Our Top Traveller’s Essentials
Backpack – Osprey Farpoint 40 – This backpack is a staple amongst many travellers! Being a lot cheaper than the luxury brands, this is a quality backpack from a well known brand. It boasts quality durability, is lightweight with a great framework and is a great option for most people! This backpack has a hip strap to help carry the bag, a breathable harness strap, and comes in multiple colours!
Compression Packing Cubes – Compression cubes are our favourite packing accessory! These cubes are similar to the normal packing cubes, but feature a compression zip, meaning you can compress your clothes down… this makes packing easier, limits the space you are using, and means more room for souvenirs etc!
Powerbank – Don’t lose power when travelling! It isn’t always guaranteed to find charging ports, so we would always suggest carrying a spare power bank, just incase you do run low on power when you need it!
Universal Travel Plug Adapter – Most backpackers/travellers visit multiple countries during one trip. And that means it isn’t guaranteed you will be using the same plug head during each place. A universal plug is great as it lets you switch between each plug head style all in one item! We love ours, it has USB slots meaning multiple items can be charged at once.

Thailand is a beautiful, scenic country full of amazing experiences that we believe everyone should see. You can really do almost everything here from see amazing natural sea life to venturing in the mountains or going off grid in the national parks. You really have it all and it totally makes sense why it’s some people’s favourite country to visit. Seeing Elephants were a massive highlight during this trip!
For us, it’s a place we see ourselves exploring and exploring until we see every inch of the country… but we know it would take a long time.
Thailand is very rich in their array of animals and boost amazing diversity across the animal kingdom. From the Indochinese Tigers, to giant lizards, whale sharks, many types of monkey and the infamous Asian elephant!

Asian Elephants Background
Asian Elephants are found across Asia, with the majority of the population being in India and Sri Lanka, and the rest found across Myanmar, Laos, Cambodia and Thailand. These elephants are much smaller than their Africa counterparts, standing at roughly 7 – 10 feet tall at the shoulder; with African elephants towering at 8 – 13 feet at the shoulder.
These species are similar but have some distinct differences between the two. These include the size; Asian elephants are known to be quite a bit smaller as we have stated above. Also, the Asian elephants have a distinct one “finger” trunk whereas African elephants have 2. This means that African elephants can almost pinch objects as a grabbing motion whereas you may see Asian elephants roll their trunk to grab an object. The other main differences are the head shape, the Asian elephant having two bulb like shapes on the top of their head and they are different, round-shaped ears which are smaller than their African descendants.
Asian Elephants Protection
Unfortunately, Asian Elephants are used in various different ways for money or entertainment, which means the number of wild Asian elephants have been in decline for many years. We would ALWAYS urge people to visit these animals and be loving and respectful towards them, and only support organisations that have the animals best interests at heart.
Usually, these elephants will be used for tourists to ride them, or use them in construction when moving large objects out the way. When doing this, they are not treated well and are manipulated to complete their task. If you are to visit any area that does promote this we would urge you avoid this tourist trap, as it is harmful to the elephants and only promotes locals to carry on with this sad activity.
The elephants are still used in circuses across these countries where they are taught to dance, climb, and perform in front of a crowd. During their routines they would be whipped or beaten into submission so they complete their performance for the crowds and again is such a sad story to hear. We have first hand experienced some elephants who have been beaten and abused so bad that they are forever impacted by their torture and still act out “dance routines” out of fear on being beaten once more. More on this later on in the blog.
In both instances, we would never recommend anyone to part take in animal exploitation and would always point people to visit organisations that support these beautiful animals. Below we have highlighted some of the amazing organisations and opportunities to marvel at these beautiful creatures.
How to see Elephants in Thailand
Elephant Jungle Sanctuary
In Phuket and Chiang Mai is a sanctuary which have always supported abused, exploited and mistreated elephants from all walks of life. When you visit this sanctuary you are taught how to safely move around these amazing animals and give them the respect they deserve.
When visiting, you get half a day or a full day depending on what package you choose, and have an itinerary packed full of amazing things. In the morning, you are picked up from your stay, and taken to where the Elephants are free to roam. The elephants are allowed to wander across the many acres of land that is protected by the sanctuary as they wish, but are usually hovering by the food as expected.
