The Best Bali Drivers in Indonesia
A friend of ours recommended us to get in touch with Dewa for our trip in Bali to drive us around. We communicated with him using Whatsapp before leaving to talk about timing and places to see. I had some ideas of what I wanted to see and he was very helpful to make some recommendations. Originally, I had planned for 2 nights in Ubud and 3 nights Seminyak; and Dewa helped me realize that it would be better to change it to 3 nights Ubud and 2 nights Seminyak. in order to see the sites. Dewa offered to pick us up from the airport to Ubud for $35 during the day or $40 at night. But we already had pick up arrangements. Since Dewa was unavailable the first day of touring, he arranged for a friend, Wayan Malang to give us a tour. Wayan took us to see Tirta Empul, Permulan Coffee Plantation, and Tegenungan Waterfall. Originally, we planned only a half day; but we took longer than expected Tegalalang rice terraces and Wayan was flexible to make it a full day. The next day, Dewa gave us a half day tour and took us to Goah Gojah, Angel Park, and then to Ubud Central. He was also flexible with the schedule. The following day he drove us to Seminyak which took a couple of hours and the day after he took us to Nusa Dua Beach and we ate lunch at Nusa at the Bali Collection. On our last day, Dewa drove us to the airport. Both Wayan and Dewa were friendly, flexible, great drivers and tour guides. They have been drivers in Bali for a long time and know most everything that you would want to know about Bali. I highly recommend Dewa if you are planning to visit Bali. Just be prepared for lots of traffic in Ubud and Seminyak. Also December/January is the rainy season and they had umbrellas available for us to use.

Why this scores 67
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Unique Cleansing Ceremony with Locals: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Ubud.
How much does Unique Cleansing Ceremony with Locals cost?
+
Prices start at $41 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 Unique Cleansing Ceremony with Locals 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 Unique Cleansing Ceremony with Locals worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 67 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 6 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 Unique Cleansing Ceremony with Locals?
+
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 Unique Cleansing Ceremony with Locals 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 Unique Cleansing Ceremony with Locals?
+
Around 2 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 Unique Cleansing Ceremony with Locals 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 Unique Cleansing Ceremony with Locals?
+
Included: Private transportation; Bottled water; In-vehicle air conditioning; Surcharges on fuel; and Parking fees. Not included: All entrance fee on any attractions. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Does Unique Cleansing Ceremony with Locals include hotel pickup?
+
Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 1220 listed pickup locations in and around Ubud. Be ready about 15 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.
What languages is Unique Cleansing Ceremony with Locals 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 Unique Cleansing Ceremony with Locals?
+
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.

+
