ali: a virtual paradise on Earth. Millions of
visitors flock to this resplendent island each year;
however, few take time to look past the sugar-white
beaches and remote getaways. The Island of the Gods is
so much more. With a history that dates from at least
2,000 B.C., Bali has a rich story — one filled with tales
about deep-rooted spirituality, time-honored traditions,
varied forms of artistic expression, immense gratitude, and
inspiring contentedness — and myriad ways to share it:
treasured temples, impressive museums, bustling artisan
centers and, most notably, a warm, welcoming people.
Ubud, the island’s cultural capital, offers the perfect base
from which to explore this lush, green island and delve
into life on Bali. This dynamic yet tranquil region offers an
unparalleled sense of well-being, and visitors cannot help
but lose themselves in a quieter way of life that is the
essence of an authentic Balinese experience.
Active Travel
This program is
moderately paced with
a good balance of included
activities and excursions and
time to explore on your own.
Travelers should be physically
fit, able to walk distances of
up to three miles and navigate
stairs, hills and uneven terrain.
Our International
Explorations programs are
not for the average
tourist. They are designed
to give curious travelers an
extended, customizable
experience abroad. With an
itinerary that takes you to
must-see sites as well as offthe-beaten path treasures, you
can enjoy a once-in-a-lifetime
introduction to The Art of Living
in unparalleled destinations.
These unique journeys are
limited to 28 travelers and
feature three weeks’ deluxe
apartment-style accommodations
with modern amenities.
| UNESCO |
The Cultural Landscape of Bali Provence is the
UNESCO World Heritage site featured on this program.
Bali is a haven for the arts
and its myriad forms. Nearly
everywhere you look, artisans
are weaving gorgeous baskets,
carving intricate woodwork
or creating colorful batik.
However, Balinese dancing
will leave the most lasting
impression. Often divided into
sacred (“wali”) or
entertainment (“bebalihan”)
genres, Balinese dances can be
taught in professional dance
schools or theater companies
or at home, where mothers
often teach their young children
some of the classic movements.
Some of the most popular
dances include Pendet, a sacred
dance performed by females as
a welcoming or purifying
prelude to ceremonies or other
events; Legong, perhaps the
most recognizable sacred
dance, during which a couple
of women or girls dress in
colorful costumes and perform
beautiful movements, primarily
with the face, fingers and feet;
Barong, an entertainment
dance that symbolizes the fight
between good and evil; and
Kecak, an impressive
performance traditionally done
about sunset by a large group
of men depicting the story of
Ramayana through simple
movements and chanting.

This option will give

three-mile trek through the
rice fields and forests near
Ubud and learn about

at a wellness retreat. Finally,
experience Melukat, a spiritual
ritual that includes cleansing
your body with holy water,
offering a genuine prayer
and receiving a blessing
from a priest. Spirituality is
a vital aspect of Balinese life,
and these experiences will
leave you with a deeper
appreciation for yourself
and the local lifestyle.

ali: a virtual paradise on Earth. Millions of
visitors flock to this resplendent island each year;
however, few take time to look past the sugar-white
beaches and remote getaways. The Island of the Gods is
so much more. With a history that dates from at least
2,000 B.C., Bali has a rich story — one filled with tales
about deep-rooted spirituality, time-honored traditions,
varied forms of artistic expression, immense gratitude, and
inspiring contentedness — and myriad ways to share it:
treasured temples, impressive museums, bustling artisan
centers and, most notably, a warm, welcoming people.
Ubud, the island’s cultural capital, offers the perfect base
from which to explore this lush, green island and delve
into life on Bali. This dynamic yet tranquil region offers an
unparalleled sense of well-being, and visitors cannot help
but lose themselves in a quieter way of life that is the
essence of an authentic Balinese experience.
Active Travel
This program is
moderately paced with
a good balance of included
activities and excursions and
time to explore on your own.
Travelers should be physically
fit, able to walk distances of
up to three miles and navigate

| UNESCO |
The Cultural Landscape of Bali Provence is the
UNESCO World Heritage site featured on this program.
Bali is a haven for the arts
and its myriad forms. Nearly
everywhere you look, artisans
are weaving gorgeous baskets,
carving intricate woodwork
or creating colorful batik.
However, Balinese dancing
will leave the most lasting
impression. Often divided into
sacred (“wali”) or
entertainment (“bebalihan”)
genres, Balinese dances can be
taught in professional dance
schools or theater companies
or at home, where mothers
often teach their young children
some of the classic movements.
Some of the most popular
dances include Pendet, a sacred
dance performed by females as
a welcoming or purifying
prelude to ceremonies or other
events; Legong, perhaps the
most recognizable sacred
dance, during which a couple
of women or girls dress in
colorful costumes and perform
beautiful movements, primarily
with the face, fingers and feet;
Barong, an entertainment
dance that symbolizes the fight
between good and evil; and
Kecak, an impressive
performance traditionally done
about sunset by a large group
of men depicting the story of
Ramayana through simple
movements and chanting.

