Spend a day exploring ancient temples set on tranquil lakes, wandering through verdant forests with playful monkeys, and ending with a stunning sunset at one of Bali’s most iconic sea temples. Ready to discover what makes Bali truly special?
If that sounds like your kind of journey, let’s delve into what the Bedugul and Tanah Lot Sunset Tour has in store for you.
What’s the Tour All About?
This full-day tour is all about immersing yourself in the natural beauty and rich culture of Bali’s lesser-known treasures. You’ll venture into the cool highlands of Bedugul, explore ancient temples with deep spiritual significance, and witness breathtaking landscapes that showcase the island’s authentic charm.
First up is Taman Ayun Temple, located in the charming village of Mengwi. This 17th-century temple complex was once the royal family’s main place of worship. Surrounded by a tranquil moat and landscaped gardens, it’s a peaceful oasis that offers a glimpse into Bali’s regal past. The multi-tiered shrines, known as meru, are architectural masterpieces that highlight traditional Balinese design.
Next, you’ll journey to the highlands of Bedugul to visit the famous Ulun Danu Beratan Temple. Nestled on the shores of Lake Beratan and often embraced by mist, this temple is dedicated to Dewi Danu, the goddess of water. Its unique location makes it appear as if it’s floating on the lake, especially during high tide. The surrounding mountains and cool climate enhance its mystical atmosphere, offering countless opportunities for memorable photographs.
After absorbing the spiritual ambiance, you’ll head to Alas Kedaton Monkey Forest. This sanctuary is home to hundreds of friendly monkeys and a sacred temple hidden within the forest. Unlike the more crowded monkey forests, Alas Kedaton provides a relaxed setting where you can interact with the monkeys and explore the temple grounds without the usual hustle and bustle.
Finally, the day culminates at the iconic Tanah Lot Temple. Perched on a rocky outcrop in the sea, this temple is one of Bali’s most famous landmarks. As the sun sets, the sky fills with vibrant hues, providing a breathtaking backdrop to the silhouette of the temple. It’s the perfect way to wrap up a day filled with culture, nature, and adventure.
Throughout the tour, you’ll be accompanied by an English-speaking guide who will share fascinating stories and insights about each location. All entrance fees are covered, and you’ll enjoy a delicious local lunch to keep you energized for the day.
What You’ll Experience
Taman Ayun Temple: A Royal Welcome
Your adventure begins with a visit to Taman Ayun Temple. As you cross the bridge over the moat, you step into a serene environment rich with history. The temple complex is expansive, featuring manicured gardens, lotus ponds, and intricate stone carvings. Climb up to the elevated pavilion for panoramic views of the temple grounds. It’s a tranquil spot perfect for capturing photos and soaking in the peaceful atmosphere.
Ulun Danu Beratan Temple: Mystique on the Lake
Next, you’ll make your way to the highlands and arrive at Ulun Danu Beratan Temple. The cool air is a refreshing change as you approach the temple’s iconic pagodas that seem to float on the lake’s surface. Explore the temple’s intricate architecture up close and learn about its significance in Balinese Hinduism. Don’t forget to wander through the nearby botanical gardens, where you’ll find exotic plants and flowers unique to the region.
Lunch Break: Savor Local Delights
After a morning of exploration, you’ll enjoy a hearty lunch at a local restaurant. Feast on traditional Balinese dishes like ayam betutu (spiced roasted chicken) or babi guling (suckling pig), accompanied by fresh tropical fruits and perhaps a cup of Bali’s famous coffee. It’s a culinary experience that complements the day’s adventures.
Alas Kedaton Monkey Forest: Into the Wild
With your energy restored, you’ll head to Alas Kedaton Monkey Forest. Stroll along shaded pathways as curious monkeys swing from the trees above. The forest is less crowded than other tourist spots, giving you a more intimate experience with the wildlife. Your guide will offer tips on how to interact safely with these playful creatures. Inside the forest, discover the ancient temple adorned with moss-covered statues and ornate gates — a true hidden treasure.
Tanah Lot Temple: Sunset Serenity
As the day winds down, you’ll arrive at Tanah Lot Temple just in time for the sunset spectacle. Explore the surrounding area, browse local handicraft stalls, or simply find a cozy spot to sit and watch the horizon. When the sun begins its descent, the sky bursts into shades of orange, pink, and purple. The sight of the temple silhouetted against this vibrant backdrop is nothing short of magical.
