Detailed Itinerary
Fremantle (Perth), Western Australia, Australia
Coming in at number seven on Lonely Planet's list of best places to live, Fremantle has finally begun to shake off the shadow of neighboring big brother Perth. With just 20 kilometers separating the two cities, Perth, with its happy hippie vibe has long been the big pull for visitors to the region. But Fremantle's colorful past and bright future gives Perth as good as it gets. The coastal city has undergone a complete revamp since the America's Cup thrust Fremantle into the spotlight in 1987. Over AUS$ 1,3 billion has been poured into revamping the city, and the fruits of the city's labor are ripe for picking. Investment in the arts has brought Fremantle to the fore of thriving urban culture, while generous grants for small businesses have led to groovy live-music rooms, hipster bars, boutique hotels, left-field bookshops, craft-beer breweries, Indian Ocean seafood shacks amid the buskers and beaches. If that doesn't sound like your glass of beer, we guarantee a stroll along the wooden riverside walkway will change your mind. The city also enjoys another, rather different status. Fremantle was one of Australia's penal cities, vestiges of which can still be found in Fremantle Prison. Almost 10,000 convicts were condemned to life imprisonment here between 1850 and 1868, but the prison remained in use until 1991. Today, the memorable sandstone building is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and at just 15 minutes from port is well worth a visit. Just don't forget your get-out-of-jail-free card.

Benoa, Bali, Indonesia
Bali. A.k.a. Island of the Gods, Land of a thousand temples, or the World's last paradise. As superlative as these monikers may sound, they do not do justice to the actual reality of the island. Bali is as good as everyone says - verdant mountains with terraced rice fields in one direction, black sand beaches in another, and captivating people that will leave even the most seasoned traveler humbled. If you're looking for a Garden of Eden that really does have everything, Bali ticks all the boxes. The rich and diverse culture of the island is what sets Bali apart from Indonesia's (many) other tropical paradises. The country's estimated 10,000 Buddhist-Hindu temples, with their daily offerings of lotus flowers and fruit, are a testament to the gentleness of the islander's belief. Then there is the vibrant arts and crafts scene, notably in Ubud in the center of the island, but prolific everywhere. Ideal souvenirs to bring back range from gorgeous silver jewelry to intricate wood carvings. Additionally, do try to see a traditional dance if possible, particularly if accompanied to local gamelan music. No one could mention Bali without mentioning the food. Dishes range from elaborate meals to street food bites, but all are without exception ambrosia. Do not miss out on tasting a succulent chicken satay, betutu (apparently the King's favorite meal), and sambal matah. But whatever you decide to discover, you can be assured of a taste sensation that will remain with you long after you have returned home.

Singapore, Singapore
Advanced, airy, and elevated, Singapore is a spectacular, futuristic vision of utopian city life. A healthy population of almost six million calls it home, but this is a city designed with space to breathe, gorgeous outdoor parks, massive indoor greenhouses, and beautiful recreational spaces spread between the City of Gardens' skyscrapers and soaring structures. Once a quiet fishing village, now a glistening island city-state and an international beacon of science, education, and technology. Singapore is almost intimidatingly clean - and the hyper-efficient public transport system whips residents and visitors across the city's neighborhoods in a heartbeat. Glorious fountains and audacious skyscrapers loom up - nodding to traditional feng shui beliefs - and putting on dazzling illuminated displays after dark. The lush green botanical gardens are a spectacular UNESCO World Heritage Site, covering 52 hectares and decorated with impressive colorful orchids. Or breathe in more of the freshest air by heading up to wander the canopy-strung bridges of MacRitchie Reservoir Park. Head for the iconic Marina Bay - a landmark of the city crowned by three interconnected towers, which watch out over island-sprinkled waters. Jaunt between Little India and the atmospheric Chinatown in minutes, where beautiful temples - like the Chinese Thian Hock Keng Temple and Hindu Sri Mariamman Temple add rich cultural intrigue. Singapore's cuisine is a mouthwatering fusion of its Indian, Chinese, Indonesian, and Malay influences, taking and enhancing the best of each. Enjoy dishes in towering restaurants, or toast the glowing skyline with the city's eponymous gin-soaked cocktail - a Singapore Sling.

Shore Excursions
Benoa, Bali, Indonesia
1 Day Silver Shore Private Package - 2 Guests
DPS-005Experience the UNESCO World Heritage Sites and exquisite temple scenes of Bali during this bespoke, full-day sightseeing excursion with lunch. Benoa, Scenic Drive, Lush Vegetation, Denpasar, Mengwi Village, Perean Hamlet, Local Fruits Depart the pier with your guide for the incredibly scenic, approximately 1.5-hour drive by van to the Taman Ayun Temple. En route, traverse the middle of Bali Island along bumpy, countryside roads lined with lush vegetation. Pass through Denpasar, the capital city of Bali, main gateway to the island and a hub for other cities in the Lesser Sunda Islands, then continue through Mengwi Village and Perean Hamlet. This countryside is a major producer of tropical fruits and agricultural products found throughout Bali, but the seasonal fruits grown here, including Perean durian, mangosteen, and rambutan, maintain their own unique characteristics and flavours. During the fruit season here, many traders sell fruit on the side of the road. Taman Ayun Temple, Uma Luwang, Coffee & Cacao Plant-Viewing, Vegetable Farms, Plantations Upon arrival at the Taman Ayun Temple, take a guided walking tour. Built in the 16th century, this beautiful and enchanting royal family temple holds a very sophisticated architectural design compared to other Hindu temples in Bali. Explore the outer-and-middle courtyards and temple grounds. Along the way, see various pavilions and community buildings utilised for the temple’s operations, activities, meetings, worship, etc. Leaving the Taman Ayun Temple, a comfort and photo stop are made at the small village of Uma Luwang, where you can view coffee and cocoa plants growing first-hand. Afterward, pass by rice fields, vegetable farms, and plantations growing rice, cocoa, coffee, and cloves en route to the Jatiluwih Rice Terraces. Jatiluwih, Cascading Rice Terraces, Vibrant Green Hues, Undulating Slopes A hidden gem tucked way amidst the lush landscapes of Bali, Jatiluwih is home to Bali’s largest rice terraces, which span over 14 miles (about 23 kilometres) and are harvested three times per year. Take a guided walking tour amidst a beautiful panorama to the rice fields, and learn about how rice is produced and the local way of life here. Marvel at the cascading terraces of this awe-inspiring landscape.
