Customizable itinerary

Embark on a remarkable 10 days of Bali and Lombok vacations that will captivate your senses and ignite your spirit. 

Begin your journey in the cultural heart of Ubud, where you’ll cycle through verdant landscapes and charming villages, marveling at the awe-inspiring vistas of the Batur volcano and the iconic Tegalalang rice terraces.

Venture to the serene shores of Gili Trawangan, where you’ll bask in the laid-back island vibes and surrender to the soothing rhythms of the azure waters. Explore the vibrant marine life and unwind on the pristine beaches.

Continue your journey to the traditional Sasak dwellings of Senggigi, where you’ll witness the awe-inspiring panoramic views of the majestic Rinjani volcano, a testament to the raw power and enduring beauty of Bali’s natural landscapes.

As your transformative voyage draws to a close, savor the final moments in the coastal enclave of Jimbaran, where you can reflect on the profound experiences that have indelibly shaped your perspective.

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.

Cycling is the best way to see the famous Ubud rice fields and village life. Your trip will start from Baung Village and lead all the way to Nyuh Kuning Village. It’s a very safe ride with little traffic on the road, perfect with those without any cycling experience, it is recommended as an addition to an afternoon tour. All guides are locals who come from the surrounding regions and are trained to share their broad knowledge of Balinese culture and lifestyle with travelers.

If you only have time to do one tour whilst staying in Bali, this is the one! It will be a day packed with interest, education and fun!

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.

Memorable solo trip to Vietnam.

I had a wonderful 10 days trip covering South, Central and North Vietnam. I was assigned Gina from Asia Pioneer Travel as my travel designer and she was exceptional throughout the whole planning of the trip together and during my trip where she would regularly remind me of tour/pickup times, give me insightful tips and info too.

The tours were punctual and well organized and the tour guides were knowledgeable and accommodating when I needed a photo taken considering I was a solo traveler. I had an amazing experience in beautiful Vietnam!

I highly recommend Asia Pioneer Travel and look forward to planning more trips with them

Excellent services and will visit Vietnam again in near future

We enjoyed the trip despite the typhoon. Cherry was very helpful and kept us up-to-date on typhoon situation. She provided us alternate plan when we could not go to Ha Long Bay due to the closure of the cruise. Tour guide, Eric, quick to act due to the changing weather to ensure we did the outdoor activities in Ninh Binh especially the boat ride through the caves first. He added another activity, the Train Street at Hanoi with no extra cost. He is knowledgeable and kind. Ninh Binh is very scenic and surrounded by mountains and caves. We did the cooking class and really had fun and food were delicious. Vietnamese people are friendly and kind.
I highly recommending anyone to book with Asia Pioneer. Thank you Cherry for planning our trip.
