You can only spend so long on a sunbed, so get ready to soak up some culture on this full-day tour of Bali's UNESCO treasures. Your personal driver will ensure you get the local history as you go.
You'll see the reflections of the stunning Pura Ulun Danu Beratan water temple, surrounded by its ancient moat. Then, immerse yourself in emerald-green paddy fields and stop for lunch with incredible views. A golden sunset at Tanah Lot is the icing on the cake before heading home.
First, get a head start at Pura Taman Ayun, a sky-piercing complex full of Mengwi-era temples whose intricate roofs seem to disappear into the clouds. This temple and its glimmering moat was the main worship spot at the height of the Mengwi Kingdom, one of the original nine kingdoms of Bali which survived up to 1891 until the Dutch East Indies began its conquests in Bali.
On the shores of Danau Beratan sits Pura Beratan, also known as the 'floating temple'. It's one of Bali's most photographed temples. Your guide will show you a great local place for lunch here, which comes with a side-order of sweeping views.
Next up, it's rice fields as far as the eye can see at Jatiluwih Rice Terraces. The scenery is lush, undulating, and breathtaking. Take your time to relax and walk among the evergreen terraces that are still worked by farmers today.
Your last stop for the day is Tanah Lot, the ancient and romantic Hindu sea temple perched high on the rocks, facing the ocean. You'll arrive as the late sun starts to streak the sky. Why not grab yourself a chilled coconut and watch the sun sink into the sea?
Terima kasih, beautiful Bali!
