Bali isn’t just about beaches and temples — it’s also a treasure trove of secret waterfalls that most travelers never get to see. For those craving a more intimate encounter with nature, this private, all-inclusive waterfall tour is a fantastic option. For just $89 per person, you’ll spend about 10 to 11 hours exploring four of Bali’s lesser-known but stunning waterfalls, with personalized attention from your guide, Rhory, Esa, or Made. Pickup is included, as well as lunch and entrance fees, making this a seamless and value-packed adventure.

What we love most about this trip is the chance to avoid Bali’s tourist crowds and instead immerse ourselves in the quiet beauty of the island’s lush highlands. The guides are praised for their friendly demeanor and local knowledge, sharing stories, customs, and even some Bali secrets along the way. The second highlight is the variety — each waterfall offers something unique, from twin cascades to moss-covered rocks and dramatic cliffs perfect for photos.

A possible consideration is the physical activity involved; some hikes are moderate and involve walking through jungle trails. Travelers should be comfortable with light trekking. This tour suits outdoor lovers, families, and photographers seeking authentic Bali experiences away from the busy tourist spots.

If you enjoy nature, stunning scenery, and personalized service, this tour is likely to be a highlight of your Bali visit.

The Itinerary and What to Expect

This tour is designed for those who want to see Bali’s natural beauty beyond the popular tourist sites. Your day begins with convenient pickup in Kuta, after which you’ll be whisked away in private transport to the highlands. This private setup means you move at your own pace, with your guides ready to share stories and answer questions.

Munduk Waterfall

The first stop is Munduk Waterfall, a peaceful retreat surrounded by spice trees and dense rainforest. As we walk past fragrant herbs and lush foliage, the atmosphere instantly cools and relaxes. The waterfall itself is a quiet, scenic cascade, perfect for those who enjoy tranquil natural spots. Reviewers love the fact that Munduk offers a peaceful escape from Bali’s busier areas and that the waterfall is a real hidden gem.

Expect about two hours here, including a walk through the jungle to reach the falls and time for photos. The admission fee is included, so you don’t have to worry about extra costs.

Banyumala Twin Waterfalls

Next, you’ll hike through jungle trails and a blooming hydrangea garden en route to Banyumala Twin Waterfalls. This spot is famous for its dramatic twin cascades pouring into a crystal-clear pool. The walk offers a chance to see Bali’s highland flora and perhaps spot some local birds.

According to reviews, this is a highlight, with visitors describing it as a “hidden paradise” and praising the “stunning” views. The opportunity to dip into the cool waters after the hike makes this a favorite for many. Expect about two hours, with plenty of time for photos and soaking in the scenery.

Banyuwana Amertha Waterfall

The third stop is Banyuwana Amertha — a less-frequented but equally beautiful site with three waterfalls surrounded by lush greenery. One of the most striking features is the moss-covered rocks and natural rock formations, which give the place a mystical feel. Here, water flows gracefully over mossy cliffs, offering fantastic photo ops, especially for nature lovers and photographers.

Your guide will share stories about the local environment and the spiritual significance of water in Bali. Again, around two hours are allotted, including time to explore and photograph.

Leke Leke Waterfall

The final stop, Leke Leke, is a slender stream dropping dramatically between cliffs, creating a picture-perfect scene often featured in Bali postcards. It’s one of the most photogenic and tranquil waterfalls on the tour, with a peaceful atmosphere ideal for reflection or capturing that perfect shot.

This stop concludes the waterfall exploration, giving you ample time to take pictures or simply enjoy the serenity of Bali’s natural magic. The walks are manageable but involve navigating jungle paths, so moderate fitness helps.

The Guides and Their Impact

Throughout the reviews, guides like Rhory, Esa, and Made are described as knowledgeable, friendly, and helpful. Not only do they share local customs and stories, but they also help with photos, making your experience more personal and less stressful.
