Rr Bali Tours · Denpasar
A car and English-speaking driver from Rr Bali Tours for 10 to 11 hours, with parking and water in the price and no fixed route. Book it if you know what you want to see; Tegenungan isn't on the listing, so you put it on the list yourself.
This isn't a tour in the usual sense. Rr Bali Tours sends a car and driver to your door, anywhere from Ubud to Nusa Dua, and the day goes where you say for 10 to 11 hours. Parking and mineral water are covered; entry fees, food and tips are not. Drivers can take photos and give background, and guests name a long list of them warmly. Not every driver is a talker, and one recent guest wrote of a quiet driver and weak air conditioning.
Tegenungan appears nowhere in the listing, which is why we added it. It's an easy fit: 10 to 11 km south of Ubud, about an hour from Seminyak, open from 6:30 am. Put it first and you get the pool before the tour groups arrive after 10. After that the day is yours: the Monkey Forest at its 9 am opening, say, then Tegallalang and Tirta Empul. You pay every gate in cash: IDR 30,000 at Tegenungan, IDR 130,000 at the Monkey Forest, IDR 75,000 at Tirta Empul.
The $32 is per person for the largest group, and the listing says the price depends on the number of passengers, so a couple pays more each; Viator shows the total for your group. Overtime is USD 5 an hour according to the listing. One guest was told about extra hours only back at the hotel, so agree the finish time at the start. For a Tegenungan-only trip a driver is overkill; a Grab out and a driver back can be cheaper.
Our suggested plan, not the operator's. Send your wish list the day before; guests report drivers reworking it to beat traffic.
Quiet at this hour. About 170 to 200 steps to the pool; the staff decide if the wading area is open.
Right at opening, before the crowds. IDR 130,000 per adult.
Lunch is on you. Tegallalang's booths and farmers ask small cash donations.
The water temple, open to about 6 pm, or a second waterfall such as Tibumana.
Check the clock before adding a stop. Each extra hour is USD 5.
★★★★★My driver Wayan was awesome! Took me to a waterfall and hot springs by the volcano that I wasn't aware of. Was patient while I enjoyed locations and got me back to the hotel on time.
★★★★★He was a safe, reliable driver and knew all the shortcuts to help us avoid traffic [...] We visited two temples, had lunch, went to the rice terraces, did a couple of swings, and finished with a beautiful waterfall.
★★★★★Chepot gave us as much time as we needed at each spot, waiting patiently even when we messaged to say we needed another 30 minutes, or another hour! He provided recommendations on what we wanted to see and in what order we should see them, which was useful.
★★★★★We decided to book a driver the night before, and in the morning I received a WhatsApp message from our driver Arlan letting us know he was at our hotel, and he had even arrived earlier than our set time.

Only if you ask. The listing has no fixed route and doesn't name Tegenungan. Add it to the wish list you send; it's 10 to 11 km south of Ubud and an easy first stop.
No. Parking and water are included; entry fees are not. At Tegenungan you pay IDR 30,000 per adult in cash, and every other sight has its own gate. See our entrance fee guide.
More than $32 each. The $32 is the per-person price for the largest group, and the listing prices by passenger numbers. Viator shows your exact total once you choose a date and the number of travellers.
The listing charges USD 5 for each extra hour. Agree the finish time with your driver in the morning so nobody is surprised at the hotel.
