Itinerary
Ubud Monkey Forest is a nature reserve and also a religious temple complex with great significance to the local Balinese people. Home to about 340 Crab-eating Macaque monkeys, there is no doubt you will see masses of local wildlife in their natural habitat. The monkeys are split into 4 groups or families, and occupy different spots of the park.
Ubud Palace where the local people said by Puri Saren is one of the famous places of interest in Bali. It is the favorite places to visit during Ubud Tour. It is located right in the center of Ubud Village, the most famous tourist place in the island with live cultures are performed every night. It is featured by the Ubud King's Family Temple located in the north east of the palace.
Ubud Market it's tenants provide every souvenir item imaginable, from silver jewelry, and precious stones to batiks, T-shirts, beach sarongs, wood carvings, and cane work bags. Each stall is packed with goodies; some items are even hung from the ceilings. Since it's a traditional market, expect crammed allies and unpleasant smells every now and then.
Immerse yourself in an unforgettable adventure at Happy Swing Bali, where the thrill of swinging from a cliff meets the awe-inspiring beauty of the wilderness. Step into a world where adrenaline and natural splendor collide, offering you the opportunity to soar through the air against a backdrop of majestic landscapes. With each swing, feel the exhilaration coursing through your veins, as you capture breathtaking moments that will leave you in awe of the sheer magnificence of your surroundings.
The Tegallalang rice terraces alone offers a scenic outlook that spreads down before you and away to the rice paddies on the slopes across the valley. The high roadside location is cool and breezy and it is a well-known spot for tourists to stop and take photos. Painters and nature lovers also enjoy visiting this spot, and there are numerous art kiosks and cafes near the ledge offering their ware.

Traveler reviews
Wonderful day in Bali!
Monkey forest and rice terrace was great! Completely worthwhile to see. Palace was nothing special and could have been missed. Our driver Mera shared so many interesting details about the sights along the way which truly added to our experience!
Nice day seeing the sights!
Monkey forest was great! Take a selfie with the monkeys, it’s was the best part! Rice terrace was amazing but the Palace was just ho-hum. Our driver Wena was very nice and attentive but we were disappointed that he wasn’t a “guide” so we didn’t get any insights into the local culture or sights that we passed along the way.
Recommend this trip
Fabulous trip. Budi our driver was wonderful, kept us on track for our itinerary and took us to a wonderful restaurant too. The most enjoyable aspect is he didn’t push us to do other things and was very good at giving us background information without overwhelming us! The little extras of bottled water in the car was gratefully received. I would definitely recommend this trip!
Very good
Amazing day, great exciting itinerary. Our driver Mr. Budi is very experienced and careful driver, made our trip relaxed and enjoyable. He is a great guide too!
Great service
Our guide was very professional and respectful. Always on time and his car was very clean. Monkey forest and rice terrace were great. The Palace is not worth the visit and art market is good if you want to do some shopping.
