    The Best Driver in Bali!

    Putu was great, couldn’t have had a better guide. We did the Ubud day tour plus airport transfers and everything was flawless. Can’t say enough about Putu, from asking him to take photos to making extra stops he did everything with a smile. Plus he has a passion for sharing the Balinese culture with others. Definitely the best choice when looking for a guide/driver in Bali.

    Response from the operator: Hi Geo, Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We're thrilled to hear that you had such a great experience with Putu on your Ubud day tour and airport transfers. It’s fantastic to know that his passion for Balinese culture and his willingness to accommodate your requests made your trip memorable. Your kind words truly reflect his dedication to providing exceptional service. We appreciate your recommendation and hope to welcome you back to Bali for more unforgettable experiences! Safe travels! Warm regards, Kadek

    Wayan make our day in Ubud.

    Nice day in Ubud lead by Wayan. He an incredible guide! He was very friendly and knowledgeable and was great to have a conversation with. He asked us our preferences every step of the way and took us to places that we loved. He asked us if we wanted breakfast and dropped us off at the most amazing cafe on the way to Ubud where we enjoyed an incredible meal. He took us to the Monkey Forest, the markets in Ubud and the incredible Rice Terraces where we had the most delicious lunch overlooking the terraces. What an experience! He answered all of our many questions and had some very interesting stories. While we were driving we were talking about the different fruits in Bali and I mentioned that I had never tried a Mangosteen. When my partner and I came out from our visit around the markets, Wayan had kindly bought us a bag of Mangosteens to try. It was so thoughtful of him. Wayan is an amazing guide if you are looking for a tour around Bali. He had a beautiful air conditioned van and readily gave you plenty of space to go and do your own your own thing. Highly recommended tour if you are ever in Bali!

    Response from the operator: Hi Orinjunior, Thank you for your excellent review, its not surprise to hear that wayan is did great job, Wayan is one of our best driver, every times he always doing excellent job, The safety and satisfaction is our priority, See you next time and thank you for the recommendation. Regards, Kadek

    Ubud Day Tour - Top Things to do in Ubud + Local Ubud Guide: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Ubud.

    How much does Ubud Day Tour - Top Things to do in Ubud + Local Ubud Guide cost?

    +

    Prices start at $13 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 Ubud Day Tour - Top Things to do in Ubud + Local Ubud Guide 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 Ubud Day Tour - Top Things to do in Ubud + Local Ubud Guide worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 71 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 8 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 Ubud Day Tour - Top Things to do in Ubud + Local Ubud Guide?

    +

    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 Ubud Day Tour - Top Things to do in Ubud + Local Ubud Guide 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 Ubud Day Tour - Top Things to do in Ubud + Local Ubud Guide?

    +

    Around 3 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 Ubud Day Tour - Top Things to do in Ubud + Local Ubud Guide 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.
