Useful tips

If you have extra time, consider exploring Bali's rich culture further by visiting temples like Tanah Lot and Ulun Danu Beratan. Add water activities like snorkelling or river rafting if you're not with a baby. For a longer trip, head over to the Gili Islands for some stunning beaches and world-class diving. If you have only 4 days in Bali, you might consider skipping Ubud on day 3, and allocating more time to the beach or other sights if you have multiple highlights outside of the itinerary.
