Review of Ubud’s private day tour with Monkey Forest, jungle swing, rice terraces, Tegenungan Waterfall, and Tirta Empul Temple.

“I had an amazing experience exploring Ubud with our tour guide, Wayan. He took me and my friend to the Monkey Forest, the jungle swing, the rice terraces, and the beautiful water temple—and made every moment unforgettable. Wayan was incredibly warm, knowledgeable, and patient. He shared local insights, helped us take great photos, and made sure we were comfortable and having fun the entire day. It truly felt like a personalized experience rather than just a tour. If you’re visiting Ubud and want a guide who is professional, friendly, and genuinely passionate about sharing Balinese culture, I highly recommend Wayan. He made our trip so special!”

We walked through the market, but he recommended to buy souvenirs somewhere else, which was a very good advice from him. I booked for lunch, which was in a restaurant near the Tengalalang rice terrace, which we also visited. The restaurant was a nice place with good food.