This option will give

rice fields and forests near
Ubud and learn about

massage and a blessing ritual,
at a wellness retreat. Finally,
experience Melukat, a spiritual
ritual that includes cleansing
your body with holy water,
offering a genuine prayer
and receiving a blessing
from a priest. Spirituality is
a vital aspect of Balinese life,
and these experiences will
leave you with a deeper
appreciation for yourself
and the local lifestyle.

ali: a virtual paradise on Earth. Millions of
visitors flock to this resplendent island each year;
however, few take time to look past the sugar-white
beaches and remote getaways. The Island of the Gods is
so much more. With a history that dates from at least
2,000 B.C., Bali has a rich story — one filled with tales
about deep-rooted spirituality, time-honored traditions,
varied forms of artistic expression, immense gratitude, and
inspiring contentedness — and myriad ways to share it:
treasured temples, impressive museums, bustling artisan
centers and, most notably, a warm, welcoming people.
Ubud, the island’s cultural capital, offers the perfect base
from which to explore this lush, green island and delve
into life on Bali. This dynamic yet tranquil region offers an
unparalleled sense of well-being, and visitors cannot help
but lose themselves in a quieter way of life that is the
essence of an authentic Balinese experience.
Active Travel
This program is
moderately paced with
a good balance of included
activities and excursions and
time to explore on your own.
Travelers should be physically
fit, able to walk distances of
up to three miles and navigate
stairs, hills and uneven terrain.
Our International
Explorations programs are
not for the average

| UNESCO |
The Cultural Landscape of Bali Provence is the
UNESCO World Heritage site featured on this program.
Bali is a haven for the arts
and its myriad forms. Nearly
everywhere you look, artisans
are weaving gorgeous baskets,
carving intricate woodwork
or creating colorful batik.
However, Balinese dancing
will leave the most lasting
impression. Often divided into
sacred (“wali”) or
entertainment (“bebalihan”)
genres, Balinese dances can be
taught in professional dance
schools or theater companies
or at home, where mothers
often teach their young children
some of the classic movements.
Some of the most popular
dances include Pendet, a sacred
dance performed by females as
a welcoming or purifying
prelude to ceremonies or other
events; Legong, perhaps the
most recognizable sacred
dance, during which a couple
of women or girls dress in
colorful costumes and perform
beautiful movements, primarily
with the face, fingers and feet;
Barong, an entertainment
dance that symbolizes the fight
between good and evil; and
Kecak, an impressive
performance traditionally done
about sunset by a large group
of men depicting the story of
Ramayana through simple
movements and chanting.

ali: a virtual paradise on Earth. Millions of
visitors flock to this resplendent island each year;
however, few take time to look past the sugar-white
beaches and remote getaways. The Island of the Gods is
so much more. With a history that dates from at least
2,000 B.C., Bali has a rich story — one filled with tales
about deep-rooted spirituality, time-honored traditions,
varied forms of artistic expression, immense gratitude, and
inspiring contentedness — and myriad ways to share it:
treasured temples, impressive museums, bustling artisan
centers and, most notably, a warm, welcoming people.
Ubud, the island’s cultural capital, offers the perfect base
from which to explore this lush, green island and delve
into life on Bali. This dynamic yet tranquil region offers an
unparalleled sense of well-being, and visitors cannot help
but lose themselves in a quieter way of life that is the
essence of an authentic Balinese experience.
Active Travel
This program is
moderately paced with
a good balance of included
activities and excursions and
time to explore on your own.
Travelers should be physically
fit, able to walk distances of
up to three miles and navigate
stairs, hills and uneven terrain.
Our International
Explorations programs are
not for the average
tourist. They are designed
to give curious travelers an
extended, customizable
experience abroad. With an
itinerary that takes you to
must-see sites as well as offthe-beaten path treasures, you
can enjoy a once-in-a-lifetime
introduction to The Art of Living
in unparalleled destinations.
These unique journeys are
limited to 28 travelers and
feature three weeks’ deluxe
apartment-style accommodations
with modern amenities.
| UNESCO |
The Cultural Landscape of Bali Provence is the
UNESCO World Heritage site featured on this program.
Bali is a haven for the arts
and its myriad forms. Nearly
everywhere you look, artisans
are weaving gorgeous baskets,
carving intricate woodwork
or creating colorful batik.
However, Balinese dancing
will leave the most lasting
impression. Often divided into
sacred (“wali”) or
entertainment (“bebalihan”)
genres, Balinese dances can be
taught in professional dance
schools or theater companies
or at home, where mothers
often teach their young children
some of the classic movements.
Some of the most popular
dances include Pendet, a sacred
dance performed by females as
a welcoming or purifying
prelude to ceremonies or other
events; Legong, perhaps the
most recognizable sacred
dance, during which a couple
of women or girls dress in
colorful costumes and perform
beautiful movements, primarily
with the face, fingers and feet;
Barong, an entertainment
dance that symbolizes the fight
between good and evil; and
Kecak, an impressive
performance traditionally done
about sunset by a large group
of men depicting the story of
Ramayana through simple
movements and chanting.
