What to Expect from the Full Day Experience

This private, all-inclusive tour packs an impressive lineup of some of Bali’s most beautiful waterfalls into roughly 8 hours. Starting early at 8:00 am, your driver will pick you up from your hotel in Seminyak, setting the tone for a relaxed yet adventure-packed day. The tour is designed to give you a taste of Bali’s diverse waterfalls, each with its own unique charm.

Tukad Cepung Waterfall: Magic in the Light

Your first stop is Tukad Cepung, a waterfall celebrated for its captivating appearance, where water seems to shimmer like twinkling jewels. Located in Tembuku, Bangli, this site is relatively new on the Bali tourist map, but its popularity is growing fast thanks to the stunning combo of light and water.

What makes Tukad Cepung special? The fact that it’s situated inside a canyon makes it feel like stepping into a secret world. Visitors love the calm, clear waters perfect for a quick swim or photography. As one reviewer noted, it’s a perfect spot for photos because the lighting conditions create a beautiful, glowing effect. Expect about two hours here to enjoy the scenery and take plenty of photos.

Tegenungan Waterfall: Bali’s Iconic Cascade

Next up is Tegenungan, arguably Bali’s most famous waterfall, located in Ubud’s Kemenuh area. Its popularity stems from the easy access and impressive flow of water, which is safe enough for swimming and splashing around. Its popularity among both foreign and domestic travelers means you’ll often find it bustling, but that also means it’s well maintained and equipped.

One reviewer mentioned that even during the rainy season, access remained good, and they appreciated their guide’s suggestion to visit a nearby coffee plantation when a waterfall was temporarily closed. The crisp, clean water makes it a pleasant spot to cool off, and the surrounding lush jungle provides the perfect backdrop for photos.

Tibumana Waterfall: a Hidden Gem

Moving on, the tour takes you to Tibumana, a quieter, lesser-known waterfall tucked away in Apuan Village. Its unique feature? The tilted cliffs which give the appearance of a cave behind the water. The waterfall isn’t towering—around 20 meters high—but its setting on the cliffs makes it look like a secret hideaway.

According to reviews, Tibumana offers a peaceful escape away from the crowds. It’s ideal for those wanting a more relaxed experience. Expect to spend around two hours here, soaking in the serene atmosphere and admiring the natural formations.
