Bali honeymoon after your wedding

Stay a little longer: a relaxed itinerary from the Uluwatu cliffs to Ubud’s rice terraces and the Nusa islands.

In short

A Bali honeymoon after your wedding works best in 7–10 days: stay on in Uluwatu for beaches and sunsets, move to Ubud for rice terraces, waterfalls and spa rituals, and add a boat trip to Nusa Penida or Lembongan for spectacular cliffs and snorkelling.
