Customizable itinerary
Embark on an unforgettable 9-day journey from Bali to Labuan Bajo, where you will immerse yourself in a rich tapestry of cultural insights and breathtaking natural beauty.
In Bali, you will first tour around Ubud – the cultural centre of the island and then to the central and south of the island for its famous temples. You will fly from Bali to Labuan Bajo, where you will embark on a day-trip to see the giant lizards – Komodo dragon. These huge lizards are what have attracted visitors to this region in the first place. But you will explore the place offers more than that as you spend time diving in the fresh water and observing the extremely diverse marine life. Jimbaran will be your last stop on the trip, enjoy the town’s idyllic beach and delicious seafood before you leave.
A warm greeting awaits at Bali International Airport; your private guide and driver will meet you at the arrival lounge and take you directly to your hotel. Your knowledgeable guide will be happy to answer any questions along the way and will assist you with check-in and registration at the hotel.
After a short rest, we will drive from the south of Bali to Ubud. The Balinese kings, benevolent to the arts, transformed their court seat into a true global village. Ubud shops, galleries and craft shops blend traditional arts and crafts with modern design. Visiting European artists, attracted by the lure of an untouched tropical paradise, were encouraged to stay. They gave new impetus to the existing local arts while creating some exciting new forms in the process. This atmosphere reverbs to this day. A visit to Ubud means indulging in the local arts, visiting the ancient temples and enjoying the archetypical Balinese surroundings of steep gorges and sculpted rice fields.
Enjoy morning breakfast and day at your leisure to enjoy at the resort or self-explore the beautiful surrounding.

The gracious Barong dance in Batubulan, performed by professional actors and dancers. Proceed to the rightfully famous woodcarving center of Mas. Young artisans with amazing skills emblaze tropical woods with life.
Then we will drive further to the east and enjoy the breathtaking view over the volcano and the Lake Batur, while having lunch in Penelokan, Kintamani. This is the largest lake in Bali and can be found in the smaller, secondary caldera of the Batur volcano, right at the foot of Mount Abang.
We will make the final stop at Tegalalang rice terraces for you to enjoy its stunning view before heading back to your hotel in Ubud.

Free at leisure until departure time, meet your guide at the hotel lobby for transfer service back to Denpasar airport for your flight to Flores.

On the westernmost tip of the Island of Flores, the town of Labuan Bajo sits peacefully with an abundance of wonders for you to explore. Labuan Bajo was only a small fishing site but today it has flourished to become the gateway to many exotic destinations in East Nusa Tenggara. The extraordinary interest of travelers to the existence of the Komodo dragons who are locally called ora is a valuable alluring factor that amplified by its superb national park. The rest of the day will be at your leisure.

Out of body experience in Vietnam 👌👌👌
I came across Asia Pioneer Travel on Google search but I was very skeptical at first since the travel agency is outside my country SA, worried about the flow of communication. I am so glad I took a chance with them because our communication with Agent Adam has been seamless and easy flowing since day 1. I didn’t know specifically which places I wanted to visit in Vietnam but Adam tailor made my itinerary to the tee, I’ve witnessed most of Vietnam’s attractions and adventures. No preparations needed to be done on our side as Adam prepared everything from the English speaking guides, shuttle services to and from airports, domestic flights, visas even the cultural food we had to experience. Vietnam is such a beautiful country, rich with history, gorgeous architectural structures, beautiful people and amazing first time experiences,BANA Hills it’s a must see. Thank you so much Asia Pioneer Travel and loads of appreciation to you Adam…Till next time👌👌👌
Asia Pioneer in Indo China
We had a wonderful experience in Indo China with Asia Pioneer. It was partly group an partly private. Our guides were exceptional ,especially the private ones. We have used them before and chose to use them again, good choice. Our tour advisor Cherry took extremely good car of us to make sure everything was seamless. Our tours and food were great, saw and tasted so much. The hotels were ok and in hindsight we should have gone 4star instead of 3, but the were all more than adequate. All in all a wonderful experience. Highly recommend.
Elly from Asia Pioneer Travel shows us the culture, the beauty and the history of Vietnam and Cambodia.
From start to finish, the whole process of arranging our tour, booking, arrival and travelling was nothing other than exceptionally organized and communicated from Elly of Asia Pioneer.
Elly was very knowledgeable, hardworking always happy to please us.
After my street accident she helped me out with ambulance, hospital, communicating with my family back in USA and finally arranging my flight to Washington DC. Elly was far and beyond her responsibilities. I would highly recommend her and Asian Pioneer Travel.
Unbelievable experience in wonderful Vietnam
We chose Asia Pioneer based on Trip Advisor reviews, we were nervous using a local Vietnam company rather than a UK based one, however there was no need to be.
From start to finish, the whole process of tailoring our tour, booking, arrival and travelling was nothing other than exceptionally organised and communicated from Cherry of Asia Pioneer.
Vietnam has never really been on our radar, but what a place! Everything was memorable from the friendliness of everyone we met, the enthusiasm and knowledge of our guide, and the food is amazing.
We cannot recommend Cherry and the team at Asia Pioneer enough. The detailed itinerary Cherry put together went seamless with all guides and transfers waiting for us on time. There was a time when due to a delayed flight, we had missed the transfer to our hotel via their shuttle and within minutes Cherry had organised our transport after a couple of texts to her direct.
Asia Pioneer organised top hotels, great local guides and good transfers as we toured all of Vietnam. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend or use Asia Pioneer again.
Thanks for making this a once in a lifetime experience.
Brett, Dawn, Graeme and Jules.
