Kintamani is the highland day trip from Ubud, Bali, about an hour north, for single-origin Kintamani Arabica, plantation tastings and caldera-view cafes.
TipCafes on Jalan Penelokan open around 05:30, handy after a sunrise trek; at a coffee tasting ask for the single-origin Kintamani Arabica.
Jatiluwih is the UNESCO-listed rice terrace day trip in Tabanan, Bali, for terrace-view lunches and home-grown organic coffee, 1.5 hours from Seminyak.
TipSome terrace food stalls got removal orders in December 2025, so check what is open; Bhuana Agung and Gong Jatiluwih are the bigger lunch stops.
Hand-made sea salt and seafood from the morning catch are the draw at Amed in far east Bali, about 2 to 2.5 hours from Ubud on a winding road.
TipVisit the Amed Salt Centre to see sea salt dried and moulded by hand, then eat at a seafront warung; jukung boats set out at dawn.
Bedugul is a cool-air highland day trip in Bali built around Candi Kuning Market, roadside strawberries, ayam betutu and fresh lake fish from local warungs.
TipTaste before you buy: vendors at Bedugul Traditional Market usually offer fruit samples, and the market is open from 09:00 to 18:00.
Farm-garden cooking classes, early market visits and paddock-to-plate lunches among rice terraces make Sidemen Valley an east Bali food trip from Ubud.
TipPick a class that starts in a farm garden or at an early morning market, as The Bali Sun describes; Asri Dining at Samanvaya cooks paddock to plate.
Seaweed farms at Jungut Batu and beachfront lunches define Nusa Lembongan, an island day trip in Bali, 30 to 45 minutes by fast boat from Sanur.
TipSee the seaweed farmers at work in the morning, then eat at Ginger & Jamu, an all-day beachfront restaurant on Lembongan's main strip.
Coffee farms and family-run warung lunches draw visitors to Munduk in north Bali, about 60 km and two hours from Ubud, though most stay a night.
TipRestaurants in Munduk close earlier than in Canggu or Seminyak, so check hours; Warung Classic and family-run Warung Heaven both serve Balinese food.
