About this tour
Spend a full day exploring Bedugul's cooler highlands, starting with the lakeside Taman Ayun Temple before heading to a working coffee plantation to taste luwak and single-origin brews. Finish at the sprawling Bali Botanical Garden, where you'll wander amongst native and exotic plants across manicured grounds. The 10-hour tour covers roughly 60km north of the main tourist zones, with a private driver and air-conditioned transport included.
Highlights
- Taman Ayun Temple: lakeside setting and intricate stone architecture
- Coffee plantation: watch processing, taste luwak coffee freshly brewed
- Bali Botanical Garden: 60 hectares of plant collections and walking trails
- Highland climate: noticeably cooler than coastal Bali
- Private vehicle and driver for the full day
What to expect
You'll leave early morning for the drive north into Bedugul's higher altitude. The temple visit takes about an hour; expect modest crowds and stairs to navigate the grounds. The coffee plantation stop lasts roughly 90 minutes—you'll see drying beds, processing equipment, and a tasting setup, though the luwak coffee explanation can feel rehearsed. The botanical garden is genuinely vast; budget at least two hours to see the highlights without rushing. Bring comfortable walking shoes and sunscreen. Roads are sealed but winding; the journey can feel long if you're prone to motion sickness.
Good to know
Entrance fees to the temple and garden aren't included; budget around 150,000–200,000 IDR total. Lunch also falls on you—there are warungs near each stop. The drive is roughly two hours each way. Not suitable if you have serious back or heart conditions. Infant car seats available on request.
