The Experience
Before You Go
Start early to avoid traffic
Begin before 8 AM to reduce travel time to inland sights like Ubud or Kintamani and maximize daylight at key stops.
Carry small change for offerings and toilets
Many temples and roadside stalls accept cash only; small rupiah notes are handy for donations and restroom fees.
Dress and behave respectfully at temples
Bring a sarong or wear clothing that covers shoulders and knees, and follow guide instructions about where to enter and photograph.
Plan flexibility for wet-season showers
Allow buffer time in wet months (Nov–Mar) for sudden rain and slower roads; a flexible itinerary helps keep the day enjoyable.