Upon arrival you will see elephants wandering and hovering around the food spots anticipating their lunch. You are given an introduction of the day and given the rules from the sanctuary. Each elephant has their carer, and they prepare the food they eat for lunch which you and the volunteers for the day will be feeding the elephants. The food will either be vegetables or fruit mixed in rice that is shaped into balls or local bananas. These are the elephants favourites and you can grab the food as you wish and feed it when ever elephant you wish!
As someone who has only done it once (so far), it can be daunting feeding them due to sheer size of them but after a few times you will become more comfortable with the gentle giants. You can go round and meet all the elephants and you can speak with volunteers at the sanctuary who will inform you of the name of the elephant, the history of each elephant and their experiences.
Unfortunately, most of the elephants have some sad stories and we will give you an example below just to show what some of these amazing creatures go through and how important it is to support these animals.
The elephants can be very food orientated so don’t take too long and ‘tease’ the elephants with the food as they will look to try and grab it from you. The best way to feed them is to hold it in front of them and they will use their trunk and their ‘finger’ to wrap around the food which they will then drop it in their mouth. Don’t worry, the elephants eat the banana peels so don’t think about peeling it for them!
At the sanctuary, there is a photographer that will go around and take photos of you and the elephants which you can get at the end of the day to remember your experience by.
The end of the feeding will lead you to grabbing some food and meeting the people in your group while the elephants go off with their owners and get ready for their mud bath.
You get homemade local food which you can have a hand in making for the rest of the group if you wish. Lunch will be a spread of local foods and fruit which you can help yourself to so get ready for a hearty lunch! The food is amazing and really is flavourful, you will not be disappointed!
After lunch, you are to get ready to get mucky!! The elephants will be in a large natural mud bath which you will be joining them. It’s better than it sounds trust us! So you need to get your trunks on and then meet the elephants in there.
The activity is grabbing a bucket and chucking it on the elephants. Make sure to stay away from the back of the elephants as they can be unpredictable and obviously they cannot see you so you definitely don’t want to be sat on! The aim is to cover the elephants (other than their face) in mud. The elephants love the attention and mud and will like to try and roll about and even spray mud on themselves (and even you). The elephants will definitely show reveal their personality and once they are all covered, they are shown to the natural waters where they are scrubbed down and washed.
Here you are given a scrubber and the elephants will let you scrub them on the sides and the top of the head which is very nice for them. We had some older elephants aged around 70/80 who were still playing and grabbing the edges of the bank and swinging in the waters. They would dunked their heads under and grab the weeds out the pool.
It’s beautiful to see the elephants enjoy themselves and live a simple life where they can be themselves. The experience is truly beautiful and was definitely one of the top highlights of our trip!

Elephant’s Sad Story
One of the elephants who we believe was roughly 30 years of age was previously owned and was a part of a circus who would travel the country. The Elephant would be taught simple tricks and dances and during rehearsals , the elephants would be whipped, abused, & beaten so they would complete the dance/trick and make no mistakes. These elephants then develop these actions into their personalities and unfortunately it becomes them. The elephant we talk about was 8-10 years rescued but would always sway in a dancing motion and would NEVER stop. After speaking with the carer, the elephant will NEVER stop this movement as the swaying (dancing) will mean they are not beaten and the elephant isn’t aware that it is safe from these horrible people and if it was to stop, nothing would happen. Unfortunately it is engrained into them and has become apart of their personality which is upsetting to hear. However, these sanctuaries are the best places for them and they are looked after really well.
Elephant Watching in the Wild
Kuiburi National Park
In Kuiburi National Park you get to see wild elephants! It’s only open from 2pm – 6pm so make sure to visit the park beforehand to maximise your chances to see the elephants. You are in a safari and drive around the park with a ranger who will find the elephants and keep you at a safe distance to observe the elephants in their natural habitat. Usually this is roughly 50-100 metres away so you don’t disturb them so make sure to bring some binoculars to get the most out of the trip! If you forget binocular’s or don’t own any, don’t worry! You can rent binoculars for roughly 100 baht.
When visiting the park, you are required to pay a national park fee which is roughly 200 Baht for an adult plus the cost of a ticket. The reason they charge this is because it’s attached to the Kaeng Krachan National Park which the elephants are able to free roam. It’s a great location to see elephants as the park has thin jungles great for visibility but also has over 200 elephants thriving in this habitat.
