Best of Ubud Sightseeing Private All Inclusive Tour

About this tour

This 10-hour private tour hits Ubud's cultural landmarks and natural sights in one arc: the Sacred Monkey Forest with its resident macaques, Tegalalang's tiered rice paddies, Tegenungan Waterfall, and Batuan Temple. You'll stop at working craft studios—silver, painting, batik, wood carving—to watch artisans mid-process. An English-speaking guide drives you between spots in a cool vehicle, lunch at a local warung is built in, and entrance fees are covered.

Highlights

• Watch macaques move through the Sacred Monkey Forest Sanctuary
• Walk among Tegalalang's stacked rice terraces at close range
• Cool off at Tegenungan Waterfall with shower facilities on-site
• Tour working craft studios: silver, batik, painting, wood carving
• Eat traditional lunch at a local restaurant
• Private guide and air-conditioned transport throughout

What to expect

You'll start early and move between five or six main stops over seven hours, with an hour of driving time woven in. Each craft workshop is brief—you'll observe skilled hands working, not participate. The monkey forest is free-roaming; keep belongings secure and distance from the animals. Tegalalang involves walking on uneven terrain between paddy walls. Tegenungan is swimmable and comes with changing rooms. Batuan Temple is open-air and can be warm. Lunch is unhurried and fills most travellers.

Good to know

Wear sturdy walking shoes and bring a light layer for air-con interiors. The waterfall stop means you can swim, so pack a towel or use the changing facilities. Not suitable if you have spinal issues, are pregnant, or have cardiovascular concerns. Bring cash for tips and any souvenirs; the guide will know where goods are fairly priced.
