One of Bali’s iconic temples that sits on the lake of Beratan, the Ulun Danu Beratan temple is located on the highlands of the famous Bedugul regency in north Bali. Because of the temple’s location on top of a lake, the temple itself is actually used for offering ceremonies for the goddess of water, lakes and rivers, known as Dewi Danu. Therefore, Lake Beratan is one of the important lakes in Bali in terms of irrigation, especially in the rice fields and plantations. Things to do here are a paddle boat ride, a guided tour on a canoe, and sightseeing the mountain view.
Another Bali’s iconic temple makes it in the UNESCO World Heritage list in 2002 is the Taman Ayun Royal Temple. The temple itself was built by the former King of Mengwi regency in 1634 AD. Surrounded the temple is covered with beautiful gardens and ponds. Things to do at the temple includes a visit to historical sites and museums, a spiritual seeking enthusiasts, and fun outdoor sightseeing and adventure.
A final stop at Tanah Lot will surely take your energy back after long hours on the road. Tanah Lot is one of the iconic temples for Balinese Hindus and it is located on a large rock off the coast. What’s unique about this temple is there’s a curved cliff shape like a bridge that connects the temple with the mainland. Underneath, there is a small cave where several sea snakes are placed. Thus, these are holy snakes assigned as the guardian of the temple. Things to do includes a spiritual journey, enjoying the beach and sunset view.
best place for see rice terrace and how to people on Bali for making a process rice
Great tour with Mr. Merry ! He went to the temples with us and to the rice fields and explained everything. Speaks very good english. Always available to take us some photos. Carismatic and enthusiastic person! Had a lovely day with Mr. Merry. Highly recommended.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Our driver was absolutely top tier! Sopyan was professional, courteous and clearly a very experienced driver. We felt safe and comfortable with Sopyan throughout the entire day. We spent the whole day exploring Bali together, visiting beautiful temples, stunning rice terraces and taking in Tanah Lot sunset. What we loved most was that nothing ever felt rushed. Sopyan was patient, flexible and made the whole day so enjoyable. We would highly recommend Sopyan to anyone looking for a safe, professional and knowledgeable driver. Sopyan helped make our day in Bali truly memorable! 🌴✨
Everything was perfect. We rate Agong, our guide and the overall experience as perfect 10.
We had an amazing time exploring Ubud. Johnny was the best, his local knowledge made the trip even more special. We got see everything we wanted and more! I would highly recommend Johnny and Ubud to everyone travelling to Bali.
Had a great trip with Yudi as my driver and guide. Safe driving, clear instructions and lots of information about Bali life.
Had a great day, albeit in the rain. Saw the sights that we wanted to see at a relaxed pace and had nice lunch next to the rice fields. Bawa was knowledgeable and looked after us all day.
Ulun Danu Beratan Temple Completely in love with this place 🤍 It’s so peaceful and scenic that you can easily spend a lot of time here. The temple, lake, and surrounding mountains create a stunning view. Truly feels like Bali’s most peaceful postcard 📸 A must-visit spot in Bali.
Great experience, beautiful temple. Bawa was an excellent driver and guide. The roads were not great and distance to the temple from our hotel was a long distance but Bawa made it easier with his knowledge of the area and used short cuts to safe us some time. The ride was comfortable and clean.
Wira is an awesome driver and guide! My partner and I had the best day exploring Bali. Wira had amazing knowledge and recommendations for food and leisure. He also showed us his beautiful home which was just the most lovely authentic bali experience. Would hire him again in a heart beat. An amazing driver and experience..thank you so much!
Yudi was a great guide. Crazy morning traffic in Denpasar. Helped with photos. Told alot obout life and culture in Bali. Got us to rice fields in mountains despite rain. Found his way to beautiful temple on lake and explained story of it. Stopped by coffee & mangosteen farm and shop to sample/ buy, a special request. Got us home quickly and passed by shopping areas we will go to another day. Great trip.
We had a great trip with Johnny to the UNESCO sites of Bali! He is patient, knowledgeable, interesting to talk to, and a great driver! If you choose a trip with him you'll be in great hands!
Yudi Bali was very knowledgeable on the questions on what we asked. Excellent photographer and video. The pick up at the hotel - he was early what was great. Would recommend to book again and recommend to ask for Yudi
We had a wonderful day, in the company of Mr. Bawa, who was our incredibly polite and very sweet guide on the tour. The different temples on the tour were beautiful in their own way and the walk through the rice fields was very breathtaking. We would highly recommend this tour.
Beautiful places and a very knowledgeable driver who explained life and the beautiful things in Bali to us. Thank you Wira.
Wira was amazing! So informative on local culture, taught us some Balinese and was even a fantastic photographer. Honestly the best tour we have had in our 3 trips to Bali!
