Customizable itinerary

Bali and Labuan Bajo islands make the perfect combination which will offer you both cultural and natural experiences. 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.

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.

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.

Very professional and went out of their way to help us in anyway that they could. Elly Do is a fantastic communicator and travel advisor. We really enjoyed our trip due to Asia Pioneer.

PERFECT international solo trip to Thailand!

This was my first international trip and I’m so happy I made the decision to use Asian pioneer travel. Cherry is the best! She was with me from beginning to end answering every question and accommodating different arrangements perfectly. She even checked up on me during my trip. Roni, my tour guide and driver did an amazing job in Bangkok with me. They are so proud of their country and even took me shopping on their spare time. Beautiful souls. Then when I traveled to Chang Rai and Mai my next tour guide Dare and Johnny are the best duo to have. Dave is so funny and make sure I was happy. Johnny provided snacks from his hometown and they were delicious. I will definitely be planning to use this company again and highly recommend. Hotels are beautiful. Food spots are up to par and overall completely stress free and comfortable!
