FAQ's
What fitness level do I need?
You don't need to be an athlete but you do need to prepare. The mountain hike is 12+ hours starting at 3:30am, it's the hardest day. We send a physical prep guide after booking. Do the work and you'll be ready.
Will I get sick? What about Bali belly?
We're mindful of where we eat and avoid anything that unnecessarily increases the risk. There's a clear protocol in your Brotherhood Bali Welcome Document. Come prepared with anti-nausea and anti-diarrhoea meds, it's on the packing list.
Once I've paid, do I need to organise anything myself?
Mostly no. Everything inside the retreat is handled. Activities, accommodation, and transport between locations. You sort your flights, travel insurance, packing and personal spending money. We handle the rest.
I don't know anyone going. Will that be a problem?
Not in the slightest. By day two that won't matter. Connection is built through shared experience, in which you will have many.
What's a typical day like?
Mornings have the main activation - training, activities etc. Afternoons have breathing room for recovery or free time. Evenings are group dinners or reflection. Full itinerary is in your Welcome Document.
Can I drink alcohol?
Yes, we won't deprive you having a cold one with the boys on a hot day. Though we recommend you be intentional, we're not here to get f**d up and party. Most men choose to put alcohol aside for the trip, but its up to you.
Do I need a visa?
Yes. Australians get a visa on arrival at Denpasar airport, it's very straightforward. Join the visa queue, pay AUD $50 (IDR Cash, or Card), and you're through. Full instructions are in your Welcome Document.
What about cash/ currency exchange?
Indonesian Rupiah (IDR) for shopping, though most places take card. Easiest to withdraw from ATMs at the airport or in Ubud. A WISE CARD is strongly recommended for the best exchange rates and low fees. (Apply for a Wise card to be delivered before your trip).
What if I'm not into the spiritual stuff... Ceremonies, breathwork etc?
You don't need to be. Most men who come in sceptical leave saying those moments were the most unexpected highlights. Show up with an open mind and let the experience speak for itself.
How much free time is there?
More than you'd expect. The itinerary is structured but not suffocating There's breathing room built into every day to make the trip your own. Some of the best moments happen in the unplanned time between activities.
Will there be wifi and phone signal?
Yes at all accommodations. We recommend getting a sim card at the airport on arrival. That said, most men naturally disconnect more than they expect to, and come back better for it.
Is this suitable if I have an injury?
Depends on the injury. Contact us before applying and we'll be straight with you. The hike is physically demanding, so it's not something to attempt if you're not ready.
What if I have a dietary requirement?
Flag it on your application. We collect requirements from every guest and have you covered for group meals. Bali is easy to navigate with any diet for personal meals.
