Sailing Through Indonesia In Style

Welcome to Jogjakarta – one of the favorite destinations in Indonesia.

Your driver will meet you at the arrival hall and you will transfer by private car to the hotel downtown.

Enjoy the remainder of the day at leisure – to rest and relax by the pool and in the spa or to explore the charming town on your own.

In the morning, take a short tour around the Indonesia-beloved city.
Start with the Sultan’s Palace, designed to represent central aspects of Javanese cosmology and a fine example of Javanese sultanate architecture.

Next, visit the first sultan’s harem – ‘Taman Sari’, a water palace and garden built over 200 years ago.

Continue to Beringharjo Traditional Market, Yogyakarta’s biggest and noisiest market that dates back to the 18th century. Peruse its excellent selection of batiks, sarongs, keris, and antiques as you explore its bustling pathways.

After the tour and your lunch, the driver will meet you again, for a ride to the fabulous resort by the largest Buddhist temple – Borobudur. Enjoy the evening at this beautiful hotel and make sure to go to bed early – we’re up before sunrise tomorrow!

Leave your hotel at approx. 03:30 to catch the spectacular sunrise at Borobudur. As sunlight casts intricate shadows over the ruins of Borobudur, savor this visually stunning phenomenon amidst the tranquil peace of the early morning.

As day breaks, explore this massive Buddhist Temple (the largest in the world) and discover the incredible history behind its construction. Comprised of thousands of volcanic and river stone blocks, the temple was assembled entirely by human labor and took more than 75 years to complete. These days, the UNESCO Heritage site is still visible in its full glory, with magnificent carvings and an unusual bulky structure.

Coffee/tea and a light snack will be provided in a local restaurant. Continue to the nearby Buddhist temples of Pawon and Mendut, before returning to your hotel.

Relax at your stunning hotel or explore the neighborhood – observe the life of the locals, living at the foot of the iconic structure, savor the local flavors, find the unique pieces of batik and other Indonesian craftworks.

Back at the hotel – immerse yourself in luxury and guilt-free pleasure at the Spa and by the pool.

Meet your driver after breakfast for a short ride to the Yogyakarta airport. After a short flight with the local airlines, find yourself in Bali – the Island of Gods, and the only Hindu Island of Indonesia.

Your driver will bring you to the hotel in the cultural capital of Bali 0 Ubud.

For the remainder of a day at leisure, enjoy exploring the little cafes, restaurants, and galleries!

A day for your body and soul!

Arriving at The Royal Pita Maha, you will be escorted to the Ayung Garden for a purification ceremony. Swapping your clothes for sarong and sash, pray at the main hotel’s temple, and experience a purification ceremony at the Holy Spring Pool.

After organic lunch, treat yourself to a set of SPA treatments.

Refresh yourself with fresh fruit juice or herbal tea and enjoy the exclusive facilities such as the swimming pool, Jacuzzi, and the herbal mist sauna.

Afternoon at leisure.

Today we journey to Pakerisan Valley, an 8th Century World Heritage site and the birthplace of the Hindu Darma religion, to uncover the historical religious roots of modern-day Bali.

The day starts with a short visit to the very first Hindu temple in Bali, encircled by a small village that grew around this sacred structure. Here we meet our guide for the day, an experienced researcher of Balinese spiritualism who will lead us to a temple nestled in the jungle. He will describe how people connect with God through the temple and demonstrate how to open your mind to the spiritual world.

Next, Tirtha Mengening, a very small temple located next to Holy Spring-fed pools. Tirtha Mengening roughly translates into “child waters” and offers a cleansing purification ritual conducted by a Balinese priest.

After the ceremony, take a plunge into the cool spring waters of a gentle river, shaded by a large tree. Soak in the serene atmosphere, for this temple is seldom visited by tourists despite being one of the most sacred in the region.

Lunch at a special place, surrounded by lush rice fields still grown from the original species of rice brought by the first Hindu priests in the 8th Century. After lunch, there is an opportunity to visit the priest’s house where he will guide us in quiet meditation.

Return to your hotel in the late afternoon and enjoy your evening at leisure!

Meet your guide in the hotel’s lobby early in the morning and travel to Jatiluwih for a 2-hour cycle trip on our electric bikes. Starting from near Batukaru temple (no temple visit), cycle through Jatiluwih’s beautiful landscapes and listen to your experienced guide share their fascinating knowledge of this UNESCO Heritage Site. The scenery is rich and varied, scattered with dense jungles, giant bamboo forests, local villages, and verdant valleys. Consisting of more than 300 hectares of splendid tropical vegetation, Jatiluwih is a truly stunning region to explore.

Later tonight, lose yourself in the breathtaking Balinese landscapes and the gentle flow of the Ayung River in this unforgettably romantic setting, complete with 100 flickering candles and showers of delicate flower petals.

Our chefs have created a 4-course tasting menu for this special night, along with matching wine recommendations. Savor the delicious food and romantic atmosphere amidst stunning natural beauty.

A day to explore Bali on your own – whether it’s finding more temples, meditating, partaking in yoga class, shopping, or heading to the beach. Don’t miss out on Balinese cuisine and explore the culinary scene of high-end restaurants as well as street food stalls. Make the best of the day and don’t forget to pack for tomorrow!
