Tlaga Singha Ubud Infinity Pool + Ubud Private Highlights.

Pool first, temples later in Ubud. This private day tour strings together Tlaga Singha’s jungle infinity pool, waterfall views, and classic Ubud sights with the flexibility to add an adrenaline activity if you want it. I especially like that the morning-to-afternoon plan includes pool access and a drink included, so you’re not constantly opening your wallet, and you also get a local-driver style route that keeps the day feeling efficient. One thing to watch: pickup timing can get confusing, so I’d confirm the start time the day before and keep your contact details ready.

You’ll be driven in an air-conditioned car with WiFi onboard, and you can shape the day around your mood—culture and nature first, or adventure if you’re craving more action. The tour is built for small-group freedom (only your group), which makes it easier to pace yourself, pause for photos, and enjoy the jungle setting without feeling rushed. The main drawback isn’t the sights—it’s that some ticketed stops aren’t included, so plan for entrance fees and bring enough cash/card for water, tickets, and any optional activities.

Key highlights at a glance

• Tlaga Singha Jungle Infinity Pool time (2 hours) with entry included
• 1 drink free plus pool access, and you can spend the time swimming or just hanging out
• Customizable adventure options: ATV ride, white-water rafting, jungle trekking, or tubing
• Four classic Ubud-area stops: Tegenungan Waterfall, Batuan Temple, and Tegalalang Rice Terrace
• Private transportation with onboard WiFi and bottled water
• Mind the start time: confirm pickup details so you don’t lose your morning

How the day is paced: a private Ubud hits-the-highlights flow

This is a full-day private outing, usually around 8 to 10 hours, starting with a real mood-setter: Tlaga Singha Jungle Infinity Pool. That order matters. If you’re in Bali for a short time, you often end up seeing things first and paying for relaxation last. Here, you get the pool early, when the day still feels fresh and you can actually enjoy the water-view vibe instead of treating it like a quick stop.

From there, you head into the Ubud-area highlights. The day includes Tegenungan Waterfall, Batuan Temple, and Tegalalang Rice Terrace—the kind of stops that look good in photos and still work when you’re there in person. Each has a different tempo: the waterfall is short and energetic, the temple gives you quiet visual detail, and the rice terrace is your slow “look around and take pictures” hour.

You’re also not locked into a single type of travel. Optional adventure add-ons are part of the experience concept, so you can choose thrills like an ATV ride, white-water rafting, jungle trekking, or tubing. If you’re traveling with mixed interests—one person wants culture, one person wants adrenaline—you’ll likely find a better match here than on a fixed itinerary bus.

Tlaga Singha Jungle Infinity Pool: why this stop feels worth the day

Tlaga Singha is the star of this tour, and the details back it up. You get 2 hours there with the admission ticket included plus pool access and one drink free. That combination is practical: you’re paying to use the facility, not just walk around it.

What I like about this pool setup is the way it’s designed for different energy levels. You can swim, yes. But you can also do the Bali thing where you’re not trying to win a workout—you’re trying to enjoy the view. The description points to sunken lounges and a jungle-overlook setting. Even if you’re not a “sit still for an hour” person, that layout makes it easier to decompress between sightseeing stops.

A few practical tips so the pool time doesn’t feel like a rushed side quest:

• Bring or plan to change into swimwear before you arrive. You’ll want to use the time.
• Consider your comfort with stairs and wet surfaces. Infinity pools tend to be slippery when wet.
• If you want the best photos, spend your first minutes looking for angles from the pool area, not just from the entrance.

One small but important note from the inclusion list: cabana and long chair are not included. You can still relax without them, but if you’re picturing a full “daybed” setup, you’ll want to expect a possible extra cost once you’re on site.

Tegenungan Waterfall: a short stop with strong nature energy

Next up is Tegenungan Waterfall, placed in a lush setting near Ubud and known for being one of Bali’s more accessible waterfalls. Your time here is about 45 minutes, and that length is honestly a good fit for most people. You get close enough to feel the power of the falling water, and you still have enough day left to enjoy the temple and rice terrace without turning everything into a sprint.

What to consider:

• Waterfalls can be slippery and crowded around the best views. Move carefully, especially on wet ground.
• This stop’s ticket is not included, so you’ll want to factor in entrance fees.
• If you’re sensitive to loud noise, this is one of the louder stops. The water sound is part of the experience, but it helps to know what you’re stepping into.

Since you’re coming from pool time, you may be more comfortable because you’ve already built in time for changing pace. It’s a nice contrast: calm jungle pool to energetic waterfall in less than an hour.

Batuan Temple: the calmer side of Bali’s spirituality

After the waterfall, you shift into a more grounded, detailed stop: Batuan Temple. Your time is around 45 minutes, and the tone here changes. Instead of rushing around for views, you’re looking for craftsmanship—Balinese architecture and stone carvings—plus the peaceful feeling of a working spiritual site.

