What to expect

You'll be collected early morning and spend the day in a private vehicle with an English-speaking driver. The Barong Dance is theatrical and energetic—expect crowds but a reserved seat. The Monkey Forest walk is straightforward jungle paths; monkeys are habituated but still wild, so keep distance. Rice terraces involve standing and photo stops; wear sturdy shoes. The drive to Kintamani climbs through cooler elevation. Lunch overlooks the volcanic landscape. Temple visits require modest dress (sarongs provided if needed). Tegenungan Waterfall has a natural pool for a quick dip. The pace is steady but not rushed; timings flex to your preference.

Good to know

Bring sunscreen, hat, and comfortable walking shoes. The tour isn't strenuous but involves elevation changes; those with heart conditions should reconsider. Smart casual dress; temples require covered shoulders and knees. Vegetarian meals available if requested at booking. Infants under two travel free. Flexible scheduling can be arranged on request.
