March 22 - 28, 2014 (7D6N): We landed in Bali after traveling for 24 hrs!! Ubud was our favorite, but if you are looking for a beach vacation, go to the Caribbean instead.  We were in Bali to scout our destination wedding location, so you can remove those from your visit unless you are planning a wedding there as well!
