What you'll see and do
Ulun Danu Bratan
At Ulun Danu Beratan Temple, visitors can enjoy a blend of spiritual culture and stunning lakeside scenery. Here are the top things to do: Admire the "Floating" Temple: The main attraction is the Pura Lingga Petak, which appears to float on the water when the lake levels are high. It is one of the most photographed sights in Bali. Explore the Temple Gardens: The complex features beautifully manicured gardens with colorful flowers, towering trees, and various shrines that showcase unique Balinese Hindu architecture. Boating on Lake Beratan: You can rent a traditional Jukung (outrigger boat), a swan-shaped pedal boat, or a speedboat to cruise the lake and get a closer view of the temple from the water. Photography: Given the misty mountain backdrop and the reflective lake surface, it is a paradise for photographers, especially in the early morning when the fog rolls in.

Twin Lake View
At the Twin Lake View Point in Wanagiri, tourists are treated to one of the most breathtaking panoramic vistas in Northern Bali. Perched high on a mountain ridge, this spot offers a bird's-eye view of Lake Buyan and Lake Tamblingan simultaneously. Here is what visitors can do there: Photography and Selfies: This is the primary draw. The area is lined with various creative platforms—such as giant bird nests, bamboo lookouts, and "prows" of wooden boats—extending over the edge of the cliff, providing a dramatic backdrop of the lakes and mist-covered mountains. Enjoy the Panoramic View: Simply soak in the scenery. The two lakes were once a single lake until a landslide separated them in the 19th century. The cool mountain air and the contrast between the blue water and lush green rainforest make it a peaceful stop.

Banyumala Twin Waterfalls
Banyumala Twin Waterfalls is one of Bali’s most beautiful "hidden gems," offering a much more serene and natural experience compared to the more commercialized falls. Here is what tourists can do there: Swim in the Natural Pool: The most popular activity is taking a dip in the large, crystal-clear basin at the bottom of the falls. The water is cool, fresh, and exceptionally clean, making it a perfect natural swimming hole. Photography: Known as one of the most "Instagrammable" spots in North Bali, the falls feature thin, veil-like cascades of water flowing down a lush, green rock face. The wooden bridge leading to the falls also serves as a perfect photo backdrop. Jungle Trekking: To reach the waterfall, you’ll enjoy a short but scenic trek down a series of bamboo and dirt steps. It’s a great way to experience Bali's tropical flora and breathe in the fresh mountain air.

Jatiluwih Green Land
At Jatiluwih Rice Terrace, a UNESCO World Heritage site, tourists can immerse themselves in one of the most expansive and authentic cultural landscapes in Bali. Here is a description of what visitors can do: Trekking and Nature Walks: Explore the vast area via well-maintained pathways. There are several routes ranging from short 30-minute strolls to 3-hour treks that take you deep into the heart of the emerald-green fields. Cycling Tours: For those who want to cover more ground, renting an electric bike or joining a guided cycling tour is a popular way to navigate the hilly terrain and enjoy the fresh mountain air. Learn about the "Subak" System: Observe the ancient and sophisticated traditional irrigation system firsthand. It is a living manifestation of the Tri Hita Karana philosophy, which balances the relationship between humans, nature, and the divine. Photography: With Mount Batukaru as a dramatic backdrop

North Bali Floating Lake temple and Rice Terrace UNESCO Site: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Ubud.
How much does North Bali Floating Lake temple and Rice Terrace UNESCO Site cost?
+
Prices start at $31 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 North Bali Floating Lake temple and Rice Terrace UNESCO Site take?
+
Plan for about 10 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 North Bali Floating Lake temple and Rice Terrace UNESCO Site worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 66 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 3 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 North Bali Floating Lake temple and Rice Terrace UNESCO Site?
+
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 North Bali Floating Lake temple and Rice Terrace UNESCO Site suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 10-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book North Bali Floating Lake temple and Rice Terrace UNESCO Site?
+
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 10-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does North Bali Floating Lake temple and Rice Terrace UNESCO Site 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 North Bali Floating Lake temple and Rice Terrace UNESCO Site?
+
Included: Private transportation; Bottled water; Government fees; In-vehicle air conditioning; and Surcharges on fuel. Not included: Lunch; and Gratuities. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Does North Bali Floating Lake temple and Rice Terrace UNESCO Site include hotel pickup?
+
Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 2403 listed pickup locations in and around Ubud. Be ready about 30 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.
What languages is North Bali Floating Lake temple and Rice Terrace UNESCO Site 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 North Bali Floating Lake temple and Rice Terrace UNESCO Site?
+
