At 70 metres above sea level, Uluwatu Temple is a must-see for history and architecture lovers. In addition to its scenic surroundings, the site is considered one of the six key temples in Bali and a spiritual pillar of the island. Learn about its historical and religious significance during an Uluwatu Temple Tour with a local guide before wandering the grounds at your leisure and snapping photos. Before leaving the sacred temple site, head to the open-air amphitheatre to catch the Kecak & Fire Dance.

1.00This was not a skip the line tour. Our guide told us to meet at 4pm. He showed up 11/2 hours late without tickets(said he wasn’t able to get them online/ even though there were people going through the line with pre-paid tickets) so we stood in line for over an hour and missed the 6pm show. We never even met up with the guide. Do not feel this should be advertised as a skip the line tour. Get your own tickets online before.
Good for larger family

5.00Being first time and with a family, was good to be picked up from Villa and dropped back again. Kadek Oka our driver/guide was friendly, answered our questions well, and gave us a great tour of the temple. Worth it the first time to make sure everyone was safe and trip was worry free.
Short tour! Exactly what I was looking for!

5.00Driver on Time. Nice. Giving good advice. I like the fact that it was only the temple visit and the show. This is what I was looking for. Thanks to Adiputra!
Go on a cool day...

3.00Viator needs to update the details of this excursion. The listing says it’s a five-hour trip starting at 4:00 pm, but that’s not accurate. I asked the driver about eating, and he mentioned that if we wanted food, he’d have to pick us up at 3:00 pm. So, we were picked up early and taken to a restaurant near the temple from 3:30 to 4:30—only to find out that the trip actually ends at 7:00 pm. That meant we paid for a meal we didn’t plan for, at a place we didn’t choose, at a time that didn’t make much sense. The trip itself was nice, but if you’re claustrophobic, be prepared—there were over 1,000 people packed into tight seating in 100-degree heat, which made things pretty uncomfortable. And to top it off, a monkey stole my phone. The monkeys looked hungry too :( Not exactly the evening I was hoping for, but our tour guide was very kind.
The Lines are Long

4.00Wonderful driver Gusti. It is not really a skip the line tour. In fact there is no queue, just a lot of pushing and shoving to get in and out of the performance. It is an interesting cultural experience but would only suggest to folks who don’t have a phobia of crowds
