Traveling to Bali for 2 weeks

Hello all,

Traveling to Bali on our honeymoon for 2 weeks and looking for some advice on things to do/food to try. We're going to be staying in Seminyak, Gili Islands, and Ubud. I'll probably check out the local AD to see what they have (obviously not expecting much). I also travel through the Korean Airport and might check their AD out.

All advice would be appreciated.

Thanks!

Have you checked if there’s an AD on the islands?

I was there a few years ago and don’t recall seeing an AD.

On a side note, I enjoyed Ubud and the Gili islands more than Seminyak. Much less crowded.

Hope you have a blast!

The monkey forest in Ubud is a must. We also did a mtn bike tour there (not real trails, just through the country and forest) and saw some beautiful sites.

Just by looking at the sitre it looks like they have InTime as an AD. I doubt there will be anything worth seeing, but I'll check it out.

Appreciate the feedback!

Probably not a great way to kick things off, unless she’s also a WIS

Waterbomb is an awesome water park!

We were there on Christmas Day, highly recommended.

One of them ran up my leg and chest to grab a banana out of my hand when I wasn't looking. Scared the ba-jesus out of me.

On of them stole a friends sunglasses right off his face. Ran over to the cliff and tossed them off. They are little bastards!

There is an AD in the centre of Kuta however I've never personally visited. A few years back I had a flight via Seoul and there were at least 2 Rolex stores with SS stocks (although that was before the situation became dire).

Good luck and congrats.

If you going to do sight seeing and the walk about up the volcanic hills, do bring along a walking stick.
