Following lunch, it’s time for the real adventure: white water rafting!

Today we’re off to Canggu, the most lively spot in Bali at the moment. With some of the best international restaurants, beach bars, and amazing waves, Canggu is a top pick for young travellers and a haven for surfers. For the next three nights, we’ll dive into the lively Canggu scene, embracing everything it has to offer.

Today, we’ll have the opportunity to experience more of Bali’s vibrant culture with visits to two famous temples. First up is the Royal Temple of Taman Ayun, known for its lush gardens and intricate architecture. Once part of the Kingdom of Mangwi, it is a truly serene oasis where you can get away from the hustle and bustle of Canggu. After, we’ll head to the majestic Tanah Lot temple (meaning Land in the Sea), where you’ll find the temple perched on a rock, surrounded by the ocean and full of spiritual significance. We will head back to the hotel around 2 PM and the rest of the day is yours to relax by the pool or catch another sunset before dinner.

Following up on our free day, we’ll head back to the hotel for some much-needed relaxation. Right before the sun sets, we’ll all make our way to Canggu’s most popular beach club, savoring every moment of our final evening in the Gu.

Experience the warmth of Lombok from the moment you step foot on the island! Dive into your journey by soaking up the tropical sunshine poolside or exploring Kuta Lombok. As the sun sets, join your new family for an unforgettable evening of dining and drinks. Let Lombok be your gateway to an extraordinary adventure that will stay with you forever.

Today, we’ll immerse ourselves in the rich cultural heritage and customs of a local Sasak Village. Here, we’ll have the opportunity to learn traditional techniques that have been passed down through generations, providing a unique insight into the community’s way of life. 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 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! With no cars or scooters, you can explore the island by bike or foot, taking in the soothing sound of the ocean, the pristine white sandy beaches, and crystal clear waters. As the sun sets, let’s gather on the beach with a Bintang and enjoy another beautiful sunset. For those feeling up to it, we’ll kick off the rest of the night with some karaoke and a night out on the town! Let’s enjoy responsibly and have a blast tonight!

Get ready for some island hopping! On our private trip, we’ll explore Gili Trawangan and Gili Meno, marvelling at underwater statues, vibrant coral reefs, and fascinating marine life. There is no better hangover cure than a refreshing dip in crystal-clear waters and swimming with the turtles. After a beachfront lunch on Gili Meno, we’ll chase the sunset and sip ice-cold cocktails at the island’s best beach bars.

Today marks our final day in paradise. Enjoy a laid-back morning and afternoon soaking up the island vibes by the pool (don’t forget your sunscreen!), diving into a good book, and treating yourself to a cold coconut. For the more adventurous souls, you can rent a paddle board or even get a tattoo to commemorate your island memories here. In the afternoon, join us for a picturesque cycle around the island, uncovering its hidden treasures and ending with a short trek to Gili’s best lookout. As the sun sets, gather with your Still Fam to reminisce about the unforgettable experiences of the past six days in Lombok. Tonight, we’ll share our last dinner together on the island.

It’s time to bid farewell for now, but you are in the Still Fam forever! Our paths will undoubtedly cross again. While it’s sad to leave Indonesia, we’ve had an amazing experience together, so let’s plan our next reunion as friends and family in new locations. This incredible journey together has changed our lives, but the adventure isn’t over just yet. Your Travel Leader will assist you in your journey back to the airport or provide recommendations should you decide to extend your stay a little while longer. Until we meet again, Still Fam!
