Highly recommended day trip in Bali - Best of Ubud's Highlights Full-Day Tour with Bali 4U Tours - We thoroughly enjoyed our trip in Ubud and would like to thank Bali 4U Tours and our driver/guide Dastra for organising the day for us. We highly recommended this tour. We visited an artisan village, Tegenungan Waterfall, Goa Gajah Temple, Tegalalang Rice Terrace, and spent some free time walking through Ubud City Centre. We opted not to visit the Monkey Forest. One of the highlights of our trip was taking lunch at Bebek Joni. We sat in beautiful gazebos overlooking the rice terraces while we enjoyed a sumptuous lunch. Our sincere thanks to Dastra for helping make this trip to Bali so enjoyable. He has a wealth of knowledge about Balinese culture and we learned many things.
