Indonesia
Indonesia is a contrast of vibrant cities and quaint villages making the perfect family holiday.
Nestling within the Indonesian archipelago are the neighbouring islands of Bali and Lombok, perhaps the most well known of the islands. Both idyllic holiday destinations where ancient volcanoes stand over thick and luscious tropical jungles. Dramatic rivers cut through steep gorges and the seemingly endless coastlines boast impressive beaches, coves and bays.
Why we love Indonesia Family Holidays
Snorkel on the beautiful beaches of Southern Bali
Spot the Orangutans in Bukit Lawang, Sumatra
See the dragons at Komodo National Park
Watch the dolphins and flying fish in Pulau Bunaken
Sacred Monkey Forest in Ubud
Bali is colourful, vibrant and glamorous. In central Bali, the tempo is much more laid back. The pace slows down and the villages are quaint and unspoiled. Ubud is remarkable, and very much the home of the islands art and cultural scene. We recommend several of the finest boutique hotels that sit above the Ayung River Gorge. This puts you in close touch to the white-water rafting where thrills are guaranteed. Whilst in central Bali the Taro Elephant Safari park is also not to be missed and a great day out.
Lombok is more adventurous in many ways, stunningly beautiful and uncommercialised. Rich in natural splendors, the islands also have a rich heritage, defined by ancient palaces and splendid temples. The people are so friendly and welcoming and love to put on show their cultural events, arts, music and dance.
The picture perfect beaches of Nusa Penida might be difficult to get to but are worth the hike. Only a short hop from Bali they are a nice day trip on a speedboat, or alternatively a short stay is a great addition to your Indonesia family holiday.
When to Visit
High season is December to February but the weather is arguably most pleasant between May and September.
