What to expect
Your driver collects you early morning and navigates to Tegenungan, where you'll have time to wade into the waterfall's pool. The drive to Tegalalang involves gentle walking through the rice paddies—take photos from the viewing platforms and side paths. After lunch (if booked), the Sacred Monkey Forest involves temple exploration and close encounters with wildlife; keep bags zipped and don't make direct eye contact with the macaques. Ubud Palace is a short architectural stop with modest grounds open to visitors. Expect frequent short stops, steady driving between sites, and a flexible itinerary—tell your driver if you want to linger anywhere.
