Full description

This is a 5-hour experience from Ubud, built around Jembatan Kuning Tukad Yeh Unda. It is run by Sidemen tour guide, 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.

The Tegallalang terraces are twenty minutes north of Ubud on the road to Kintamani, and they are working paddies fed by the subak irrigation system that UNESCO listed in 2012. Before about 8:30 in the morning the valley belongs to the farmers, the paddies are still wet from the night, and it is cool enough to walk down through the terraces and up the far side. By ten the coaches from the south arrive and the road above the terraces becomes a line of cafes, swings and photo platforms. There is a small entry fee at the viewpoint, and farmers along the paths through the fields ask for a few thousand rupiah to cross their land, which is normal. The swings are separate businesses with their own prices.

The price covers Hotel pickup and drop-off, Guide, Rice terrace visit, Coffee and tea tasting at local farm and Waterfall visit. It does not cover Personal expenses, 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.

Sidemen. We need at least one day's notice, and we confirm the date with Sidemen tour guide before treating your booking as final. If they cannot take your date we tell you and refund you rather than leave you waiting.

Il tour è stato molto ben organizzato, abbiamo iniziato da una passeggiata nelle risaie, accompagnati da spiegazioni sul processo di coltivazione del riso e di racconto della vita delle persone locali. Abbiamo proseguito per una degustazione di caffè e the locali, con visita anche al giardino e descrizione delle varie tipologie di piante. Dopo questa bella pausa rilassante ci siamo spostati verso la vista della spettacolare cascata di Gambleng con possibilità di fare il bagno e sostare a mangiare nel ristorante con vista. Molto bello!Poi ci siamo sposati verso il villaggio di Kadek, dove, oltr

We had a wonderful tour in Sidemen with our guide, Kadek. He was very friendly and knowledgeable, and he took us to beautiful rice terraces where he explained the rice growing and harvesting process. We also visited waterfalls and his home, where we learned about local life. Meeting his lovely family made us feel very welcome, and we enjoyed local banana snacks and a few shots of coconut alcohol. We ended the tour at the Yellow Bridge. Throughout the day, Kadek was always available to answer our questions and was kind enough to adjust the schedule since we had already visited a coffee plantati

Superbe visite ! La journée a commencé avec une visite des rizières et les explications attendues. Nous sommes ensuite allés visiter une plantation de café typique et nous avons fait une dégustation de nombreux thés et cafés ! Tous les balinais ont été très accueillants !! Nous avons continué avec la visite de la cascade pour admirer une vue incroyable ! Pour terminer, notre guide nous a fait découvrir sa maison et nous avons échangé sur la culture locale. Il nous a offert des spécialités et nous avons partagé un moment très convivial. Il nous a également emmené vers le pont jaune, qui offre u
