An amazing tour of Bali covering all the main areas you’d want to visit

An amazing tour of Bali covering all the main areas you’d want to visit. Great value for money with jam packed days. The besttt tour guide - we had Josh, who really took care of us all and became our friend. Thank you so much!

I loved the tour ❤️

01-Jul-2024

I loved the tour ❤️ For the short time in Indonesia it gives a great viariety of locations, activities, different restaurants, etc. Josh is a great guide, always giving good recommendations and ready to help with everything. I felt in love with Klapatart since I tried it in Ubud (its a desert) and could eat a lot of fish & seafood. ...more ...less

The most amazing experience

01-Jun-2024

The most amazing experience. A fantastic way to see the best parts of Bali efficiently and stress free. The guide makes you feel at ease and able to make the most of every activity, whilst still having plenty of opportunities for free time. Highlights were the snorkelling with Manta rays and seeing the deer at Menjangan island. Travelling from place to place was very comfortable and overall I would recommend to anyone travelling solo or with friends. ...more ...less

Mount Bromo in Java was the highlight of my trip

30-Jan-2020

What an absolutely amazing tour! You do and see so much - it was beyond what I expected. Mount Bromo in Java was the highlight of my trip but everything else was also fantastic. Everything is so well organised from the activities and local guides to the the places you stay throughout Indonesia (Shout out to the Eco Lodge is Kubuku for amazing staff, an awesome welcome, lush breakfast and the best massage!). Brooke is a credit to One Life! She went above and beyond the “tour guide” role and made sure we were all ok and happy throughout the trip! Coming from someone who is a first time solo traveller and had a lot of anxiety about coming away - she made me feel calm the whole time, always happy to listen to my 100 questions and even helped plan my time after the tour with tips on what to do and see. I can’t thank her enough for an amazing 12 days! Amazing tour guide.. amazing tour! (I cannot stop saying amazing!) ...more ...less

Emma  

A truly unforgettable, life changing experience.

12-Mar-2020

If you're looking for a tour that involves historical stories of rich culture combined with fun, adventurous activities, in the tropical climates, then this is the tour for you! One Life Adventures have put together a perfect blend of everything a traveller needs to explore Bali and Java. No other tours take you through Java so this is a unique and special experience. You hike volcanoes, you snorkel coral reefs, meet giant sea turtles in crystal waters, surf crisp waves at a secluded location, visit ancient temples and monuments and make friends for life. A truly unforgettable, life changing experience. Brooke has taken us on a wonderful journey and is by far one of the best leaders I have ever had the pleasure of meeting and she goes the extra mile in so many ways for all her customers. She is a special person and I know will remain friends forever. Thank you Brooke. ...more ...less

This trip is truly amazing and a real eye opener to what really matters in life.

23-Jan-2020

What can I say? This has been an adventure of a lifetime. This trip is truly amazing and a real eye opener to what really matters in life. To experience such a vast variety of this beautiful country is absolutely astonishing. From white sands and clear seas in Permuteran to a breathtaking sunrise in our woolly hats in Java, it is impossible to chose a favorite activity. What I love about OneLife is how we get to visit and experience 'off the beaten track' of Bali and Java and get a real sense of the culture. The philosophy of 'responsible tourism' is a huge unique point to this company as everything we do is mindful of the environment and the people who live here. This trip is 110% worth the travel as the experience gained is invaluable and I will never forget my time here. I have had made once in a lifetime memories with my incredible boyfriend, but also met the most phenomenal people and I have made friends for life. Kate has been an incredible guide and we cannot wait to rebook onto the Philippines tour with her, she is my ozzie best chick! ...more ...less

I could not have gone on a better tour!

07-Feb-2020

I could not have gone on a better tour! There was a perfect balance of activities and relaxation and I felt like I got to truly experience the culture of Indonesia. A lot of the activities took us off the beaten path away from other tourists like hiking mount Bromo and surfing on Red Island where we had a private lesson and the whole break to ourselves! I thought most of the hotels we stayed at were fabulous! We moved around quite a bit but none of them disappointed (except maybe the one at Gili T that wasn’t the cleanest and didn’t have WiFi). From our names spelled out in flower petals on our beds to incredible rooftop views, I don’t know how the other accommodations could have been better. The travel portion of the trip was quite a bit, but I thought it was completely worth it considering how much of Indonesia we saw. I do think it would be worthwhile to say in the itinerary that there are a few long bus rides (7 hours) and trains so that people get motion sickness and car sickness can plan accordingly. I think the food on this trip was really yummy, and even if you aren’t into trying the local foods or had Bali Belly there were always plenty of options. I loved our group dinner at Clear in Ubud and the food at Gili T was awesome too! Last but not least, I want to talk about my tour guide. She was incredible!! By the second day she already felt like an old friend who I could tell anything to, and I saw each and every day the little things she went out of her way to do, to make us feel comfortable and to suite all of our individual needs. She was knowledgeable, kind and it was so evident how much she cares about this tour company and taking care of our beautiful planet. I already had a great appreciation for nature and trying my best to reduce my waste, but seeing the trash on some of the beaches and participating in beach clean ups with the locals strongly reinforced what I already knew and made me want to do even better. This trip truly was a once in a lifetime adventure and I am so grateful for the amazing people I met along the way. It was an all girls trip and I really feel like I gained 8 more sisters by the end of it. I will definitely be back for another tour with Onelife!! ...more ...less

Includes a great variety of cultural and physical activities.

17-Jan-2020

The Onelife Java and Bali tour is awesome. It is well organised and includes a great variety of cultural and physical activities. Snorkelling Menjangan island and climbing Mt Bromo were particular highlights and the optional midnight hike of Mt Ijen is absolutely a once in a lifetime opportunity. Brooke, who was our tour guide for the 12 day tour, was calm and attentive to all guests’ needs. She made the tour so much more enjoyable. ...more ...less
