1.Best of Bali 3-Day Packaged Tour

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 503 reviews · from $179Our pick

This private three-day Bali tour from Ubud pairs a driver-guide such as Komang, Dudy, Gusde, or Surya with temples, five waterfalls, rice terraces, a jungle swing, and Tanah Lot sunset. Hotel pickup, three lunches, admission fees, and bottled water are included, but accommodation is not.

“We had only one week to visit as much as we can and booking this service was the best thing to do. Our driver Gusde was professional and knowledgeable. He had a very interesting itinerary already waiting for us! We only needed to get in the car and enjoy the ride with great music he played! We didn’t have to be worry about pictures as he took care of them. Those were one of the best pictures anyone has taken of us! We recommend him to anyone who is looking to visit important landmarks and learn about history and Bali’s culture in just a few days.”
