Jeling Amazing Tour Guide
We had an amazing experience with Jeling as our driver in Bali! From the start, his excellent English communication made everything smooth and stress-free. He was incredibly accommodating, always ensuring that our itinerary suited our preferences, and he took us to some truly stunning places that gave us a genuine feel for Bali. Jeling’s punctuality was impeccable—he was always on time, which made our trips relaxed and enjoyable. We felt very safe with him behind the wheel, as he navigated the roads with care and professionalism. One of the highlights was the variety of packages he offered, allowing us to customize our journey and see both popular attractions and hidden gems. His local knowledge and thoughtful suggestions really enhanced our experience. What’s more, his services were very reasonably priced, offering fantastic value for the quality of the experience. We highly recommend Jeling to anyone visiting Bali and looking for a reliable, friendly, and knowledgeable driver. We will definitely book with him again on our next trip. Zeenat and Umar New Zealand

Excellent Tour with an Excellent Tour Guide
Our tour guide, Yoga, was friendly and chatty. He was helpful, charismatic, and genuine throughout the entire trip. He lent my wife his slipper when we were walking on the rocks at the waterfall so that it could protect her feet. He was super sweet and is a wonderful tour guide. Overall, the trip was concise and took the right amount of time to explore the various venues in the itinerary. It is a must-have tour in your itinerary when travelling in Bali :)

Ubud Temples, Waterfalls, Rice Terraces & Balinese Culture: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Jimbaran.
How much does Ubud Temples, Waterfalls, Rice Terraces & Balinese Culture cost?
+
Prices start at $35 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Jimbaran usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Ubud Temples, Waterfalls, Rice Terraces & Balinese Culture 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 Jimbaran is not rushed.
Is Ubud Temples, Waterfalls, Rice Terraces & Balinese Culture worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 77 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 16 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Jimbaran, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Ubud Temples, Waterfalls, Rice Terraces & Balinese Culture?
+
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 Temples, Waterfalls, Rice Terraces & Balinese Culture 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 Ubud Temples, Waterfalls, Rice Terraces & Balinese Culture?
+
Around 6 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 Jimbaran 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 Jimbaran and add a light layer if any part of the 10-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Ubud Temples, Waterfalls, Rice Terraces & Balinese Culture 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 Jimbaran 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 Jimbaran?
+
On Outty we rank every Jimbaran experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Best of Ubud Private and All-Inclusive 1-Day Tour, Mount Batur Sunrise Trekking Private All Inclusive, Bali Shore Excursion from Benoa Port – All-Inclusive Private Tour. 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 Jimbaran?
+
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 Jimbaran?
+
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.
