Ubud · TOUR REVIEWS
A week in the valley or three days between flights, the problem is the same: too much within an hour’s drive, one itinerary. The 15 below are the days that earn their place, priced and timed, with the full catalogue underneath when you want to go deeper.

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!”

“Agung was a thoughtful and helpful guide. The nice monkeys were the best part of my experience as I had many warnings about monkeys in Bali, but the monkeys were very calm at the place our guide took us. We also visited beautiful rice terraces, waterfalls, a temple and had plenty of chances to buy some local products. Thank you for the amazing memories!”

See Bali’s graceful Legong dance at Ubud Palace, with gold costumes, gamelan music, royal stories, and excellent value at $6.
“The dance was lovely, but make sure to read the stories printed on the pamphlets that are handed out to you or you may get confused. I reached the venue 30 minutes prior to the show and it was already full. Be early so you get your choice of seating. They’ve also placed mats on the ground in front of the stage, but you need to buy a drink from one of the aunties selling them to sit there. Overall, it’s a great experience! A 7 PM show will end around 9:15 so make sure to plan your dinner accordingly.”
