Remote Lands Offers Creative Ideas for Luxury Bali Holidays

June through September is one of the best times for a luxury vacation in Bali, Indonesia, for example.

With five-star resorts, excellent beaches and a lush hilly interior, first-rate shopping and rich culture (including art, architecture, performing arts and cuisine), Bali is an ideal summer destination for both honeymooners and families alike.

Choosing the right accommodation is the foundation of an indelible trip, and Remote Lands has excellent relationships with many luxury Bali hotels, including the Alila resorts, the three Amanresorts, the Oberoi, COMO Shambhala and Uma Ubud, Ayana Resort & Spa, the Legian, Four Seasons, and many others.

"A luxury Bali vacation with Remote Lands offers countless opportunities to experience authentic Balinese culture and interact with local people," said Catherine Heald, Remote Lands' co-founder and CEO. Among our favorite Bali activities: private Balinese dance and/or gamelan music instruction; hiking or biking through verdant rice-terrace landscapes; visiting secluded Hindu temples for private blessings with local priests; private cooking classes at local restaurants; surfing lessons off Seminyak beach; bespoke shopping tours focusing on Balinese art, traditional handicrafts, or contemporary fashion and jewelry boutiques; elephant riding and white-water rafting; making batiks with local artisans; sunrise volcano hikes; and much more.

Remote Lands is particularly excited about affordable options for private helicopter aerial tours over Bali, the perfect pinnacle to any family holiday or honeymoon. There truly is no better way to take in the variety of Bali's stunning physical environment, from the white-sand beaches of Seminyak to the cliffs of Uluwatu, from the green hills of Ubud to the imposing volcanoes of the north.

Remote Lands also designs trips beyond Bali, and cost-effective options for private air charters make getting from Bali to such destinations as Komodo Island, Raja Ampat and other locales easier than ever.