Khao Sok National Park
Here is the location we would recommend to see elephants!! There is no guarantee to see elephants here as they can be quite rare but trust me, if you do get so see them, it is totally worth it. Not only do you have the chance to see elephants in their natural habitat but you are also on a massive lake and there is a whole experience to the park. Beyond seeing the elephants, you are to stay on floating bungalows, go on hikes to look for elephants and so much more!
It’s an experience that we would definitely recommend for anyone! In the morning on our way out of the park we stopped at a popular elephant viewing spot and found a mother elephant and her calf coming down to the waterfront. Time really stood still and it was such a majestic experience. We sat there for what felt like hours just admiring the beauty. We felt so lucky to experience this and if you manage to get this lucky then you will never regret it! To learn more about the full Khao Sok National Park experience you can visit our designated blog here.
Seeing Elephants in Thailand
There are many ways of seeing these beautiful animals in Thailand, but we would always recommend to look at the all the ethical ways. Make sure to do your research to which sanctuaries across Thailand are actually ethical as many will try to market as ethical to bring in more people. There are many sanctuaries to choose from for this and we may even do a blog post soon so you have all the options at your disposal.
Many people dream of seeing elephants so do make it top of your itinerary when you are visiting Thailand, you won’t regret it!

Morocco is unique country located in the north west of Africa where the Mediterranean and Atlantic meet. The country is full of history and antique architecture that dates back thousands of years; and is a staple in the countries rich culture today. Rabat is one city that really encapsulates this!
There’s many reasons to travel to this beautiful country including the beaches, activities, food and more! The city can be split into two parts- one side of the city is very much full of all the locals with small street and riad stays; and the other is very much city-like. Large architecture and government buildings, with high-end shopping malls and food spots.
When visiting this beautiful city we spent a total of 3 days/2 nights here and probably would recommend an extra day just so you can experience more of the city and the exciting activities here!

Activities in Rabat
As the country is full of history, your trip HAS to include trips to historical spots which have stood for many centuries!
Kasbah Des Oudaias
This castle-like structure was build in the 12th century and was a form of defence from any unexpected ships visiting Rabat. The mosque boasted many cannons and a tall wall to fend off enemies, and created a scary operation for those who manned it.
Within the walls is delicately placed streets where people used to live when the old King designed and erected the mosque. It’s a beautiful spot of history located perfectly by the waterfront offering some amazing views and is a popular spot to visit. Within the walls there were gardens created which offer a great place to soak up the places natural beauty and enjoy the warm weather in Rabat. The buildings inside have been maintained the best they can without removing the authentic history of when it was built them many years ago.
Hassan Tower
This amazing structure was build for in the 12th century which is famously unfinished (known as the unfinished mosque). The Mosque includes a scattering of tall pillars that are placed all around which was meant to hold a roof when the building was fully completed. Due to the King Passing, the mosque completion was stopped and left this mosque and what was the tallest minaret in the world halted for construction.
The Minaret still stands tall today and can be admired from hundreds of feet away as it’s so large! When visiting new countries it’s always good to learn more about the history and this would be a great way to embrace Moroccan culture.
Rabat Old Town
The old town is a beautiful area of Rabat and is full of culture and locals enjoying food, selling their trade and socialising. The best thing to do is wander the tight streets and marvel at the amazing handcrafted products from locals. The streets are perfect to get lost in, and are surrounded by old fashioned Riad buildings that have been standing for centuries.
This is the perfect place to grab a cheap lunch. You have choices of local wraps, pastries, pitas and more with some delicious sweet treats including an infinite selection of Baklava. The locals here are super friendly, and are happy to help guide you in the direction you are going or provide you with the best service.
At the top of the old town is the local graveyard which must span at least a few Kilometres long and is full of gravestones. It’s a strange place to have a graveyard as it is only a stones throw from the beach but it provides a beautiful and harmonic spot to watch the sunset over the water with the graveyard visible.
Day at the beach
Being a coastal capital, it definitely has it’s choice of beaches. The beaches here are a mix between stony or sandy depending on how lucky you are, and is a beautiful way to spend the day. On the beach just across from the Kasbah Des Oudaias is a quaint sandy beach which isn’t too popular, but is perfect to relax at and watch the world go by.
At this beach there are some great activities including jet skiing, surfing and some cool water sports which are offered on the beach front. On this beach there is also restaurant that is a great place to stop and grab some food. As you are on the Atlantic, the water isn’t quite as warm as you’d like so be preparred! Also, the walk to the beach is straight downhill so walking back up will be hilly.
