Full description

This is a 6-hour experience from Ubud, built around Tirta Empul and Coffee plantation. It is run by PT Aluna Bali Tours., an operator we book with directly rather than through a reseller, which is why we can hold your place with them before we treat your booking as final.

Tirta Empul is a water temple on the Pakerisan river at Tampaksiring, founded in 962 AD around a spring the Balinese hold sacred. The purification ritual, melukat, means entering the pool and moving from spout to spout under the water in order; two of the spouts are reserved for funeral rites and are not used, and a guide will show you which. Sarongs are provided at the entrance, and you will want a change of clothes for afterwards. The temple is busiest with local worshippers around full moon and on Balinese holy days, which is worth knowing rather than avoiding. The presidential palace built by Sukarno in the 1950s stands on the hill directly above the springs.

The price covers Private air-conditioned car with driver, Hotel pickup and drop-off, English-speaking guide/driver, Tirta Empul temple entrance ticket and Sarong and sash rental. It does not cover Lunch, Personal expenses and Gratuities, so budget for those separately. Everything included is listed in full on this page; if something is not on that list, assume it is not in the price.

Hotel pickup in Ubud. PT Aluna Bali Tours. confirms your pickup time and the exact spot once the booking is in. We need at least one day's notice, and we confirm the date with PT Aluna Bali Tours. before treating your booking as final. If they cannot take your date we tell you and refund you rather than leave you waiting.
