for a dreamy seafood dinner on the beach. Lighted by candles and served by a private butler, enjoy the fruits of the sea in peace.
Day 8: Semiyak
Enjoy an entire day at leisure in the beautiful surroundings of Seminyak, which is located on the southernmost tip of Bali on a peninsula called Nusa Dua. Literally meaning “second Island” Nusa Dua is a luxury retreat with perfect beaches and rugged scenery.
