About this tour
Spend six hours exploring Ubud's quieter corners on a private tour that centres on the Monkey Forest, where you'll observe and hand-feed macaques in their natural habitat. You'll settle into a peaceful village setting with cold beer in hand whilst white herons glide overhead—the kind of experience that settles your mind after days of temple-hopping elsewhere. Includes transport, entrance fees, and refreshments throughout.

What to expect
Your driver collects you from your accommodation and takes you to the Monkey Forest, where a guide walks you through feeding protocols—the monkeys are accustomed to visitors but remain wild. You'll interact with them at close quarters in a managed environment. Afterwards, settle into a quiet village spot where the landscape opens up enough to spot herons. There's time to absorb the slower pace of rural Ubud, away from the crowded temple circuits. The tour moves at a leisurely clip; expect plenty of standing and walking on uneven ground, though wheelchair and pram access is available on main pathways.
Good to know
Bring sun protection and wear closed shoes for the Monkey Forest. Don't carry loose items—monkeys will grab them. The tour suits various fitness levels but those with heart conditions should check with organisers first. Minimum two people per booking; gratuities not included.
