Dubai, Middle East, United Arab Emirates

View From The Top: The Burj Khalifa

Offering the most breathtaking views over Dubai and claiming the title of tallest building in the world (amongst other records) at a staggering 828 meters tall is the Burj Khalifa. An architectural masterpiece, towering over the city and the desert, you can see the Burj Khalifa from miles away as it glistens in the desert heat. Visiting the Burj Khalifa was very high on our list of things we wanted to do in Dubai, with Thom especially interested in the construction aspect of the towering building. And it did not disappoint, with views from the city out to the desert and the World Islands in the Persian Golf, there's no better place to get a perspective of the United Arab Emirates.

Dune Bashing In The Arabian Desert

The number one, absolutely can't miss adventure experience in Dubai is the Sundowner Dune Dinner Safari through the Arabian Desert. An afternoon of 4x4 driving through the sand dunes as the sun sets, followed by an authentic Middle Eastern dinner experience in a traditional Bedouin style camp. This is an experience like no other and must do when visiting Dubai.

A Guide To The Great Ocean Road

One of the world's most scenic coastal drives is without a doubt the Great Ocean Road in Victoria, Australia. With towering cliffs, iconic surf breaks, misty waterfalls and native Australian wildlife, you can find everything around the Great Ocean Road. The drive is long and windy, and can take several hours, so if you have the time it is best to commit a few days to exploring, to make sure you cover everything! Here is a quick guide to what you can't miss along the Great Ocean Road!

Ombak Sunset Hotel Review

If we're all being honest, my number one reason for choosing to stay at the Hotel Ombak Sunset was their infamous Datu Swing. That swing in the crystal clear ocean that you have seen all over Instagram and just want a picture on to complete your Bali photo diary. The swing did not disappoint, but the hotel was outstanding for lots of other reasons as well.

Nalu Bowls

It might sound crazy, but one of the places I was most excited to visit in Bali was Nalu Bowls, a cute smoothie bowl shack offering the perfect treat for those balmy Bali days. I had been following them on Instagram for a while, and I just could not wait to try all their smoothie bowl creations!

A Guide To Gili Trawangan

Picture three tiny desert islands, fringed by white sand beaches and coconut palm trees, sitting in the middle of a turquoise sea - these are the Gilis. The Gili Islands have exploded in popularity in the last few years, with more and more people flocking to these stunning white sand beaches everyday. While we were in Indonesia, we spent two nights on Gili Trawangan, the largest of the three islands.

How To Survive Riding Scooters in Bali

Although it's not recommended, it is naive to tell people not to rent scooters in Bali. I mean we did it, so why wouldn't you?! Rather than take a negative approach, I would like to share some facts and tips to make this experience easier and more importantly safer for you! I will begin by mentioning that Thom has been riding motorbikes for his whole life, so I was confident that he knew how to ride safely and was comfortable riding a bike. I would never have gotten on one of those scooters by myself.

Finn's Beach Club, Uluwatu

For the most exclusively relaxing day in Bali you need to visit Finn's Beach Club in Uluwatu. The white sand beaches and clear blue water of the Indian Ocean are hidden away by tall cliff faces, giving you the feeling of swimming in the most private beach on Bali Island. It was absolutely beautiful and the best way to end our trip to Indonesia.

Sacred Monkey Forest, Ubud

If you do a Google search for the Sacred Ubud Monkey Forest there is no doubt that what will be returned to you is a long list of horror stories about naughty monkeys who prey on visitors and have no issue getting into your bags and pockets. In all honesty, that's not entirely incorrect! Hidden deep in the forest are a tribe of monkeys who rule over the sacred temples and run wild amongst the visitors.

Padma Resort Ubud Hotel Review

There's nothing that screams luxury accommodation like an infinity pool overlooking the luscious green rice fields in Ubud and in my opinion there is no one that has achieved this better than Padma Resort in Ubud. Boasting an incredible 89 meter infinity pool, with some of the most tranquil views over the rice terraces of Ubud, Padma Resort in Ubud offers the perfect place to relax and rejuvenate in the Balinese jungle.
