Whether you master these skills or simply embrace the experience, it’s all part of the adventure! Following this, we’ll venture out towards the foothills of Mount Rinjani, treating ourselves to some delicious local food on the way. Our journey will begin at Benang Stokel, where twin waterfalls stand tall at an impressive height of 30 meters. Prepare to be awestruck again by the beauty of Benang Kelambu, where you can catch your breath and watch the water flow down surrounded by lush greenery. After a day of chasing waterfalls, we’ll head back to the hotel to gather for a delightful dinner and socialize with fellow travelers over a few cold beers.
Today’s the day! Start your day off right with the warmth of the morning sun and a revitalizing yoga session. Then, we’ll head to the beach to take some surfing lessons – who knows? You might discover a hidden talent! Spend the rest of the day lounging on the sand and cooling off in the water. We’ll end our day with a BBQ dinner infused with an Indonesian twist. Grab a Bintang and watch the sunset with your StillFam!
It’s time to unwind and savor the tranquillity of Gili Trawangan in the Gili Isles!

Today marks our final day in paradise.

Today, we’ll have the opportunity to experience more of Bali’s vibrant culture with visits to two famous temples.
