Description
Spend a full day exploring the most iconic and scenic spots in East Bali on this friendly, easygoing tour. We start early with a hotel pickup around 04:00–04:30 AM so you can reach Lempuyang Temple before the crowds and enjoy the cool morning air. Known for its famous "Gates of Heaven" view framing Mount Agung, this temple is one of Bali’s most photographed and spiritually important sites. From there, you’ll continue to Tirta Gangga Water Palace, a beautiful former royal palace filled with spring-fed pools, fountains, and elegant statues that feel almost like a peaceful open-air garden museum.
After soaking in the calm atmosphere at Tirta Gangga, we’ll take a relaxed break for lunch at a local restaurant, where you can taste Balinese or Indonesian dishes while enjoying the scenery. The journey then continues to Taman Ujung Water Palace, another royal heritage site with wide gardens, reflective ponds, and sweeping views over the ocean and hills. It’s a fantastic place for slow walks, photos, and simply enjoying the breeze. To wrap up the day, we head to Virgin Beach, a quieter white-sand bay on the east coast where you can unwind, swim, or just relax under a beach umbrella before heading back to your hotel.
This East Bali Day Tour is designed to give you a complete experience in one day: culture, history, nature, and beach time all in one easy package. With a private car and friendly driver-guide, you can move at a comfortable pace and stop for photos whenever you like. Your driver will happily help you capture your best moments at the Gates of Heaven, around the water palaces, and by the sea. It’s a great choice for couples, friends, or families who want a hassle-free way to see some of Bali’s most beautiful spots without worrying about navigation, parking, or timing—just relax, enjoy the views, and create memories from sunrise to sunset.
