Exploring Bali by VW Convertible - East Bali

Climb in to a Volkswagen 181 convertible for a memorable guided day tour of Bali. These retro vehicles were built to handle rough terrain and today’s journey will venture off the island’s main roads to showcase a more authentic side of Bali. 

Start with a drive to Karangasem regency to visit Besakih temple. Drive into the hills. Enjoy the breeze and the views while traveling with the top down toward Mt Agung, Bali’s largest volcano. Stop at the ancient sanctuary of Besakih. For a stroll through this impressive temple complex. Witness local worshippers who have come to pay homage and learn about Bali’s rich spiritual traditions from the guide. 

After taking a break for lunch, continue driving through mile after mile of beautiful landscapes. Stop to take photos of stunning rice terraces and to visit the sacred Tirta Gangga water palace. Then it is back in the cars for a one-hour drive to Tenganan, a charming village of the Bali Aga people. Take a walk around the village to see the traditional ways of life of the people and witness weavers making complicated ikat cloths believed to have magical qualities.

Following this insightful glimpse in to village life, hop back in the VW for the journey back to the hotel. Soak up a few more of the island’s spectacular views before arriving at the hotel late this afternoon.  (L)
