About this activity
Welcome to Bali, where culture, spirituality, and art come together. This private shore excursion from Benoa Port lets cruise guests experience authentic Bali, comfortably and without rush.
Begin with a visit to a real Balinese family home, then explore Batuan Temple's stunning architecture. The true highlight: through our close relationship with the temple priest, we offer guests a personal blessing at Tirta Empul's sacred holy spring, an experience most visitors never access.
Enjoy lunch surrounded by open rice terraces, watching farmers at work. If time allows, explore Bali's artistic soul: woodcarving in Mas, silversmithing in Celuk, and traditional batik-making.
This is a day built around genuine connection to Balinese culture and daily life. We guarantee your on-time return to Benoa Port, based on your cruise schedule.
