Full description

This is a 2-hour experience in Uluwatu, built around Kecak Uluwatu. It is run by Trip Gotik - 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.

Pura Luhur Uluwatu stands on a cliff about 70 metres above the sea at the south-western tip of the Bukit peninsula, one of Bali's six directional temples, associated with the eleventh-century priest Empu Kuturan. The Kecak fire dance is performed in an amphitheatre beside the temple every evening at about 6:00, timed so the sunset is behind the performers; it runs around an hour, the chanting is done by a circle of men with no instruments, and the story is the Ramayana. Sarongs are provided at the gate. The temple's monkeys are practised thieves of sunglasses and phones, so keep both in a bag while walking the cliff path.

The price covers Uluwatu Temple entry ticket, Guide, Mineral water, Kecak dance ticket and Lunch. It does not cover Tips, 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 Uluwatu. Trip Gotik - 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 Trip Gotik - 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.

We really enjoyed the experience. Sagita was so helpful the whole time and made sure we knew what we were doing which was a big help with a baby. Doing a private tour is definitely the way to go with little ones and we were still able to enjoy our time.

This was an unforgettable experience, I ended up going to Tanah Lot Temple because of my requested time instead of Uluwatu Temple, but it definitely did not disappoint!! Tanah Lot is unlike any temple I’ve seen before, with stunning views of the Indian Ocean, and I even was fortunate enough to touch the Holy Snake, and be blessed by a priest, for good luck!! My tour guide, Dek, was very knowledgeable, and helped me take some great pictures, so I could have wonderful memories of my experience!! And, in the evening, I went to the original Kecak Dance, with a stunning Balinese coastal sunset back

Our guide was really friendly and took great photos of us + saved a few other tourists belonging from the monkeys. He also had heaps of information as a local who actually visits the temple to pray himself that he shared with us patiently and kindly (even with heaps of questions) ☺️ definitely recommend!

Wayan was amazing! The monkeys are intimidating so it gave us reassurance having a guide. He also took pictures then sent them on WhatsApp so we didnt have to worry about monkeys grabbing our phones. Wayan was great with our daughter and really wanted to make sure we had the best day. Thank you!
