Ubud in Bali is home to ancient temples and scenic rice fields. This private full-day tour lasts about 10 hours and includes visits to several notable sites. The trip begins with a visit to Gunung Kawi, an 11th-century temple complex featuring 10 rock-cut shrines carved into a cliff face beside the Pakerisan River. Travelers spend about an hour exploring this site, which involves navigating some stairs. Next, the tour continues to Tirta Empul Temple, known for its holy spring water. Visitors can watch local people perform purification rituals at the crystal-clear fountains and may choose to participate. Afterward, there is a short trek of around 35 minutes at the Tegalalang Rice Terrace, where guests can walk among the rice paddies to observe the farming environment. Lunch is provided at a jungle restaurant, offering a meal amid natural surroundings. The day ends with a visit to the Sacred Monkey Forest Sanctuary in Ubud, where about 700 Balinese long-tailed macaques live freely within a 12.5-hectare forest that contains three temples. The tour includes private transport with an air-conditioned vehicle, a driver-guide, hotel pickup and drop-off, bottled water, and all taxes and fees.
