Mount Batur
In this tour we have the volcano in sight the whole time as we cross the frozen black lava, go through the black sands area, across to Caldera Point where you'll see Mount Batur, Mount Abang, Mount Agung, Lake Batur, the Indian Ocean, and across to Lombok, where on a non cloudy day you can see Mount Rinjani in the distance. After here we go to the Kintamani Bats on a cliff. These bats don't hide in a cave, even though there are caves close by; this means you'll be able to see the bats close up. Literally millions of them.

An educational journey to the volcanoes at Mount Batur
My family and I were in Bali in Dec 2024 and we had an enjoyable time at Mount Batur and our tour guides Mr Sadi and Mr Agus provided excellent service at Mount Batur. Mr Santi also provided excellent service in fetching us from the hotel to Mount Batur. We would like to thank Mr Russ for organing the tour and thank Mr Sadu, Mr Santi and Mr Agus for their excellent service. The weather was also excellent. We enjoyed watching the beautiful mountain scenery and the larvae. The tour included a temple where we could view the temple constructed from the larvae. We also viewed bats during the tour. As part of the tour we were provided with mineral water and a pair of sunglasses that were useful. We would recommend this tour as it is educational.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your kind words and for sharing your wonderful experience with us! The fact that you took the time to share this review on both TripAdvisor and Google is testament to us of how much you enjoyed your tour with your family. We are over the moon to hear that you and your family enjoyed your educational journey to Mount Batur. We're grateful that you appreciated the excellent service provided by our team, including Mr. Sadu, Mr. Agus, and Mr. Santi. We strive to ensure that every guest has a memorable and enjoyable experience, and we are delighted that we achieved that for you. We are also glad that you enjoyed the stunning mountain scenery, the fascinating lava formations, and the unique temple visit. We trust you found the tour both informative and captivating. Thank you again for your kind words and for choosing Expedition Bali Tours. We trust we'll be able to welcome you back to Bali for another adventure in the future. Sincerely, Russ - On behalf of the team at Expedition Bali Tours

Why this scores 57
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
4x4 Volcano Explorer Private Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Ubud.
How much does 4x4 Volcano Explorer Private Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $958333 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Ubud usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does 4x4 Volcano Explorer Private Tour take?
+
Plan for about 2 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Ubud is not rushed.
Is 4x4 Volcano Explorer Private Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 57 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 5 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Ubud, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule 4x4 Volcano Explorer Private Tour?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is 4x4 Volcano Explorer Private Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book 4x4 Volcano Explorer Private Tour?
+
Around 2 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Ubud can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Ubud and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does 4x4 Volcano Explorer Private Tour start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Ubud within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Ubud?
+
On Outty we rank every Ubud experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Mount Batur Jeep Adventure, Best of Ubud Full-Day Tour with Jungle Swing, Full-Day Tour to Water Temples and UNESCO Rice Terraces in Bali. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Ubud?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Ubud?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
