DON’S 101 THINGS TO SEE & DO IN BALI (THIS VERSION UPDATED - JUNE 2011) So you’re off to Bali….. and without doubt I know you will have a great time in the “Isle Of Smiles”. There are many things to see and do in Bali for the active (and less active) traveler. Bali’s rugged and majestic landscape offers up an ideal setting for the active adventurer and there is an abundance of adventure tours such as rafting, hiking and cycling catering for all age groups. In contrast, Bali’s “cultural centre” of Ubud has many diverse art, craft and cultural activities that travelers can join in to cultivate more of an understanding about the history, culture and daily life of the friendly Balinese people. Here is my list of 101 Things to See and Do in Bali divided into categories: WILDLIFE - ZOOS & PARKS, WATERSPORTS, ACTION & ADVENTURE, GOLFING IN BALI, CYCLING - HIKING & TREKKING, BALI’S BEACHES, MUSEUMS – ART & CULTURE, COOKING CLASSES, TEMPLES & NATURAL ATTRACTIONS. But of course there’s heaps more too that I’m sure you will find by yourself that are as equally enjoyable…… why not drop me a line and let me know of your experiences so we can add it to our list. I’d also appreciate any news advising of price changes so we can keep this list updated for other intrepid Bali travelers. And for those “Bali Virgin’s” about to embark on their first trip to Bali we also have a handy shopping guide “Don’s Bali Virgin’s Shopping Guide” with prices of many items you might want to buy but aren’t quite sure of local prices. You will find a copy of Don’s Bali Virgin’s Shopping Guide - HERE. There are many video links included below to give you a better understanding about each attraction, see many more Bali related video’s on the web at www.mybali.tv Happy Travels Don Meredith Don Meredith – Publisher Why not start off by watching this great video MyBaliGuide.com which samples much of what Bali has to offer. admin@mybaliguide.com © Copyright: This guide printed or electronic is the copyright of MyBaliGuide.com, duplication and/or copying without permission is prohibited. WILDLIFE - ZOOS - PARKS BALI’S DOLPHINS - Swimming with them……or Watch / Follow them by boat ? There are two main Dolphin attractions in Bali. One is at Lovina Beach in northern Bali where you pay a guide who takes you out in a boat and you watch the dolphins in their natural environment (the ocean). The other is a new attraction just off the coast near Sanur in the south in a floating sea pen where you can interact (swim) with the dolphins. Bali Dolphin Lodge - Sanur There is now a special facility in Bali that allows you to interact and come into close contact with dolphins. In a huge floating sea pen just off the coast of Serangan near Sanur, (accessed by a short 5 min boat ride) you can touch, hug, feed and play with dolphins. Dolphins Bali provides a shallow area platform (approx 1.5 mtrs deep) for visitors to swim, pat and interact with the dolphins. There are as many as 8 dolphins to interact with and with a maximum of 5 persons in one session. As well as interacting with these beautiful creatures there is also the opportunity to only watch and is only half the price. Witness the spectacular and acrobatic dolphins with their stunning leaps, somersaults, jumps, side slaps and back flips. Watching the dolphins can be as equally rewarding as interacting with them and makes for a memorable experience and a great opportunities to take pictures or video of these beautiful sea creatures up close and personal.

After deforestation in Sumatra, the elephants were left homeless and with a depleted food supply. Fortunately they were rescued and now live happily at the Elephant Safari Park. What's more, it's the only park in the world where you can sleep in luxurious surrounds near these rare indigenous animals. The park was founded by Australian Nigel Mason, who took nine neglected elephants from the village and travelled to Sumatra and rescued another 18. His operation is part of the World Zoo Association, so animal welfare is the priority. You can touch them, handfeed and interact with them. You can even help bath them. There are safari rides through Taro's jungles with riders perched in a teak chair on an elephant's back. After the trek, lunch is served at the Park Restaurant beside the elephant bathing lake. Then everyone heads to the Elephant Arena for one of three daily talent shows.
