The Grand Family Bali is the ultimate Bali holiday for families who want to experience everything the island has to offer — an extraordinary 8-night adventure covering Bali's absolute best across three stunning regions, with experiences that excite every age from 6 to 60.
Begin in Ubud's lush tropical highlands — cycling through UNESCO-listed rice terraces, white-water rafting down the dramatic Ayung River, and exploring the ancient Monkey Forest. Then board a private speedboat across the glittering Lombok Strait to the dramatic island of Nusa Penida — cliffs, sea cliffs and crystal-clear snorkelling. Finally, settle into a spectacular beachfront family villa in Nusa Dua for golden beach days, kids' surf lessons, Waterbom water park and a day at Bali Safari & Marine Park.

A private speedboat from Sanur to Nusa Penida — Bali's most dramatic neighbouring island, with towering cliff coastlines, hidden bays and the world-famous Kelingking Beach viewpoint. Snorkel the crystal-clear waters of Crystal Bay alongside manta rays — an experience that leaves families in stunned silence.
Two of Bali's most thrilling active experiences — a sunrise downhill cycling journey through Ubud's spectacular rice terraces and villages, and a white-water rafting adventure down the rushing Ayung River through dense jungle gorges and dramatic waterfalls. Suitable for children aged 8 and above.
Two of Bali's premier family attractions on back-to-back days — a full day of world-class slides and water rides at Waterbom Bali, followed by an incredible journey through Bali Safari & Marine Park, where over 60 species of animals from Asia and Africa can be seen on open safari drives, with a spectacular elephant encounter for the children.
Two of Bali's finest family villa settings — a luxury 4-bedroom highland villa in Ubud surrounded by rice fields and jungle with a private pool, and a stunning Nusa Dua beachfront family villa steps from the sand, with a private pool, garden and direct beach access. Spacious, private and perfectly suited to families.
Two beautiful water experiences to end the holiday — beginner surf lessons on Nusa Dua's gentle beach break, with expert instructors who specialise in first-time young surfers, and a guided family snorkelling session over a spectacular coral reef teeming with tropical sea life. The perfect finale for an adventure-filled week.
The ancient Sacred Monkey Forest Sanctuary in the heart of Ubud — 12 hectares of primeval jungle home to 700 long-tailed macaques living freely among centuries-old temples. Combined with a guided cultural walk through Ubud town's art galleries, traditional markets and royal palace, this is Bali's cultural heart at its most vivid and accessible.

Scenic 1-hour drive through Bali's tropical countryside to your Ubud highland family villa. Check in, pool time for the children while parents settle in. Welcome fruit platter, cold drinks and a briefing from your personal family guide on the days ahead. Dinner at a traditional Balinese restaurant in Ubud town with live gamelan music in the background.
An early sunrise start for the famous downhill cycling tour — journey by minivan to the highland village of Kintamani for a spectacular view of Mount Batur at dawn, then mount your bikes and glide downhill through 15 km of rice terraces, coffee plantations, traditional villages and bamboo forest paths. Lunch at a local warung. Afternoon: the Sacred Monkey Forest — 700 macaques roaming freely among ancient temple ruins in 12 hectares of sacred forest. Your guide helps the children interact safely and understand the spiritual significance. Evening free for a walk through Ubud's vibrant market.
An exhilarating morning white-water rafting adventure on the Ayung River — Bali's most popular rafting route, cutting through a spectacular jungle gorge with 10 km of rapids, waterfalls, rock formations and dense tropical forest. Suitable for ages 8 and above with full safety equipment, professional guides, and lifejackets. After the rafting, a hot shower and traditional Balinese lunch at the riverside base camp. Afternoon back at the villa for a well-earned rest and pool time. Optional evening: visit the Tegallalang rice terrace viewpoint at golden hour.
An early start for the 30-minute private speedboat crossing to Nusa Penida — the dramatic, rugged island off Bali's southeast coast with sheer cliff faces, hidden turquoise bays and the most jaw-dropping coastal scenery in the region. Morning: guided snorkelling at Crystal Bay — the chance to swim alongside the oceanic manta rays that patrol these waters. After lunch: drive to the famous Kelingking Beach viewpoint — a T-Rex shaped cliff with emerald green water 150 metres below. Return speedboat to Sanur by late afternoon. Check in to your Nusa Dua beachfront family villa — your home for the last four nights. Sunset dinner at the beach.
Today belongs entirely to Waterbom Bali — Asia's most acclaimed water park in Kuta. Multi-storey thrill rides including the Freefall, Smashdown and Superbowl for older kids and teenagers. A dedicated children's water zone with gentle slides, splash pads and spray structures for the youngest family members. Parents can drift down the lazy river or relax in the adults' lounge area. Food, snacks and lockers all available onsite. Your driver collects the family when you're ready in the evening. Dinner on the way back to the villa — no one will need to be asked twice to go to bed tonight.
A spectacular day at Bali Safari & Marine Park — one of the finest family wildlife parks in Asia.

Elephant encounter experience where children can feed and interact with the park's resident elephants under expert supervision. Afternoon: Bali Theatre show, animal presentations and Bali Agung traditional dance show. A full, extraordinary day that gives every family member memories to last a lifetime.
Morning: beginner surf lessons on Nusa Dua's gentle beach break — professional instructors who specialise in first-time young surfers get even the most nervous children standing up on the board within the first session. Safe, shallow water, friendly instructors and pure joy all round. Afternoon: guided family snorkelling tour over Nusa Dua's protected coral reef — a dazzling underwater garden of brain corals, staghorn corals, butterfly fish, parrotfish and clownfish. Full snorkelling equipment provided. Evening: sunset walk along the Nusa Dua beach promenade, followed by a relaxed seafood dinner at a beachside restaurant.
Morning at complete leisure at your Nusa Dua beachfront villa and beach — final swim in the private pool, last lazy morning on the white sand, and optional water sports such as kayaking and paddleboarding. Afternoon drive to the iconic Pura Luhur Uluwatu cliff temple for the legendary Kecak fire dance performance at sunset — 70 chanting priests, fire, and the Ramayana epic performed against the blazing Indian Ocean horizon. One of the most spectacular performances in all of Bali, and the perfect finale to an unforgettable family holiday. Return to villa for farewell dinner.
Final morning at your Nusa Dua villa. After a leisurely breakfast and last pool swim, your private driver collects the family at a time suited to your departure flight. Scenic 20-minute drive to Ngurah Rai Airport. Tour ends with warm farewells from your guide and driver — and eight extraordinary nights of memories: river rapids, ocean manta rays, safari elephants, water park laughter and golden beach sunsets that belong to your family forever.
