With tropical beaches, varied cultural attractions, and a year-round temperate climate, Bali offers the perfect refuge from a harsh winter. The Bali Getaway (13 days/12 nights) is a comprehensive introduction to the island with plenty of leisure time factored in. Begin with four nights at The Legian, where you will visit nearby temples and spend a good amount of time enjoying the white sand beach. Head next to Ubud, the cultural and artistic heart of the island, for four nights at the new Uma Ubud. Take a cycling excursion down Mt. Batur, enjoy a traditional dance performance, and visit the shops and galleries that have made Ubud famous. From Ubud, transfer to the Matahari Beach Resort in Lovina to take advantage of the world-class snorkeling off Menjangan Island. Conclude the trip with a final night at the Oberoi, a fittingly luxurious end to a perfect getaway vacation.
