About this tour
This 11–12 hour private tour sweeps you through Ubud's cultural heart and Uluwatu's clifftop temples, ending with dinner on the beach. You'll start at Tegenungan Waterfall, move through the Sacred Monkey Forest among Hindu shrines, visit Ubud's royal palace, then head south to catch the Kecak fire dance at sunset before tucking into fresh seafood at Jimbaran. An English-speaking driver guides the whole day; lunch and dinner are included.
Highlights
- Tegenungan Waterfall – Ubud's most photogenic cascade

What to expect
You'll be picked up from your hotel and driven through Ubud's rice-terraced surrounds to the waterfall, where you can wade in the pools. The monkey forest is crowded but rewarding—keep loose items secured. The palace is modest but atmospheric. After lunch, you'll head south, stopping at Padang Padang Beach for a swim if time allows. The Kecak performance at Uluwatu is a rhythmic, chanting spectacle set against the sunset. Afterwards, you'll drive to Jimbaran, where tables line the sand and grilled fish arrives still hot.
