Get active in Bali with your teensUbud, Indonesia

View Map

There is more to Bali then the traditional flop and drop holiday, so why not take your teenagers and experience this beautiful destination. This jam-packed itinerary gets families out into nature with biking, hiking and rafting tours, plenty of pool time, a cooking class, and the opportunity to snorkel in Bali's clear blue waters.

Starting in the cultural centre of Ubud, families can enjoy the relaxed pace of this gorgeous artist town filled with local shops and restaurants before flying over trees at the Treetops Adventure Park. The area is also known for its white water rafting, and you'll get the chance to navigate a course along the Ayung River. Next you'll head to the coast of Candi Dasa and Amed, which are filled with palm tree-fringed beaches and lots of fun activities to enjoy. Then you'll finish up in the popular seaside town of Seminyak, where you can try your hand at a local cooking class which the entire family will enjoy.
