Overview

Wanna discover a whole new side of Indonesia? This trip will show you that and so much more. Over 13 days, you’ll hop from Bali to the Gili Islands to Komodo Island (and plenty more underexplored gems) - all with an included flight and a 2-night stay aboard a houseboat. You’ll learn traditional Balinese cooking in Ubud, go on snorkelling adventures, visit the Pink Beach, and see Komodo dragons in the wild. Plus, you’ll have the chance to dive into the ocean, take an early-morning trek for the best sunrise views and even the chance to swim with manta rays.

FAQs

Bangkok: What does a modular trip mean? A modular trip means fellow travellers will join and leave at various locations. There’ll be some goodbyes, sure, but there’ll also be plenty of hellos with new like-minded travellers.

Included Experience

  • Seminyak: Kick off your trip with welcome drinks at one of the most happening beach clubs in Bali (your first cocktail's on us!). Best part? The people at the resort work with the local community to recycle and reduce waste, and even reuse all their plastic.Heads up though, this experience is subject to availability.
  • Gili Trawangan: Best way to get around Gili T? A bike, ofc! No motorised vehicles are allowed on Gili (good for us tho, who doesn't love a lovely seaside bike ride anyway?). We'll hire a bike for the 3 wonderful days that we're gonna spend exploring this idyllic island.
  • Gili Trawangan: It's time to explore the world-famous Gili Islands! First, we'll zip through the turquoise water on an outrigger boat to Gili Mano (the most underexplored island of the three) for a full morning of snorkelling over vibrant corals, schools of fish, and even sea turtles - if you're lucky! Then we'll head to Gili Air for a beachside lunch at a local eatery. Afterwards, you've got some time to chill around and go swimming in the crystal clear sea before we make our way back to Gili Trawangan.
  • Sanur: Sit back, relax and get a good bird's eye view of the sea as we zip through the skies towards Labuan Bajo.
  • Kelor Island: We'll take a short hike up the hill on Kelor Island. Get ready to capture the incredible panoramic view of the stunning scenery of Flores Island, Rinca Island and many other small islands. Cameras at the ready!
  • Manjarite Island: Craving some R&R? This picturesque island is perfect for chilling, snorkelling, swimming and even those Insta photo dumps!
  • Kalong Island: Watch the sun set over the sprawling mangrove forest of Kalong Island. Keep an eye out for bats that have made this island their home.
  • Padar Island: Ready for some dark trekking? We'll head to Padar Island for a short trek up the island's tallest hill. Keep your cameras at the ready because these panoramic sunrise views will completely blow you away! Think: turquoise waters, green hills, blue bays and lots of tiny islands, all with a golden sunrise tint. Spectacular is an understatement.
  • Komodo Island: Get ready for a 90-min trek with a local park ranger as we check out all the views & wildlife here. Think: wild horses, buffaloes, pigs and the one and only - Komodo dragons! You'll also learn about their life on the islands and pass by waterholes to see some hunting action.
  • Pink Beach: A beach with pink sand and clear blue water? You gotta see it to believe it! Enjoy a swim or a snorkel in the clear blue water. And ofc - Get. Those. Photos. In.
  • Manta Point: This spot is famous for its high-rate of manta ray spottings. So, put on your snorkelling gear, get exploring and keep your eyes peeled!
  • Taka Makassar: Check out this incredibly tiny yet incredibly beautiful desert island in the middle of the ocean.
  • Kanawa Island: Another day, another blue bay. Check out the crystal clear waters of Kanawa and chill around with your crew at the beach.

They will work closely with you to arrange the ideal flights and insurance tailored to your specific adventure. Rest assured, our team is here to ensure you have a smooth and hassle-free travel experience from start to finish!

This the default question

it should be visible inside every trip page

Why should I book now?

After the last unexpected disruption to travel caused by the..c word..people are now more eager than ever to venture out and explore the world, determined not to miss out on any experiences. Global Work & Travel works on a first-in-best-dressed basis. Booking earlier ensures that you don’t miss out on the best intake, season, placements and more! We recommend our travellers take 6-12+ months to plan their trip for a reason - to make sure you’ve got everything organised perfectly, stress-free. As a Global Traveller you’ll get exclusive access to gWorld, our personalised app where you can keep all of your important documents and trip details in one spot and gain insider access to everything Global. This is where you will find exclusive Marketplace Deals, a unique social network to connect you with other like-minded Global Travellers, access to our Academy with an ever-growing range of skills & languages, and so much more. Think all of your favourite apps merged into one, but like, better? Why not give yourself something to look forward to by booking that trip!

Can I travel with a friend or partner?

Yes you can! Simply tell your Trip Coordinator after booking that your friend is also going and they can link your profiles. For most of our trips we should be able to have you and your friends placed together or nearby. Meaning that you can live, work, play & travel together! But wait there's more! Not only can you travel the world with your besties at your side, you can also earn some extra cash towards your own trip just by referring your friends to Global Work & Travel. You can learn more about the great referral rewards program inside your gWorld account once you join. And for those who decide to go-it-solo, we’ve made it easier to meet other Global Travellers in the same region as you. Just like any other social platform, you’ll be able to interact, share, chat and meet with some really cool people who are doing trips just like you!

Can I bring my pet along?

At Global Work & Travel, we share a deep love for animals and fully understand the special bond you have with your pet. We recognise the challenges of embarking on a trip without them. Due to travel restrictions, requirements, and limited pet-friendly accommodations among our host organisations, we regretfully cannot facilitate their inclusion in the journey. However, many of our customers choose to entrust their pets to a family member or friend, embark on their adventure, and return home to wagging tails and furry cuddles.

What happens if I need to cancel my trip?

We know that life can get in the way of travel, so all our trips come with a great deal of flexibility. In most cases, if you cannot travel on your selected date, you can place your trip on hold to deal with whatever is holding you back, and continue in the future without incurring any penalty. You may also have the option of transferring to an entirely different trip and destination as well, or even transferring your trip to a friend or family member. In the event that you need to outright cancel your trip, if you give us 84* days notice you can do so with only a 50% cancellation fee. Your refund of the balance will come in the form of a Store Credit which you can put toward any other trip that we offer, including tours through third-party providers, as well as holidays through DealsAway.com, and is valid for 2 years from date of issue. As international travel can be complex, your options are based on the progress of your trip organisation and our support team can assist you in finding the best solution for your needs.
