Traveler reviews

Amazing views and snorkeling
I applied for a private tour with a Japanese-speaking guide. In the morning, he picked me up at the hotel where I was staying and took me to Sanur. I took a speedboat to Nusa Penida. From there, I did some sightseeing by motorbike. Nusa Penida has unpaved roads, so it was thrilling to sit on the back of a motorbike and tour the narrow, bumpy roads. It was a fun tour that I had never experienced in Japan. The snorkeling was great because the sea was beautiful and I could see a lot of coral and fish.

Best Day Trip!!
Highly recommend doing the full island day trip, it is 100% worth it! You get to visit the 4 major places (atuh beach, treehouse, kelingking beach and crystal bay!) Great for photo opportunities! Our tour guide/driver Dede was the best! Such a friendly, hospitable and informative guide! He really showed us the beauty of Nusa Penida Island and was also a great photographer! A must visit place when travelling to Bali/Indonesia!!

East Bali Tour: Besakih Mother Temple: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Ubud.
How much does East Bali Tour: Besakih Mother Temple cost?
+
Prices start at Rp 383,872 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 East Bali Tour: Besakih Mother Temple 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 East Bali Tour: Besakih Mother Temple worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 51 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 2 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 East Bali Tour: Besakih Mother Temple?
+
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 East Bali Tour: Besakih Mother Temple 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 East Bali Tour: Besakih Mother Temple?
+
Around 1 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 East Bali Tour: Besakih Mother Temple 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.
What is included in East Bali Tour: Besakih Mother Temple?
+
Included: Pickup & Drop off Hotel; Private Car (Air-Conditioned); Driver/Local Guide; Mineral Water; and Entrance Fee. Not included: Breakfast; Lunch; and Personal Expenses (shopping, etc). Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Does East Bali Tour: Besakih Mother Temple include hotel pickup?
+
Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 10 listed pickup locations in and around Ubud. Be ready about 30 minutes before the start time.
What languages is East Bali Tour: Besakih Mother Temple offered in?
+
It runs in English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for East Bali Tour: Besakih Mother Temple?
+
Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.
What happens to East Bali Tour: Besakih Mother Temple if the weather is bad?
+
It generally runs rain or shine, so dress for the forecast in Ubud. Standard cancellation terms apply: free cancellation up to 24 hours before the start.
