What are people saying about Ubud

Audra_R, Sep 2026

This ended up being a...

This ended up being a private tour since I was traveling solo. It was nice because I had personalized attention and if I wanted more or less time at a certain spot that was easy to do. I did the 4am pick up which seemed so early, but was worth it for the gates of heaven. We still waited about 3hrs there for photos, but if we were later it would have been longer. Ardana was my driver and guide and he was very nice and took great pictures/videos. He explained the culture of the Balinese people to me, and was able to answer any questions I had. This was a great way to see a lot of the beautiful sites in Ubud as well as try some coffee and have fun on the swing!

Best of Ubud Attractions: Private All-Inclusive Tour

lucy_s, Sep 2026

Sensory journey of rice terraces, sacred forests and vibrant artisan villages

This is a brilliant way of exploring Ubud, customising it as you go. Our guide, Wayan Suyasa, was excellent. He was very helpful and informative, acting as a cultural bridge, sharing the hidden meanings behind Balinese rituals, temple architecture and traditions. I would highly recommend it as a way of getting to know the area and booking it privately gives the additional advantage of flexibility. Make sure that you have some Indonesian Rupiah (IDR) with you.

Mount Batur Sunrise Hike and Natural Hot Spring Option

Chelsea_C, Sep 2026

Breathtaking View!

The hike was incredible but definitely prepare for some chilly weather at the top of the mountain. Also highly recommend hiking shoes/boots. My boyfriend and I hike a ton normally so I’d say it’s a moderate to hard hike for experienced hikers. The view at the top was amazing, pictures don’t do it justice. They also provide a breakfast and eggs they cook with the volcanic steam! Our guide was so knowledgeable and friendly. He made the hike easier with his expertise of the mountain.

Enawan did an amazing job of showing us around Bali and gave us a really unique experience! He also offered to take us to a coffee plantation to do a coffee and tea tasting, and also bought us some local fruit to try. I would definitely recommend booking this tour to see all parts of the island!

Private Car Charter in Bali with an English-speaking Driver

Jenn_W, Aug 2026

Highly recommend driver Putu Rustina!!

We booked an 8 hour private car with Putu Rustina and it was phenomenal! He communicated promptly via WhatsApp so we know where he was. He arrive early to our pick up location and helped with luggage! He even had waters for us! Even though the streets of Bali were so hectic, he drove with ease and made us feel so safe! We asked to make a few stops and he even helped take our pictures (and somehow ended up even carrying my bag)! The pictures were great. His English is still a work in progress but there were no issues with communication. He was so nice and professional. Would highly recommend using Putu for your driving needs!

Our guide was very experienced and we had so much fun, even though The river was slow due to dry season. Totally recommended.

Ubud Authentic Balinese Cooking Class: 9 Dishes & Market Tour

Aileen_C, Jul 2026

Must do!

Our cooking class with Tumang Bali Cooking Class was one of the highlights of our trip. From the moment Wayan, the owner, picked us up near Ubud Palace, he made us feel like family. We were welcomed with delicious snacks and drinks upon arrival, setting the tone for a warm and authentic experience. Not only did we learn how to prepare nine delicious Balinese dishes, but we also gained a deeper appreciation for Balinese culture. One of the most memorable parts was learning how to make the beautiful traditional offerings and understanding their significance in daily life. It was amazing to see that many of the ingredients we used came directly from Wayan’s farm. Walking through the property and learning about the fresh herbs, spices, and produce added a special touch that you simply won't find in most cooking classes. Wayan made the entire experience both fun and educational, sharing stories, cultural insights, and plenty of laughs along the way. By the end of the class, we felt like we had learned so much more than just cooking. We have taken a cooking class in nearly every country we have visited, and this one stands out by a big margin. We would absolutely take this class again and will be recommending it to all of our friends. If you're looking for an authentic, hands-on, and memorable experience in Bali, Tumang Bali Cooking Class is a must!

Mount Batur Sunrise Trekking - Guided Hike with Breakfast on Top

Anika_R, Jun 2026

Gorgeous sunrise views and friendly guides!

This was one of the coolest things we did all trip! I will say that the hike is no joke. Basically straight uphill for about 2 miles to reach the top. Our guide was amazing and so helpful! She took so many pictures for us and let us stop for breaks when needed. The views were stunning at sunrise and totally worth the hefty hike. Would recommend shoes with serious grip (my partner slipped and scrapped her arm) and a sweatshirt/jacket for the top of the mountain as it gets very cold up there. They do let you rent jackets or blankets (which we did) for a small fee. Overall, it was a great experience!

Fantastic Day Exploring Ubud with an Exceptional Driver

Driver Ary was fantastic—friendly, professional, and made us feel safe and comfortable throughout the day. He took us to all the popular sites in Ubud, each of which we thoroughly enjoyed, and we had a delicious lunch along the way. It was a wonderful experience overall, and I would highly recommend this tour
