in this video i'm going to be giving you 17 must-do things in Ubud, Bali there is so much
to see from waterfalls temples rice terraces food Ubud is one of my favourite places in Bali and it
is located in the center of the island among the rain forest with so much to do in and around Ubud
i spent a month exploring this area of Bali and honestly i would go back for more the best way
to get around Ubud is definitely by scooter and you can do this by renting it from most hotels
or hostels they vary in cost but they usually cost between thousand and eighty thousand a
day remember to bargain and if you're getting it for a long period of time you can get a good deal
let's start with number one and that is suet waterfall this waterfall is probably one you
haven't heard of but honestly it's a must go to it is absolutely beautiful and there are actually two
jump spots so if you feel like a bit of adrenaline junkie then you can do flips jumps into the water
and you can even jump through the waterfall the waterfall is about a 30 minute drive from
the center of Ubud and it costs 15 000 rupiah for the entrance fee number two and this is one
you probably have heard of and it is the monkey forest this place has been done so well and is
such a cool environment there are over a thousand monkeys split into six different groups Emilia and
i were pretty scared about going in here because we've had some crazy situations with monkeys how
are you finding it Emilia i'm terrified of monkeys but to be honest it was such a great experience
and these monkeys aren't as frightening as some of the wild ones which just come and
like grab your bags we got an awesome photo of a monkey on our shoulders but you can also get
that famous selfie shot you've probably seen it on instagram and the staff there will help you take
the photos the entrance fee is 80 000 rupiah and it's so worth it now number three is Creyta Ubud
this place only opened in 2021 and it's awesome nestled in the rice terraces just outside Ubud
it's something very different from the rest of the stuff and you could easily just spend the day here
relaxing in the terraced pools the pool is so cool definitely an experience in itself
and it does get a little chilly but there are two hot tubs we entered for only 50 000 rupiah
and you can actually spend unlimited amount of time here but the food and drinks aren't too
bad considering how luxurious this place is. Now, number four is Tegalalang rice terraces
i think that's how you pronounce it these rice terraces are absolutely beautiful and very
different to the rice fields as they're built in the valley if you're into photography then i
recommend going for sunrise because you get some beautiful light and also sun rays in the morning
you will also see the local farmers there looking after their fields and they're always happy to see
the tourists the entrance fee is 15 000 each and there's lots of spots that they've built
for the classic instagram shots and you can also pay extra to go on the Bali swings number five
is Titra empal temple now this is 30 minutes away from Ubud and it is a hindu balinese water temple
famous for its holy water and ritual purification which you can actually partake in yourself now if
you want to enter the temple it costs fifty thousand as an entrance fee now number six is
another waterfall it's called Leke Leke waterfall and it's about an hour's drive from Ubud now
i don't know what it is but i feel like this waterfall has kind of a magical feel to it it's
honestly beautiful and it's got a really nice walk down into the valley for some reason we had this
waterfall to ourselves for about 15 minutes until other tourists came which is very unusual for
waterfall in bali you can kind of go swimming at this waterfall but not quite the same as you can
as number one sue at waterfall the water is so cold the entrance feed to this waterfall is 50
000 rupiah each now there is one more waterfall on this list and it is probably the most impressive
of the three so stay tuned for that as you may know i am back in the uk now and i feel like
this is a time where i really want to try and work on my videos and just take them to the next level

link and yeah let's start creating content number seven is hiking mount peter and the hot springs
after honestly this is one of my favorite things to do in bali now is not every day you get a
chance to hike a volcano and why not do it in bali when you're there i've been to bali three times
and it was only on my third time that i did this hike because i thought it was going to be really
touristy and it was touristy but it is so worth it it's touristy for a reason this hike is insane as
you'll see from these drone shots it is beautiful now i went on a guided tour and is pretty much
the only way you can climb up the volcano but it's so worth it it's not too expensive and
i'll leave the guided tours down below there's literally a link you can click the hike up there
is fairly challenging and is about two hour walk but it is so worth the views once you're up there
after the volcano you can actually go to natural hot springs where the water is heated
via the volcano and this is included in one of the tours now number eight is renting a private
villa and you can do this anywhere in bali but if you're doing ubered or the area around it then
you can get some really nice views from the villa now i think bali is probably one of the cheapest
places in the world to get a private villa we actually got a private villa with a private pool
with that beautiful rice field view for only 50 pounds now to get the best deals on these private
letters make sure you book well in advance and if you book for a week or even a month
