The essence of travel

You don't come to see Bali. You let her change you.

Some trips are forgotten as soon as you land. And some trips stay with you. This one is meant to be one of the latter.

It’s not about the monuments or the photos. It’s about what happens between one place and the next: the conversation as you make your way through the jungle, the silence in front of a stone temple, the moment when the sea forces you—at last—to breathe slowly.

Over the course of fourteen days, you don't just change your surroundings. You change your pace. To remember what it feels like to be exactly where you want to be.

How we do it

A Well-Planned Trip by hand.

You can't experience Bali through a package tour. This trip is crafted from the inside out—with choices you won't find in the brochure, but that change how you experience it.

Decision One

A one-of-a-kind base in Ubud. Eleven nights.

The difference between a trip and a whirlwind tour. While most tours change hotels every two days, we set up base in Ubud. You come back to the same place every night. The pool already recognizes you. Fourteen days, just one unpacked suitcase.

Decision Two

Our hotel in Ubud. Part of the trip.

This isn't just a place to stay overnight. It's part of the journey. Design, tranquility, the jungle all around, and the slow pace that Bali calls for. Where you sleep sets the tone for your day—here, you'll sleep well all fourteen nights.

Decision Three

Itinerary designed by a local guide in Bali.

No one knows their homeland better than those who live there. We’ve experienced it, tailored it, and signed off on it. What you see here isn’t a standard tour. It’s a Balinese perspective. told in Spanish.

Decision Four

And a conclusion that It's not something you promise. It's something you live.

There are some parts of the trip I'd rather not tell you too much about. The night of the 31st is one of them. We'll tell you about it when you're there.

This is not a tour of Bali. It's Bali told in a different way.

The north green.

What you're about to experience

Nine places that are not forgotten.

Some are famous. Others are hidden away. We’ve chosen them because each one tells a different story about Bali. Together, they tell the whole story of the trip.

From the stone gates framing Mount Agung to the cove hidden among the southern cliffs. From the sacred water ritual to sunrise over the smoking crater. Nine moments that, together, make up a journey to Bali that no organized tour can replicate.

1 LEMPUYANG 2 TEGALLALANG 3 TIRTA EMPUL 4 BATUR 5 B. MONKEYS 6 KANTO LAMPO 7 ULUN DANU 8 PENGLIPURAN 9 PADANG PADANG

9 places · Group trip to Bali

01
Between Heaven and Earth

Temple Lempuyang.

The imposing stone gates frame Mount Agung. A sacred place where silence invites one to gaze upon the invisible.

02
Balinese Landscape Architecture

Terraces of Tegallalang.

Curves sculpted by hand over centuries. To lose yourself among palm trees and emerald greenery is to understand why Bali is the Garden of the Gods.

03
The Purification of Holy Water

Spring Tirta Empul.

It's not just a visit—it's an immersion. You'll take part in the ancient ritual of purification under the jets of holy water.

04
Sunrise from the volcano

Volcano Batur.

We climbed to the summit under the stars to watch the sun awaken the island. Hot coffee, steam rising from the crater, and the world at your feet.

05
The Temple Guardians

Forest of monkeys in Ubud.

A canopy of centuries-old trees where nature and spirituality merge, among the macaques that guard the hidden temples.

06
The embrace of the wild

Waterfall Kanto Lampo.

We venture away from the beaten path to seek out the roar of the water among the undergrowth. A place where time stands still.

07
The Goddess of the Lake

Temple Ulun Danu Bratan.

A temple that seems to float on the waters of Lake Bratan. Absolute serenity framed by the mountains to the north.

08
The Town Frozen in Time

Village of Penglipuran.

One of the most authentic villages in the world. Step inside their homes, and you'll understand the true meaning of community.

09
The South's best-kept secret

Beach Padang Padang.

A cove hidden among limestone cliffs, white sand, and turquoise waters. The last glimpse of blue before heading back.

What You Carry Inside

Body above, lower body.

On this group trip to Bali, Bali has two sides. There are days for climbing, hiking, paddling, and getting up early. And there are days for doing absolutely nothing. That mix is what stays with you when you return.

The Days Above

Movement, adrenaline and early mornings that are worth it.

  • Mount Batur at sunrise. Wake up at 3:00, a two-hour hike under the stars, hot coffee with the crater steaming at your feet.
  • Rafting on the Ayung River. Whitewater, jungle on both banks, and guaranteed laughter.
  • Hiking at Lake Tamblingan in a traditional Balinese canoe.
  • The Gates of Heaven at Lempuyang, 1,700 steps to reach the rim of Mount Agung.
  • ATVs Through the Jungle from the heart of the island.
The Days Below

Silence, slow pace and the freedom to do nothing.

