Highlights
- Gates of Heaven - Lempuyang Temple, also known as the Gate of Heaven, is believed to be older than most Hindu temples on the island. A must-visit for the fit and adventurous, the main temple is situated at 1,175 meters above sea level, atop Mount Lempuyang in East Bali. The ascent involves a steep staircase with over 1,700 steps, featuring several other temples and numerous grey long-tailed macaques in the surrounding cool mountain forests.
- Tirta Gangga - The Tirta Gangga Water Palace was designed and built in 1948 by Anak Agung Anglurah Ketut Karangasem (1887 - 1966), the last king of Karangasem. He was notable not only for designing the water gardens but also for participating in their construction. Many were surprised to see the Raja working alongside laborers, knee-deep in mud, digging out the pools and ponds.
- Virgin Beach - Virgin Beach is considered one of the best beaches in Bali for those seeking a less crowded spot. Although frequently mentioned in travel guidebooks, it remains relatively undiscovered by visitors.
- Tenganan Ancient Village - Located northwest of Candidasa, about 5 kilometers from the main road, Tenganan is a symmetrically laid-out Bali Aga village with walled homes and unique crafts. The Bali Aga were the original inhabitants of Bali before the arrival of Hindu Javanese. Tenganan maintains its ancient pre-Hindu customs through a strict code of non-fraternization with outsiders, reinforced by its protective walls.

Amazing sites of interest by VW Open top classic car - The pick up was on time and the VW open top was in very original condition. Perfect for seeing the sites of Bali. We visited temples with amazing line of site to the volcano plus beaches and other places of interest. Kopi navigated the Bali road system with confidence and was a mine of information on local culture and traditions. We agreed it was a better experience than an air conditioned mini bus and enjoyed the day completely.

Great day! - I had a great day with Keta. The VW was so cool and he explained the day to me as we went. We even got to see a village tradition that happens only once a year. I’d recommend booking this and requesting him.

Fun and Fabulous - The day we spent with Gede Ari was the highlight of our entire 12-day trip to Bali. The classic VW proved far more comfortable than I imagined and my eight-year-old son fell in love with the whole open-air experience. We chose the east coast tour which included a temple, a pristine beach and a water garden. Worth every penny!
