Ultimate Bali Private Insta Tour: Lempuyang, Tegalalang & Tukad Cepung
A carefully timed half-day private tour that pairs Bali’s most photogenic temples, waterfalls and rice terraces with a local driver-guide. Expect sunrise framing at Lempuyang, light shafts at Tukad Cepung and layered green views at Tegallalang.
The Experience
Before You Go
Start before sunrise
Lempuyang‘s Gates of Heaven and Mount Agung are best photographed at first light — expect an early pickup to beat the crowds.
Temple dress code
Carry a sarong or scarf for temple visits and be prepared to cover shoulders and knees; some sites provide rentals but cash is handy.
Bring small bills
Many entry points and local warungs accept only cash for parking, entrance fees, and tips.
Watch footing at waterfalls
Tukad Cepung involves stepping on wet rocks and uneven forest paths — closed-toe shoes with grip reduce slips.
Local Knowledge
Hidden Gems

Wildlife

Conservation Note
High foot traffic at iconic viewpoints stresses trails and local resources—support small warungs, follow marked paths and avoid single-use plastics to reduce impact.
Tegalalang’s terraces reflect the Balinese subak cooperative irrigation system, an agrarian structure dating back centuries that links agriculture to local temples.
