Bali: common questions
- Yes. Snorkelling, scuba and water sports are optional, and the boats to Nusa Penida and the Gilis carry life jackets. Tell us and we plan the Gili days around the beach instead.
- In the dry season they are usually fine. From November to March the sea can be choppy and some sailings are cancelled. We keep a buffer so a missed ferry does not cost you a flight.
- No. ATV rides, scuba, water sports and the Bali swing are paid on the day or added in advance. Island entry taxes at Nusa Penida and Gili Trawangan are also extra.
- No. Every trip is planned for one family, couple or group of friends at a time: flights, hotels, drivers, guides and sightseeing, all chosen for you.
- Message us on WhatsApp — there is no form. Tell us roughly where, roughly when, and who is travelling. A trip designer replies personally, usually the same day, and follows up with a call to understand your priorities before sending a proposal.
- Where we show a figure it is indicative, per couple, and all-inclusive — flights, visa, hotels, sightseeing, transfers, breakfast and dinner. It is a planning number, not a quote: it is confirmed once hotels and transport are actually held, and it moves with the exchange rate on the day of booking. Trips without a figure are priced on enquiry.
- Yes. On our Europe trips both are included in the indicative price — return flights and visa application support and fees. Elsewhere we book flights through your preferred airline alliance and co-ordinate visa documentation separately.
