Experience a unforgettable trip through the Indonesian archipelago, where Bali and its neighboring gems captivate with their pristine beaches, jungle waterfalls, volcano vistas, lush rice fields, and vibrant cultures, creating a true paradise for adventurous souls seeking an island-hopping journey. This itinerary includes in-depth travel information on the following locations: Canggu and Uluwatu on the island of Bali (with day trip suggestions to Ubud and other areas around the island), the town of Kuta on Bali’s neighboring island of Lombok, Nusa Lembongan, and a Komodo Island boat trip. Here’s exactly what you can expect from my Ultimate Bali Travel Guide 👇
This guide is the result of hours upon hours of planning, research, and my in-person experience and lessons-learned after spending 6 weeks in these areas during 2 different trips. The guide includes fun features such as an interactive map, directions that connect directly to your phone’s Google or Apple Maps app, and the exact coordinates to some of my favorite hidden gems, waterfalls, & beaches.
It lays out instructions to help you plan your perfect trip to this area including:
1. Over 30 activities (including 12 beaches, 11 waterfalls, 6 temples, where to get up close and personal with monkeys, stunning rice terraces you can walk through, the best snorkeling tour I have ever done, volcano treks, scenic viewpoints, surf spots, and more!)
2. 50+ accommodation suggestions including luxury Balinese villas, boutique hotels, tropical bungalows, secret island eco lodges, surf camps, yoga retreats, waterfront rooms with volcano views, and exactly where I stayed during my own trip ( & where I only spent on average $38 per night (based on 2 people sharing a room))!
3. What airport to fly into/out of, how to get around including scooter rental suggestions and contact information for the EXACT drivers I used, and exactly how to get from one location to the next!
4. Hyperlinks to every single resource you could need to book your trip directly from the guide
5. A cost breakdown of what I spent on my trip to help you budget for your own!
6. Logistics around traveling to Indonesia such as whether you’ll need a visa, how to prepare medically (vaccines you may need, travel insurance, and tips to avoid the dreaded Bali Belly), SIM cards, what to pack, and navigating the currency (using cash vs credit cards, tipping culture, etc.)
7. Behind the scenes exclusive photos and videos from me
Plus it’s mobile friendly when you download the Thatch App for free so you can easily access all of the info right from your phone!
I have hand-crafted this guide specifically for adventure travelers (like me!) and feel so confident you will have an amazing trip with this guide by your side 😏 As a part of your purchase of the guide, here are a few promises I can make you:
1. This is a LIVING guide: I will update it as I find more information and discover more places which means you have lifetime access to all updated information as it’s added!
2. I only make guides based on areas I have not only been to but know well! I include both activities that I have done myself as well as those that are on my bucketlist for next time I visit! I will always call out the ones I have not done yet and provide you the exact resources you need to experience them yourself!
3. These guides are completely transparent! You can be sure that all unfiltered opinions I provide are my own 🙃 If I include any sponsored information or affiliate links, I will be sure to call these out directly.
This guide truly is everything you need to plan an adventure-filled trip to Bali and its surrounding islands. I can’t wait to hear & see your adventure! Feel free to send me a DM with your feedback, fill out my feedback form at the bottom of the guide, & tag me in your photos! @katbennettphoto

I lived there for almost two years. I moved without knowing anything about their culture. For me, Asia was very far from my reach. I didn't even take it into account then.
The most complicated thing was joining a group of people there. They were very respectful to the point that not even a couple showed love for each other in the streets. On the other hand, everything was new to me, so I took advantage of every second to explore and learn more about Japan and my favorite city there: TOKYO.
CURIOSITIES:
If you don't have Japanese blood, you can't apply for Japanese citizenship.
Did you know that Japan has the highest life expectancy rate in the world?
86 years for women and 79 for men. The longest life expectancy highest within Japan is located on the island of Okinawa.
In addition, Shinjuku station in Tokyo is the busiest in the world. According to Wikipedia, 3.64 million people pass through this station daily. The station has 200 exits.
The most important thing: It's not very expensive.
You can eat for €7-8 and water always is free.
You can find accommodation for €25-30 per person.
Tokyo Metro costs €1.70 per person per journey.
High-speed Shinkansen train lines are expensive (but it is the easiest way to travel around Japan).
In this guide you'll find:

Two week guide to Japan: Osaka->Kyoto->Tokyo
This itinerary is designed to hit the major highlights of Japan and visits the top three cities of Japan for first time visitors. To get the most out of your travel time I suggest flying into Osaka and out of Tokyo. You can also of course flip this itinerary around and start in Tokyo and end in Osaka.
This trip only has you riding the Shinkansen (the bullet train) one time, between Kyoto and Tokyo, and thus does not require you to purchase a JR Rail pass.
