When your personal driver picks you up at your hotel, get comfortable in your private, air-conditioned minivan and set off for a full-day of sightseeing. Your private guide will introduce you to several cultural heritage sites, starting with a visit to Tanah Lot, a 16th-century temple located about 45 minutes from southern Bali.
Discover the wonders of this sea temple, one of several structures perched along a chain of rock islands along Bali’s southwestern coastline. Learn about Hindu influences and Balinese mythology en route to Taman Ayun, a royal family temple dating back to the Mengwi Kingdom.
From here you’re driven another hour to Mt Batur (Kintamani Volcano) for a look at the caldera during time allotted for having lunch. Afterward, continue on to Tirta Empul, a traditional Balinese water temple built around a holy spring. Discover how the Balinese believe its sacred waters hold healing powers.
Your full-day itinerary concludes with visits to the art villages outside Ubud, including Tohpati, Celuk, Batuan and Mas. Browse for batik, gold and silver, paintings and woodcarvings before drop-off at your hotel.