Mausoleum of Mohammad V
This is the burial site of King Mohammad V who died in 1961 and the Mausoleum was build in his honour. This is a cultural site which is open for people to visit and marvel at the beauty of this structure. It is built out of many rare materials, and stands out with it’s white-like colour and perfectly carved patterns.
Standing beside the mausoleum is a white pavilion with a green emerald-like roof. The site is a great place to learn about the culture of Morocco and see some the countries most important sites.
Mohammad VI Museum of Modern & Contemporary Art
This is the perfect spot for any art enthusiasts. Located in the heard of Rabat, is the modern and Contemporary Art which boasts many top artworks of African heritage. These include a selection of paintings and sculptures which will catch anyone’s eye.
The building is rather large and will keep you occupied for at least a few hours.
Explore the Ancient Chellah
This is a must visit in Rabat and really is a timeless historical gem in Rabat. This area is a large part of the roman empire’s surge into north Africa where they set up an impressive home for themselves mirroring what home would look like in 1 BC in Europe. Around the 11th – 14th century, Marinid’s occupied the roman grounds and turned it into a necropolis for its people for their most elite members.
The blend of ancient romans and the Marinid’s has created unique architecture and a place like no other in the world. The site is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and occupies some luscious gardens which is calming. This is a great place to learn more about two civilisations who occupied these same grounds many centuries apart.
Places to stay in Rabat
There’s so many recommendations we could provide but we feel the best way to experience Moroccan culture is by booking a traditional Riad which is dotted throughout Rabat. With this, we would also recommend booking in person as it’s cheaper and Riad’s don’t tend to update their bookings online so even if you do they may not have room (happened to us).
If you don’t feel comfortable booking in person and want the security of booking online, then we would recommend these stays below:
This is the hostel Riad we stayed in and is perfectly located in Rabat. You are a 10 minute walk to the beach and the Kasbah Des Oudaias while being perfectly on the old town where you can grab snacks and local foods in seconds!! The owner was super friendly and also provided free wifi for anyone staying. As with most Riad’s they offered free Moroccan tea whenever you would like.
Unfortunately breakfast wasn’t provided but you were so close to food spots it definitely wasn’t a problem!
This is a top rated Hostel in the centre of the Medina and local to many things to do in Rabat. The Hostel has a shared kitchen if you would like to use it and free WIFI and a balcony to enjoy the busy medina! The rooms are spacious and provide a good place to rest before venturing out for another jam-packed day of activities.
The cost of a room is £22 with a double bed allowing for 2 guests per room. This is a good price for the location and amenities you get with this stay!
Alternatively, if you want to stay in a hotel, you can! This hotel is central in the Medina and comes with communal seating areas to enjoy and even an indoor swimming pool! So after a long day exploring the vibrant city you can come back and enjoy a dip to relax.
The hotel costs £64 per room (each room is for 2 people) and even includes a hearty breakfast.

Our Top Traveller’s Essentials
Backpack – Osprey Farpoint 40 – This backpack is a staple amongst many travellers! Being a lot cheaper than the luxury brands, this is a quality backpack from a well known brand. It boasts quality durability, is lightweight with a great framework and is a great option for most people! This backpack has a hip strap to help carry the bag, a breathable harness strap, and comes in multiple colours!
Compression Packing Cubes – Compression cubes are our favourite packing accessory! These cubes are similar to the normal packing cubes, but feature a compression zip, meaning you can compress your clothes down… this makes packing easier, limits the space you are using, and means more room for souvenirs etc!
Powerbank – Don’t lose power when travelling! It isn’t always guaranteed to find charging ports, so we would always suggest carrying a spare power bank, just incase you do run low on power when you need it!
Universal Travel Plug Adapter – Most backpackers/travellers visit multiple countries during one trip. And that means it isn’t guaranteed you will be using the same plug head during each place. A universal plug is great as it lets you switch between each plug head style all in one item! We love ours, it has USB slots meaning multiple items can be charged at once.

Costa Rica is a country full of adventure, experiences, and lots of fun activities! Deep in Manuel Antonio you will find this experience that is sure to help you make lifelong memories! The Monteverde ziplining and Tarzan swing experience is one you need to make a guarantee on your Costa Rica itinerary!
