The Plus Size Travel Too x Bali trip is a group tour organised by Kirsty Leanne (@kirstyleannetravels).
With travel being so daunting for so many, we understand just how important it is to be with people who just *get it* when it comes to travelling in a larger body.
That's why we want to create trips that act as a safe space for those that want to travel.
With plus size friendly activities, fat-friendly chairs and lots of adventure, you'll never feel out of place on a PSTT trip. We promise!
The trip will run from 20th November 2022 until 30th November 2022. Depending on your flights, you may find it easier to arrive the day before. The trip ends at 11 am on the 30th, but you're welcome to leave earlier if you need to.
If you do need to arrive earlier, we are happy to help you find a hotel to stay in the first night, as access to the villa will not be available until the 20th. If that's you, pop us an email at plussizetraveltoo@gmail.com and we'll sort it for you!
We wanted to plan an INCREDIBLE trip for you, so we've included some amazing activities alongside accommodation and transport throughout the trip. This is what you'll get included in your ticket price:
Please note: flights are not included.
In total, you get 10 nights of accommodation, 5 breakfasts, 5 evening meals, two lunches and LOTS of awesome activities included. You also get drinks at the pool party, sunset bar and the VIP beach club.
All other food and drink will not be included, however, Bali is very affordable and we will be stopping at some great local places along the way!
We will send a full itinerary with accommodation details to those that sign up but for safety reasons, we will not release this to the public.
The VIP Packages include everything listed above as well as:
These cost more than the standard package and there are only two available.
All deposits are final and non-refundable.
If in the event of COVID-19 (or other extenuating circumstances) affecting the trip, the dates will be rearranged. If you can no longer make those dates, your deposit will be transferred to a future trip.
Please make sure you have travel insurance to ensure your flights and other travel arrangements you may need to make.
Day one starts at 2 pm, when you can start checking in to our AMAZING luxury villa in Ubud. As everyone will arriving at different times we'll have a quick welcome drink as people get comfortable and settle in.
After a quick refresh from a long flight, we'll all meet together for a Welcome BBQ.
After breakfast at the villa, we'll head to a local business to learn how to make jewellery.
From idea to wearable final piece: spend 3 hours with a skilled jewellery maker, and turn 5 grams of silver into a piece of jewellery that you will treasure forever as a memory of your time in Ubud.
Next, we'll head to our authentic cooking class. Here you will learn the secrets of Balinese cooking as well as heading to a rice plantation to see how they cultivate the staple crop.
Learn from expert cooks and discover handy techniques as you prepare 3 starters, 4 main courses and 1 authentic dessert. Then, sit down to a meal and savour the delicious flavours of your creations.
After cooking our own dinner, we'll head back to the villa for a chilled-out movie night (or an early night).
Our morning will start with a delicious breakfast cooked at the villa before heading to The Yoga Barn for a private sound healing class.
From there we'll head to a much-loved Ubud spa for the FAMOUS Balinese flower bath. We've chosen a spa with large baths, making it a comfortable experience for everyone!
Here, you will also have time to book any extra treatments if you'd like them as the afternoon is a chilled one. Of course, you can also head out into Ubud to grab some lunch (we love Folk Ubud, where you can also have a dip in the stunning pool).
Once everyone is done with their treatments and back at the villa, the pool party will begin. We'll have delicious food, pool floaties and lots of awesome music.
The day starts with a floating breakfast at the villa. The perfect Instagram photo that also ends with a delicious meal! What more could you want?
Today is a jam-packed one as, after breakfast, we'll be heading to an adventure park that has lots of incredible photo opportunities, as well as fat-friendly Bali swings.
We'll spend a couple of hours there (including lunch) before heading into Ubud to explore the area near our villa. Here we will visit Ubud Palace, an art museum and the famous Ubud Markets. Make sure you have lots of IDR at the ready, as this is going to be a great time to get lots of souvenirs to take home!
The rest of the evening is yours to spend as you please.
Today is another busy day as we'll spend the day with a female guide exploring temples, rice paddies and the famous Monkey Forest. Where we go is up to us, so if you have any temples you know you want to tick off, today is the day to do it!
We'll stop somewhere for lunch along the way, but this is not included.
When we get back to the villa we'll all sit down for a stunning meal cooked by our very own private chef, as in the morning we'll be leaving to our next accommodation.
After one last breakfast at the villa, today we will be heading to our beachfront hotel in Kuta. We can't check in until 2 pm so after dropping off our bags, we'll have plenty of time to head out for some lunch in the area.
The afternoon will be spent exploring the nearby area and Beachwalk Shopping Centre. After a busy few days, the rest of the evening will be spent relaxing at the beach and eating at the onsite hotel restaurant.
After grabbing breakfast at a nearby cafe, we'll be whisked off to our magical carriage (boat) for a few hours of snorkelling. We'll spend some time snorkelling in AMAZING locations and enjoy a traditional Indonesian lunch.
Please note: this activity will be weather dependent as it may not be able to go ahead if it's raining. We have a backup plan, just in case!
After a fun-filled day of snorkelling, we'll head back to the hotel to refresh before heading to a rooftop bar for the sunset. We'll have a couple of bottles of bubbly for the table, ready to toast to our last few days in Bali.
After the sun has set, those that want to go out can head into Kuta for even more drinks. We recommend Paddy's bar for a real good time.
The morning will be a bit of a slow one as we may have a few sore heads. We'll have some free time to grab a late breakfast and explore Kuta if you're up to it.
In the afternoon we'll head to the VIP Beach Bar where we'll have a private area with all of our food and drinks will be included for the evening. Whether you're a cocktail lover or can't pass up an ice-cold beer, you can't beat enjoying them from your own private bed in the sunshine.
We know everyone will have their own bucket list items for their time in Bali, so we're giving you a day to cross some things off of your own list! Of course, you'll have lots of new friends to make plans with during the first 8 days of the trip so if you don't want to do something alone, you can join someone else from the group.
Of course, if you'd like a day to rest, you can also do this too!
The evening is another free one, but we'll arrange a meet-up spot for those that want to grab dinner together.
Our last day in Bali will be a chilled one as we get ready to depart the next day. After grabbing breakfast in the trendy area of Canggu, we'll spend the rest of the day enjoying the beach and nearby area. With lots of photo opportunities and Instagramable cafes, it's a great way to grab any last snaps you haven't managed to get yet.
In the evening we'll get ready for a group beach photoshoot with a local photographer. We'll make the most of golden hour for some EPIC photos and then head for a Pizza Party in Kuta for our final night together. Pizza is included!
The trip ends at 11 am in the morning so depending on the time people are leaving, we'll have time to grab breakfast together one last time.
