2 Days in Bali 🇮🇩 Escaping the Crowds | Uluwatu to Amed
Think you’ve seen Bali? Most travelers hit the beaches in Uluwatu, check into a villa in Canggu, take a day trip to Ubud, and think they’ve experienced the island. But Bali is so much more than that! In this East Bali travel guide, we’re hopping on a motorbike and riding from Uluwatu to Amed to discover a side of Bali most people miss. 🇮🇩
Our 2-day Bali road trip takes us along the eastern coast—from shimmering black sand beaches to quiet white sand coves, sacred Hindu ceremonies, and underwater adventures. Between a 2-hour motorbike breakdown, help from friendly locals, and an unexpected Balinese procession, the unplanned moments become some of the best parts of the journey.
Whether you’re planning a Bali itinerary or wondering if Amed is worth visiting, come along for a personal travel documentary filled with beautiful places, practical travel tips, and the reality of exploring Bali by motorbike.
