Bali’s Best Nature Tour: Tegallalang, Holy Springs & Jungle Waterfalls

Overview

If you’re looking for a day filled with iconic Bali views, local culture, and hidden jungle gems, this tour’s got you covered. It’s a mix of everything, lush rice terraces, holy springs, a home-style lunch, and two waterfalls that feel like your own private paradise (if we time it right). Perfect if you want to explore without rushing, and still have energy left after.

We start with the famous Tegallalang Rice Terraces. You’ve probably seen the photos, layers of bright green rice fields carved into the hillside. The views are unreal, and early in the day, it’s peaceful and breezy. You can walk a bit, take photos, or just sit and soak it all in.

Next up, Tirta Empul Temple. This one’s spiritual, but in a really down-to-earth way. Locals come here for purification in the holy spring water. You can join the ritual if you want (just bring a change of clothes), or just walk around and watch, it’s a beautiful experience either way.

Then we stop for lunch at a local warung. Nothing fancy, just good Balinese food and chill vibes. Think crispy duck, grilled chicken, or nasi campur, with a view of rice fields or jungle. You’ll eat well without breaking the bank.

After lunch, we head into the jungle for Kanto Lampo Waterfall. It’s close to town but feels hidden. Water flows over big black rocks, and if the light hits right, it’s seriously photogenic. It’s not too deep, so you can dip your feet or go all in.

Last stop, Tibumana Waterfall. This one’s a favorite for a reason. Short walk through a palm tree forest, then bam—a tall, clean waterfall with a calm pool below. Super peaceful, great for a swim, and not too crowded if we get there before late afternoon.
