Map for 9-Night Bali to Singapore 2.10.29

Volcanic craters and serene beaches reveal Indonesia’s hidden treasures.

As you embark on this 9-day adventure, be sure to visit Bali’s Tanah Lot Temple, an iconic shrine that appears to rise from the sea at high tide. In Probolinggo, the dramatic volcanic landscapes and sweeping craters of Mount Bromo command your attention before you set sail for remote Indonesian treasures only accessible by a small ship. Sink your toes into soft white sands lined with swaying palms and pristine waters in the Karimunjawa archipelago. You will then marvel at the photogenic shores of Belitung, perfectly framed by massive granite boulders and crystalline seas. Uncover rich Peranakan culture and centuries of maritime history within the charming UNESCO-listed streets of Malacca, and conclude with overnight stay in Singapore, offering the rare opportunity to encounter nocturnal creatures such as free-roaming Malayan tapirs and majestic lions on the famed Mandai Night Safari.

Itinerary

Benoa is nestled on Bali’s southern shores, where the air is fragrant with blooming frangipani and incense lingering in the temples. Journey along the dramatic southern coast to the majestic Uluwatu Temple, perched high upon sheer limestone cliffs where crashing cerulean waves meet the endless horizon. Or head north to Tanah Lot Temple, an iconic shrine that appears to rise from the sea at high tide. Beyond these sacred grounds, sun-drenched sands like those of Kuta Beach beckon, while the artsy community of Ubud promises local galleries surrounded by lush forests where you’ll find a sacred monkey sanctuary. To discover Bali’s agricultural heritage, explore the Jatiluwih Rice Terraces, a UNESCO World Heritage site where emerald-green landscapes stretch to the horizon.

On the less-traveled shores of northern Bali, Celukan Bawang offers access to off-the-beaten-path natural and cultural wonders. Lush emerald landscapes and tranquil black-sand beaches invite profound relaxation before rejuvenating your spirit in the therapeutic, mineral-rich waters of the sacred Banjar Hot Springs, ensconced within a tropical jungle. Just a short journey away, wander the peaceful, meditative grounds of Brahma Vihara Arama, Bali’s largest Buddhist monastery, featuring intricate stone carvings and sweeping ocean vistas. Further afield, experience the otherworldly beauty of Ulun Danu Beratan Temple poised on the lakeshore, and marvel at the UNESCO-listed Jatiluwih Rice Terraces, where green paddies unfurl in sculpted majesty.

Just inland from Probolinggo, discover the striking landscapes of Mount Bromo, an active volcano rising dramatically from an ethereal sea of sand within Bromo Tengger Semeru National Park. Embark on a Jeep expedition across this otherworldly landscape where a smoldering, mist-shrouded volcanic desert borders undulating forested hills. The Luhur Poten Temple at the volcano’s base honors the site as not only a remarkable natural wonder but also a spiritual center for the Tenggerese people. Returning to Probolinggo, you might conclude your day by shopping the local markets brimming with exotic spices and intricate batik textiles, immersing you in the authentic daily rhythms of this Indonesian port.

Laid-back and off the beaten track, the island of Belitung is a hidden Indonesian paradise defined by its otherworldly landscape. In this UNESCO Global Geopark, colossal granite rock formations rise dramatically from powdery white beaches and turquoise waters, creating a surreal coastal haven for the modern explorer. Relax amid the scenery on the beaches of Tanjung Tinggi and Tanjung Kelayang, or embark on an island-hopping expedition to nearby gems like Lengkuas Island, where a historic Dutch-era lighthouse offers panoramic vistas of the Java Sea. Beneath the shallow, glassy waters, snorkel the coral reefs of untouched marine sanctuaries.

In the UNESCO World Heritage city of Malacca, centuries of maritime history come alive. This Malaysian port reveals an extraordinary blend of Portuguese, Dutch and British colonial heritage intertwined with authentic Peranakan culture. Wander through the vibrant heart of Dutch Square to marvel at the red-hued Christ Church, and then explore the weathered ruins of the 16th-century fortress of A Famosa, one of the oldest surviving remnants of European colonial architecture in Asia. Step into the present by navigating the dynamic energy of Jonker Street, where you can find bespoke local crafts and rich culinary treasures such as Peranakan noodle soup, satay with peanut sauce, and pastries stuffed with native durian fruit.
