Ladies, is this you?

Do you want to travel but have no one to go with?

Do you want a break from daily life and routine?

Do you want to get out and see the world but are worried that you have to do it alone?

Do you want to build confidence and friendships through travel?

Do want to do it all in a safe environment?

Then don’t do it alone!

Instead, join me and 8 other older solo female travellers as we soak up all the beauty and the culture that Bali & the Gili Islands have to offer…

ARE YOU IN?

I am hosting a tour of Bali and the Gili Islands for just eight Travel Soul Sisters who love being near the sea. We will spend our time exploring Ubud, Canggu, Gili Trawangan and Sanur. No pressure, but you have the choice to be active (or not) and try out any of the many water activities available, enjoy a massage, take a yoga class, do some sightseeing, shop at local markets or just chill out on the beach with a deckchair and a cocktail.

We will spend the first four nights exploring the wonders of Ubud – Bali’s spiritual centre – with its temples, yoga studios, markets, nature, classes, and world-class restaurants. You can take a morning yoga class, visit the rice paddies and waterfalls in the lush greenery of the jungle surrounds, and watch the monkeys playing at Monkey Forest before pampering yourself at one of the many local spas.

From there we head to the resort village of Canggu for two relaxing nights. This coastal surf town is well known for its black sand surf beaches, funky Balinese-inspired street art and green-juice cafes. Watch the surfers in action (or take a class yourself) from one of the many beach clubs. Shop at the local craft market where you can barter with the locals to buy your trip souvenirs.

Next up, four nights on Gili Trawangan, an island paradise with postcard-perfect white sand beaches and palm trees, famous for world-class diving and snorkelling. Go snorkelling at the underwater statues off the island of Gili Meno and watch sea turtles swim at Turtle Bay. There are no cars or scooters on these islands, so you get about on foot, bicycle or by horse and carriage. Gili Trawangan boasts some of the best sunsets in the world so enjoying cocktails on the aptly named Sunset Beach is a must.

Our final adventure is in Sanur, an idyllic beach where you wake up to the sunrise and try an early morning SUP (stand-up paddleboarding) or Yoga SUP class in the still waters or cycle around the paved beachfront. Enjoy another massage, this time on the beach and relax with our Travel Soul Sisters over happy hour cocktails at the beach club. Head off to a workshop or take a day trip to the Instagram worthy Nusa Penida, before visiting the night market with its locally made souvenirs. Finish your day with dinner at one of the many beachfront restaurants.

Why not take a Discover Diving PADI Course (2 days and includes two dives with a dive-master to 12 meters).

Day 15

Transfer to Denpasar International Airport (DPS) Fly home feeling relaxed and empowered like the Goddess that you are!!

I am with you every step of our trip, this includes helping you book your flight, organise your travel insurance and meeting you at the airport upon arrival and I will send a suggested packing list etc upon booking. Prior to the tour and depending upon where people are coming from, we may have an informal meet-and-greet, and if you are on Facebook, there will be a Group to join where everyone can ask questions and get to know each other a little better.

During our tour, you are under no obligation to do any activities. If you want to lie by the pool all day and drink cocktails you are most welcome to.

My goal with this tour is to ensure that all ladies have an amazing time, meet new friends and experience the magic and culture of Bali & The Gili Islands in a safe and fun environment. There will be a maximum of 8 ladies on this trip as I believe a smaller group leads to stronger connections with each other. I will organise all the day to day planning for you (whether it’s on the itinerary or not).

All you have to do is turn up and enjoy!
