Bali & Komodo: Cruise and Stay

Head to the airport and enjoy included lounge access before boarding your overnight flight to Ngurah Rai International Airport in Bali.

On arrival in Bali, you will be transferred to your accommodation by private air-conditioned vehicle. Overlooking the Tjampuhan Valley and River Oos, your luxury hotel is hidden among the rice paddies and banyan trees of peaceful Ubud. Settle in to your room, complete with hand-carved bed, airy conservatory and oversized bath, before heading down to the pool terrace for a dip. Over the next few days, make the most of complimentary yoga, guided walks and the in-house spa – including a sauna and steam room – as well as the resort's contemporary dining options. You'll also want to explore Ubud’s historic Royal Palace, visit local villages and – for the adventurous – go volcano trekking. You can even sign up for cookery classes or go rafting on the Ayung River.

Dinner included on Day 2 only. Breakfast included on Days 3 & 4.

Stay: COMO Uma Ubud (Deluxe) 

After breakfast, farewell your hillside paradise and head for the airport for your short hop to Labuan Bajo. You'll be transferred to the harbour to board the eco-friendly Leyla Liveaboard, an intimate yacht housing just four cabins and ten staff, including crew and cruise director. Your first port of call is the nearby island of Sebayur, where you can dive, snorkel, or simply relax on the soft white sands. Over the next few days, among brightly-coloured tropical fish and friendly reef sharks, you’ll sail around coral-fringed Komodo and its surrounds, making use of snorkelling and diving equipment, fishing gear and sea kayaks on a host of included excursions. You might even see the islands' most famous residents – the Komodo dragons. Enjoy full-board dining throughout – there's everything from beach barbecues to elegant on-deck dinners.

Stay: Leyla Liveaboard

Disembark the Leyla Liveaboard this morning and return to the airport for your short flight back to Bali. Your local guide will collect you and bring you to your luxurious Belmond hotel, overlooking one of Bali's most beautiful beaches on Jimbaran Bay. Your Garden View Cottage Suite offers plenty of space, a sunken bath tub and a terrace overlooking the lush gardens of the resort. Over the next few days, enjoy everything from optional cooking classes and watersports to relaxing by the pool or wandering through bustling Kuta. There's even an on-site temple, where you can observe the serenity of Balinese prayer and leave offerings at the shrine. Come evening, dine at any of the resort's restaurants, topped off with cocktails in front of the moonlit ocean waves.

Alternatively, spoil yourself with an upgrade to Nihi on Sumba Island, an uber-luxe resort surrounded by golden beaches, gushing waterfalls and tropical forests. Speak to one of our specialists for more information.

After a final breakfast, you'll be transferred to the airport for your flight home to the UK.
