Everybody loves the idea of visiting Bali, but now is your chance to take the leap to experience it! In this retreat we are going to travel through some of the greatest parts of Bali- including Nusa Penida and Nusa Lembongan (two little islands off the coast of Bali with beauty that is absolutely unbelievable), and hit the best of the best highlights. You’ll experience the culture of Bali through real life experiences with the Balinese, take in sights that will make your jaw drop, have relaxation, excitement and adventure. There is truly no place like Bali and I know that you’re going to love what it has to offer you. We offer many types of activities within this retreat as we travel around.
At $4099 PER COUPLE, you really cannot do this kind of vacation at a better price. Leave it to Into the Wild Photo Camp to provide you with the BEST experience for the price!

If you try this exact trip by yourself without Into the Wild as your guide, you’ll have a blast BUT you’ll end up paying a lot more :). Plus- I’ve traveled Bali, Nusa Penida, and Nusa Lembongan already and I am now a pro and what to do and what not to do! I know the guides and people that get us the best experience.

When:
August 28-September 4, 2024. You DO NOT want to miss this. You will fly in and out of Denpasar International Airport in Bali, arriving anytime on August 28th but ideally around noon, and leaving ideally before noon on September 4, 2024. Just ask Wendy if you have any questions about flights.

BALI COUPLES TRIP ITINERARY
August 28th: Arrive in Denpasar International Airport, Bali, and head to the hotel in Ubud. This is about a 1.5 hour drive and Into the Wild will arrange your transport. Upon arriving to the hotel, you’ll hit the pool or take a nap and then we will gather for our first dinner. An early to bed night will help us get on the time schedule Bali is on.
August 29th: We’ll head out in the morning after breakfast to ride ATV’s and whitewater raft (class 3, not dangerous- just fun). My favorite part about the ATV rides is a wonderful glimpse into the working people of Bali- as you cruise through the villages and rice fields, you’ll see incredible beauty in the landscape and the every day lives of the Balinese people. We will eat lunch and then those who want to shop in Ubud will have the chance, those who want to relax will go back to the hotel. We will meet up for dinner, then sleep and rest.
August 30th: Today we will wake up for a short sunrise walk in the rice fields. It’s early- but you’ll be stunned at the beauty of the terraces when no other tourists are there. We’ll get breakfast after, and then visit a few waterfalls. The waterfalls are gorgeous and there are about 200 steps down and 200 steps back up to each. Following the waterfalls, we will visit Pura Tirta Empul, a temple with a Holy Water purification experience that’s quite meaningful. Finally, we will visit a balinese home, learning about their everyday lives- and then get dinner and rest at the hotel.
August 31st: Breakfast, and head out for a new destination: Nusa Penida and Nusa Lembongan! We will drive 1 hour and get on a boat to Nusa Penida- this takes about 40 minutes. Upon arrival, we will visit Diamond Beach and some other gorgeous viewpoints, then eat lunch. Later we’ll transfer to Nusa Lembongan via a short 10 minute boat ride. Nusa Lembongan is SO awesome- much more peaceful than the main island of Bali. We will check into our resort and relax for the night after we eat dinner at one of my most favorite restaurants in all of Bali.
September 1: Breakfast, and for those who’d like to, a snorkel excursion. You will see beautiful fish, perhaps manta rays, and who knows what else you may find! Lunch follows, and then you’ll have a free afternoon to relax, rent a scooter, or hit Mushroom Beach. Dinner, relaxation, and sleep.
September 2: Breakfast, followed by another relaxing day. Today we’ll go check out the tiny neighboring island of Ceningan by scooters. You can only get there on foot or on scooter and there’s a beautiful place called Blue Lagoon we can explore (cliff jumping for the brave if the tide is right). We’ll eat lunch on Ceningan and then head back for another absolutely lovely relaxing afternoon and evening on Nusa Lembongan.
September 3: Breakfast, and then we will say goodbye to Nusa Lembongan and Nusa Penida and head back to Bali. An hour and a half drive will take us down to the Uluwatu temple area, where we will watch the Kecak fire dancers for an unbelievable sunset performance. We’ll spend the night in this area.
September 4: Today is departure day and I’ll provide everyone with breakfast and rides back to the airport.