*This post contains affiliate links, which we may earn from. This does not come at an additional cost, but helps us to pursue this dream 🙂
This ziplining and tarzan swing tour is one to remember! Enjoy the adrenaline rush as you zipline through the Monteverde forest, being thrown out into picturesque views for miles. Included in the trip is multiple ziplines, including different styles such as the superman line! There are many hikes to each spot, meaning you can soak in your surroudings, alongside an epic 148ft tarzan swing at the end!
Part of the famous Monteverde cloud forest, this trip isn’t one for the feint of heart! You will face non-stop thrills, meaning this trip may not be suitable to everyone.
You are given a full safety demonstration and safety equipment, meaning you can learn the main skills needed to enjoy this adrenaline-lovers activity!
There are many places online to book this tour, however, we booked this oneand we would highly recommend! All activites were included too (including the tarzan swing which is sometimes classed as additional)!
You simply give your accommodation name/location, and get ready for your fun adventure!
What’s included in the Monteverde Trip
Included in the trip is around 10 ziplines throughout the Monteverde canopies, experience a superman flight, take on latin America’s longest and highest zipline, then enjoy the high tarzan swing!
We were collected from ourhostel accommodation, then taken to the adventure park, ready for our safety demonstration and equipment!
Our Experience at the Tour
We can honestly say we loved it! Aimee’s health has been up and down, so her fitness levels weren’t ‘usual’, and this is a trip where we would definitely having good fitness levels due to the fitness demand. There are many steep hills to walk up (you are in the forest!!), meaning if you aren’t fit this may be a struggle! Mix this in with the hot Costa Rican sunshine and humidity… it can be a struggle for sure! We did manage to see wild macaws which was so amazing.
We met two lovely women from Canada who we ended up going for lunch with whilst on this trip, and everyone was in agreement it was great! We had beautiful conversations with these women, and was a highlight of our trip. Sadly, one of them hit a weight restriction issue, meaning she wasn’t able to partake in the Tarzan swing for safety issues.
Advice for this Monteverde Trip
Our top tips are make sure you are well hydrated and full, however, maybe leave a gap between food and these activities! Make sure you read all of the safety advice and pre-requirements, as things like heart health and weight could cause issues (and we would hate for anyone to experience that upset).
The tarzan swing is an extremely intimidating experience, one we almost both stopped doing! However, were both very glad we went ahead with it! The adrenaline rush is very real, and makes for a fun end to the tour!
Is it worth it?
Yes!! We would always highly recommend this tour, and was of our main highlights of our Costa Rica trip! The prices can seem high, but realistically Costa Rica travel isn’t budget friendly, and the cost is similar to other activities across Costa Rica!

Bali is such a busy place for travellers and backpackers to visit that you often get caught up with the crowds. On the island there is so much to do and see that you can often get overwhelmed with the options. Do you head west to Canggu which is a surfers paradise? Or east to the party islands? Or maybe stay central in the small authentic town of Ubud? The island of Bali has so many locations that offers scenic views and adventurous activities so it’s easy to miss the small things! This is Aling Aling Waterfall, and is a place to check out for sure!
*This post contains affiliate links, which we may earn from. This does not come at an additional cost, but helps us to pursue this dream 🙂
Aling Aling Waterfalls
When doing initial research of Bali we can conclude that many don’t listAling-Aling Waterfallsat top of the itinerary but for us we would put it on there for sure. It’s location is isolated but is located roughly 30 minutes south of Lovina which is a popular spot to swim with wild dolphins! Be sure to check out our best spots in Ubud here to get the best itinerary for that part of the island.
Many seem to not notice the wonder that is Aling-Aling waterfalls and merely pass by it when visiting Lovina. However, we would totally recommend visiting and seeing the natural wonder hidden deep in the mountains.
Finding and Entering Aling Aling
This waterfall is a hidden wonder of Bali, off a mountain road and has 3 main cliff jumping points, and 1 natural water slide. At the site there is a large car park and an entrance fee of roughly £8 per person if you want a guide to take you, or £2 without a guide. Please note that if you don’t take a guide you are not able to swim or enjoy the natural waterslide or cliff jumps- and will be fined if you are caught.
The actual Aling-Aling waterfall doesn’t allow swimming or cliff jumping as it sits at roughly 200 metres which is far too high for us!! However, there are set locations which allow this with a 5 metre platform and a swimming area at the base of a natural waterslide. The waterslide is very simple. You sit at the top of the fall which is roughly 10 metres up and you slide down the rocks which is softened by the flow of water before dunking in the beautiful pool below
The Aling Aling Waterfall Experience
The 5 metre jump is perfect for people who aren’t too confident in heights (or water) and is an easy ledge to practice on! The slide seems scarier but once you do it, you are likely to want to ride it again! Below is the slide in action!
