Visit Besakih Temple, Penglipuran Village, Jambul Hill, and Kertagosa on a guided 10-hour Bali culture tour for $35.
“This trip is packed with visiting many temples, but as each of them is located in different scenery, it is very interesting. The traditional village, however, was full of tourists from Java. To be honest, I have never seen so many tourist in any other place in Bali during my January stay. However, the village is very lovely and definetely worth visiting.”
Explore East Bali’s Tukad Cepung waterfall, Besakih, Tirta Gangga, Mount Agung, and Lempuyang with a private guide from Seminyak.
“We really enjoyed our best of East Bali tour with our guide Jana the waterfall was great and the temples were beautiful”
Climb Mount Agung from Besakih for a demanding sunrise trek, island views, volcanic slopes, and a private English-guided experience.
“Firstly it was really difficult - I’ve run ultramarathons and have climbed one other 3,000m+ peak and this was up there in difficulty. Part of the challenge was not having the right equipment - you need a big bag to carry 3L+ of water and huge snack/lunch boxes. You could really do with specialist climbing/hiking shoes thatre good with slippy volcanic rock. And cold weather and rain protection gear is a must. The tour should do more to let you know about this before the trip.”
Pick a coast, a temple or a crater.