The description highlights that it’s one of Bali’s older temples and known for artistic detail. That’s exactly why I like temple stops on tours like this: they slow the day down without requiring you to be in “museum mode.” You can pause, look at carvings, step back to see the full structure, and then let your eyes adjust to the quieter rhythm.

A practical note: the entrance ticket for this and other non-pool stops is not included. So keep some budget aside for temple entry and waterfall/rice terrace tickets.

Tegalalang Rice Terrace: one hour to take your time with the view

Then comes Tegalalang Rice Terrace—about 1 hour. This is the classic layered green scene people come to Bali for, with rice paddies carved across the hills. If you like photography, this hour is your playground. If you don’t, you can still use the time to enjoy the open-air walking and the slower pace.

Here’s what makes this stop work in a day like this: it’s long enough to explore without turning into a “wander for hours” situation. Also, it fits well after a temple stop. The temple gives you detail up close; the rice terrace gives you a big-picture view plus small moments like paths, viewpoints, and layered farming patterns.

Because tickets for this stop aren’t included, you’ll want to be ready for entrance fees on arrival.

Optional adventure adds-ons: how to choose without ruining the day

The best part of this tour’s design is that it’s not stuck in one mode. You can keep the day as culture + jungle relaxation, or swap in more adrenaline.

Available optional activities include:

• ATV ride
• White-water rafting
• Jungle trekking
• Tubing

If you’re deciding what to add, think about energy and timing:

• If you already feel like you’ll swim and lounge at Tlaga Singha, an ATV or tubing-style activity may fit better because it can keep movement exciting without taking over your whole day.
• If you pick white-water rafting or long jungle trekking, you’ll likely want to plan around physical effort. Those can turn a day that includes multiple sightseeing stops into a more exhausting schedule.
• If you’re traveling with someone who doesn’t want to do the adventure, the private format helps because your driver can adjust your plan around the group’s preferences.

Also remember the tour is weather-dependent. If conditions aren’t good, the activity plan may be affected, and the provider notes that a poor-weather day can mean a different date or a refund.

Value for the money: what $55 really buys you

At $55 per person, the tour is priced like a solid “experience day,” especially because key costs are handled upfront. You’re paying for:

• Private transportation in an air-conditioned vehicle
• WiFi onboard and bottled water
• Tlaga Singha admission + pool access
• 1 drink free at the pool

That’s the main value equation: the expensive-feeling part of Bali—jungle views, pool entry, a proper facility experience—comes included. Then you add in additional ticketed stops (waterfall, temple, rice terrace), lunch (not included), and any cabana/long chair upgrades if you want them.

Two more pricing realities to keep in mind:

• The tour has a minimum booking of 2 people.
• If you’re solo, there’s an extra cost of 350,000 IDR paid directly to the driver.

If you’re okay with paying separate entrance fees for specific sites and you want a full day that mixes relaxation with sightseeing, the pricing feels fair. If you’re strictly cost-minimizing and hate extra tickets, you may prefer a shorter tour or a more basic driver-only day where you control every entrance fee yourself.

The logistics that matter (and one thing you should double-check)

This is a private tour, meaning it’s only your group in the vehicle. That reduces waiting and lets you set a comfortable pace. You also get pickup offered and a mobile ticket, which is handy when you’re bouncing between hotel and meeting points.

But based on real-world hiccups (including at least one case where a booked early time didn’t line up and a later pickup happened), I’d treat start time confirmation as part of smart planning. Send a message or call to verify:

• the pickup time,
• the pickup location,
• and that your contact details are correct.

Then you can enjoy the day instead of starting it stressed.

Who should book this Ubud highlights + pool day?

This tour is a great fit if you want:

• A private day with a local-driver approach
• One standout relaxation stop (Tlaga Singha) with real included value
• Multiple Ubud-area sights without juggling transport yourself
• The option to add adventure if you’re not ready to spend the whole day in calm mode

It may not be ideal if you:

• hate paying separate entrance fees for each stop
• want a very early, ultra-structured schedule without any chance of timing confusion
• plan to pack in the highest-effort adventure add-on and still do everything else at full energy

Should you book it?

I’d book this if you’re aiming for a day that feels like Bali in two speeds: jungle relaxation at Tlaga Singha and classic Ubud nature/culture stops afterward. The inclusion of pool access and a drink makes it feel like you’re getting something real, not just getting dropped off at photo points.

If you do book, do one thing that improves the odds of a smooth day: confirm pickup timing the day before and keep your phone handy. After that, you can focus on the best part—swimming in a jungle infinity pool, then switching gears to temples and waterfalls at a pace that feels like it was planned for humans.
