As the art and cultural hub in Bali, there’s plenty to keep yourself entertained in Ubud for a good couple of days. Here’s what we did.
Bali
Ubud
We spent 3 nights just outside Ubud, then a further three nights in the heart of the town. Unless you’re planning on spending some time at a yoga retreat or finding yourself a detox centre, 3 days here should be plenty to explore the town and the countryside.
Our top places to visit in Lembongan
The island isn’t very big and a day is plenty to get around so hop on a scooter and check these spots out. We started with the Devil’s Tear.
Nusa Lembongan
We didn’t know too much about the island before getting there, only that it was beautiful and we should definitely make the stop on the way to the Gilis. We’re glad we did. Turquoise waters, golden sand and beachside bars made this place ‘the dream’.
Where to eat and drink in Seminyak
So we weren’t exactly sticking to a strict budget when we arrived in Seminyak, given it was the start of our South East Asia adventure. It was our turn to splurge, indulge and try the best of the local spots, which we’d heard so much about. The places below didn’t disappoint.
10 day itinerary for Bali
10 day itinerary for Bali – Whether you’ve got one or two weeks for your trip in Bali, below is the route we took and would recommend to others. While not all the places below are the usual tourist traps i.e. Sanur, the slower pace of life is nicer than the hustle and bustle of Seminyak and Kuta. Note to reader: Stay away from Kuta. It’s a hole.
