Arrival and Transfer to Ubud Homestay
Arrive at Ngurah Rai International Airport (Denpasar) and meet your driver for a private transfer to Ubud (approx. 1.5 hours depending on traffic).

Arrival airport transfer included. Early check-in subject to availability.
Ubud Village Walk, Monkey Forest & Tegalalang
Start with a guided walk through traditional Ubud lanes, visiting the sacred Ubud Monkey Forest (entrance included). Continue to the iconic Tegalalang Rice Terraces for photos and a gentle walk along the paddies. Return to Ubud for an optional art-house visit or souvenir shopping.
Wear comfortable shoes; sunscreen recommended for terrace walk.
Balinese Culture, Palace Visit & Cooking Class
Morning visit to Ubud Palace and its surrounding traditional architecture. Later, participate in a hands-on Balinese cooking class held in a local home — shop for fresh ingredients at a nearby market and learn classic recipes (class and lunch included). In the evening enjoy a traditional dance performance (subject to schedule).
Cooking class is family-friendly; please inform us of dietary restrictions in advance.
Local Markets, Village Cycle and Free Leisure Time
After breakfast, explore the vibrant Ubud Art Market and neighboring artisan shops. For an active option, take a guided short bicycle ride through nearby villages and rice fields (optional). Afternoon free — recommended: a family-friendly spa or craft workshop offered at the homestay.
Optional activities are payable locally; notify us if you prefer to pre-book.
Leisure Morning in Ubud and Preparations for Kintamani
Enjoy a relaxed morning at your homestay with breakfast. Spend time visiting a nearby gallery or attend a simple weaving/dyeing demonstration. Prepare for the next day's transfer to the highlands; pack light outerwear for cooler nights.
Homestay hosts can assist with light luggage transfers to Kintamani.
Transfer to Kintamani: Mount Batur Views & Coffee Plantation
Check out from your Ubud homestay and transfer to the Kintamani area. En route stop at a traditional Balinese coffee plantation (try Kopi Luwak sample) and continue to the Mount Batur viewpoint overlooking Lake Batur. Enjoy lunch with panoramic views and later check into a guesthouse near Lake Batur. Optional: local hot springs visit (entry payable locally).
Altitude is higher in Kintamani — temperatures are cooler especially in the evening.
Morning at Lake Batur, Transfer to Seminyak & Beach Time
Early morning at leisure — short walk along the lake or optional sunrise viewpoint (non-technical). After breakfast transfer to Seminyak on Bali's southwest coast. Check into a beach-area guesthouse or hotel and enjoy the afternoon on Seminyak Beach — sunset shopping at Seminyak markets.
Seminyak offers many family-friendly dining options; traffic to the south can add time to transfers.
Departure — Transfer to Airport
After breakfast check out from your Seminyak accommodation. Depending on flight time, enjoy a final short beach stroll or last-minute shopping. Private transfer to Ngurah Rai International Airport for your onward flight.

Bali Hotel Swap Done Before We Landed
We were already at the Delhi airport when we found out our Ubud hotel had some issue with our booking confirmation. My wife was understandably anxious — this was our first international trip together and I didn't want it starting on a bad note. Called our TourGrids coordinator, Priya, and she sorted an alternate property within the hour. Same area, honestly a better view than what we'd originally picked. No extra charge, no drama. Rest of the Bali trip — the Seminyak days, the cliff dinner, the transfers — all went exactly as planned. The pre-trip WhatsApp conversations were also proper detailed, nothing vague.
Bali Planning Wrapped Up Over Three Calls
I was honestly dreading the whole planning part — Bali has so many options and I didn't know where to start. Called TourGrids and the guy on the other end just asked the right questions — budget, vibe, how many days, what me and my wife wanted to skip. Three calls later, the itinerary was ready. They adjusted the Ubud days when I said we wanted more beach time, no fuss. Hotels were proper good, cabs were on time, and the coordinator was reachable on WhatsApp throughout. No hidden charges at the end, everything matched what was quoted. First time booking through an agency and it went better than trips I've planned myself.
Bali Itinerary Built Around Our Actual Days
My wife and I had been putting off this Bali trip for two years because planning felt overwhelming. A friend suggested TourGrids and honestly, within the first call itself things started falling into place. The coordinator asked proper questions — our budget, what kind of experiences we wanted, whether we preferred beach days or cultural spots — and built the itinerary around that. No generic package dumped on us. A couple of WhatsApp exchanges later, hotels, flights, and cabs were all confirmed. No hidden charges, everything was transparent upfront. The Bali trip itself went exactly as planned. Just really glad we found someone who actually listened before booking anything.
Bali Planning Was Genuinely This Easy
I was honestly expecting the usual back-and-forth confusion when planning an international trip, but TourGrids surprised me. My wife and I wanted a Bali trip that wasn't just the standard tourist circuit, so I called them up and explained what we were looking for — more local experiences, fewer crowded spots. The team actually listened. Within a day they sent a customised itinerary that matched what we had discussed. We went over it on a call, made a couple of changes, and it was finalised quickly. Hotels were proper good, no surprise charges at the end, and everything was laid out clearly before we paid. The whole planning process felt very organised without being overwhelming.
