Itinerary
Kanto Lampo Waterfall is a beautiful and easily accessible waterfall located in the Gianyar Regency of Bali, not far from Ubud. Unlike some other waterfalls in Bali that require long hikes, Kanto Lampo is relatively easy to reach, with a short walk from the parking area to the waterfall itself. This makes it a popular choice for those looking for a scenic, yet convenient, natural spot to visit. The waterfall is unique in that it flows over a series of rock formations, creating a cascading effect rather than a single vertical drop. The water tumbles down the rocks into a shallow pool, making it a perfect spot for visitors to stand under the falls, take a refreshing dip, or pose for photos. The surrounding jungle setting adds to the beauty, giving the site a tranquil and tropical feel. Kanto Lampo is not as well-known as some of Bali's other waterfalls, but it has been gaining popularity due to its photogenic appearance and easy accessibility.
Tibumana Waterfall is a hidden gem located in the Bangli Regency of Bali, Indonesia. Known for its serene and unspoiled beauty, it is one of the less crowded waterfalls in Bali, offering a peaceful escape from the more tourist-heavy spots. The waterfall is about a 30-minute drive from Ubud, making it a great destination for those staying in the area. Tibumana is a single-drop waterfall that cascades into a clear pool of water, surrounded by lush greenery and jungle foliage. The area around the waterfall is tranquil, and the walk to reach it involves a short trek through the jungle along well-maintained paths and steps, passing small streams and tropical plants. The waterfall is considered ideal for swimming, as the pool is calm and not very deep. Tibumana Waterfall is also associated with some spiritual significance, as it is close to a temple and often visited by locals for religious purposes. Visitors are encouraged to respect the surroundings, especially during any local ceremony
Tukad Cepung Waterfall is a stunning and somewhat hidden gem located in the Bangli Regency of Bali. What makes this waterfall unique is its setting inside a cave-like canyon, where the water cascades down from a rocky cliff into a shallow pool, with sunlight filtering in from above. This creates a magical effect, especially when the sun's rays shine through the canyon, casting beautiful beams of light onto the waterfall and the surrounding walls. Reaching Tukad Cepung requires a bit of an adventurous trek, as visitors must descend a series of steps and walk through a narrow pathway between rock formations and shallow streams. The journey to the waterfall adds to its allure, making it feel like a hidden paradise tucked away from the usual tourist spots.
Tirta Empul Temple is a sacred Hindu water temple located near the town of Tampaksiring in Bali, Indonesia. It's famous for its holy spring water, which is believed to have curative properties and is used for ritual purification ceremonies. The temple complex dates back to the 10th century and is dedicated to Vishnu, the Hindu god of water. Visitors to Tirta Empul can observe or participate in the purification rituals, where devotees bathe in the spring water to cleanse themselves spiritually and physically. The temple's architecture features intricate stone carvings, shrines, and pavilions set amidst lush greenery, creating a serene and spiritually significant atmosphere. Tirta Empul is not only a religious site but also a cultural and historical landmark that offers insight into Bali's rich heritage and traditions. Here is a place where you will see how the locals do the water purifications rituals, you also can do the same to experience real of local’s life.
Tegalalang Rice Terrace is one of Bali's most famous and picturesque rice terraces, located in the village of Tegalalang, just north of Ubud. Known for its stunning beauty and unique traditional irrigation system called "subak," the terraces are a prime example of Bali's rich agricultural heritage. The area is renowned for its scenic, tiered rice paddies that cascade down the hillside, creating a mesmerizing view that attracts tourists, photographers, and nature lovers. The Tegalalang Rice Terrace offers visitors the opportunity to walk along the narrow paths between the fields, take in the panoramic views, and learn about the traditional Balinese farming methods.

I booked late the night before and was very happy that they picked me up from the hotel the next morning. The full-day Ubud tour (Bali Swing, Rice Terrace, restaurant & cafe, and Kanto Lampo Waterfall) with guide Eka was very comfortable and enjoyable. Eka took great photos and was so kind that I would like to do another tour with him next time. 👍
We had an excellent tour with Ketut as our guide and driver. He was very professional, punctual, and knowledgeable throughout the trip. He guided us smoothly to Tirta Empul Temple, the coffee plantation, and the waterfalls, and explained the culture and history clearly. He was also very patient, helpful with photos, and made sure we were comfortable the whole time. Highly recommended if you want a stress-free and enjoyable Bali experience.
One Day in Bali 🌿 From rice terraces to waterfalls to a water temple. Nature + culture, all in one day. And every place... was much more beautiful than I imagined." Our guide was incredibly helpful with everything, providing recommendations for every aspect of our trip.
Our guide, Wayan, is very diligent and easy to be with! The car is comfortable. We started early so the temple and the falls are not crowded. My partner and I got to enjoy Goa Gajah with backstory/explanation and it feels exclusive because no other tourist are in the area yet. He gave suggestions on the itinerary because some falls are not good in some season and some are more enjoyable. He even taught us how to pray! He's very respectful to women and is very accommodating to our needs. We enjoyed Ubud a lot thanks to him! It's better to tour around with a local 💯
Our tour guide this time was Mr. Juna, who was very responsible, friendly, and knowledgeable. He also helped us take many beautiful photos and videos. We went to Ubud and visited the must-see attractions that we wanted to see.
What a wonderful day it has been. We did customized Ubud Tour with a very friendly and accomodating driver/guide - Mr Nyoman. He travelled almost 2hrs to pick us up from Seminyak and he made our day extra special by taking us to some of Ubud’s tourist spots. We did enjoy the Bali Swing, shopping at Ubud Market, explored the wonders of the Water Temple, got cleansed at Tirta Empul, had a great coffee and tea at Coffee Farm.
Our experience in Ubud was unforgettable❤️. We had an amazing trip to the best places in Ubud. GEDE was our english-speaking guide and best driver and he made everything easier for us. Time was flying with him telling us a lot of interesting things in Bali culture, laughing and making us the best pictures in highlights of Ubud. I just can’t thank you enough, GEDE! I recommend him wholeheartedly. ❤️
