Excellent trip planner

You will be in the best hands! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
We had an absolutely wonderful experience with Kadek and his brother Komang, and we couldn’t recommend them highly enough! We spent an entire day travelling from Ubud to Pemuteran with Kadek, and the journey was so much more than simply getting from one place to another. He took us to beautiful and interesting stops along the way and was incredibly helpful wherever we went. Kadek was always attentive, friendly, patient, and happy to assist us with anything we needed. What made the trip truly special was how much he shared with us about Balinese culture, traditions, history, and the places we were passing through. His explanations gave us a much deeper appreciation of Bali and made the journey feel personal and meaningful rather than just a sightseeing trip. After our time with Kadek, his brother Komang also safely drove us from Pemuteran to Sanur. We felt completely comfortable and safe with both of them throughout our travels. Even after the trip was over, Kadek went the extra mile and checked in with us to make sure we had arrived safely. That small gesture really showed how genuinely caring and thoughtful he is. Kadek and Komang are not just excellent drivers — they are warm, trustworthy, knowledgeable, and genuinely wonderful people. They made our journey through Bali unforgettable, and we are incredibly grateful for their kindness and hospitality. If you are looking for a driver in Bali, we would wholeheartedly recommend Kadek and Komang. You will be in the best hands! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Good trip with Kadek Badil
We had an amazing experience with our private driver in Bali. He was always punctual, professional, friendly, and made us feel safe throughout the entire trip. His knowledge of the island helped us discover beautiful places, local culture, and hidden gems that we would never have found on our own. He was patient, flexible with our schedule, and always willing to adapt the itinerary to our preferences. The vehicle was clean, comfortable, and well maintained. Thanks to him, our Bali vacation was truly unforgettable. We highly recommend his services to anyone looking for a reliable, trustworthy, and kind private driver in Bali. Thank you for making our trip so special! Stéphanie and Simon Kanada

Why this scores 75
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Private Ubud Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Ubud.
How much does Private Ubud Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $59 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 Private Ubud Tour take?
+
Plan for about 8 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 Private Ubud Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 75 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 31 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 Private Ubud 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 Private Ubud Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private Ubud 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 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Ubud 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.
What is included in Private Ubud Tour?
+
Included: Ticket - Tegenungan Waterfall; Bottled water; Ticket - Tegalalang Rice Terrace; Sarong for temple; and Ticket - Tirta Empul. Not included: Meals; Gratuities; and Personale. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Does Private Ubud Tour include hotel pickup?
+
Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 4144 listed pickup locations in and around Ubud. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.
What languages is Private Ubud Tour 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 Private Ubud Tour?
+
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.
Is Private Ubud Tour wheelchair or stroller accessible?
+
The operator notes: Specialized infant seats are available. If accessibility is critical, contact the operator after booking to confirm arrangements for your date.
What happens to Private Ubud Tour 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.
