A road trip around Bali gives you the freedom to discover the island on your own schedule. Before hitting the road, charge your batteries and choose your starting point from one of the island’s myriad south coast resorts. Unfurl yourself from sun loungers in Sanur or family-friendly pools in Jimbaran and settle into the driver's seat ready for the ride of your life. A Bali road trip is not for the faint hearted, but when done the right way, it can be a wonderous exploration of the country’s copious sights. Circumvent the frenzied roads of Denpasar (where you’ll have officially earned your driving
stripes) before leaving the chaos behind for the coastal roads of East Bali. Tick everything off your ultimate Bali wish list, from the spellbinding Taman Ujung water palace to Tanah Lot temple, suspended off the island’s south west coast between water and sky. Stop to visit talented artists in Ubud, hidden away in studios and embedded in green rice fields, and gaze at the Gates of Heaven at Lempuyan Temple, an icon of Balinese culture. Drive to what feels like the edge of the world in Padang, before trading your wheels for a boat to the small but mighty Gili Islands. Back on the main island, our Bali road trip holidays will have you cruising beside black sand beaches in northern Bali, watching the sun rise at the summit of Mount Batur and getting wonderfully lost on treks to hidden waterfalls and rice paddies. Your tastebuds won’t be forgotten either. Structure your itinerary to include food stops at local restaurants where you can try everything from sate chicken and fried noodles to spiced duck wrapped in banana leaves. All roads lead to something incredible on a Bali road trip holiday. The only way to find out is to get planning and go…