Further down the stream, you have higher cliff spots which are perfect for adrenalin junkies and confident jumpers. When we experienced these falls the weather really challenged us with torrential rain and flooding but this didn’t stop us from completing these jumps! The first cliff jump which is 10 metres was personally the hardest and is a simple leap from a ledge into the waters below.
The 2 further cliff jumping locations were 15 metres but looked the same as the 10 metre. There was only one slight difference minus the height difference. The 1st 15 metre jump required you to leap away from the side to avoid overhanging rocks before reaching the pool below. This is a hard thing to commit to but make sure to jump outwards! At each activity location there are steps so you can make your way back up to the jumping spot again or to watch your friendly make the leap!
We didn’t make our way to the final jumping spot due to the weather but as it was the same height it didn’t matter too much. The location is in the heart of the mountains, in the jungle so be aware of your footing as it is all natural terrain.
Usually this activity would take around 1/2 hours to enjoy and just beside the waterfall car park is a local place serving food which is a great place to grab a meal after all that jumping you did! It serves local food with the usual amazing flavours.
For us, this is an activity we would definitely recommend to anyone visiting Bali as it’s got everything! Adventure, beauty, nature, hiking. It’s a perfect way to spend half a day while travelling the island. We would recommend hiring a taxi to Aling-Aling if there is a group of you. If you are an individual or just you and a friend, you can also hire bikes and head there if you are confident in your motor skills!
We hope you enjoyed our experience and would love to know your thoughts on Aling-Aling waterfalls and if you would dare to jump the 15 metres!

Ubud is a secluded town located in central Bali and is known for it’s traditional lifestyle and setting. It’s not party like Gili T, or social like Canggu, but rather calm and old-fashioned in it’s look. Here you will find traditional areas and food spots to enjoy the local parts of what Bali has to offer.
This being said, there’s still so much to do. It’s definitely a location you would need to spend a few days at to make the most of the activities available. We would recommend 3/4 days here and it’s a place you cannot afford to miss! The activities are endless, and the food is to die for… so be sure to add this to your Bali plans!

Ubud Travel Guide
Activities in Ubud
There are a range of activities that cover many interests so be sure to give yourself enough time to enjoy all Ubud has to offer!
Mount Batur
This is such an amazing experience that a lot of people tend to skip due to the length of the activity. You get to hike up an active volcano.. what more do you want??
The day will start of super early! Earlier than you think- at roughly 2 am for pick-up (depending where you are staying)! From here, you head towards the base of the mountain but stop off for breakfast on the way. It’s not a traditional breakfast but you will be offered tea or coffee and a fried banana for energy. As you relax, it’ll give you time to meet the people you will be hiking with. You then head off to the base of the volcano and begin your ascend. The initial climb is a long stretch of road that becomes steep and then you are to head up some steep steps.
The climb is likely to take 2/3 hours with time taken waiting for people to climb ahead. Unfortunately it can become somewhat congested with people when going up. However, when you get to the top it really feels like it’s just you up there. There’s so many viewpoints to choose from and when you get to the top you are perfectly in time for sunrise. This is the whole reason you wake up at 2am!
The views are absolutely stunning and that’s even on a cloudy day. Once you have taken photos and soaked up the beautiful views, you can head up further to the absolute top and see if from there! Be cautious as there are wild monkeys that live on the volcano and can be aggressive if provoked. The best way to deal with them would be to ignore them and keep your distance where possible.
At the top you will take an hour to soak up your surroundings and more importantly catch your breath and get ready to descend the volcano! Now this is the fun part!
At the top you are shown to a naturally heated spot where the volcano spurts warm gases and heats up the rocks. You can spend time here and the local guides will provide some cool information on how this happens! After this, you head across a narrow strip at the top which is no more than 2 feet wide at points with no rocks to keep your balance with your hands. So be careful!!
Once the scary part is over, the fun begins! The majority of the descent is down through hard grains which is almost like sand. Most people spent their time almost skiing down in their shoes which is much better than walking in our opinion!
