Honeymoon in Bali: The Perfect Itinerary for a Romantic Getaway

Bali is a tropical island paradise, and it's no wonder it's a popular destination for honeymooners. With its stunning beaches, lush rice terraces, and ancient temples, Bali has something to offer couples of all interests.

If you're planning a honeymoon in Bali, here is a sample itinerary that you can follow:

Day 1: Arrive in Bali and check into your hotel in Ubud

• Morning: Arrive at Ngurah Rai International Airport in Denpasar, Bali.

• Afternoon: Transfer to your hotel in Ubud, a charming town in the hills of Bali

• Evening: Relax at your hotel and enjoy your first taste of Balinese cuisine.

Here are some additional details:

• Timing: This itinerary assumes you will arrive on an international flight in Bali in the morning. If you are arriving on a later flight, you may want to check into your hotel in the afternoon or evening.

• Transportation: You can get from the airport to Ubud by taxi, shuttle bus, or private car. The taxi is the most expensive option but also the most convenient. The shuttle bus is the cheapest option but can be crowded and slow. The private car is the most costly, comfortable, personal option.

• Dining: There are many great restaurants in Ubud, serving everything from traditional Balinese cuisine to international fare. If you want a romantic dinner, I recommend checking out one of the restaurants overlooking the rice terraces.
   

Day 2: Explore Ubud, visiting the Monkey Forest, the Tegalalang Rice Terraces, and the Tirta Empul Temple.

• Morning: Start your day with a visit to the Monkey Forest, a sacred monkey sanctuary where you can see hundreds of long-tailed macaques. Be sure to keep your belongings close, as the monkeys are known to be mischievous!

Here are some additional details:

• Timing: This itinerary assumes you will spend the entire day in Ubud. If you are short on time, you could visit just one or two attractions.

• Transportation: You can quickly get around Ubud by foot, bicycle, or scooter. If you plan on visiting the Monkey Forest, wear long pants and sleeves, as the monkeys can be aggressive.

• Dining: There are many great restaurants in Ubud, serving everything from traditional Balinese cuisine to international fare. If you want a romantic dinner, I recommend checking out one of the restaurants overlooking the rice terraces.
