Itinerary
Traditional Balinese House Compound is one of the best place to visit in Bali. That located in the village of Batuan, Gianyar regency, Bali. 45 minutes drive from Denpasar airport. The buildings are mostly designed by Balinese architectures taking daily social Balinese life concept pointing out the hospitality. It is very charming concept of house building consisted on several building with different purpose of activities.
Campuhan Ridge Walk is a free and easy nature trek, popular among repeat visitors to the central highland town of Ubud. The area provides a great retreat from the more hectic southern parts of the island, but this trail presents an even more pristine outback to escape from the contemporary boutique, guesthouse and restaurant-lined Jalan Raya Ubud. While the hike lets you enjoy cool fresh air and probably the most gorgeous hillside vista in the region, it also allows you to shed off some calories too with its nine-kilometre hill track.
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.
One of the busiest water temples in Indonesia, Tirta Empul is a temple considered sacred by Balinese Hindu community. The temple has several holy springs which are said to have been created by The God Indra and believed to be blessed water that could purify those who bathe there.
Tegenungan Waterfall is one for nature lovers who happen to be staying in Ubud or have neighbouring Sukawati among their tour itineraries. The falls are conveniently located halfway between Ubud and Bali’s provincial capital of Denpasar, and is considered the closest natural attraction of its kind that you can reach within only a half-hour transfer southeast from Ubud town. Getting to the falls is a pleasant drive down paved village roads lined with stretches of green rice fields on both sides.

Traveler reviews
Title: Temples, terraces and a waterfall
Fantastic first day in Bali. We covered a temple gate, rice terraces, a volcano viewpoint, a gorgeous waterfall, and a temple with very cheeky monkeys, all without feeling rushed. The early start meant we had the waterfall almost to ourselves. My tour co-ordinator was Wayan Netra. On time, clean cool car, safe and smooth on Bali roads, great English and local stories on every drive. He helped take a lot of photos and took better pictures of me than I take of myself. Tip: travel light to the monkey forest.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The Best Tour Guide in Bali – Thank You, Netra
Our experience in Ubud was truly unforgettable, and a huge part of that was thanks to our amazing guide, Netra. He took me and my family to all of the must-see sights around Ubud while also showing us hidden gems that we would never have found on our own. From the very beginning, Netra was incredibly friendly, professional, punctual, and knowledgeable. He shared fascinating information about Balinese culture, traditions, and history, making every stop much more meaningful. He never rushed us and always made sure we had enough time to enjoy each location and take photos. What really made the difference was his kindness and genuine care. He made us feel welcome, comfortable, and safe throughout the entire trip. His recommendations for local food and viewpoints were fantastic, and he was always happy to answer our questions with a smile. If you're visiting Bali, especially Ubud, I cannot recommend Netra highly enough. He turned a great sightseeing trip into an unforgettable experience for our whole family. Thank you, Netra, for making our time in Bali so special—we hope to see you again on our next visit! 10/10 – Highly recommended!