The hike is a must and and really offers so much more than the views at the top (even though they are spectacular!). On the way back you are likely to stop off at the coffee plantation and you get the opportunity try many flavours of coffee. It’s not necessary the best thing to do after a long morning climbing a volcano as many would like to just go back and relax but the types of coffee available is awesome with loads of different flavours. These include avocado, coconut and honeycomb to name a few! Find the sunrise hike here.
Jewellery making class
This is a great opportunity to take something away that will always remind you of your travels or of the beautiful place of Ubud! You get to go to a jewellery making class which you are shown the steps to make your own designs and given the materials which is included in the price. If you make simpler designs, you may even be able to make 2/3 types of rings for any family members you want to gift them to!
They help you melt the silver and manipulate it so that it is ready to be cut and designed as you wish!
It’s such an amazing experience and is a great way to make a sentimental gift for yourself or someone important that isn’t just bought at a local market. It’s a design that you have created and the perfect way to round of your trip in Ubud! Just make sure to not book up that day as it’s a 3 hour slot to complete, and you will need most of that time to finish your jewellery. Unfortunately we booked to leave early that day so had to cut our time short on our jewellery making class. Find agreat class here.
Monkey Forest
The Monkey Forest is a popular spots for travellers and visitors when going to Ubud. It’s a forest located right on the edge the town which is home to many monkey that are allowed to roam freely throughout the forest and even into the town. Now, this has caused many problems with the monkey being hit by traffic and also going into shops and restaurants looking for food.
When visiting the park, it’s super important to be aware of your surroundings and keep anything small in a bag or left at your accommodation. This includes food! The monkeys have come accustom to people bringing food into the forest and now see us as providers of food. They will check your body (including pockets and your bag to see if they can find food. One even tried to open our backpack in search for food.
It’s such a beautiful forest which is well maintained for the monkeys and have some amazing spots to enjoy and take photos. However, we would recommend to respect the monkeys privacy and do not approach any monkey and if a monkey does approach, to slowly move aware safely. A lot of people forget these are wild animals and they deserve their privacy.
The park has some luscious walks and some cool bridges you can cross where you can get some amazing photos of the monkeys in all sorts of places. It truly is a cool place to visit to see how the monkeys live. Find a full guided tour here.
Local Markets
In Ubud there is a local market that is in the heart of the town and is a very traditional market. It’s relatively small but offers many handmade items that locals have handcrafted. The prices are affordable as it’s not a popular one for travellers to visit but the quality is there! The market has woodwork, mini statues and an assortment of clothing!
After visiting all the busy and energy zapping activities in Ubud, there’s no better way to relax than strolling through markets and looking at some local stalls!
Campuhan Ridge Walk
This is a very popular trail located a 10/15 minute walk from the centre of Ubud. It takes roughly 1/2 hours to walk the trail there and back so be sure to take your walking boots. On the trail, there is no shade from the sun so if you are to do this on a warm day, make sure to go early in the morning or later in the afternoon when its a little cooler.
The walk provides stunning views and has a tall single palm tree located on it’s path which provides great photo opportunity! We would recommend to walk the trail in the morning just after sunrise (or at sunrise if you can) or just before sunset to get the best views from the trail.
Kecak Fire Show
There is a local temple in Ubud that hosts shows almost every night for spectators to watch and enjoy. The shows are usually in the evening and boast local dances and songs. The fire show is a great way to wind down and spend the evening after you have just eaten and it will help you learn more of the local culture of Indonesia!
The show is placed in a traditional setting with the seating area likely to be stone blocks so don’t expect luxury! It’s a truly unique experience and one we would recommend for all to do!
Tegallanang Infinity pool and rice terraces
These infinity pools are a staple for Ubud and a really popular place for travellers and tourists. They have a number of pools located on the side of the building offering luscious views of rice fields, statues and so much more!
They have a few bars which you can enjoy some cocktails and order food to enjoy by the pools. There’s a lot of seating options available including seating towards in the pools overlooking the scenic views.

There’s also bridges with water running through creating a peaceful aroma and it’s a place you can relax in for the day when you need a much earned rest!
The entrance fee is pretty cheap but the food and drinks inside are more expensive than most places in the area so be prepared to pay for that! You also can’t take any food or drink in which is important to know beforehand. Find this tour, where you can visit the Tegallanang Rice Terraces, waterfalls and a jungle swing!
Saraswati Temple
Sarawati is a local temple in the centre of Ubud that boasts some beautiful statues and water gardens. It is known as the underwater palace and has some of the best stone carvings across Bali. It’s home to some amazing artwork and even has a lotus garden which is great for capturing the best photos.
