Optional activities range from $10 USD for a yoga or meditation class to $30 USD for cooking classes. Please see our "Trip Details" page for a complete list of optional activities!
We've included many activities in the price of the trip giving you plenty to do. However, we pride ourselves in helping you make the trip perfect for you. Therefore we’ve sought out the best activities and vendors to help you have the experience you want.
And don’t worry, your trip leader can help set up any of the optional activities for you so you can sit back and enjoy your trip.
The average high temperature for Bali from June to August is 88 degrees Fahrenheit during the day and a low of 80 degrees Fahrenheit at night.
Bali's tropical monsoon climate has two distinct seasons: dry (between May to September) and wet (between October to April). The majority of our trips are during the dry season, but the more prepared you are for your trip the better.
The weather is significantly colder at the top of Mount Bromo, Java, so definitely pack a jacket, gloves and a hat in your day pack for that!
Yes. Ice is produced in the same factories where the water is filtered. Ice is then shipped to restaurants, shops, and local vendors. A common rule is to only drink ice that has a hole in the center.
We stay in boutique accommodations throughout the duration of the trip.
Solo travelers are paired with someone of the same gender. You can request a friend to be your roommate upon checkout.
If you'd prefer not to have a roommate, private room options are available upon request, subject to hotel availability for an extra charge. Please contact bookings@under30experiences.com for more details.
The group travels on an air-conditioned train equipped with reclining seats. Travel time is approximately 7.5-hours. There is a catering car in the center of the train selling tea, coffee, bottled water, soft drinks, crisps and various types of microwaveable tray meals, typically with rice and chicken or fried rice and meatballs.
Yes, however, please be respectful and not overly aggressive. Bargaining for lower prices with the shop vendors can be exhilarating and lots of fun, plus a whole new style of shopping for many of us.
The majority of our trips operate during the dry season (May - September) and also outside of the high peak season. We consider this to be the best time to visit Indonesia.
Yes. Credit Cards are accepted in Indonesia. However, there is usually a minimum of $10-15 USD along with a transaction fee applied. Small markets and street food vendors typically only accept cash in local currency.
Yes, there will be options for travelers to select cuisine other than Indonesian food. Yogyakarta, Java and Ubud, Bali, will provide the best options for multiple cuisines.
Tourism is one of Indonesia’s biggest economies, so tipping is highly appreciated by service industry professionals. Most restaurants will build in a service fee into the bill, so please check your receipt before deciding to leave an additional tip.
If you participate in an optional activity that involves a local guide's assistance, it is recommended that you tip your guide at the end of the activity.
The lighter the better! If you only have a rolling suitcase that will work, but if you can get your hands on a more mobile bag, like a large backpack, that would be best. We take multiple forms of transportation and the pavement on the roads can be covered with potholes.
You'll also want a daypack for your personal gear, food, and drinks for the day.
Yes. Expect the 2 pin socket and plug as is found in Europe. The pins are round, not flat or rectangular. Make sure your devices can handle 220 volts or bring a power converter.
Yes! Last-minute slots sometimes open up on sold-out trips. Visit our Trips On Sale page for the latest last-minute deals.

U30X is such an amazing travel community. Once your trip is over, the experience is not. They keep in touch with their alumni & provide platforms for travel questions, personal development, & community connections in your own backyard! If you're a young person looking to travel I highly recommend U30X!
There are not enough ways for me to describe how amazing this company is. After my first trip I always told people, it wasn't about the location, but the experience that u30x gave me. I have some of the best experiences of my life with u30x, and now a passion for travel. Also, their alumni community and groups are awesome too!
Traveling with U30X has been life changing for me. I've made lifelong friends with both travelers and staff. I can't come up with enough good things to say about the company, the people, and the experiences I've had!
Just returned from my second trip with Under30Experiences. My first trip was to the Costa Rica rainforest. My most recent trip was to Iceland. Both trips were such an amazing experience. I loved learning about Iceland and its origins. I enjoy the small groups and I made some great new friends! Recommend them for anyone wanting to travel alone or with a couple of friends.
I was so scared to travel abroad alone and then I came across their website and they made international travel so easy! And the people I’ve met on the trips are some amazing individuals! I’ve done 6 of their trips and plan on continuing to do even more!!
My Hike the Inca Trail trip was beyond amazing, and I couldn't have asked for anything more from a trip. Our leaders made us all feel instantly comfortable, and the group was fantastic. The trip was well planned and the hike was unforgettable. Memories to last a lifetime.
