On arriving at Bali’s Denpasar Airport, begin your journey with a transfer by car to the artistic village of Ubud. Surrounded by rainforest and rice paddies in the island’s central foothills, Ubud is known as a centre of traditional Indonesian dance, craft, and sacred religious sites. More than three million travellers visit Ubud every year as its interior location offers an ideal base to explore all that Bali has to offer.

This picturesque town situated in a mountainous region is known for its panoramic views over verdant valleys, a lake, and an active volcano. Unlike the typical heat and humidity Bali is known for, Kintamani is often noted for its fresh, cool air.

After coming back down into central Bali, visit Tirta Empul, a Hindu water temple with natural mineral springs. The Balinese believe that the waters have purifying properties and regularly come to bathe and pray to Vishnu, the god to whom the temple is dedicated. On the drive back to the hotel in Ubud, make one final stop at the stunning, 15-metre tall Tegenungan Waterfall. Overnight stay in Ubud.

Overnight stay in Ubud.

Optional excursion to Besakih: Visit the oldest temple in Bali before heading to Penglipuran, a village located in the Bangli Regency.

Then, meet the wild monkeys of Alas Kedaton–known locally as the holy monkey forest. Surrounded by the fragrant nutmeg trees, explore this stunning habitat that is home to “Flying Fox” fruit bats and several varieties of large primate.

End the day with another breathtaking landscape as the sun sets over the Tanah Lot Temple, built on a cliff overlooking the sea.

This arid, rocky landscape offers something completely different from the wet, forested interior of the island. Discover the Uluwatu Temple, one of Bali’s most spiritually significant sites. Enjoy the sunset with sweeping views over the temple, as locals perform the traditional Kecak Dance. This daily ritual is performed at sunset every day at Uluwatu and other Balinese temples, and is believed to cause the dancers to enter a trance-like state. On the way back to the hotel after sunset, stop for an included fresh and delicious dinner in Jimbaran.

Please note that the Uluwatu Temple is known for its abundant population of wild Macaque monkeys. Please be careful with all belongings including hats, cameras, and phones as they are known to take items from visiting tourists.
