Candidasa Private Car with English Speaking Driver

Swing above the rice terraces while your driver waits below

Rent a private car with an English-speaking driver in Candidasa for a full day of self-directed sightseeing. You choose which of the region's landmarks to visit (Tegenungan Waterfall, Sacred Monkey Forest, Tegalalang Rice Terrace, Tirta Empul Temple and a traditional coffee plantation), and how long to spend at each one. The driver handles navigation and parking while you explore at your own pace. The itinerary can shift based on what interests you most.

The experience

Tegenungan Waterfall sits a 25-meter drop into a pool where you can swim, with walking trails threading through the lush surroundings. From there, the car takes you to Sacred Monkey Forest in Ubud, where monkeys move freely through a protected sanctuary and are fed and cared for by staff. The Tegalalang Rice Terrace spreads across the hillside in brilliant green steps, and a swing overlooking the paddies lets you pose with the terraced landscape as your backdrop.

Tirta Empul Temple is a holy water spring shrine, and the route includes a stop at a working coffee plantation where you watch traditional methods and see how beans are processed by hand. Because the driver stays with the vehicle, you control how long to linger at each place, whether that means an hour at the waterfall or just twenty minutes. The car itself is air-conditioned and modern, a practical base for a day that can reshape itself around what you want to see.

Parking fees and the driver's time are included. You pay separately for each attraction's entry ticket and for any meals or coffee you buy along the way. Eight to ten hours gives you room to visit all five stops without rushing, though you can skip any that don't appeal to you and spend the freed time deeper into one or two.

It may be canceled due to bad weather. If that happens, you're offered another date or a refund. Free cancellation up to 24 h before the start.

Can I change which temples and attractions I visit on the day?

Yes. The itinerary shifts based on your interests, so you can skip any stop and spend extra time at the ones that matter to you. The driver will adjust the route accordingly.

What is Tegenungan Waterfall like when I get there?

Tegenunnan Waterfall drops 25 meters into a pool where visitors swim and cool off. Walking trails run through the vegetation around it, so you can explore beyond the main viewing area if you want to.

Does the driver stay with me at each stop?

The driver stays with the car while you explore each attraction. You move at your own pace through the temples, waterfall, rice terrace and monkey forest.

What do I need to pay for separately?

Entry tickets to each attraction, meals and any extras like the swing photo at the rice terrace are not included in the car rental. Parking and the driver are covered.

How many hours is this tour?
