Description
Explore East Bali on a private day trip with a driver. Visit Besakih Temple, Sidemen’s rice terraces and traditional weaving, and Gembleng Waterfall.
Begin your day with a private pickup from your hotel in Bali. Travel in a comfortable, air-conditioned vehicle to Besakih Temple, Bali's largest Hindu temple complex, located on the slopes of Mount Agung. Explore the temple grounds and learn about its significance from your driver-guide.
Next, head to the Sidemen Valley, where you'll stop to admire the rice terraces and traditional village scenery. Meet a local artisan for a hands-on weaving mini class. Learn about traditional Endek and Songket textiles, see how a hand-operated loom works, and try basic weaving techniques yourself.
After your weaving class, enjoy a lunch stop in Sidemen (at your own expense). Choose from a variety of local dishes and take in the views of the surrounding countryside.
Finally, visit Gembleng Waterfall and its natural rock pools. Relax, take photos, and enjoy the valley views. If conditions allow, take a refreshing swim in the pools before returning to your hotel.
