Bali Shopping Village Tour
What you'll experience
Buy Balinese crafts where they are made: silver, wood and stone carving, painting, batik and the art markets, with a guide who knows the artisans.
Between Denpasar and Ubud, many villages specialise in their own craft: some carve stone, others work silver or wood, others paint. On this private tour you visit those villages, watch artisans at work in their workshops and buy directly where each piece is made.
Vision Bali knows Balinese crafts well: we have been arranging travel since 2000, and we also work with artisans across the island. Your guide helps you choose, understand quality and bargain respectfully at the markets.
