START HERE

Tell us the shape
of your trip.

No packages to choose from. A few lines about who's coming, when, and what you're curious about is enough. Wayan and Sven build the rest around that — usually within a day.

Three questions, none of which require you to have decided anything.

WHAT ARE YOU AFTER?

Not sure yet? Leave it on the last one. Nothing here commits you to anything.

WHAT YOU WRITE HERE GOES TO SVEN'S INBOX AND IS USED TO ANSWER YOU. IT ISN'T SOLD, SHARED OR ADDED TO ANY LIST. HOW WE HANDLE IT

Sven answers personally, usually within a working day. Bali time, GMT+8.

WHAT HAPPENS NEXT

No packages. Just planning done properly.

01

Tell us the shape of the trip

Dates, who's travelling, and any hotels you're already circling. Three lines is enough to start.

02

Get a personal proposal

A short, specific recommendation written by Sven. Not a stack of brochure links. Usually within one working day.

03

We place the booking

Sven reserves your rooms through his Fora advisor account, which is what attaches the upgrade, the credit and the breakfast to your name before you arrive. You pay the hotel directly, at the hotel's own rate, on their terms. We don't hold your money — we handle the paperwork.

04

Travel with a direct line

If something needs to change while you're there, you message the two people who planned it. No call centre, no chatbot, no ticket number.

01

No fee to ask

Sending this costs nothing and commits you to nothing. It's the start of a conversation, not an order.

02

A person replies, not a system

Sven reads every message himself and writes the proposal himself. No auto-responder, no sales queue.

03

Honest, even when it means no

If your trip isn't the right fit for what we do, we'll tell you — and point you somewhere better if we can.

A FEW THINGS PEOPLE ASK BEFORE WRITING IN

Before you send it.

Does it cost anything to ask for a proposal?

No. There's no planning fee for hotel bookings. Private days with Wayan and full itinerary planning have their own pricing, which Sven will lay out clearly once he knows what you're after.

Do I need to already know which hotels I want?

No. Plenty of guests arrive with a name in mind; just as many arrive with nothing but dates. Both are a fine place to start.

How is this different from booking the hotel myself?

The rate is identical. What's different is what's already arranged before you arrive: the upgrade, the credit, the breakfast, and a direct line if anything needs adjusting.

How quickly will I hear back?

Usually within a working day, Bali time (GMT+8). We take on a small number of trips at a time, so replies are personal rather than automated.
