About this tour

A 10-hour circuit through Bali's eastern highlands and coast, starting from your hotel around 08:00. You'll climb to Lempuyang Temple's iconic gateway for views of Mount Agung, then descend to the water gardens of Tirta Gangga—a former royal compound of the Karangasem kingdom. The route sweeps through Taman Ujung's palace grounds and fish ponds before finishing at Virgin Beach for downtime before the return drive.

Highlights

  • Lempuyang Temple gateway with Mount Agung backdrop
  • Tirta Gangga royal palace water gardens and courtyards
  • Taman Ujung heritage park and ornamental pond
  • Virgin Beach for swimming and relaxation
  • Private driver and hotel transfers included
  • 2–3 hour scenic drive through eastern Bali

What to expect

Expect an early pickup and a long drive inland to Lempuyang. The temple gateway involves climbing steep steps—worth the effort if conditions are clear. From there you'll head to Tirta Gangga, a serene royal retreat with layered fountains and manicured gardens, followed by Taman Ujung's larger palace complex. You'll have time to swim at Virgin Beach before heading back. The pace is relaxed with stops built in, but the drive itself is substantial. Bring water, sun protection, and comfortable hiking shoes.

Good to know

Not suitable if you have spinal issues, are pregnant, or have cardiovascular concerns. Wear sturdy footwear for temple steps. Weather affects mountain photography. Meals not included—eat at local restaurants en route or bring snacks. Private tour means no group waits; departure times can be flexible with your hotel's schedule.
