Waterfalls, coffee, and ATV in one Ubud day. I like the way this trip stacks three waterfall stops with quick transfers, and I also like the hands-on photo and video help from the guide-driver team (people have specifically praised guides like Su and Sutradana). The main thing to watch is the walking: it’s not a great choice if you’re over 70, since getting to the falls involves walking on uneven ground.
You’ll start with hotel pickup at 08:30 and run a tight 8-hour rhythm, ending back at your hotel after the rice paddy photo time and swing. It’s good value if you’re the type who wants a single day that hits nature, coffee, and action without too much planning on your side—just know that lunch and ATV costs are not included.

Key Highlights You’ll Actually Feel on the Day

- Three different waterfalls in one outing: Tegenungan, Kantolampo, and Tibumana, with short ride legs between them.
- Guide-led photo and video time so you don’t just pose—you get better angles and quick tips while you’re there.
- Coffee plantation visit that fits naturally after the waterfalls, before the more active parts of the day.
- ATV time after coffee, with the important detail that ATV itself isn’t included in the base price.
- Rice paddy photos plus a swing, timed so you can grab that classic Bali-style shot sequence.
How the 8-Hour Rhythm Works (And Why It Matters)

This is a full day that’s built around movement, not lingering. Pickup begins at 08:30, and you’ll want to be in the lobby about 10 minutes early so you don’t slow down the group schedule.
From there, the day is paced with short travel windows: roughly 20 minutes to Tegenungan, then about 15 minutes to Kantolampo, and around 10 minutes onward to Tibumana. After Tibumana, you’ll get lunch, then coffee plantation, then ATV, and finally the rice paddy photo stop before returning to your hotel.
If you prefer relaxed tours where you can spend a long time at one location, this may feel a bit packed. But if you like the “hit the highlights” style—where each stop is its own mini-moment—this layout is a strong match.

Tegenungan Waterfall: Your First Big Photo Moment

Tegenungan is your opening waterfall stop, and it’s set up as a quick win after pickup. The ride is short (about 20 minutes from the hotel area), so you’re not starting the day exhausted.
What you’ll feel here is the visual payoff fast. Waterfall viewing is obviously the focus, but your guide also factors in the practical stuff—timing and positioning for shots and video so you don’t waste time figuring things out on your own.
Practical note: bring your towel. Water + mist + getting in and out of viewing areas is the kind of combination that turns “dry clothes later” into a myth.
Kantolampo Waterfall: A Second View, A Different Vibe

After Tegenungan, you’ll head to Kantolampo in about 15 minutes. This stop matters because you’re not just seeing the same waterfall twice from a slightly different angle—you’re getting a second location with its own composition and photo options.
This is where the day’s “photo help” becomes especially useful. People have praised the guide-driver team for being efficient and helpful with videos and pictures, which is exactly what you want when you’re trying to document the day without standing around.
One more consideration: you’ll still be doing walking to reach the waterfall viewing areas. It’s manageable for many adults, but it’s the reason the tour isn’t recommended for people over 70.
Tibumana Waterfall + Lunch: When the Day Shifts Gears
Tibumana is next, reached in about 10 minutes after Kantolampo. This stop is a good breather in the sequence—still waterfalls, but it changes the scenery again before lunch breaks up the pacing.
Lunch is scheduled after you finish the Tibumana waterfall time. The key detail: lunch is not included in the price, so you’ll want to budget for food and drinks separately. The good side is that it keeps your schedule flexible—you’re not paying for a meal you may not want.
If you’re planning your day around energy, use this point to regroup: you’ve been walking, you’ve been taking photos, and you’ll want to feel ready for the next phase (coffee and ATV).
Coffee Plantation Visit: A Calm Stop Between Action Parts

