Take a trekking tour through small, hidden paths through the rice paddies and coconut plantations. You’ll stop by the home of a local, where your host will serve you some fresh coconut and Balinese cakes.

You'll get to know a histiric palace called Puri Saren Agung in the heart of Ubud. Most of it dates back to the early 20th century, after the 1917 earthquake destroyed the previous royal family. To this day, royals still dwell within its elaborately sculpted walls. Many of the buildings in the compound aren’t as ornate, but the grounds still make for an interesting place to explore. Your guide can point out interesting stone carvings made by a local artist named Gusti Nyoman Lempad. Blanco, arguably the most famous and successful artist to ever live in Bali, built his magnificent studio on top of a mountain overlooking the Campuan River. This flamboyant building, a unique blend of Balinese architecture imbued with the spirit of his native Spain, houses an interesting collection of works drawn from different periods of his long career. Finally, you’ll head to one of the most popular attractions in Ubud, the Sacred Monkey Forest. This is an ecological reserve that serves as a sanctuary for the long-tailed macaque and has its own Hindu temple complex.
