Bali is a beautiful island with something to offer everyone. From stunning natural scenery to vibrant culture and delicious food, there's no shortage of things to see and do in Bali.
When I started planning my trip, I was overwhelmed with trying to figure out what I needed to see and do, what was even there to see and do, and what was possible to do within the time I had available to me. So I started off by making a giant list of everything I could find and where it was on the island. This made the planning process feel so much easier to handle. If you're planning a trip to Bali, be sure to add these bucket list locations to your itinerary.
Check back often because I will continue to add new locations as I find them!

I know this all sounds amazing and you want to see it all, but make sure to plan accordingly with the amount of time you have on the island of Bali. It takes more time than you think to get from place to place, and you want to also allow yourself time to just relax and take everything in. Keep this in mind and you will have a great time.
Happy travels!
