There’s choosing a travel destination, and then there’s choosing how you get there. Time to take those travels off the beaten track with Star Clippers which will take you off the beaten track in each one of their itineraries. Here are five to whet your appetite in Asia and Europe.
Westbound Bali-Bali
A few years ago, Star Clippers embarked on its maiden voyage to Indonesia. Now, it’s time to explore the very best Indonesia has to offer with Star Clippers Westbound Bali-Bali journey.
Start the journey in Benoa, surrounded by coffee plantations, rice terraces, and even a bat cave exploration for those who like adventure. From Benoa, step aboard your Star Clipper tall ship for some R&R while sailing to the peaceful fishing villages of Giligenteng Island. Everyone has experienced ‘white sandy beaches’ but at Lovina Beach in the north of Bali you’ll experience the volcanic black sand that lines the shoreline. Dance the night away on Lombok’s Senggigi beach before heading toward the coral reefs and turquoise waters of Gili Sudak. Undoubtedly, one of the island’s most iconic landmarks is Mount Bromo – a 2,329-metre volcano which forms part of the Tengger Semeru National Park and offers unparalleled natural beauty. A hiking tour up the side of the mountain and around the 6-mile wide inner caldera will take your breath away.
