The exciting and adventurous Safari Journey is one of our signature activities here at the park that takes the visitor through the habitats of Indonesia, India and Africa.
Coming face to face with many animals, the visitors has the opportunity to see our wildlife living naturally all together in these open range regions and you get to takes as many photos as you like, all from the comfort and safety of your air-conditioned safari tram, with your very own personal guide.
Start your Bali tour with a visit to a remote beach club on the dramatic Batubelig beach in northern Seminyak, where massive walls of waves roll in when the surf is high. Our destination has no sealed road access, so you’ll ride across the back of the beach to reach our first stop, where the menu is French-Balinese fusion and the drinks are pure tropical indulgence. We recommend the Delinger: think vodka, strawberries, and ginger sorbet. Oh yes.
Sufficiently hydrated, you’ll travel through some of the area’s nearby beach villages as you head toward the stunning 17th-century temple of Pura Batu Ngaus, a fertility temple perched on a rock in the ocean. The Balinese come here to seek medicine or fertility blessings from the mangku, or priest, and leave offerings in a most unusual way: in a blowhole in the rock that connects to the ocean via an underwater cave. This temple is far off the tourist track, feeling a world away from the crowds that swarm Bali’s more famous sites. Along the way to Pura Batu Ngaus, you’ll pass scenes of government-protected rice terraces and catch glimpses of the sea and the far-off cliffs of Uluwatu — keep your camera close by for those classic Bali shots!
Thirsty again? And hungry? Good! Because up next, your Bali tour will take you to a restaurant and bar set on 6,000 square metres of lawn, overlooking the ocean. You’ll enjoy tapas and sangria at this gorgeous setting that’s part of a boutique art hotel dedicated to maintaining Balinese traditions. Sip one of three amazing sangria varieties (or try all three — we won’t judge!) while lazing about in the late afternoon sun.
Next, we leave the northern beaches behind and head south, passing by rice fields and through small streets crammed with antiques and collectibles. We cross to what was once another island, now home to a fishing village and the largest seafood market in Bali, where fishermen hunt for squid in the deep waters of the Indian Ocean. You’ll stop to watch the sunset in Jimbaran Bay, at what is possibly Bali’s best beach club. The cocktail menu here is almost as spectacular as the Bali sunset — try a vanilla margarita, Foxtrot Gimlet, or frozen apple martini.
Finish your Bali tour with a nightcap at the iconic Ku De Ta bar at Seminyak Beach, a long-standing hot spot that’s considered to be one of the best beach clubs in Southeast Asia. We recommend the espresso martini — perfect for revving you up for a night out on the town after your tour ends!
Visit a part of Bali where you still can find old traditions alive. You will drive yourself with a specially designed off road 4-wheel motorcycle that copes with all kinds of terrain through an authentic part of Bali, passing rice fields, crossing jungle and driving through some Balinese kampongs (villages).
Tours start from Payangan area, which is a rural area in the central part of Bali. The ATV 4 wheelers are user friendly and easy to handle. The tours combine a great experience of driving your own off road vehicle (or enjoying the ride as a co-pilot) with the opportunity to learn about the way the local people live.
You will follow our experienced guides by driving between beautiful rice fields, pass the rainforest and drive up the mountain. It does not matter if you have ever driven a quad bike before furthermore no driving license is needed.
Ubud is the cultural heart of Bali. Some say that the metaphysical lines around the earth cross in 2 places. 1 is in the middle of the ocean, the other is in Ubud. That’s why people believe that creativity comes to those who live in Ubud.
In Ubud you will visit the galleries of prominent Balinese and foreign artists, who create the most amazing things. There will be ample time to browse around the local art market and shops. From here you will continue along the back roads, passing rice terraces in Tegallalang and finally reach Tampaksiring with its holy spring waters.
On the return journey we shall stop at Batuan village to visit one of traditional houses. A last stop will be made at Tohpati village to see the arts of the hand painted batiks. A half day tour to introduce you to the beautiful and inspiring village Ubud.
Meet our representatives that will take you through the scenic back roads of Carangsari Village. Upon arrival at the cycling starting point, the cycling guides will conduct a safety briefing. They will describe the route to follow and they will take time to demonstrate how to use the bike’s gears and brakes. They will also give each of the participants a pair of gloves and a safety helmet. Then set off for a 2 hour cycling adventure (approximately 17 kilometers). There will be several stops along the way.
Cruise along untouched rice terraces sceneries and through villages dotted with traditional houses and temples. Stop to meet friendly locals, take photos of breathtakingly beautiful spots and learn about the local culture. Pass through Sangeh, the monkey forest where you’ll meet the cheeky inhabitants. Have a lunch break at a local eatery while your eyes are pampered by the sight of a lush tropical garden.
Next, continue to the chocolate factory where you will see, feel, smell and taste the transformation of organic Balinese cocoa pods. You will learn all about organic farming and you will follow the cocoa pod on its journey from flower to fruit and then to its harvest. You may want to taste fresh cocoa beans straight from the pod and witness the fermenting and drying process.
At the ends, you will have a chance to taste freshly roasted cocoa nibs and craft your own chocolate in the taste of your choice. We will supply a selection of different toppings so that you can create a unique and delicious chocolate. Later return to the hotel.
The park is divided into seven regions that recreate the natural habitats of birds, complete with indigenous plant life. Travel from the deep misty jungle of Sumatra to Far East Indonesia and Papua to discover the native birds from these remote regions. Venture to other tropical continents too including South America, the African Savannah and Australia.
