Bali Cultural and Nature Tour: Besakih Temple, Volcano View, Tirta Empul & Rice Terraces

Get ready for one of Bali’s most unforgettable day trips — a perfect mix of temples, culture, and breathtaking nature. This private tour takes you through the island’s spiritual heart and scenic highlands, combining sacred sites, mountain views, and iconic rice terraces that you’ve probably seen in every Bali travel photo.

Your day starts with a visit to Besakih Temple, known as Bali’s “Mother Temple.” It’s the island’s largest and most important Hindu temple, beautifully set on the slopes of Mount Agung. You’ll feel the strong spiritual energy here as locals come to pray and make offerings.

From there, your journey continues to Kintamani, where you’ll stop at Penelokan Village for a stunning panoramic view of Mount Batur and its lake. On a clear day, the sight is absolutely breathtaking — perfect for photos and a relaxing break in the cool mountain air.

Next, head to Tirta Empul Temple, one of Bali’s most sacred water temples. Here, crystal-clear spring water flows into stone pools used for holy purification rituals. You’ll see locals performing the melukat cleansing ceremony — and if you like, you can even join the experience for a truly spiritual moment.

Before heading back, enjoy a visit to Tegalalang Rice Terrace, one of Bali’s most famous postcard views. The terraced landscape is pure magic — lush green layers that stretch across the hills. You can stroll along the narrow paths, take photos on the swing, or just relax with a coconut overlooking the valley.

This tour blends everything that makes Bali special — spirituality, natural beauty, and local life — all in one easy and unforgettable day.
