The Experience

Before You Go

Carry local cash for entry fees

Many temples and smaller attractions require cash for admission and parking—bring small denominations of Indonesian rupiah.

Wear shoes for steps and slick paths

Temples and waterfalls involve steep steps and wet stone; closed-toe shoes with grip reduce slips and fatigue.

Bring sun protection and refillable water

Highland sun and tropical humidity make sunscreen, a hat, and a refillable bottle essential for comfort across the day.

Respect temple dress codes

Temples require modest attire and often a sash—carry a sarong or be prepared to rent one at the site.

Local Knowledge

Hidden Gems

  • Quiet side trails at Tegallalang that bypass the busiest viewpoints for a calmer rice-terrace perspective
  • A roadside warung in Kintamani where locals eat while staring across Lake Batur—best for a simple volcano-view lunch

Wildlife

  • Long-tailed macaque (around temple forests)
  • Asian palm civet (nocturnal and elusive near plantations)

Conservation Note

Popular sites face erosion and overcrowding—stick to designated paths, avoid feeding wildlife, and support local warungs and guides to keep tourism benefits local.

Gunung Kawi’s rock-cut shrines date to the 11th century and reflect Bali’s long tradition of Hindu funerary architecture; Tegallalang rice terraces illustrate the subak communal irrigation system.

Common Questions

Are entrance fees included in the charter price?

No; most temple and waterfall entry fees, park levies, and optional performances are paid on-site in cash.

Where does the driver pick up and drop off?

The driver typically collects you from your hotel or agreed pickup point and returns you there at the end of the day—confirm exact pickup details when booking.

Is the driver also a tour guide?

Drivers are experienced and often speak English, but they may not provide in-depth guided histories—consider hiring local guides at key sites for interpretation.

Is this suitable for travelers with limited mobility?

Not recommended: sites include uneven paths and many stairs; travelers with significant mobility limitations should choose accessible attractions instead.
