Ubud in ten seconds

Ubud is Bali's cultural heart — jungle, rice terraces, temples and the famous Monkey Forest, about an hour and a half inland from Kuta. It's my most-requested day trip; here's how to do it right.

Start early

Terraces & temples before 9am.

🧣
Bring a sarong

Required at every temple.

🐒
Watch the monkeys

They really do take things.

🌧️
Cooler & greener

Evenings are mild inland.

🚕
~1.5 hr from Kuta

Best done as a driver day trip.

🛕
Respect ceremonies

You’re a guest at living temples.
