Three wow moments in one Ubud day. This private outing strings together Tegalalang rice terraces, a jungle swing above the greenery, and two infinity pools at Tlaga Singha with river views—all with door-to-door pickup. It’s designed for big scenery and easy social photos, without you hunting around for the right angles.
I particularly like the Tlaga Singha stop. You get about 3 hours at a riverside pool club with access to two infinity-edge pools, plus a locker and towel and an included drink (beer/wine/soda). I also like the human touch: the tour guide support is real, and a guide named Okta has been specifically praised for making the day smoother and more meaningful.
One consideration: lunch isn’t included. The day runs about 8 to 10 hours, so plan on eating either at the pool club or afterward, and keep your energy up between stops.

Key things to know before you go

- Private door-to-door convenience: pickup and drop-off remove the headache of coordinating Ubud transport.
- Photo-friendly pacing: short, focused time blocks help you hit the main looks without feeling lost.
- d’Alas swing tickets included: you’ll have set time to ride the swing over the rice-and-jungle area.
- Tlaga Singha is the payoff: two infinity-edge pools, river views, lockers, towels, and an included drink.
- Smart casual dress code: it’s relaxed, but you’ll look better if you dress like you planned to be there.
- Age rule for the swing: minimum age is 5 years old.
Why this private Ubud route feels efficient

This tour works because it’s built around three different “types” of Bali beauty. You start with classic rice terrace scenery, then shift into a higher, more dramatic viewpoint with the swing. You finish at a riverside pool club where you can cool off and linger.
That mix is what makes it efficient. Rice terraces are best when the light is right and you can walk a little; the swing is all about one clean moment; Tlaga Singha is about staying in place—swim, relax, repeat.
Best of all, it’s private. You’re not trying to squeeze into other people’s photo lines or get dragged along at someone else’s pace.

Getting there: pickup, timing, and how your guide helps
The day starts at 8:00 am and runs about 8 to 10 hours. For Ubud-area sightseeing, that’s a solid length because it gives enough time for rice terraces, the swing, and a real pool break—without turning the whole day into “drive, wait, drive.”
You’ll have hotel pickup and drop-off, plus a private car and tour guide. In practice, that matters because Ubud traffic and distances can be unpredictable; having a driver assigned means you spend less mental energy figuring things out.
Also, don’t underestimate guide value in a day like this. Okta is an example of the level of help you can expect—supportive, ready to assist, and tuned into what’s worth doing at each stop. When you’re juggling photos, timing, and getting everyone from point A to B, that kind of calm guidance keeps the day fun instead of stressful.
Stop 1: Tegalalang Rice Terrace and the subak irrigation view

Your first stop is Tegalalang Rice Terrace, with about 30 minutes on site and admission included. This area is famous for its rice paddies and for the subak irrigation system, a traditional Balinese cooperative arrangement passed down over time. Even if you’ve seen rice terraces before, the subak idea is the difference-maker: it’s not just scenery—it’s an active system that shaped how these landscapes are used.
What you’ll want from this stop is quick immersion without overcommitting. In 30 minutes, I’d focus on walking to viewpoints that give you layered views of the terraces, then spend a little time framing photos rather than trying to “collect” every angle.
A possible drawback of a shorter time block: you won’t have time for long wandering. If you’re the kind of person who wants to take 60 minutes of slow photos and extra exploring, you might feel slightly rushed. The upside is that the day keeps moving, and you get to the swing and pool without losing your momentum.
Stop 2: d’Alas Swing for high views over rice and jungle

Next up is the d’Alas Swing area in the Tegalalang region. You get about 45 minutes here, and the swing admission ticket is included. The key idea is simple: you’ll rise above the jungle and rice terrace views and use that moment for some of your best photos of the day.
This is one of those experiences where prep beats panic. Wear something comfortable for movement, and keep your phone secure and ready before you go up. Also note the minimum age rule: the jungle swing requires you to be at least 5 years old.
The best part of including this stop is how it changes the “height” of your day. Rice terraces are eye-level beauty. The swing gives you perspective—how the paddies and forest connect—and it creates photos that look like you planned a whole production, even if your route was simple.
Stop 3: Tlaga Singha Bali infinity pools, river views, and your included drink

