Itinerary
First visit Tibumana Waterfall is one of Bali’s best-kept secrets, located in a peaceful jungle setting near Ubud. Unlike the more crowded waterfalls, Tibumana offers a calm, relaxing atmosphere surrounded by lush greenery and the soothing sound of falling water. A short walk through palm-lined paths and small streams will lead you to this beautiful natural pool — perfect for a refreshing swim or simply relaxing by the water.
Continue the trip to Kanto Lampo Waterfall is a stunning, photogenic cascade located in a lush canyon in Gianyar, Bali, take around 10 minutes drive from Tibumana Waterfall. Unlike vertical falls, Kanto Lampo flows down a series of natural rock steps, creating a unique and dramatic water display that looks like a staircase made by nature. It's easily accessible with a short walk down from the parking area, making it perfect for all ages. The shallow pool and refreshing spray make it a fun and safe place to cool off, while the rock formations offer the perfect backdrop for Instagram-worthy photos.
Next step into a secret canyon and discover one of Bali’s most magical spots. At Tukad Cepung, sunlight shines through the cave roof, creating stunning light rays that feel straight out of a dream. Walk through the jungle, wade through a shallow stream, and arrive at a place where nature and light create pure magic.
After exlore waterfalls next we will stop for lunch in local restourant
Continue the journey to A sacred water temple where locals perform a purification ritual by moving from spout to spout in crystal-clear springs. Visitors may join the ritual with proper sarong attire and guidance, or simply observe the prayerful atmosphere and intricate temple carvings.

Really great tour with Ari. He picked us up early morning for the Ubud half day tour, allowing us to avoid the crowds. We visited the rice terraces, coffee plantation, temple and waterfall. He was extremely knowledgeable about Balinese life, religion & culture, as he was a local to the area. We learnt a lot and he had a great sense of humour too! Cheers Ari you legend.
Very good activities; the explanations from the guide, Mr. Konol, are excellent and he knows his country perfectly. It is very clear and well explained, and really not expensive. I recommend it 100%
We had the best time with Wayan! He let us stay at each place and look around, while giving us knowledge about Bali and where we were stopping! Would recommend to anyone! Best tour yet.
Our guide, Dekwan, was great. He took us to Bali’s most beautiful waterfalls and rice patties. He was a perfect guide with just the right amount of energy and explantations. Would give him a five star and tour again with him. .
We had the most amazing time! Jeiy, our guide, was the best thing we could ask for - friendly, very knowledgeable and took the most incredible photos! We went to the coffee plantation, Monkey Forrest, rice terraces, waterfalls, temples, you name it! Would definitely recommend, this was an unforgettable experience.
Interesting tour, the guide was very knowledgeable and we had a good time. The rice fields were amazing and we did a fun zip line. Stop at a coffee plantation we also interesting and of course the fascinating temple
The activities make for an unforgettable adventure. Uncle Wayan (my guide today) makes great effort to prepare you properly and to make you comfortable for the journey. Any questions i had were happily answered making the drive very interesting. Uncle Wayan showed a lot of flexibility to try to include activities that were new for me and to make the most out of my time on this beautiful island.
We had an amazing day out with our driver Kadek Jarot. He took lots of photos for us and carried our bags when we were swimming in the waterfalls. The trip has been amazing and we saw so many different places in a whole day. I would definitely recommend!

Wayan was an exceptional guide — respectful, polite, knowledgeable, and kind. He made our day fun and truly special, sharing insights about his culture and going above and beyond to make us feel comfortable. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience!
