Not Your Typical Tours in Bali

Touring in Bali is not the typical big-city bus tour. There is a surprising amount to see on this small island but its very well hidden. Take a tour to help you find and experience all the lovely off the beaten path things to do in Bali. For the adventure lovers or the culture vultures, these two suggestions below are just a sample of the tours you can find in Bali.

Have you ever wanted to be a pirate? Do you say “shiver me timbers” or “thar she blows”? Well in Bali you can be your own Captain Jack Sparrow on the schooner tours of SongLine Cruises. You can sail the seven seas, OK just the Indian Ocean (but it’s still sounds very exotic), surf the waves, or dive for sunken treasure. You will pay a pretty dubloon (penny) if you want to take these 6 to 12 day excursions but everything from sleeping arrangements to food and gear rentals are included in the price. Become the swashbuckler you always wanted to be; the bounteous booty and rum await you!

Looting and plundering aren’t your thing? If your a landlubber and want to experience the art, culture and people of Bali what you can find at the beach take a tour with the husband and wife team of Dhyani Putri Adventures. Their highly customizable tours can take you on a 3 hour hike through a secluded village or you can immerse yourself for months at a time on one of their educational study groups. Learn traditional Balinese dance, ceremonial mask carving or temple music and singing. The English speaking couple don’t want to take you on a hop-on hop-off bus tour, they want to show you taste the cultural flavor in Bali. Your wish is their command!
