Sample itinerary · Slow drift

Bali, ten slow days

This is what a Driftwise plan looks like. Every day has one thing worth getting up for, and nothing you have to rush.

  1. Day 1

    Arrive in Ubud

    Your driver meets you on arrival and takes you to a villa above the Ayung river. Dinner is booked a short walk away.

  2. Days 2–3

    Rice terraces at sunrise

    An early walk through Tegallalang before the crowds, then a slow afternoon by the pool. Optional yoga class on day 3.

  3. Day 4

    Temples with a private driver

    Tirta Empul and a coffee plantation, at your pace, with stops wherever you like.

  4. Days 5–9

    Beach time in the south

    Transfer to a quiet beach resort. One snorkel trip is included; the rest of the time is yours.

  5. Day 10

    Late check-out, then home

    We arrange a late check-out and time your transfer to your onward travel.

Questions

Before you ask

Does planning cost anything?

No. Your itinerary and quote are free. You only pay when you decide to book.

Can I cancel, and how do refunds work?

Yes. The charge depends on how close to your trip you cancel, and refunds go back to your original payment method within 14 days. Read the full cancellations and refunds policy.

I live in the US. Can you help?

Yes. We plan for travellers in the UK and the US and quote in dollars for US customers. WhatsApp is the easiest way to reach us from the US, at no cost to you.
