"Don’t talk about heaven if you’ve never been to Bali" –Toba Beta

Aptly called the "Island of the Gods," Bali is one of the smallest and most famous islands of the Indonesian archipelago. With such notable cities as Kuta, Nusa Dua, and the capital, Denpasar, Bali features sun-kissed beaches, volcanic landforms covered by forests, terraced rice fields, and vibrant arts and nightlife. The island also houses an inspiring range of world-class meeting venues and hotels, which attract numerous meeting and event planners from around the world. Ngurah Rai International Airport is the only airport in Bali, as well as Indonesia's third-busiest international airport. Located 13 kilometers south of Denpasar, it is served by a number of international airlines and tourist charters, connecting Bali with Australia, several Asian capitals and the rest of Indonesia.

"Mal Pais evokes a feeling of freedom and earthiness quite unlike one can imagine in the city". - Bahayan Costa Rica

In Southernmost Guanacaste along the Peninsula de Nicoya, Mal Pais and Santa Teresa are a dramatic plethora of natural variances; rocky coves, white sand beaches, waterfalls, rainforests, secret coves, embodying the true Pura Vida mantra near Cabo Blanco National Park. The historical draw was surfing at famous beaches like Playa Mar Azul, Playa Santa Teresa, Playa Manzanillo, and Playa Carmen but the fishing, boating, snorkeling, diving, hiking, horseback riding, biking, and 4-wheeling have become world class. 

For many years, the Southern Nicoya Peninsula was off the beaten tourist track so backpackers and surfers were the modern re-discoverers of the beautiful beaches and lush forests.  As the infrastructure improved to the region of the sister towns, Mal Pais, and Santa Teresa morphed into one of Costa Rica’s most appreciated off the beaten paths. 

Santa Teresa has become a bustling surf town with modern comforts while Malpais has retained its laid-back vibe and beckons travelers in search of nature and tranquility. Life is slow paced, while animals still find shelter in the thickets and monkeys’ traverse through the canopy.

"But there is a different Belize that we set out to find: its lush interior, thick with rain forests, Mayan ruins, tiny villages, intense wildlife..." -Dwight Garner

San Ignacio has become a cultural hub, combining the history of the surrounding local Maya ruins with modern cultural influences. This region has an authentic and contagious vibe, teeming with life and positivity. Residents are mestizos, Maya and Garifuna, as well as a bunch of free-spirited expats from Europe and North America. Most travelers come to San Ignacio as a base for the adventures of the jungle and rivers as well as the ancient history of the Maya. 

San Ignacio is the epicenter of Western Belize and the largest town in the Cayo district, located on the banks of the Mopan and Macal Rivers is an easy transfer from Belize City. 67 miles of modern roadway and the only suspension bridge in the country leads to a magically lush jungle full of truly special wildlife, breathtaking waterfalls, rushing rivers and ancient culture. Generational hospitality and unique resorts make this a truly special part of a trip to Belize.
