About this tour

Explore eastern Bali's most striking temples and natural wonders on this private eight-to-ten-hour tour. Start at Lempuyang, a centuries-old Hindu sanctuary perched high above the landscape, famous for its iconic gateway framing Mount Agung. You'll visit the serene Tirta Gangga water palace with its ornamental gardens and koi ponds, then trek through jungle and riverbed to discover Tukad Cepung, a secluded waterfall where sunlight filters through the canopy. Private transport, entrance fees, and temple sarongs are included.

  • Tirta Gangga palace gardens and ornamental fish ponds
  • Tukad Cepung hidden waterfall jungle walk
  • Private air-conditioned vehicle throughout
  • Hotel pickup and drop-off service
  • All entrance tickets included

What to expect

Your driver collects you from your hotel and heads towards the foothills of Bali's highest volcano. The trek up Lempuyang involves a moderate climb to reach the famous gates—expect crowds here, especially mid-morning, and bring water. From there you'll move to Tirta Gangga's manicured grounds, where you can interact with the carp in shallow ponds among stone sculptures. The final stop at Tukad Cepung requires a short jungle hike and some rock-hopping along the river. The waterfall itself is modest but atmospheric, particularly when sunlight catches the mist. Bring sturdy shoes and a dry bag for this last section.

Good to know

Wear comfortable hiking shoes; the ground is uneven and sometimes slippery. Lunch is not provided, so eat before or pack snacks. The full itinerary suits reasonable fitness levels, but the Lempuyang climb can challenge those with heart conditions. Free pickups available across major resort areas including Kuta, Ubud, and Sanur.
