★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 7,160 reviews · from $31Our pick

Review of Ubud’s private Monkey Forest, jungle swing, rice terrace, waterfall, and Tirta Empul tour, with practical tips on cost and timing.

“We had a fantastic day with our driver and guide Adi! He went out of his way to make sure we had a great Ubud experience. He was very knowledgeable about all of the stops and the Balinese culture generally (no matter what random questions we may have asked). The car was very comfortable and we were provided bottles of water for the day. We highly recommend this experience (and Adi particularly) to anyone looking to explore Ubud.”

Review of Bali’s private temple and rice terrace tour, with Ulun Danu, Jatiluwih, Tanah Lot, local food, hot springs, costs, and tips.

“First let me say, that I had some lovely conversations with my guide/driver in between destinations. However, I intentionally booked and paid for the full day tour and not the car charter. What I received, was a car charter. My guide (which turned out really to be my driver) dropped me off at each sight and did not enter the places with me. I had expected that my guide would actually guide my trip and teach me about the various sights and temples and not just drive me from place to place. No water was provided despite the guide/driver purchasing himself cold waters and other beverages. He also kept falling…”

“If you like hiking then you are with this tour. The Selogriyo Temple is to the North fo Jogja , passing Borobudur. There are nice Rice terraces to be seen and, if you are lucky,you can ctach a foto from Merapi Vulcano without clouds on the way to Seogriyo. In the area where the Temple is located, you have a hard choice of food and drink. At Temple and close to it is a limited food package available. We did not take this , but took lunch on the way to the other destination waterfall Kedung Kayang. . There you can test your head for heights. Depends where your accomodation…”

“This was an incredibly good tour, all because of our amazing tour guide Wayan. He was fantastic. It was like spending the day with a good friend. The vehicle was comfortable and everything was on time. Wayan is an excellent photographer and was always happy to take some fabulous pictures for our memories. If you have Wayan as your guide, you will have a great day! One thing I would suggest to the tour operating company is do not try and cram in too much on a day tour. Focus on a particular geographical area of Bali rather then take guests to see sights far apart on the island which…”
