Trips to Bali reviews

Cathy made sure each of us had a wonderful experience. She has an excellent knowledge of Bali, the island, the people, and the cultural traditions. She knows the best restaurants, taught us how to negotiate with market vendors, and took the time to get to know everyone on the tour. Great choice!

Just go and do it now. There will not be another "now".  It gives you a new perspective on living.  The tour leader and the local guide are the very best.  Very knowledgeable and seemed right at home in Bali.  Also, very human, kind, and exceedingly helpful in difficult situations. I lost my phone in the airport on the way to Bali and everyone turned themselves inside out to help me.  Beautiful people.
