What a fun trip this was! From the ladies I met on the tour, the Balinese people, including our wonderful, funny drivers, the food, the beautiful interiors, the warmth, our gorgeous accomodation, and the many inspirational people we met who run their businesses in this beautiful part of the world.
We were in very capable hands with Sally, who is a wonderful, warm host who organises everything so effortlessly and with good humour. As a mum and a business owner, it was a welcome break for me from having to make decisions.
Highlights for me were visiting the Bali Street Mums Project, Giovanna’s studio and speaking to her about the charitable work that she does in Africa, the shopping, the food and the gorgeous sunsets, the list goes on.
I came back to New Zealand inspired and re-energised and I can’t wait to get back over there. I’d definitely be keen to do another of Sally’s tours and I highly recommend taking time out for yourself to do a tour with Sally, you won’t regret it.
Hi Sally
I wanted to send a follow up email expressing my gratitude for an amazing Bali tour. Oh how I’d love to be back there!
I had the best time and wouldn’t have wanted to change anything. The organisation, cost, accommodation and time spent at each place was perfect.
It was truly one of the best 10 days I’ve had and I loved every minute of it. I hope the tour following ours was just as great.
I would be very keen to do another one with you, so please let me know if there is anything in the pipeline.
Thank you once again and I hope all is well.
I recently had the pleasure of experiencing an interior tour in Bali with Sally and it was nothing short of amazing!
The combination of stunning sights, delectable food, unique shopping experiences, and the great company made this tour a highlight of my trip.
One of the standout features of this tour was the incredible food we enjoyed. The shopping experience was equally impressive with all sorts of unique shops and hidden gems, Sally was so generous with her knowledge of Bali, she took us to some of the best shops, suppliers and antique shops, I ended up shipping my own container back to Australia.
In summary, this interior tour in Bali exceeded all my expectations. With amazing food, fantastic shopping, and wonderful company, it was an experience I will cherish forever. Whether you're a foodie, a shopaholic, or just looking to explore the rich culture of Bali, I highly recommend going on tour with Sally.

In the taxi on the way to Sally’s Tour, a car in front had the bumper sticker
'Sleep doesn’t help when the Soul is tired’ It was a lightbulb moment and brought to my attention that I was in need of a big dose of soul food, away from the responsibilities of running my business and being there for my family.
I couldn’t have anticipated the smorgasbord of soul rejuvenating experiences that lay ahead. I am so grateful to Sally for providing such a wonderful tour, and holding space in an effortless graceful way for all our different personalities.
Sally has a way of attracting amazing people in to her world because of her positivity and warmth, and I felt safe in her calm organised presence, so I could truly enjoy every minute of this experience.
I highly recommend this tour to anyone who feels called to join Sally, the investment in yourself is so worth it!

Words can't capture how much I loved being a part of Sally’s September ’24 Bali sourcing adventure - a week of inspiration and joy shared with a small group of brilliant, generous people!
Though I don’t own a retail business, I adore homewares, art and design; treasure hunting off the beaten track.
The trip exceeded my every expectation with all of these. And add to that, superb accommodation, incredible dining venues, luxurious resort time, a blissful massage, and even a perfume-making session. Sally had crafted my dream itinerary.
Something that I hadn’t anticipated was how much I would be inspired; about Bali, business opportunities, and the fact that new possibilities can unfold at any stage of life.
Thank you Sally, for creating something so special :) I’ve come home with treasured memories, a fresh sense of excitement for future opportunities, beautiful bargain homewares, and a lovely posse of new friends.
I couldn’t be more grateful.

Sally was a wealth of knowledge and was so generous in sharing this with everyone and introducing us to her contacts.
The Bali tour was so fabulous. From the moment we arrived, it was calm and beauty. Sally was so warm and welcoming in every aspect of the tour. The small group meant that we could have great conversation and the tour could be customised to our needs. We ate at the most beautiful places and visited a gorgeous day spa, the whole Bali experience!! Sally was a wealth of knowledge and was so generous in sharing this with everyone and introducing us to her contacts. We were so well looked after. It was such a ‘head start’ into the Bali shopping and product sourcing experience. I highly recommend the tour experience if you are sourcing for your business.

I’m so glad I had someone with such a wealth of local knowledge to show me around.Sally took me on a tour while on my first ever trip to Bali, and I’m so glad I had someone with such a wealth of local knowledge to show me around.
Sally’s contacts with local suppliers and artisans meant we were able to experience a real side of Bali that not many tourists get to see. I was able to visit the best sourcing stores, meet the best suppliers and experience the best restaurants, bars and spectacular locations. Everything was organised and taken care of - I just sat back and enjoyed the ride. The most memorable parts of the trip was our visit to the Bali Street Mums project, which provides shelter and safety to street mums and their children. Meeting these beautiful women and their children was something I will never forget, and completed the trip perfectly. I would definitely recommend SallyO & Co, not only for a valuable sourcing trip but for a truly unforgettable holiday!

We went to some amazing places and stores that I have never been to before in Bali. It was a really inspiring trip.

As a Bali novice, I went on a tour with Sally and was absolutely blown away!
Sally curated a seamless experience from start to finish, from the wonderful (and cheeky) drivers, 5-star villa, AMAZING restaurants, sourcing and shopping to die for, divine massages and memories that will last a lifetime.
Highlights for me included visiting the Bali Street Mum safe house and seeing all the amazing work they do and how it all runs, the enchanting La Brisa Beach Club which is straight from a fairytale, The Hanging Gardens of Bali in Ubud and the magical Bodywork’s Bali for the most beautiful and relaxing building and set up I have ever seen.

The trip was an absolute delight!
I had the privilege to be among the first group of women to participate in Sally’s Bali trip for home decor sourcing and shopping. 🛍️. The trip was an absolute delight. From the vibrant markets to the hidden gems, every corner was a treasure trove of inspiration. Our group indulged in exquisite textiles, unique furniture, baskets and pottery. This journey wasn’t just about shopping, it was the start of friendships, creativity and the trill of the hunt for that very unique piece of Bali to bring back home.
Sally saw to every detail from accommodations, transportation, fantastic food and beverage to providing us with information on wholesale prices, shipping information, and personal contacts with shop owners.
I would take this trip again in a heartbeat 💗
