About this tour
A 10-hour circuit through Ubud's landmarks and natural highlights, taking in the Sacred Monkey Forest, rice terraces, temples, and a working coffee plantation. You'll move through mist-wrapped waterfalls, swing above the valleys, and eat lunch overlooking the Tegallalang terraces. A guide walks you through the stories behind each stop—the temple rituals, the rice cultivation cycles, why the monkeys behave as they do—while you sample local coffee and pick up crafts from village sellers.

What to expect
You'll start early and spend the day moving between five or six sites. The pace is steady but not rushed—expect 20–45 minutes in a car between stops, and 45 minutes to two hours at each location. Mornings tend to be cooler and less crowded. The Monkey Forest is vibrant but chaotic; keep valuables tucked away. The temple and waterfall walks are short but uneven underfoot. By midday you'll eat with a view of the rice paddies. The swing is optional and requires a brief climb; it's thrilling but not technical. By late afternoon, when you're back in town, you'll have seen a good slice of Ubud's cultural and natural fabric.
Good to know
Bring sturdy walking shoes, sun cream, and a light rain jacket. The swing is not suitable for anyone with back problems, heart conditions, or pregnancy. Infants can sit on your lap in the car; baby seats are available on request. Public transport runs nearby if you prefer independent travel. Lunch is included but marked optional—book in advance if you want it.
