Bali reveals itself through the hands of those who live there. Hands that fold palm leaves for the morning offerings, hands that pound spices during the cooking class, hands of the woodcarvers of Mas and the silversmiths of Celuk. This tour takes the time to meet them, in a village where you are invited to walk among the rice fields.
Six nights in Nusa Dua serve as a home base. From there, Tanah Lot temple appears on its sea-battered rock at aperitif time, and Uluwatu temple towers above the cliffs while Kecak dancers chant. That same evening, lobster is served with your feet in the sand of Jimbaran. A crossing to Nusa Penida leads to the Kelingking headland, shaped like a dinosaur lying in the ocean.
In Ubud, the pace changes. A convertible Jeep climbs to Jatiluwih, where rice terraces hug the mountain, then a 4x4 reaches Mount Batur and its hot springs. The village of Tenganan, keeper of Bali Aga traditions, completes the portrait. The journey ends on Gili Trawangan, a car-free island where you get around by bike or horse cart and sea turtles swim close to shore.

Flights with Emirates
Travel insurance (trip cancellation and interruption, emergency medical care, baggage)Synergia network group departures
Advisors in the Voyages Synergia network build their own escorted group departures every year, with limited places. These are trips born of a passion rather than a catalogue: fishing in Guatemala, safari in East Africa, guided expeditions. The list above changes with the seasons.
What sets these departures apart
- A Quebec tour leader who knows the destination and travels with the group
- A restricted number of places, often a few dozen, sometimes fewer than ten
- A clear theme, built around one activity rather than a destination alone
- Fixed dates: you join the departure, you do not build it
