Ultimate Travel

I would tell them that you do not always have to follow the group. As an example, the one night we were going for group dinner on the beach to watch the sunset, except for the place we ended up going to was very touristy and extremely expensive. We ended up leaving the group to find dinner, where we found the most incredible Thai restaurant that was 1/3 of the price too! That is only one example of many occasions where we had fun when a few of us found more local experiences.

The hotels provided a small breakfast, and on most days we would have time to eat before starting the activities for the day. It was very organized with good communication on where to be and at what time. Every day is very different though so you get to experience a lot. There is a decent amount of travel time during this program, just because locations are a little spread out, but once you're outside of Kuta the traffic gets better, and it takes less time to commute to the next destination.

It was the first time I was bringing my professional camera equipment with me, and I was nervous about theft or damage. I did have insurance on it, but the backpack I purchased for the trip provided the security I needed to feel safe with it. I have never been and never once was worried about my safety, weather concerns, or any other typical fears people have of being abroad.

During the program, the biggest highlight for me was on the party night. The guides organized it so we could go club hopping, but when they decided to go to fancier clubs that you had to pay to get into half of us decided we were done for the night. We ended up getting scooter rides back and they got lost, we were racing each other trying to get home first, cheering on the local who was driving us! It was even a highlight over when we rented scooters on a later day.

I've turned my passion for traveling as a backpacker into a living! Having worked for Ultimate for over three years, I've met people from across the globe, each with a different story. I like to think that Ultimate has played a grand part in their story.

A couple was having such a good time on their Ultimate Thailand tour that the boy decided to propose. He figured, why not do it in a magical place surrounded by new friends. She said yes!

Ultimate Bali! In my opinion, it's the best all-rounded tour: temples, nights out, volcano trekking, monkeys, cooking class, island hopping, bumming on a beach - it has it all!

We're all travelers at heart. We've each been in our customer's shoes at one time or another and can truly relate to their emotions, whether that be excitement, anxiety, never wanting to return home (ha!) - we've been there.
