Great day tour in Bali
Great tour, covering all unique and iconic Bali sights in one day. Definitely go with this option, it's worth it if you don't want to rent a car or a scooter. My guide was Tageg, and he was a great guy and a great guide. I discovered a lot about Bali culture, religion and history with his help.

The main operator gave...
The main operator gave the job to someone else and the guy who came his car didn’t have the aircon and he drove at a speed of 40 kmph all the way wasting our entire day. So not really shoot with the service. Please choose other operators but check with them before.
Response from the operator: Dear Sachin, Thank you for your feedback! We're sorry to hear your experience didn't fully meet expectations. We're reviewing your concerns carefully and would like to discuss with the team. Your feedback helps us grow! Kind regards, Eza

We had an amazing guide...
We had an amazing guide in Aris, he was super friendly, extremely knowledgeable and very helpful. He provided us with good insight into Balinese culture, answered our numerous questions and knew where to take the best photos. Aris even stopped at a little street vendor so we could try Durian.
Response from the operator: Hi Iona_M, Thank you for taking the time to write a review. We are glad to know that you enjoyed the tour with our team and i will forward this to our driver/guide team. We hope to see you again in the future. Kind regards, Eza

The best day in Bali with the best tour guide Kawi
The driver and tour guide Kawi made the day trip exceptionally fun and full of learning. He is very professional, passionate, respectful and fun and made me feel very comfortable during the whole trip. I learned so so much from the places we visited, people and things we saw on our way, but most of all I enjoyed talking to Kawi. He kindly answered all my questions about Balinese life, history, culture and many other things, which I really appreciate. I booked this tour at the very last minute and gave Kawi a request that made our schedule difficult to work, but he was flexible and made impossible possible for me. Thank you again, Kawi! I highly recommend this tour.
Response from the operator: Dear Trip036, We are so grateful for your kind words and 5-star rating! Our team works hard to ensure every customer has a memorable tour experience. We look forward to welcoming you back to Bali! Kind regards, Eza

Bali UNESCO Sites: Water Temples and Jatiluwih Rice Terrace Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Ubud.
How much does Bali UNESCO Sites: Water Temples and Jatiluwih Rice Terrace Tour cost?
+
Prices start at Rp 150,000 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 Bali UNESCO Sites: Water Temples and Jatiluwih Rice Terrace Tour take?
+
Plan for about 9.5 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 Bali UNESCO Sites: Water Temples and Jatiluwih Rice Terrace Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 63 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 32 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 Bali UNESCO Sites: Water Temples and Jatiluwih Rice Terrace 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 Bali UNESCO Sites: Water Temples and Jatiluwih Rice Terrace Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 9.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Bali UNESCO Sites: Water Temples and Jatiluwih Rice Terrace Tour?
+
Around 11 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 9.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Bali UNESCO Sites: Water Temples and Jatiluwih Rice Terrace 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 Private 1-Day Ubud Highlights Tour, Mount Batur Jeep Adventure, Mount Batur Sunrise Trekking (Private Tour and Breakfast at Restaurant). 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.