As with many locations, it would be best to visit first thing in the morning to avoid crowds or later in the afternoon. As it is a popular temple, you may find yourself in a busy temple if you don’t plan ahead when visiting. It’s a amall temple which you can walk through within 30 minutes but it’s completely free to visit.
Teganungan Waterfall
Teganungan waterfall is located around 30 minutes south of Ubud in a remote area of Bali. It’s one of the larger waterfalls in the central Bali area being 15 metres tall! There is a fee to entering the area but it is only roughly £1.50 or 20,000 Indonesian Rupiah.
There are some perfectly placed seating or bird nests that are used by travelers to get good photos with the waterfall in the background. You are allowed to go right up to the waterfall and swim in the waters below which is a great way to relax in such a tranquil place. If you aren’t fancying a swim, you can head up on the terraces to grab food with jaw dropping views of the waterfall.
These restaurants are slightly more expensive than local Bali restaurants but they have cheaper alternatives elsewhere on the complex. As it’s a popular spot, it’s likely to get busier the closer you get to lunchtime so if you want to avoid the crowds, it’s best to get there bright and early!
Places to eat in Ubud
There are many food options in Ubud that you can explore. They have a good range of different restaurants with some tasty authentic Indonesian restaurants!
Taco Cartel
This is a Mexican lunch spot that is like a takeout. There is seating but it is a rather small shop that does lovely tasting food! They offer the traditional Mexican choices such as tacos, burritos, and quesadillas.
They even offer deals such a each taco being 19 Indonesian Rupiah for lunch (as of October 2022). The food is cooked in front of you as they have an open kitchen. You can watch the chefs cook your food from scratch! The food from Taco Cartel is super flavourful and offered at a decent price compared to other locations. Our Favourite was the Pork Burrito which is super filling and comes with a lovely spicy sauce to enjoy. However, on the menu is a monster wet burrito which is perfect if you are starving and love a hearty meal!
They offer burgers and other grill type meals which look super good.
Rayjin Ubud
This is a beautiful Japanese food spot that you can’t miss out on! It is known for being a budget-friendly yet tasty Japanese restaurant, you can expect a delightful culinary experience without breaking the bank.

Sushi rolls are crafted with care, offering combinations of fresh fish, crisp vegetables, and tangy rice, all wrapped in delicate seaweed.
Donburi bowls provide hearty portions of seasoned rice topped with succulent cuts of teriyaki chicken, beef, or tofu, drizzled with a sweet and savoury sauce. Despite the modest prices, the quality of ingredients and the authenticity of flavours make each meal satisfying and memorable. The cosy, casual ambiance and friendly service further enhance the dining experience, making it a perfect spot for a delicious and affordable Japanese meal. It’s a stunning restaurant located in the heart of Ubud and one you must visit!
Bebek Bengil
This is a traditional restaurant that is bursting full of flavour. It’s a popular spot in Ubud providing high quality foods that is authentic Indonesian delicacies such as the Crispy Duck. The food is reasonably priced and the food is more-ish for people to return back to the restaurant the next day.
The food is certainly persuasive but the views out from the restaurant boast a scenery that not many restaurants in the area can compete with. They have luxurious views of local rice fields and nature creating the perfect experience for food lovers!
Cafe Lotus

Our Top Traveller’s Essentials
Backpack – Osprey Farpoint 40 – This backpack is a staple amongst many travellers! Being a lot cheaper than the luxury brands, this is a quality backpack from a well known brand. It boasts quality durability, is lightweight with a great framework and is a great option for most people! This backpack has a hip strap to help carry the bag, a breathable harness strap, and comes in multiple colours!
Compression Packing Cubes – Compression cubes are our favourite packing accessory! These cubes are similar to the normal packing cubes, but feature a compression zip, meaning you can compress your clothes down… this makes packing easier, limits the space you are using, and means more room for souvenirs etc!
Powerbank – Don’t lose power when travelling! It isn’t always guaranteed to find charging ports, so we would always suggest carrying a spare power bank, just incase you do run low on power when you need it!
Universal Travel Plug Adapter – Most backpackers/travellers visit multiple countries during one trip. And that means it isn’t guaranteed you will be using the same plug head during each place. A universal plug is great as it lets you switch between each plug head style all in one item! We love ours, it has USB slots meaning multiple items can be charged at once.
