The Experience
Eight to ten hours gives you room to move between Ubud's main draws without rushing. The driver picks you up at your hotel in Ubud, Sanur or Benoa port and waits while you decide which stops matter most—Tegallalang's stacked rice terraces, Tirta Empul's spring temple, the Monkey Forest, Goa Gajah cave temple, Kintamani's volcanic views, Penglipuran village, or one of the three waterfalls scattered across the region. You discuss the route when you meet, so there's no preset itinerary to work around.
The car is air-conditioned, parking and fuel are covered, and the driver navigates while you watch the landscape change. Because you're choosing where to stop, entrance tickets stay separate from the tour price—that way you only pay for the sites you actually enter. Lunch is on you, though the driver knows where to eat. The flexibility is the point: if a temple takes longer than expected or a market pulls you in, the day adjusts.
This works as a single full day or can be split across multiple departures if you prefer shorter runs. The driver speaks English and can answer questions about what you're seeing, though this is a tour built around your pace, not a guided commentary.
What’s included
- Private transportation in an air-conditioned vehicle.
- pickup and drop-off at your Ubud, Sanur or Benoa hotel.

Is this one for you?The 8 to 10 hour span means you're moving between stops without a rigid schedule, so if a temple or market holds your attention longer than planned, the day absorbs it. This suits travelers who want to see multiple sites across Ubud's region but prefer to decide the route on the ground rather than follow a fixed itinerary.

Top questions
Can I visit temples and waterfalls on the same day in Ubud?
Yes. Ubud's temples (Tirta Empul, Goa Gajah, Gunung Kawi), waterfalls (Tegenungan, Kanto Lampo, Tibumana) and rice terraces are spread across the region, and an 8 to 10 hour private tour gives you time to see several in one day. Your driver will route them efficiently based on which ones you choose.
What's included in the price, and what do I pay separately?
The private car, driver, fuel, parking and air conditioning are included. You pay separately for entrance fees at temples, waterfalls and other attractions, and for your own lunch. Gratuities for the driver are optional.
How does the itinerary work if I don't know what I want to see?
You discuss it with the driver when he picks you up at your hotel. He can suggest a standard route covering Ubud's most famous sites—the Monkey Forest, Tegallalang rice terraces, Tirta Empul temple and others—or build something around your specific interests, whether that's shopping, villages, landscapes or religious sites.
Where does the driver pick me up and drop me off?
Pickup and drop-off are in Ubud, Sanur or Benoa port, depending on where you're staying. Confirm your hotel location when you book.
Is the driver a guide, or just a driver?
The driver is English-speaking and can answer questions about what you see, but this is a private car tour built around your choices, not a guided tour with prepared commentary. You set the pace and decide where to stop.
How many people can ride in the car?
The tour is private, so it's your group in one air-conditioned vehicle. Infants can sit on an adult's lap or travel in a pram or stroller.