  • The hotel pool at eleven in the morning, no agenda.
  • Balinese Massage on one of the days off.
  • Leisurely strolls through Ubud, hidden cafés, laid-back markets.
  • Afternoon Reading Sessions in Gardens with the cicadas in the background.
  • Sunsets Over Rice Fields without having to repack.

Some trips change you because of the effort they require. Others, because of the silence. Bali, for both reasons.

Hotel in Ubud for a small-group trip to Bali · SunZen Travel
Accommodations

The joy of returning, eleven nights.

We chose our hotel in the heart of Ubud to be an extension of the journey itself: a place where jungle and design meet, where you return every night.

You unpack your suitcase just once. In fourteen days. That’s practically unheard of on a trip through Asia. You open your suitcase on day 1 and close it on day 14.

Tropical gardens, a pool where the water almost blends into the jungle, Balinese-style rooms, and a silence that’s rare in Asia—the kind that comes from knowing you’re in an oasis.

Some luxuries are evident the moment you open the door. Others, because they didn't open their suitcase.

You fill in the form.

Tell us how you travel and what you're looking for. There's no obligation.

02Connection · 10 min

We speak with you.

Before landing in Bali

The journey doesn't begin in Denpasar.

It starts weeks earlier, in Spain. That way, by your first day in Bali, you'll already be part of a group—not a stranger looking for other strangers in the immigration line.

Weeks earlier

We created the WhatsApp group.

You get to know your travel companions before you even arrive at the airport. The conversation begins before you even pack your suitcase.

In Madrid

Let's meet at the terminal.

Suitcases, check-in, boarding—we do it all together. The fear of getting lost in a new airport stays outside the departure gate.

On the plane

Rakel or Toni are traveling with the group.

From Madrid to Madrid. The journey has already begun before we even land.

Upon arrival

There's someone with your name on a poster.

Private car. Cold water. The green heart of Bali awaits. You don't have to organize a thing.

Leave your fear of traveling alone at the Madrid airport. You'll arrive in Bali as a group.

  • If the flight is delayed, we'll call you.
  • If you lose your suitcase in Denpasar, we'll track it down for you.
  • If you're feeling sick at 3 a.m. in Ubud, we'll find a doctor for you.
  • Days off — if you want plans, we'll make them for you; if not, you won't see us.
  • And we'll answer your call. Not an answering machine. A real person who knows you by name.

It's not about being available. It's being with you.

Frequently Asked Questions

What usually ask us.

Honest answers to the most common questions about group trips to Bali. If you have any other questions, let us know during our call.

Can you help me with international flights?

Of course. We'll help you choose the best combination at the best price, and, if possible, we'll coordinate the group so you can all fly together. There are no domestic flights in Bali: all travel is by road using private transfers.

What if I'm traveling alone?

This is the norm in our groups. That’s why we mention it up front: so you’re joining a group, not just a bunch of strangers. The standard arrangement is a shared room with someone of the same gender; if you’d prefer a private room, there’s a supplement that we’ll let you know about in advance.

What documents do I need for Bali?

A passport valid for at least 6 months from the date of entry into Indonesia. For tourism, the Visa on Arrival Upon arrival at the Denpasar airport—about 35 € and takes just a few minutes. You can also complete the process online before your flight at the Indonesia's official tourism website. We'll send you all the information ahead of time.

What level of fitness is required?

You don't have to be an athlete. You just need to be able to walk for 2–3 hours on moderately steep terrain. The most challenging parts are Mount Batur (an early morning start and a two-hour climb) and the Lempuyang Gates of Heaven. If you have any physical limitations, let us know during the call and we’ll figure something out.

Which city does it depart from?

You can depart from Madrid, Valencia, Barcelona, or any European airport. We'll help you coordinate your arrival in Denpasar so you can meet up with the group in Ubud without any hassle—no matter where you're coming from.

Do I need travel insurance?

It's required and not included. We'll help you find one that's right for what you'll be doing in Bali—tailored to your activities (hiking, rafting, water sports). You don't have to look for anything.

Is there a minimum number of travelers required for the trip to take place?

Yes, 6 people. If there are fewer than that, we'll cancel and refund your 100% deposit. You'll never be left hanging because of a decision we make.

Can I bring a companion?

Sure. Whether it's a couple, friends, or family. We just ask that everyone come because they want to, not because they're being dragged along: you can tell the difference within 14 days.

What if I have never traveled in a group?

Even better, without the problems we used to have. It’s often surprising how well it works when the group is put together right. If you have any specific concerns, let us know during the call.
