Denar was fantastic. He arrived on time in his cool car that had great air conditioning, clean and tidy. Showed us around the sights of Ubud for the entire day with stops at a local Batik store, silversmith and family wood carving. He gave guided tours and was very informative as well as helping take photos. Very highly recommended.

Very enjoyable tour with great guide Eddy. Perfect insight into Ubud. Monkey forest was pleasant with friendly monkeys! The sacred temple was stunning. Rice terraces great with many photo spots. Lunch was in a lovely setting within the rice fields. Very nice experience at the coffee farm. Got to taste Luwak coffee.

We had a great day out with Endra. Very polite and great with our kids. Endra recommended another monkey forest that was better for our younger kids who very much loved the experience! He took photos of us together and was very accommodating of our timeframe. Endras spoke English very well and answered any questions we had. Highly recommend this tour and guide to anyone visiting Bali.

Memorable one day tour in Ubud

Fadi_A, May 2026

We had a concern that we wanted a well-knowledged english speaking guide and at the same time a well organized driver that would help us cover the most attractions in Ubud in a day. We are a family of 4 people with our kids being 5 and 2 years old. We met guide John who was from around the area, very informed and he understood our rhythm from the first moment. He had a family of very young kids too and knew imediately how to connect with our kids and at the same time be an excellent guide for us. He took us to 5 very memorable locations, explained to us history, culture, religious context and helped us enjoy a very old temple ritual practiced thay invites purification of the body and soul. Our kids enjoyed every moment of the day. The best thing is John knew what time to take us to esch destination to avoid the busy queues and enjoy the best experience. We would certainly recommend this tour and especially with Guide John.

Excellent Experience and Highly recommended

Antonio_B, May 2026

It was fantastic and enjoyable for all tourist spot. Our tour guide was also nice and helpful for carrying our things through out the whole day tour.

The trip was so amazing!...

Lucas_M, May 2026

The trip was so amazing! Kojer, our tour guide, was so helpful and kind. He told us all about Bali and gave us such fun information. We loved having him as our tour guide and he made our experience so sweet! My wife and I are here on our honeymoon and he even went out of his way to bring us flowers. He took pictures of us and such cute videos. Cannot recommend this tour and Kojer enough!

Ubud Highlights

Gillian_S, May 2026

Endra was the perfect guide — a charming and knowledgeable young man who made our trip truly unforgettable. We had done a similar tour a few days earlier, but Endra went above and beyond to tailor the experience for us, taking us to other unique and interesting places that we absolutely loved. The rice terraces were simply stunning and one of the most beautiful sights we saw in Bali. Our highlight was visiting Pura Gunung Kawi Sebatu Water Temple, where we were guided through the purification ceremony and explained the Hindu traditions, prayers, and flower offerings to the gods and ancestors. It was such an enlightening and meaningful experience, and I would highly recommend it to anyone visiting. Endra also took many photos for us throughout the day, and they all turned out wonderfully. After the water temple visit, he brought us to a beautiful restaurant where we enjoyed lunch overlooking the rice fields — an unforgettable setting. Even when it rained during our waterfall visit, Endra was prepared with umbrellas and made sure we were comfortable at all times. I would also like to add that Endra was a very careful and considerate driver and his car was very comfortable. This was an extremely wonderful trip with a guide who genuinely had only our best interests at heart. Highly recommended!

We had such an amazing day FILLED with adventure. Kadek Jarot made our trip one we will never forget.

Great day trip with Eddie who is a very good driver and guide He assisted with commentary on the various sites and handled the busy traffic well

Thanks Endra, great guided tour!

Sahan_K, May 2026

Highly recommended, our guide Endra, was so knowledgeable and informed about every place we visited. Our visit to the water temple in particular was a highlight as Endra explained much of the local customs and meanings to us while there, it was a very interesting and enjoyable experience. He really helped us feel at ease no matter where we went, and even had some great local recommendations on places to visit and eat! Thanks so much Endra, can’t recommend him enough to anyone considering a guided tour!

The best of the best in Ubud!

Raunak_B, May 2026

We did the best of Ubud tour with Noky. Our first stop was the Monkey palace. Since the main monkey palace was crowded, Noky took us to the Sangeh Monkey forest which was great! He also took great photos and videos of us at the Tegalallang rice terrace and took us to a temple for the water purification process. Definitely recommend Noky to everyone wanting to see the best of Ubud in a day!

Perfect way to see the sights of Ubud in a day

Not the best of Ubud

Melinda_C, May 2026

We booked the Best of Ubud trip today and overall it was a good experience with some ups and downs. • Flexibility: The itinerary was adaptable, which made it easy to choose options that suited us. • Driver: Very friendly and accommodating, which helped us feel comfortable throughout the day. • Car swap: The first car had an issue, but it was quickly swapped over without much disruption. On the downside: • English skills: The driver’s conversational English was limited, which made communication a little challenging. • Cleanliness: Unfortunately, the car had bugs/cockroaches crawling around, which was unpleasant and took away from the overall comfort. In summary, while the trip itself was enjoyable and flexible, the vehicle condition and communication could be improved to make this truly the “best of Ubud.”

A jam packed itinerary but so wonderful to see the culture and scenic beauty of Ubud, Bali in one day. The lunch stop was very special next to rice paddies and the food was really delicious. All in all a fun day with amazing driver and guide, thanks Gede.
