Check out from Kuta and begin the scenic drive east, through changing landscapes and traditional Balinese villages. Your first stop is Lempuyang Temple, home to the famous ‘Gates of Heaven’ — a split gateway that perfectly frames Mount Agung in the background. It is one of the most photographed spots in Bali, and genuinely as beautiful in person as in every photo you have seen.
Next, visit Tirta Gangga Water Palace — an old royal garden filled with koi ponds, stepping stone paths, and tiered fountains. Peaceful, photogenic, and a favourite with kids. Then continue to Ubud, Bali’s cultural heartland, arriving by evening. This shift from coastal Kuta to the cooler, quieter pace of Ubud is one of the great pleasures of this Bali holiday package from Mumbai and beyond.
