5 THINGS TO DO IN BALI ALONE.

There are tons of things you can do in Bali on your own, from enjoying a Bintang while sitting quietly at the beach to trying some water sports. Here are our recommendations:

1.      Take a few surf lessons. Bali is the perfect place to start your surf journey. If you are a beginner or have some skills, we’ll take you to the next level.

2.     Do some yoga and recharge your batteries. Surf and yoga are often liked together as disciplines that help reconnecting with your inner self. At Mondo you can join our relaxing yoga classes in the morning or afternoon, where you can train your flexibility.

3.      Go on a hiking route across the “jungle”. Mount Batur is the island’s volcano and has around 1,700 m high. The best way to explore the volcano is to hike to the top before sunrise, and once you reach the top you’ll have a stunning view.

4.      Go visit Bali’s most popular temples. There are plenty of ancient Balinese temples here in Bali (Ulu watu, Tanah Lot, Goa Gajah, etc.). Here at Mondo, we take you to some of the most popular spots (on request) on Sundays. You choose where to go!

5.      Try Indonesian food at a local Warung. At Mondo Village we offer a delicious selection of Indonesian food. However, we always recommend dining out in a local warung (traditional Balinese eatery).

4.   Don’t forget about your travel insurance! Because you never know what can happen next, having international travel insurance always helps.
