Famed for its epic surf spots, boho beach bars, and palm-fringed coast, there's always something exciting going on in Canggu. This lively destination can match any pace, whether you're craving a lazy beach day or a wild night out. When you're not hitting the waves, discover some of the island's dreamiest food spots on our Bali trips.
Emerald paddy fields, water temples, yoga retreats: Ubud embodies everything there is to love about Bali. This vibrant region is even more enchanting in person as you wander through the rice terraces, uncover its range of temples, or chill out in one of the famous infinity pools. Whatever you get up to here, Ubud's charm is magnetic.
If you picture paradise, Gili Trawangan will take you there. When heavenly stretches of white sand, colourful marine life, stunning underwater statues, and iconic nightlife are all on offer, it's hard to pick a favourite moment here. One thing's for sure - the memories made in Gili T on our Bali tours will stay with you for life.
Deep inside Ubud's lush jungle, you'll discover a temple sanctuary home to over 1,200 long-tailed macaque monkeys. Step into another world and spot these cheeky creatures crawling along the ancient temples, or swinging from the treetops. It's a once-in-a-lifetime experience you won't want to miss while on our Bali group tours.
Rugged and wild, Nusa Penida's natural beauty is sublime. After ticking the Kelingking and Diamond Beach viewpoints off your Bali bucket list (aka, some of the best vistas in your life), this island has adventure around every corner. It's not every day that you get to snorkel in the friendly company of manta rays, or kick back in paradise!
There's nothing like experiencing the magic of Mount Batur at sunrise. After hiking under the stars to the summit, the sky reveals its most beautiful colours over a blanket of clouds below. On a clear day, you can spot Bali's highest peak, Mount Agung, in the distance, as well as the neighbouring island of Lombok.
After exploring the "Island of the Gods", even more paradise landscapes beckon beyond its shores. From snorkelling in the Gili islands' famously crystal-clear waters to hiking along the stunning cliff edges in Nusa, and deer-spotting on the secluded sands of Menjangan... it's one life-changing adventure to the next on our Bali group tours.
If you’ve ever wanted to spot dolphins in the wild, Lovina is your chance to do so. Witnessing these majestic animals skipping through the ocean waves is something special. Just as memorable are all the quieter moments, like catching the sunset over a black sand beach, or dipping your toes into the sunkissed waves rolling gently at your feet.
Bali is bursting with temples that'll take your breath away... but there's just something about Tanah Lot. Translating to "Land in the Sea", this mesmerising islet can only be reached when the tide is low. So legend goes, Tanah Lot was first built by a priest who was awe-struck by its coastal beauty. And after visiting, you'll experience why.
Bali is a tropical island with warm temperatures and high humidity all year round. While Bali's dry season lasts from April to September, its lush wet season falls from October to March. As rain showers tend to be short and intense spells, visiting during this season can be an incredible option for budget travellers. May to August is generally the most popular time of year to visit Bali.
Average annual temperatures are generally consistent, ranging somewhere between 26℃ to 30℃. January is typically the coolest month, whereas May tends to experience the warmest and driest weather.
The best time to visit on one of our Bali tours comes down to preference. If you'd like to experience the best of Bali's beaches and island-hopping, May to August is the perfect time of year for this. For travellers looking to save on flights, the wet season (October to April) is a good option.
If you're looking to experience more of Balinese culture, attending the Bali Art festival (held from mid-June to mid-July) is a fantastic way to immerse yourself in the local side to island life.
Bali is unique to the rest of Indonesia in that the island's culture is deeply rooted in Hinduism. While Bali today is a melting pot of international and local influences, it is important to be mindful of traditions. Public displays of affection are not customary, and it is important to dress modestly while visiting any temples or places of worship. Personal space is valued.
As a popular destination, it is important to be respectful toward the local community by leaving each place how you found it. Reducing single-use plastic and bringing a reusable water bottle is encouraged.
Entry requirements and visa regulations are different for every destination and your purpose of travel. We recommend staying updated on the latest official information before you go travelling. Your passport should be undamaged and have enough blank pages for stamps and visas. Many countries require your passport to have at least 6 months of validity beyond the date of entry.
For more information and resources regarding entry requirements, check out our Visa Advice page.
At Gap 360, your safety and well-being are our top priorities. From the moment your trip is confirmed until you arrive back home, you'll have access to a 24/7 emergency contact number for any urgent issues. For anything non-urgent, our friendly team is also available during office hours to help.

Yes, Bali is an incredible destination to visit on a gap year. Between the breathtaking beaches, gorgeous temples, and tropical rainforests, our Bali trips are a feast for the senses. While Bali is amazing to explore in itself, it's also great for ticking your bucket list as part of a longer expedition in Asia, or on your way to Australia. Did you know that Bali is only a four-hour flight from Perth in Western Australia?
At Gap 360, our biggest priority is ensuring that travellers feel safe and supported on their adventures abroad. Before your departure on our Bali group tours, you will have access to our health and safety information with advice for your travels and country fact-files for Bali. You’ll also have access to a 24/7 emergency support number, operated by our UK-based team, to assist you while you're travelling. We always encourage travellers to do their own research before visiting a destination, or if you have any questions, we are just a message or phone call away.
Bali’s rainy season is from October to April, however, this can be an incredible time of year to visit. The rainfall typically comes in short and intense spells, resulting in even more lush scenery. Prices are generally cheaper at this time of year, and temperatures are still warm and humid.
Balinese cuisine is world-famous for its incredible variety of flavours. From fresh acai and smoothie bowls to juicy skewers and tasty plates of fried rice, Bali is a foodie paradise. And with so many different cultural influences, Bali has plenty of options available for vegetarian and plant-based travellers. If you ever want to know where the best restaurants or cafes are, we highly recommend asking your tour guide on your Bali trips.
Gap 360 has partnered with Masta and Nomad Clinics, one of the UK’s largest networks of private travel clinics. Through Masta, you can arrange a Travel Telephone Consultation, an in-person Consultation, and book your vaccinations at your nearest clinic.
Flights to Bali from the UK typically take around 18 hours and have one or two stops.
