So far to get here
In a nutshell
beautiful things have it's own price.
black_mimi99 Says: Tegalalang Rice village located on the north-south road from Kintamani and Ubud. Tegallalang Village rice terraces has beautifull view with coconut trees and beautifull small river valley.
black_mimi99 Says: From Tirta Empul temple, overlooking the temple on a hill above is a suprisingly modern building: the Government Palace, built in 1954. Originally a residence for Dutch officials, it was later used by former President Soekarno during his frequent trips to Bali.
black_mimi99 Says: For more than a thousand years, Balinese worshipers have been drawn to Pura Tirta Empul, whose sacred spring is said to have been created by Indra and to have curative properties. The tradition continues almost unchanged at the temple.when I touch the water, it's so fresh...

Hold your breath .... and look ahead
myspices Says: Magnificent Gunung (Mount) Batur which is an active volcano, crater lake and Danau Batur in Kintamani - see them at the same spot. Normally the tour van will stop you at a high spot in Kintamani where there are railings . Bending over slightly on the railings, look below and...

Lakeview Hotel: Fantastic View of Lake and Mt. Batur
Marjara Says: The hotel is the first one when you enter the Batur area just before the road descends to the lake. In the general area of Kintamani, the hotel is located in the village of Penelokan. There were other hotels further down close to Kesdian and as far as Toya Bungkah but...
Lakeview Hotel: Lakeview Hotel - average with a great view
gortoa10 Says: We stayed one night in the Lakeview hotel.The bedrooms and toilet are basic - just about clean enough.The food is quite poor , but at the time (late Nov) of our visit very few alternatives were open, and those that were open were genuinely dirty. The price is too high for...

Their barbecued meat on sticks is of the ebst I've ever eaten. Mostly it's lamb and they only ask 5000 Rps for 6 sticks.
It's a great in-between

Kintamani - Bangli : 25 minutes with a local bus for 5.000 Rps
Bangli-Gianyar : 30 minutes in a bemo for 5.000 Rps
Guanyar - Ubud : 30 minutes in a private car (some sort of taxi) for 10.000 Rps
Loks difficult but was in fact very easy

Helpfulness
Just when you were brought to a spot to view the great scenery, and just when you disembark from your transport, swarms of souvenier sellers will crowd round you, almost forcing you to buy their goods. They are desperate, agressive and persistent - no matter how you shoo them away, they will follow you about. Once you start buying from one of them, you had it - others will come rushing to you to buy more.
There was one who was selling a chessbox. He kept saying "one dollar, one dollar". Of course the chessbox costs more than that. His calling is just to attract your attention. What he meant was each of the chess piece is one dollar and the whole set could come up to quite an amount.
If you are not interested in buying, do not look or touch the items offered, do not even talk to him, just wave your hand as a sign to show that you do not want it.
We had a group of pedlars who followed us until we went into a warung for lunch. They waited at the door (it was also raining then) and relentlessly waving their goods at us and bidding us to buy.

Pricely food with a Good view?
myspices Says: Some tour groups will send the tourists to restaurants that so-called "have a better view" of Mount Batur and the crater lake. Here, seated high up in the restaurant, with the views of the mount and lake in front of you, you will either have the buffet lunch or the a la...
Goldenboy Says: This lady seller will follow you wherever you go. If she think, it's not working for her to offer you their goods, then they will beg for your kindness to buy some. Poor her. It is happening since the bombing, I guess.Why it is become a trap? Think cause their goods is not...
