Upon arrival, you’ll meet Ibu Sari, the founder of the Women’s Centre. She embarked on a mission to support vulnerable women and children in Bali, driven by her own difficult journey through divorce and a 16-year separation from her daughter. During her professional career as a teacher in local schools, she discovered that many other women had faced similar hardships, so she decided to establish a Women’s Centre. Here, valuable job skills are imparted through educational initiatives, empowering women with skills in cooking, catering, and making or selling clothes and accessories.
After taking a tour of the non-profit and learning Ibu Sari’s story, you can participate in some traditional activities. You can select two from the following list:

Ascent of Mount Agung
Mount Agung is Bali's highest and most sacred mountain. At 3,142 m its peak can be seen from right across the island and the Hindu population all line their beds toward it and sleep with their heads pointing in its direction as a sign of respect.
Cycling at Jatiluwih rice terraces
Cycle through colourful Balinese towns to the village of Jatiluwih (meaning 'really, really beautiful') which is famous for its magnificent panorama of the rice field terraces in this area.
You can enjoy this activity as part of the suggested tours below, or we can weave it into a trip shaped entirely around you.
