Local Insider Take A Journey To Blissful Bali

Who isn’t dreaming of a trip to Bali at this time of year? The Indonesian province is one of the ultimate bucket list destinations for many travellers, and has garnered a reputation as the perfect place for a relaxing escape. Our Local Insider Tini talks to us about why you should book a trip to blow away the 2023 blues.

Find out what one of our recent Culture Trippers thought of her time in Bali to see if this is the right trip for you.

“I’m very proud that I get to work with Culture Trip and meet different people from different countries”, Tini explains enthusiastically when we catch up with her on video call. “I can introduce my culture but I can also learn more from the guests too. I feel like a friend and even like family when I’m with them.”

Tini is dialling in from Bali, and even though we had a few tech issues on the call, the excitement to meet new people and share experiences with them is evident.

The group travel environment is one that Tini feels works really well in terms of interacting and supporting the local community. People tend to be more open to trying things like street food.

“Bali is a beautiful island which is in harmony with the environment. People are friendly and warm, and that’s why you should visit Bali!”

Molly seems to have blagged herself a personal invite to Bali by the end of the call, and you can join her too. We have a number of departures throughout the year, so why not plan your next trip right now?

Since you are here, we would like to share our vision for the future of travel - and the direction Culture Trip is moving in.

Culture Trip launched in 2011 with a simple yet passionate mission: to inspire people to go beyond their boundaries and experience what makes a place, its people and its culture special and meaningful — and this is still in our DNA today. We are proud that, for more than a decade, millions like you have trusted our award-winning recommendations by people who deeply understand what makes certain places and communities so special.

Increasingly we believe the world needs more meaningful, real-life connections between curious travellers keen to explore the world in a more responsible way. That is why we have intensively curated a collection of premium small-group trips as an invitation to meet and connect with new, like-minded people for once-in-a-lifetime experiences in three categories: Culture Trips, Rail Trips and Private Trips. Our Trips are suitable for both solo travelers, couples and friends who want to explore the world together.

Culture Trips are deeply immersive 5 to 16 days itineraries, that combine authentic local experiences, exciting activities and 4-5* accommodation to look forward to at the end of each day. Our Rail Trips are our most planet-friendly itineraries that invite you to take the scenic route, relax whilst getting under the skin of a destination. Our Private Trips are fully tailored itineraries, curated by our Travel Experts specifically for you, your friends or your family.

We know that many of you worry about the environmental impact of travel and are looking for ways of expanding horizons in ways that do minimal harm - and may even bring benefits. We are committed to go as far as possible in curating our trips with care for the planet. That is why all of our trips are flightless in destination, fully carbon offset - and we have ambitious plans to be net zero in the very near future.
