Can anyone recommend me a hotel in Ubud which somewhat look like those in Tegal Sari? (The Link). The rates should be around USD40 to USD50. Thanks in advance.

The Wooden room for Tegal Sari is fully booked, only Deluxe are available, should i take that? Or should I take Bale Sukat Bali from Greenfield?

Hi all, Im going to Bali this Nov 16th. 5D/4N trip.

I will be staying at Kuta for 2N and after that at Ubud for 2N. I read thru all the post but still bit blur. So I need some recommendation.

I reach there at noon, so probly will hang out in Kuta itself. Any nice eating place in Kuta place itself? Preferbly non-high class. Wanna try out some local delicacy. Dirty duck in Kuta rite?

What should I do while Im in Kuta? Which place should I visit while Im there? Such as Kintamani, Tanah Lot and etc? And also where should I visit while Im in Ubud?

My friend recommend me water rafting but he forgot the name of the place. Any ideas which one I should go?

Thanks for any suggestion or recommendation.

I wouldnt want spend much time in Kuta itself, thats why Im looking where to go while im in Kuta for 2 and a half days and the rest in Ubud. So I think I should visit those places that are nearer to them.

I did email the driver i got from this thread, but not sure if he ever check his mail. Im just scare that I wont be able to get him by phone when i reach there or he might be fully book for that duration.

My initial itinerary:
Day 1 (Kuta/Tuban):
- Reach Kuta at noon
- Check in at Green Garden hotel at Tuban
- Didnt plan to go anywhere far. Just walk around Kuta and surrounding area.
- Dinner at Jimbaran.

Day 2 (Kuta/Tuban):
- Hire a driver
- Pura Taman Ayun
- Tanah Lot (Pura Luhur Uluwatu and Pura Pakendungan)
- Uluwatu
- Dinner at Jimbaran again.

Day 3 (Kuta/Tuban - Ubud):
- Check out from Green Garden Hotel and check in at Tegal Sari, Ubud.
- Shopping around Ubud area.
- EAT EAT EAT!
- SPA

Day 4 (Ubud)
- Hire driver
- Water Rafting (Ayung River)
- EAT EAT EAT!
- Pura Ulun Danu Bratan
- Kintamani
- EAT EAT EAT!
- Spa

Day 5 (Ubud):
- Check out and go back home.

So hows my journey looks like? Too pack or I can still fit in more activities?

Thanks!
Dont think I will going for the Kecak dance, most of my friend said it aint worth it.

BTW, I have contacted the driver thru mail, he said its gonna be 300k Rupiah per day without time limit. Is that a good bargain?

Hi, peeps, need help here. Anyone going to Bali? I need help buying a 'pig figurine' what made of wood. Its pretty light coz its empty inside. Its a Pig figurine with big head, wood brown color. Kinda cute. I saw it last time at the Depansar airport. I will pay extra for it.

Please do help. Leave me a PM if you are willing to help.

Thanks in advance.
