7.Blow Lagoon Bali Snorkeling and see Bali Bats Cave Temple

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 4 reviews · from $25

Start with a private hotel pickup, then take a traditional boat to Blue Lagoon for two hours of snorkeling among tropical fish. After lunch, visit Goa Lawah, Bali’s bat cave temple. Equipment, transport, admissions, bottled water, and an Indonesian meal are included. The tour is private, though the snorkeling guide may offer photos for purchase.

“On a fait le snorkeling c’était super rien à redire. Ce que je trouve dommage c’est que le temple au chauve souris était fermé donc on a été prévenu une fois arriver sur place et il nous a été proposer aucune solution de “secours” alors que nous avions payer pour les deux expédition. Un petit peu déçue”
