Discover the main cultural and photogenic places of east Bali guided by Made, your private driver.
He will pick you up at 8 a.m. at your hosting place with his comfortable air-conditioned car to drive you along the different steps of your day (distant from each other by a 20 to 80 minutes’ drive). Count on his smooth driving and his knowledge of the island to make you enjoy the car ride with views full of nature and passing by authentic villages.
You will first explore the gorgeous gardens of the radiant Tirta Gangga Water Palace. Then, visit the most iconic and photogenic Lempuyang Temple (Gate of Heaven). Your private driver will drop you off on a car park for this purpose, and you will have to go up with a shuttle bus that will take you to the entry of the site.
To be noted: you’ve probably already seen some of the famous pictures of the gate reflecting in the water. Warning: the truth behind Instagram is that there’s no little pond! It is a camera trick with a mirror that creates this effect. Adding to this that the waiting time for this picture can reach 3h. However, don’t only focus on the Gate of heaven as there is much more to see when you look around.
Then, you will spend the rest of your time at one of the most beautiful beaches of Bali: Virgin Beach, also known as White Sand Beach. Take some rest and spend the rest of the afternoon enjoying this gem of beauty with many options offered like grilled fresh fish, massage, snorkelling…
You will be back at your accommodation late in the afternoon or early in the evening depending on its location, the traffic conditions and the time spent on each step.

Tirta Gangga
An atypical palace in a charming setting.
Tirta Gangga is a truly not to be missed step of any travel in Bali. This “Water Palace” – built by the king of Amlapura in 1948 – is a splendid green haven of rare elegance and fineness.
You will inevitably enjoy strolling around its three carps and water lilies populated ponds, while admiring dozens of sculptures with expressive faces, finely-worked stone bridges and following the platforms as if you were walking on water!
You will also have the opportunity to refresh yourself next to the numerous water fountains and to relax in a pond that is dedicated to bathing.
Recommended visit duration: 45 to 60 minutes.
Lempuyang Temple (Gate of Heaven)
A sacred and photogenic place.
Located on the east side of Bali, Lempuyang Temple is one of the six main temples of the Island. Founded in the 11th century AC, it was established to protect the island when King Udanyana came to rule with his queen. It is one of the most respected temples in Bali.
Besides its historical and spiritual significance, it owns some of the best views on Mount Agung and is known as a famous photogenic place with the iconic Gate of Heaven. A victim of its own success, it has become a very popular spot to visit for Instagram users.
Recommended visit duration: 30 minutes (temple)
Waiting time for the Gate of Heaven picture: up to 180 minutes.
Virgin Beach
One of Bali’s most beautiful beaches
The perfect place to relax, sunbath or do snorkelling, gazing beautiful multi-coloured fish and coral reefs in crystal clear and shallow water. If you don’t have your own snorkelling kit, you can rent the equipment at one of the warung (restaurant).
The location is not totally untouched as a few beach huts have been set up. On site, you can enjoy delicious fresh fish, seafood and refreshing juices. You can choose to hire a sun lounger and/or to have a massage facing the crystal-clear waters, or to wander around the wilder parts to admire the fishing boats.
Recommended visit duration: 120 minutes.