The tour is an amazing adventure visiting four amazing places including UNESCO World Heritage sites: Taman Ayun Temple, Ulan Danu Temple, Tanah Lot Temple, Jatiluwih Rice Terrace Our guide and driver, Septa, did an excellent job on a long days adventure which started in Nusa Dua. It made for a long day - 12 hours of touring. But the water temples, the royal temple and the rice terraces are incredible. The only disappointment was dining at Jatiluwih Resto overlooking the rice terraces. The food was overpriced as you would expect at a tourist location. The view was very nice, but the food was terrible - bland, barely warm dreck - by far the worst meal we had in Bali. Find another place to dine. Even that meal could not diminish the incredible sights on this tour. You’ll not be disappointed.
This was such an amazing experience. We had a group of 11 people and our guides kept us together, well educated, and on time without feeling rushed throughout the entire day. You can pack so much into this day seeing many sites that if you did on your own, you might hit 2 and be done as the traffic is such an issue, but not with our guides, they knew of some back roads that made it even more fun as we saw small towns with even narrower streets than what you typically see in Bali! I just can’t say enough good things about our guide, Eko. We feel like we got to know him as part of our family. He is such a happy person, it just comes out everywhere in his smile and laughter. He is kind and humble and taught us so much about the Hindu faith and community. We have been truly blessed to have crossed paths with this amazing human being and for him to share his island with us, we are forever grateful. I’m not sure if you can request him as your guide, if you can, ask for Eko.
Our guide, Bawa, did a great job escorting us to a number of major temples in Bali. He was very gracious with his time and did a good job of explaining the sights we were seeing. Beratan Temple was a highlight and should be a must on any visit to Bali. Bawa, thank you so much for your time.
I highly recommend Mr Bawa, he is very professional, very kind and helpful. we had a pleasant time in his company, he knew how to put us at ease and for that we thank him. And as they say here Suksma
We had an amazing day with our guide Parila. He explained us everything in English and all was really clear. He knows so many things about Bali and he loved sharing with us. Really good driver too. He took a lot of pictures of us, we appreciated. Do not hesitate and ask for Parila
We had a great day with our driver John. We visited 3 watertempels and made beautiful pictures. John explained everything and was a fantastic tour guide.
Excellent trip, the driver was very friendly and provide a lot of informations about the two places we visit and he help us building memories by taking beautiful photos with us. Thank you! Great experience for us.
The three temples and rice field were excellent. If you want drivers to take you from location to location with little or no commentary this is the tour for you. Our excellent drivers Yuda and Madu wera were professional, patient, and answered all questions. Main tour operator could improve on communication with guests beforehand.
Dewa was my driver and my tour guide. He safely picked me up and dropped me off. He is very talkative during the ride and when visiting the sights. He speaks English and explains anything you want to know very well. The attached pictures speak for themselves I guess, so feel free to check them out. I’d recommend this trip. It was fun.
The tour schedule and route is perfect for a day to explore some of the main temples of Bali. But what made our tour to an amazing experience was Tole, our driver & guide. His knowledge about the island, culture, history is impressive. We really enjoyed the drive with him, he is an experienced driver too. His humor made the day just much better. Best man, we are happy to met him and hope to see him again in the future.
Beautiful sights! Had a wonderful day and my driver Ricky was so sweet and made some great recommendations for food and silver jewellery, as well as taking wicked videos and pictures for me
YUDI IS AN EXCELLENT DRIVER/GUIDE! HE IS PATIENT FRIENDLY INFORMATIVE! IT WAS SUCH A PLEASURE TO HAVE HIM AS OUR DRIVER. AND GUIDE TO EXPLIRE BALI!
Bawa was an excellent driver. He got us to our locations safely and ahead of schedule. Despite the chaos of scooters and dogs on the road, Bawa took his time and made it safe for us. He took us to our locations and brought to a great restaurant for lunch. Highly recommended!
It was Excellent. I would recommend everyone to do this Tour. A special thanks to the driver Ricky. He was patient, helpful, polite, very informed about the locations and fun to travel with. Amazing and this tour made our Bali trip memorable. As a frequent traveller around the world, Great Tour. Worth all the money. Luc.T
The Ulun Danu Temple is an extraordinary location, both in terms of its spiritual significance and its natural splendor. It offers a peaceful and attractive backdrop because to its location beside Lake Bratan in Bali, where it can be found. The architecture of the temple is not only beautiful but also historically significant, which reflects the cultural history of Bali.
