Bali: The Online Travel Guide

Welcome to Bali...

Bali, the island christened by Nehru as the 'Dawn of the world' never ceases to facinate the visitor. Her breathtaking beauty, her friendly people and her strictly guarded traditions provide the traveller a sense of adventure and a genuine cultural experience.

Island of the Gods. The beautiful island of Bali is one of the world's favorite holiday destinations. Here you can climb a volcano, walk through beautiful terraced rice fields and jungles, swim and surf some of the worlds most famous beaches, visit magnificent temples and traditional villages and meet some of the world's most culturally rich and fascinating people.

Over the past decade or two, tourist numbers in Bali have soared towards one million visitors per year. The majority of tourists take advantage of package holiday deals that include all fares and hotel accommodation, generally in the resort areas of the south; Kuta Beach, Sanur or Nusa Dua.

But Bali has more to offer than hotel pools and tropical cocktails sipped in the shade of coconut palms and the occasional trek into the village streets to purchase souvenirs or fake watches.

Thanks for visiting our new-look online travel guide...

To see the Bali of lush green tropical jungles and spectacular rice terraces perched on the sides of towering mountains, ancient temples and the events of everyday life amongst the local population, the traveller has to put aside the protection of the hotel walls and venture outside of the tourist area that is defined by Kuta, Sanur and Nusa Dua.

Let us be your guide as you explore the parts of Bali that are forgotten by the glossy brochures.
