I decided that for my first full day in Bali this trip I would take an excursion and explore some different parts of the island. Here is the ship's description:
Barong Dance & Mt Batur
Duration
Approximately 8 1/2 hours
Description
This comprehensive tour will encompass a little of everything, including shopping. First, you will see the Barong Dance which is a traditional dance depicting the timeless theme of good versus evil. In the background, gongs and percussion instruments provide a musical accompaniment to create a meaningful experience. Continue to the village of Mas, where skilled carvers turn slabs of teak and ebony into many different forms and decorations. At the Ubud artists' colony, famous for its painters' and artists' studios, galleries and museums, you will visit one of the galleries to watch painters at work. Take time to browse in the large gift shop where you can purchase the finished products. You will then continue to Kintamani, a beautiful place for lunch overlooking the slopes of Mt. Batur. Enjoy stunning views of the volcano and the lake in the distance. Finally, you will head to Tirta Empul--the temple of holy springs. This 1,000-year-old temple complex is built around a sacred spring, and Balinese journey from around the island to bathe in its protective waters.
