About this tour
Spend 12 hours exploring Bali's coastal and cultural highlights on a private tour. Begin with swimming at Mengiat and Benoa beaches, where you can opt for banana boat or parasailing, then head inland to the quieter Nyang Nyang cove and the famous Padang Padang Beach. Fuel up with a proper Balinese meal at a local restaurant before finishing at clifftop Uluwatu Temple, where you'll catch the Kecak Fire Dance as the sun dips below the Indian Ocean.
Highlights
- Swim at four separate beaches across Bali's southern coast
- Banana boat or parasailing at Benoa Beach included
- Discover the secluded Nyang Nyang cove
- Padang Padang Beach with its sheltered lagoon
- Kecak Fire Dance performance at Uluwatu Temple
- Authentic lunch at a working local restaurant
- Private vehicle and driver for the full 12 hours
What to expect
You'll be picked up early and driven between beaches in an air-conditioned vehicle, spending roughly 45 minutes to an hour at each stop. The watersport at Benoa is optional but worth doing if you're confident in the water. Nyang Nyang requires a short descent down steps to reach the sand, so wear proper shoes. Padang Padang is shallow and sheltered, good for a relaxed swim. Lunch is served at a casual spot where locals eat, not a tourist restaurant. The final temple visit happens in late afternoon, giving you time to explore the grounds before the 6 pm dance performance. You'll be back at your accommodation by nightfall, likely quite tired.
Good to know
Bring reef-safe sunscreen, a rash guard if doing watersports, and a light sarong for temple entry. The temple grounds get crowded during the dance, so arrive early. Not suitable for pregnant women or those with heart conditions. Children in prams are welcome on most parts of the tour, though some beach access involves stairs.
