Ubud: Waterfalls, Water Temple & Rice Terraces Private Tour

1.Ubud: Waterfalls, Water Temple & Rice Terraces Private Tour

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 5,484 reviews · 10 hours · from $29Our pick

Spend up to 10 hours with an English-speaking driver-guide visiting Tirta Empul, three waterfalls, Tegalalang Rice Terrace, and a Balinese coffee plantation. Guides such as Atta, Ageng, Ariga, and I Wayan Top are praised for safe driving, cultural explanations, flexible timing, and taking photos.

“We booked this as a waterfall tour, but unfortunately it rained very heavily that day and it wasn’t safe to visit the original waterfalls. Thankfully, our guide Ariga quickly adjusted the plan and took us to a lovely coffee plantation instead, which was a great experience. He also managed to bring us to a nearby waterfall that was still accessible despite the weather. We really appreciated his flexibility and professionalism. Even with the unexpected rain, he made sure we still had a wonderful day”

2.Best of Bali Waterfalls: Tibumana, Tukad Cepung and Tegenungan

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 3,047 reviews · from $53

Spend about eight hours visiting Tukad Cepung, Tibumana, and Tegenungan with private hotel pickup, an air-conditioned vehicle, lunch, and bottled water. Guides such as Gusde, Krisda, and Gus Kumara also help with photos and local insight. Add snorkeling, rice terraces, monkeys, or east Bali sights.

“Our guide was great and so were the sights. I recommend this tour but there are a few things worth keeping in mind. We did the snorkel add on at Blue Lagoon (which was awesome) and started our tour at 9:30. I think we should have started at 8 at the latest because by the time we got to the 3rd waterfall it was dark out. The 930 time would be fine without the add on though. Also prepare for lots of stairs and walking in the streams, maybe that's obvious though. Great tour!”

Agung also turned out to be a fantastic photographer! He captured amazing pictures of us, which I truly appreciated since my travel companion isn’t the best with a camera—thanks to him, I now have beautiful memories to keep. On top of that, he kindly dropped us off at a different hotel than our pickup point, which…”

“Booking and communication was great. Our driver Komang was fantastic, punctual and flexible with our itinerary. He even did some great bargaining for me at a shop because I am rubbish at it :)) Also really enjoyed chatting with him on the ride around the sights 👍🏻 What didn’t sit well with my group was that the 2 x 1h of promised snorkelling in two different bays ended up being 30min & 15min respectively. The bays were quite crowded and the snorkelling guide was more interested in chatting up a young girl on the trip then pushed for a tip at lunch. The boat driver also nearly ran over my…”
