Pura Ulun Danu Beratan Temple: A Bali Walking Tour

Bali Walking Tours is a collaborative team creating immersive self-guided audio walking tours across Bali’s most culturally rich and historic locations — including Ubud’s royal palaces and markets, the Campuhan Ridge walk, the UNESCO-listed Jatiluwih Rice Terraces, Ulun Danu Temple on Lake Beratan, Denpasar’s traditional trading streets and the back lanes of Seminyak.

Our goal is to have our walkers understand why temples are oriented a certain way, how rice irrigation sustains communities, how ceremonies shape daily life, and how history still echoes through modern Bali. And along the way, we promise a few surprises, small detours and stories you won’t find on a signboard.

Developed by long term Bali residents and locals with years of on-the-ground exploration and research, these tours are built from meaningful conversations with local families, temple custodians, artisans, traders and community leaders. Each walking tour is carefully structured to combine history, religion, architecture, art, food culture and everyday Balinese life — giving independent travellers deeper understanding as they explore at their own pace. We believe learning about Bali should be as enjoyable as the walk itself

At the heart of our storytelling is Ibu Febri Paramedi, narrator, street photographer and blogger. Born into a mixed Balinese family and educated overseas, Febri lives between two worlds. Her deep connection to Balinese customs, ceremonies and heritage allows her to share stories with authenticity, while her international perspective helps translate complex traditions into engaging and accessible insight for visitors.

Our historian and researcher, Putu Sudiana, is an authorised licensed tour guide holding official DPD HPI Bali credentials and the KTPP Tour Guide Card. With more than 20 years of professional guiding experience, Putu brings expert knowledge of Balinese history, temple architecture, religious philosophy and local wisdom. He works closely with cultural advisors and community members to ensure every tour is respectful, accurate and rooted in genuine local perspective.

Amalia Merinda, our location scout and community liaison, carefully maps each walking route, interviews shop owners and uncovers the human stories behind the scenery — from incense traders rebuilding after floods to multi-generational artisans preserving traditional crafts.

With multiple published tours on VoiceMap, Bali Walking Tours is dedicated to thoughtful cultural storytelling that helps visitors look beyond the surface and connect more deeply with the island’s history, spirituality and living traditions.

The tour takes place at the Ulun Danu Beratan Temple Complex (Danau Beratan, Candikuning, Baturiti, Tabanan Regency, Bali).

It begins once your car or transport is parked in one of the large carparks outside the complex. Walk to the well signed Ticket Office and buy a pass into the Temple grounds. The cost of Admission is 75,000 Rp per person. ($4.00 US approx).
