What to expect
Your guide picks you up and drives to Sumampan Waterfall first. A straightforward walk down river-facing steps brings you to the falls; most people swim here, though viewing is fine too. You'll then motor to Ubud's cultural cluster: a quick temple visit, followed by the monkey forest where you'll spot macaques in their natural habitat. The rice terraces offer sweeping views and photo stops. The jungle swing is the tour's adrenaline peak—you'll soar out over the canopy on a rope. By mid-afternoon, you'll browse Ubud Market's stalls and stroll the palace grounds before heading back.
Good to know
Lunch isn't included; eat beforehand or budget for Ubud's restaurants. Wear shoes with grip for waterfall stairs and keep valuables secured around monkeys. Bring a change of clothes if swimming. Early starts help beat crowds at popular spots. Children under three go free; infant seats and prams available.
