Luxury Private Bali Tour: Kintamani, Sekumpul & Ulun Danu

Your private English-speaking driver will pick you up at 08:00 AM from your hotel in the covered areas: Seminyak, Kuta, Jimbaran, Nusa Dua, Denpasar, Sanur, Ubud, and surrounding areas. Travel comfortably in a private air-conditioned vehicle as you begin your journey to Bali’s scenic highlands. If your hotel is outside these areas, an extra charge applies and can be paid directly to the driver.

Arrive at the famous Tegalalang Rice Terrace, known for its dramatic tiered landscapes and traditional Subak irrigation system, which has been practiced in Bali for centuries. The terraces showcase the harmony between Balinese culture and nature, creating a picture-perfect panorama that captures the essence of rural Bali.

Walk along the stone pathways and wooden bridges, taking in the lush greenery and layered valleys. You can pause to observe local farmers tending to the paddies or learn about the irrigation system that sustains these iconic rice fields. The cool breeze, rustling leaves, and tranquil atmosphere make it a refreshing start to the day and a paradise for photography enthusiasts.

Travel to Kintamani, the highland region overlooking Mount Batur and Lake Batur, one of Bali’s most iconic volcanic landscapes. The viewpoint offers expansive panoramas of the active volcano, its crater lake, and surrounding villages. The combination of misty mountains, lush forests, and volcanic terrain creates an unforgettable visual experience.

Take your time to enjoy the scenery, breathe the crisp mountain air, and capture stunning photographs. Your driver can guide you to the best spots for panoramic views. Optional local markets nearby offer fresh Balinese fruits, snacks, and souvenirs for those who want a cultural touch.

Lunch is not included, but your driver can recommend several nearby restaurants offering authentic Balinese or Indonesian cuisine with spectacular views of Mount Batur or the crater lake. Take a relaxing break to enjoy local flavors, sip coffee or tea, and admire the surrounding highland scenery.

This is also a perfect moment to recharge and prepare for the next adventure into North Bali’s natural wonders.

Next, visit Sekumpul Waterfall, widely regarded as Bali’s most breathtaking waterfall. Nestled in a lush jungle valley, this hidden gem features multiple streams cascading from towering cliffs into a clear natural pool below. The surrounding tropical forest creates a serene and immersive environment, rich with exotic flora and the soothing sound of rushing water.

From the parking area, you will embark on a walk through forested village paths, descend stairways, and cross small rivers, approximately 30 minutes to reach the waterfall. The trek involves walking through shallow streams, so guests are advised to bring a change of clothes and wear sandals or water-friendly shoes. Along the way, enjoy the vibrant jungle life and glimpses of traditional village scenery.

At the waterfall, take your time to relax, feel the refreshing mist, or capture dramatic photographs. This stop offers a truly unforgettable natural experience, combining adventure, tranquility, and awe-inspiring scenery.

Conclude the tour at the Ulun Danu Beratan Temple, a lakeside water temple dedicated to Dewi Danu, goddess of lakes and rivers. Located in the cool highlands of Bedugul, the temple appears to float on Lake Beratan, especially during high water levels, framed by misty mountains and perfectly manicured gardens.

Explore the multi-tiered pagoda-style shrines and serene lakeside pathways. The temple grounds provide insight into Balinese spiritual practices, agricultural traditions, and architectural artistry. This is a tranquil spot to reflect, take photographs, and enjoy the peaceful atmosphere of one of Bali’s most iconic cultural landmarks.

After a full day exploring Bali’s highlands, waterfalls, and sacred temples, your private driver will return you comfortably to your hotel within the covered areas. If your hotel is outside the covered zones, an extra charge applies, payable directly to the driver.

Relax during the ride back and reflect on a day filled with cultural discovery, natural beauty, and unforgettable memories.