Tlaga Singha Bali is the main relaxation payoff, with about 3 hours on site. Admission is included, and you’re stepping into a riverside pool club experience built around two infinity-edge swimming pools with tropical river views.
This is where the tour’s value really shows. You’re not paying only for scenery—you’re paying for a proper break. The included setup helps too: locker and towel are part of your ticket, so you’re not hunting for essentials after you change into swimwear.
And yes, the drink is included. You’ll be offered a drink such as beer, wine, or soda at Tlaga Singha. That small detail matters more than you’d think: it turns the pool time into something you can actually enjoy, not just endure while waiting to move on.
What to expect once you arrive at the pool club
The vibe is built for staying. You can float, swim, and re-position for different pool angles because the views keep the background interesting. If you want photos, you’ll likely spend time near the infinity edges where the water line visually disappears into the river.
One more practical point: lunch isn’t included on the tour. If you get hungry at Tlaga Singha (and with 3 hours there, you might), you’ll need to plan for food purchases on site or later. The good news is that the pool-club format usually makes it easy to grab something without leaving the area.
Food, towels, and small comforts that change the whole day

When a tour includes lockers and towels, it reduces friction. You can go from terrace walking to swimming without stressing about what to do with your bag or where to clean up. That kind of convenience is why some tours feel smooth and others feel like a chore.
You’ll also want to keep the included drink in mind as your “buffer.” It’s easy to underestimate how long 8 to 10 hours feels when you’re bouncing between different activities. That drink helps you transition into pool time like it’s part of the plan, not a reward you have to wait for.
Dress-wise, the tour calls for smart casual. That doesn’t mean stiff or formal. It simply means show up looking like you’ll be in public, and pack with the knowledge that you’ll end up swimming at Tlaga Singha. If you’re traveling light, consider how you’ll manage wet items afterward.
Price and value: what $59.80 really covers

At $59.80 per person, the biggest value isn’t just the “things you see.” It’s what’s bundled into that price: entrance tickets, swing admission, Tlaga Singha pool access, a drink, locker and towel, and private car + tour guide.
Let’s break that down in plain terms:
- You’re paying for access to three paid experiences (terraces, swing, and pool club).
- You’re paying for the transport piece so you’re not doing logistics yourself.
- You’re paying for comfort items at Tlaga Singha (locker and towel), plus a drink.
For a day where you’re otherwise likely to spend money on separate admissions and taxis, this package starts to make sense quickly. Also, group discounts and a mobile ticket are included, which can be helpful if you’re traveling with friends or planning to keep everything on your phone.
Timing also suggests you’ll want to book early. This tour is typically booked about 52 days in advance on average. If your dates are flexible, you might still find options later, but booking earlier is usually the safest move when you want a specific day and smooth pickup.
Who should book this (and who might not love it)

This is a great fit for people who want a “great hits” Bali day without the work. If you care about getting iconic shots—rice terraces, a high swing moment, and infinity pools—you’ll appreciate the tight structure.
It also fits couples, small groups, and families with kids who are at least 5 for the swing. The private format means you can focus on what matters to you rather than negotiating around other schedules.
If you’re the type who hates structured time windows, this might feel a little fast. Each stop is fairly timed (30 minutes at the terraces, 45 minutes at the swing, 3 hours at Tlaga Singha), so you won’t have unlimited browsing time everywhere. The day is designed to flow, not to sprawl.
Should you book this Tlaga Singha swing and rice terraces tour?
I’d book it if you want a day that mixes photos with genuine downtime. The infinity pools at Tlaga Singha, the included drink, and the locker-and-towel setup make the end of the day feel worth the effort. Add the swing for a dramatic viewpoint and the Tegalalang rice terraces for classic Bali scenery, and you get a route that feels complete.
I’d think twice if you want long, slow exploration at each site. This is more of a focused itinerary than a wandering day. But if you like clarity—what you’ll do, when you’ll do it, and where you’ll relax afterward—this is a strong choice.
