What to expect
Your guide will collect you from your hotel early morning and drive you through winding mountain roads toward Ubud's heartland. The day flows between craft workshops where artisans explain their techniques, modest temples where you'll remove your shoes and learn about local spiritual life, and natural landscapes punctuated by photography stops. Walking is moderate across uneven terrain and temple steps. The coffee tasting involves sampling different brews at a working plantation. Expect midday heat and afternoon rain. Bring a swimsuit if you plan to enter the waterfall pools.
Good to know

Women menstruating should avoid temple entry per local custom. Skip this tour if you have spinal issues, cardiovascular concerns, or are pregnant.
