You arrive into a humid Balinese morning: rice terraces slope away in luminous greens, temple roofs puncture the mist, and a narrow road hums with scooters and the occasional procession. Over three days this private tour stitches together Ubud’s monkey-filled forest paths, the carved steps of Tegalalang, the ritual pools at Tirta Empul, highland lakes and gates in Bedugul, and a day of motorized fun—ATV routes and Ayung River whitewater.
