Your private driver/guide collects you from your hotel, apartment, or villa in the morning and you travel through Bali’s central highlands to your first stop, Ulun Danu Beratan Temple, which seems to float on the Lake Beratan crater lake.

Next, head through the lush countryside to Jatiluwih, an area recognized by UNESCO for its spectacularly beautiful rice terraces, where organic rice still flourishes. If you’ve booked the tour with lunch, you’ll enjoy an expansive buffet here, overlooking the arena of rice fields.

Go deeper into Balinese culture on your third stop, the less-visited Taman Ayun Temple which is a Paibon/Pedarman Temple of the King of Mengwi to worship the ancestral spirits of the kings, which is realized by the construction of a Paibon building, as well as meru-meru buildings for worship and prayer.

Wrap up your day with an Indian Ocean sunset at Tanah Lot Temple, balanced on lava rock amid the ocean waves. Finally, your driver drops you home
