NORTHERN VIETNAM & BALI EXPLORER

You touch down in Hanoi, where you start out with 4 days in one of our favorite hostels in the city. You get picked up in the airport, so you don't have to hassle with taxis right upon arrival. There's a half day walking tour included, but other than that, it's time on your own. Check out markets or if you're in the mood, spend an evening at either the Bird Cage or Sidewalk, both great options if you want to hang out in a cool bar.

It's time to set sails! You can look forward to a few incredible days on board a boat in the beautiful Ha Long Bay. It's a classic sight when in this region. The water is peaceful, and the only sounds you hear are from the wildlife who inhabits the small limestone cliffs that can be seen everywhere around you. It's a truly magical experience, trust us.

This 3 day adventure takes you to Ba Be Lake, a place in northern Vietnam for you who wants to avoid the crowds. This place is located in beautiful surroundings and includes a tranquil kayak experience on the lake as well as a visit to the Tham Phay Cave, a 5km deep river cave filled with archeological gems. You end this trip in Ba Be National Park where you get a chance to enjoy life by doing absolutely nothing in the lush Vietnamese surroundings.

You fly from Hanoi to Denpasar, where next on your trip is 3 days in an epic surf camp in Canggu. You'll meet plenty of other travellers here, as Bali is famous for some great surf breaks. We work with a really cool partner who happens to have some of the greatest surf instructors on the island. So there's no doubt you'll learn to surf in no time. When the sun is setting, you can look forward to the atmosphere in the camp at night. It's easygoing, cozy and will give you a great opportunity to drink a beer with your fellow surf mates.

Ready to go exploring? It's time for a 12 day group tour through Bali. You start out in Changgu where you'll experience temples, beaches and learn to surf before moving onwards to the northern part of the island and Lovina. You'll get a chance to spot dolphins and get a dip in a nearby waterfall. From Lovina you'll head on to the backpacker friendly bounty island Gili Trawangan. Enjoy the beaches and some great snorkeling opportunities. After Gili T. you move towards the heart of the Island, Ubud. Lush green jungles is all around you, and so are the curious monkeys. This 12 day trip ends here, and what you want to do next is up to you!
