Here are a few hidden gems in East Bali that you can visit on a private tour with us.

1. Pura Besakih: The Majestic Mother Temple

Nestled on the slopes of Mount Agung, Pura Besakih is the largest and holiest temple complex in Bali. Its magnificent views and grand architecture will leave you in awe. Many tourists find it challenging to get here, but with our local drivers, you'll arrive comfortably and safely, and we can even share fascinating insights into the temple's history and culture.

2. Taman Ujung & Tirta Gangga: Forgotten Royal Beauty

Want to experience the ambiance of ancient Balinese royalty? Taman Ujung and Tirta Gangga are the perfect places. Taman Ujung, once a royal water palace, offers stunning architecture with spectacular ocean views. Not far away, Tirta Gangga, which means "Water from the Ganges," is a tranquil water palace with beautiful koi ponds and intricate statues. Both places are perfect for breathtaking photos.

3. Tukad Cepung Waterfall: A Hidden Gem Inside a Cave

If you're looking for an adventure, Tukad Cepung is an excellent choice. Unlike other waterfalls, it's hidden inside a cave, creating a dramatic view as sunlight streams through the opening above. The journey here can be tricky without local knowledge, but our drivers know the best time to visit to avoid crowds and get the most magical view.

4. Tenganan Pegeringsingan Village: A Window to Ancient Culture

For an authentic cultural experience, visit Tenganan, a traditional Bali Aga village of the island's original inhabitants. Here, you can see local crafts, like the famous double-ikat weaving, and get a feel for a way of life that is still deeply rooted in tradition. We will take you to interact directly with the locals, giving you an experience you won't find on a typical tourist trail.