Amazing service. Patient and very friendly. Highly recommend. Ladies, he can also take very nice pictures of you along with the scenes :)
Bawa was our driver and he very kind and friendly. Bawa explained a lot of things to us about Bali as it was our first time visiting Bali. It’s worth mentioning that he was very attentive in taking the photos (good photographer) and explaining about the temples. We really had an amazing time and appreciate the great Bawa’s guidance.
We had such an amazing time with Dilla as our driver. He did an amazing job of showing us the area and even went in depth of the history of the areas we were touring. We had an amazing time and would recommend it to anyone.
We travelled here from Nusa Dua about 2.5hrs drive, it was one of a number of places we visited so the journey seemed worth it. If you are going to travel this distance make sure you have some other places to visit as it’s not worth the journey for this alone. It’s 30k to enter and initially its looks really cool, there are a number of odd statues in place which spoils the locations - dinosaur and large pink fish spring to, I’ve not idea why such naff things have been added. We were lucky to be able to walk around and take photos but apparently it can get really busy and a number of hours queuing may be required to take photos. It’s OK to visit just make sure you are going to other places in the same day to make it worth while.
Ricky was great, always giving me the time and space if i needed it. He also recommended when to nap in the car ;). He told me about the local traditions and was very friendly over all.
Great places and knowledgeable guide Temples wete really breathtaking. Would certainly go again. Food in resturant was ok but clean An enjouable day
Great trip which combines a multitude of beautiful places. Our tour guide Yoga was very helpful throughout and gave us plenty of time to explore by ourselves, whilst also providing lots of information about the various sites we visited.
Ms. Merry was amazing, very friendly informative, and spoke good English. He also had a brand new car, which was a great thing for the air conditioning. We would recommend him 100% to everyone. Please ask for MISTER MERRY. We are so grateful to have gotten such an amazing tour guide.
It was a great day visiting temples, eating amazing Indonesian food and window shopping. Our driver Nova was great, both at the wheel and with general questions. He is also a fantastic photographer who did not lose patience as we loved getting clicked often
A great trip. Yogik was our driver and he’s knowledgeable and has lots of stories on Bali history and Balinese kingdom.
Hello . I liked so much. All enjoy. Thanks for trip. We saw a lot of fish and our tour guide was so friendly and helpful
I booked rukmana tours directly by contacting them on whatsapp, most day tours start by 8 or 9 am and i wanted to go by 10 am. This was easily possible by doing the private tour. I told the places i wanted to visit and the details of the hotel where i was staying & promptly my pick/up was arranged. John was the driver assigned to me for the day. He was at my hotel before time and then we went ahead with our tour. Throughout the tour i was able to rest as well as chat up with him and get a better idea about the places we were visiting. We discussed about the various common things in indian & balinese culture. I felt safe & comfortable through the day in john's company. The places visited were great too. I recommend supporting the tours & tour drivers by booking more tours with them.
We had a great day, the temples are really beautiful. And the day was even better thanks to our guide Adi. He is really very nice, always smiling and he always gives us the information we need. In addition, the journeys are pleasant, he drove very well and constantly watches over the comfort of his passengers. In short, it was really perfect ! Thank you !
We spend amazing day thanks to John- our driver! We visited rice tarrace, temple and waterfall. Everything without pressure and in great atmosphere. John told us about the Temple, he was very helpful and nice(we stopped several times just to take a photo of beautiful view and nature). Trip was great! Highly recommend.
We booked our travel with makemytrip. The tour was assigned to rukmana Bali tours. From rukmana, mr. bawa was assigned to us. Mr. Bawa is a very good guide, driver and photographer. He was very warm and very helpful.
Phenomenal trip through Balinese history and culture with Adi. Temples outstanding and Adi strove to make this a first class experience. Would go again!
Had a great time visiting Bali’s most iconic temples with my tour guide Yogik Astra! He did everything to make sure I had the best day, even held my umbrella when it was pouring with rain so I could take photos and got totally soaked through in the process! Thanks so much. Was a fun and relaxed day :)
The temples themselves were beautiful but our “guide” was simply a driver with no English skills. I had checked off for the tour to be in English but it was a very quiet trip because of the language barrier. Also, we were supposed to have WIFI which we did not. It would have been helpful to use the WIFI to get a little background information about each temple since the driver couldn’t tell us anything
Had an great experience of day one Bali tour. Thanks to our driver/guide Mr Bawa. Not only he is honest, friendly but also has a very calm nature. He helped us capture many shots with patience. Thanks again to Rukmani tours Bali and Mr Bawa for this amazing experience. Highly recommended!! 😊😊
Yogik was the best driver and tour guide. He has great English and knew so much history about the places we were visiting. He was very kind and respectful. I would highly recommend him to anyone who wants to do temple tours in Bali. We had such a lovely afternoon with him. He also knows the best places for photos!
