About this tour
Escape the south's tourist trail with this two-day northern expedition starting at dawn with Barong and Keris dance, followed by lunch overlooking Mount Batur's volcanic slopes in Kintamani. Overnight in the coastal town of Lovina, then wake early to spot dolphins at sea before touring inland waterfalls, a crater lake temple, and finishing at the clifftop Tanah Lot temple as the sun sets. Includes transport, meals, and hotel accommodation.

What to expect
You'll start pre-dawn with a traditional dance show, then drive northeast through quiet villages to reach the cooler highlands of Kintamani, where you'll eat whilst gazing across volcanic terrain. The overnight stay sits you in Lovina's relaxed beach town atmosphere. Day two kicks off with a motorboat ride searching for dolphins along the north coast—sightings aren't guaranteed but are common. Afterwards, you'll visit a handful of local spots: a waterfall, a lake-set shrine, and eventually the dramatic clifftop temple of Tanah Lot, timed to catch the sunset if weather cooperates. Your English-speaking driver guides each stop rather than just dropping you at car parks.
Good to know
Bring layers for the cooler highlands. Dolphin tours depart early (around 6am) and depend on sea conditions. Temple visits require sarongs, provided free. Weather affects sunset visibility at Tanah Lot. Children under three sit on adult laps; infant seats available on request.
