Top Ubud Lunch Cruises

Take a hot air balloon ride over the lush interior of Bali for excellent views of the paddies, jungles, mountains, and hot springs that span across the island by booking this experience, which includes stops at the Goa Gajah (Elephant Cave) temple and at the Ubud Market. This tour departs from Ubud's Chedi Club, with hotel pickup and drop-off from select Balinese towns included.

Have a great day out in Ubud on this full day out, where you will visit the Monkey Forest, take a jungle swing, walk through the rice terrace, learn about the water temple, and also spend time at the waterfalls. Round trip transfers are included in the price from most places. Note that entrance fees and lunch are extra expenses.

Experience a relaxing arrival into Bali Ngurah Rai Airport with a guaranteed arrival transfer to Ubud or Sanur.

Suitable for up to four travelers, this door-to-door transfer will take you from the airport all the way to your accommodation in air-conditioned comfort.

Discover Ubud’s picturesque surroundings on a morning or afternoon electric bicycle tour. On your electric bike, you’ll need to exert only as much effort as you choose to visit the beautiful Tegalalang Rice Terrace and pass local villages cradled by Ubud’s verdant plantations. During intermittent stops, you’ll listen to informative commentary from your guide and enjoy a delicious lunch or dinner before drop-off at your Ubud hotel.

Spare yourself the stress and risk of self-driving Bali on this private door-to-door tour.

Adrenaline junkies will thrill to this adventure combo: white-water rafting the Ayung River and roaring through Bali’s lush countryside on an ATV.
