About this tour
Spend a full day exploring Ubud's cultural and natural landmarks in a private vehicle with your own driver-guide. Visit the artisan villages—silver, woodcarving, and painting workshops—then move through Batuan Temple's intricate stonework and the cascading Tegenungan Waterfall. See the stepped rice paddies at Tegalalang and encounter macaques at the Sacred Monkey Forest, before finishing with an hour of self-directed time in Ubud's centre to wander the palace grounds, market, and Saraswati Temple.

What to expect
Your guide collects you from your hotel and drives you through Ubud's quiet roads in an air-conditioned vehicle. The first stops let you handle handmade pieces—watch artisans at work or browse finished goods in their workshops. Batuan Temple involves a short walk and requires a sarong (provided). Tegenungan Waterfall is a brief photo stop; the path is manageable but can be muddy after rain. At Tegalalang, you'll stand among the rice paddies—popular with other visitors at midday. The monkey forest needs alertness (keep bags zipped, remove sunglasses) as macaques are curious. Your final hour in town is unguided, so you navigate the palace precinct, market stalls, and temple at your own pace.
Good to know
Wear comfortable walking shoes and sun protection. Bring a light layer for air-conditioned vehicle comfort. The pace is moderate; suitable for most fitness levels, though the monkey forest involves uneven terrain. Arrive at your lobby 5–10 minutes early. Entrance fees are included if selected when booking.
