Ubud Trips & Tours

Uncover the soul of Bali and fill your days with immense culture and beauty.
Surrounded by verdant rice terraces and the ever-present tinkle of traditional gamelan music, Ubud has long been the island's cultural and spiritual heart. Artisanal markets, traditional Kecak dance performances and ornate temples paint a vivid tableau of Balinese life, and visitors are welcomed into a world of mindful yoga retreats, beautiful restaurants, and the famous - and very enchanting - Sacred Monkey Forest where the macaques live. Beyond the streets, Ubud unfolds into a landscape of iridescent-green rice fields dotted with conical-hatted workers. Hike or bike across them, stopping at the many ancient temples, before heading back to town to eat in an organic café by the river, catch a traditional dance performance, or to try your hand at batik, wood carving or basketry.
