Sightseeing

Go before 9:00 am to beat the tour buses and enjoy a peaceful morning in this beautiful temple, elephant cave and gardens. Tip, bring your own sarong so you don't have to rent one for entry.

A series of beautiful wall carvings, in the rice fields, off the beaten tourist track. A nice place to stop after Goa Gajah. Tip, stop for a tropical drink at the warung just beyond the ticket booth.

There are loads of rafting companies that take you down the Ayung River, a must-do when you are in Ubud, but this company is our favorite - friendly, safety conscious guides and a lovely lunch at the end of your trip. Be prepared for a long walk back up from the river!

Touristy but delicious if you like slow roasted pork (babi guling). Ask for the "special," then take a peek around back to see the pigs roasting on spits.

A more limited menu than Locavore, but just as delicious and open for lunch. For meat eaters, it's a close tie between the burger and the pulled pork sandwich. Fabulous!

Try the Rooster for cocktails and tapas. It's an intimate bar, just across the road from Locavore and around the corner from Locavore to Go, up a small flight of stairs. Owned by the same group, it Is a great place to escape the crowds. Don't miss!

Essentials

The cafe is popular (if unremarkable) but the grocery on Jl. RAya Ubud is a small but well curated market, has fresh, organic fruit and vegetables, a good selection of breads, bagels and other baked goods as well as Bali Buda brand granola, cookies and other products.
