Bali: Ubud Rice terrace, water temple, and waterfall Tour

★ 5.0 · 17 reviews⏱ 8 hours📍 Indonesia

About this tour

An eight-hour private tour through Ubud's countryside, combining three natural attractions with cultural stops. You'll navigate the stepped emerald slopes of Tegalalang Rice Terraces, participate in water blessings at Tirta Empul Temple, and visit two lesser-known waterfalls—Tibumana and Kanto Lampo—each with distinct character. A local driver provides commentary throughout, and an air-conditioned vehicle handles transport between sites.

Highlights

  • Walk among Tegalalang's stacked rice paddies at eye level
  • Perform cleansing ritual in Tirta Empul's sacred spring pools
  • Explore Tibumana's layered cascade and jungle surroundings
  • Discover Kanto Lampo's stratified rock walls and natural slides
  • Private vehicle and English-speaking driver included
  • All entrance fees covered

What to expect

Start early to beat crowds at the rice terraces, where you'll descend into the working paddies and photograph the geometric landscape. Mid-morning, you'll remove your shoes at Tirta Empul Temple and wade into cool spring water alongside local devotees for the purification ceremony—authentic but crowded during peak hours. Lunch is self-catering; pack something or stop en route. Afternoon visits to both waterfalls involve short forest walks and slippery rocks. Kanto Lampo's stratified stone face allows scrambling and swimming; Tibumana feels quieter. Expect humidity, muddy patches, and limited shade.

Good to know

Wear sturdy, quick-dry shoes and bring a change of clothes for water temples and falls. The itinerary suits moderate fitness; steep steps and uneven terrain feature throughout. Not suitable for serious back issues, pregnancy, or cardiovascular conditions. Infants must stay on an adult's lap during transfers.