After lunch, you’ll visit a coffee plantation. This segment is usually where the pacing cools down just enough for you to reset before the more active parts.
Why it’s valuable: it breaks the day into two personalities—waterfall adventure first, then a more cultural and sensory stop. Even if you’re not a “coffee person,” this is a nice way to experience a different side of Bali in the middle of a packed schedule.
The trip includes mineral water, which is handy during the earlier outdoor stops. For anything beyond that, you’ll be handling drinks as part of the “not included” items, so having some cash on hand is smart.
ATV: Worth It for Thrill Seekers, but Plan for the Extra Cost

After coffee, the ATV portion comes next, reached about 30 minutes into the next leg. Here’s the important value check: ATV is not included in the base $32 price.
So you’re really buying the structure of the day—transportation, guide, and the waterfall/coffee/rice-paddy framework—and then you’re paying additional costs for the ATV experience itself when you arrive or as instructed by the operator.
If you do ATV, you’ll want to treat it as the day’s adrenaline peak. Wear practical clothes you don’t mind getting dusty, and keep your towel strategy in mind for after.
Rice Paddy Photos and the Swing: The Classic Ending

After ATV, you’ll head to the rice paddy area. This is the final “wow” visual stop before the return to your hotel.
The rice paddy segment is set up for photo and video opportunities. You’re also given the chance to do a swing there, which is often why this stop gets added to waterfall-and-coffee days in the first place.
This ending works well because it shifts you from “standing and walking around waterfalls” into a more scenic, posed, camera-friendly environment. It’s a good way to close the loop on the day’s theme: nature, views, and getting your photos without rushing to a new location every five minutes.
Anton, Su, Sutradana, and the Photo-First Kind of Guide
One of the best parts of this tour setup is the guide-driver style. The experience provider lists Anton as the driver, and reviews have highlighted guides like Su and Sutradana for being experienced and for explaining traditions in Bali while also helping with photos and videos.
That combo matters because it turns your day from a sequence of stops into something more useful. You’re not just moving around—you’re getting help with timing and interpretation, plus the “how do I get the shot” part while you’re standing there.
In plain terms: you’ll spend less time wondering where to stand and more time actually enjoying the view.
Price and Value: Is $32 a Good Deal for This Day?
At $32 per person, the headline price is low for a full-day plan, but you have to read it correctly. The tour includes:
- hotel pickup and drop-off
- mineral water
It does not include:
- lunch and food/drinks
- ATV
So the real value is in the package: transportation across multiple locations + guide support + the key scenic stops (three waterfalls, coffee plantation, rice paddy with swing time).
If you already know you want to do ATV, this can still be a good deal because you’re bundling the day’s driving and scheduling. If you don’t want ATV or you’re trying to keep costs tight, then the base price may feel less impressive once you add lunch, drinks, and ATV charges.
What to Bring (And What to Leave Behind)
This day is simple, but a few items will make it easier.
Bring:
- passport or ID card
- towel
- cash
Why cash matters: lunch, drinks, and ATV are not included. You’ll want the option to pay without scrambling.
Not allowed:
- luggage or large bags
- alcohol and drugs
Also plan your day around being active. You’ll be walking to reach waterfall viewing areas, and that’s where the “not good for above 70” note comes into play.
Who This Tour Fits Best
This is a strong fit if you want:
- a fast, structured day with multiple scenery hits
- a guide who helps with photo and video results
- waterfalls plus rice paddy photos, with coffee and ATV layered in
It may not be the best fit if:
- you need long sit-down breaks between stops
- you’re over 70 due to the walking involved at the waterfalls
- you prefer tours where meals and major activities are fully included in one price (because lunch and ATV are separate)
Quick Booking Advice: Decide Like a Smart Local
Before you book, do a quick reality check: can you comfortably handle multiple short rides plus walking at waterfall stops? If yes, you’ll likely love how much you get done in one day.
Also check your budget for what’s missing. Lunch, drinks, and ATV are the add-ons that change the final number.
If you want a single-day “greatest hits” Ubud plan—waterfalls, coffee plantation time, ATV, and the rice paddy swing photo set—this tour’s structure is built for you.