you normally get big discounts now number nine is exploring ubud center the markets and the shops
there are so many different shops in ubud and it's a really artsy kind of place so it's really nice
just to walk around the different shops go to the markets and just get some really good deals if you
are going into the shops make sure you're buying because you can get some really really good deals
now if you're in the market make sure you try some of the local fruit like dragon fruit snake
skin durian if you're having durian don't bring it into your hotel room because it absolutely stinks
now it is obviously free to walk around the center so if you're on a budget it's a good thing to do
number 10 is something i've done a lot and it's the kampung bridge walk an easy walk
escaping the hustle and bustle near the center of it where you can walk on a ridge between two
rivers with rice fields around and also enjoy an amazing drink at one of the many cafes this place
is famous for its two palm trees on instagram you may have seen it there are also a couple of
rice field walks you can do not far from ubud which are a lot quieter than the ridge walk
number 11 is trying the rooms and the restaurants there are so many restaurants in ubud and honestly
the food is amazing now if you haven't been to bali you probably don't know what a whirring is
but it's basically a family owned shop now there is a whole range of indonesian food and you can
literally choose what you want now bali is known for all its quirky cool restaurants and cafes
and there are loads in uber too which you can try there's even a raw vegan restaurant
which you should try if you want to try something different you gotta try the raw vegan pizza
number 12 and you can either do this for a day trip or a couple of days and that is going to
cinnamon it's a very quiet region not too far from Ubud but it's so peaceful you can rent some really
nice villas called hideout barley and honestly they are insane compared to Ubud it's a really
laid back kind of chilled vibe so if you want to escape the hustle and bustle of Ubud i definitely
recommend checking out cinnamon you also get insane views of the volcano and some really
cool hikes around there through the rice fields so if you wanted some peace go check it out we stayed
at sweet escape and even though the rooms were okay you're surrounded by rice fields and forests
number 13 is coffee plantation you have to visit coffee plantation in Bali the barley coffee or
coffee barley is so good and i had it every single day for breakfast at a coffee plantation you can
actually see how coffee is made and actually try and see how the famous Luwak coffee is made which
is where they basically poop out and it's supposed to be one of the best tasting coffees in the world
actually tastes really good you can also try a range of other different coffees
we personally went to Bali Paulina and it was so good i definitely recommend it
for a hundred thousand rupiah you can use that as a voucher to get coffee and some food
and you get an amazing guide tour around the plantation number fourteen is the Jatiluwih rice
terraces now this is about an hour's drive from Ubud this is actually a unesco world heritage site
and is a lot less touristy than the Tegalalang rice terraces i talked about earlier there are
loads of rice fields around here and there's so many different hikes you can do all around them
there's also lots of cafes looking over the rice fields now these rice terraces are actually 850
meters above sea level and it does get a little chilly here the entrance fee is 40 000 rupiah per
person moving on to number 15 visit Gunung Kawi this is a really interesting temple and it's very
different than other temples in Bali Gunung Kawi is actually an underground temple carved into the
side of the cliff and it's an 11th century temple now number 16 is explore the surroundings of Ubud
on a scooter there is so much to see and you can go through the rice fields walking along ones
with no other tourists on talking to the local people and it's just such a nice thing to do
as you'll see when you're there so many tourists rent scooters in Bali and it is the best way
to get around honestly it feels so good when you've got empty roads rice fields either side
it feels unreal so rent a scooter and just explore now number 17 the last one but i've
actually got a couple of bonuses to give you as well so make sure you stay tuned for that is
Nung nung waterfall Nung nung waterfall is absolutely beautiful and is one of my favourite
waterfalls on the whole island of Bali it's so big it's cool isn't it i feel like i'm in a trunk
is about a one hour drive from Ubud and honestly it is worth it to avoid the crowds make sure you
get there really early we got there at 7 30 a.m and there was no one else there for an
hour the hike down into the valley is really cool going through the jungle and the hike back up is
quite demanding but it is so worth the effort the entrance fee is just 20 000 rupiah per person and
is well worth the money now i'm going to give you a couple of bonus things to do in Ubud Bali which
i haven't done myself but i've heard that they're really good fun the first one is white water
rafting and you can do this with a tour and i'll leave a link in the description to a tour also
you can go on atvs and drive through the jungle and get completely covered in mud my friends did
it and they said it was so much fun thank you so much for watching i hope that was useful and have
a good time in Ubud if you've got any comments of what to do in Ubud for other people then
leave them in the description and i'll see you in the next video thank you for watching see ya
