A Private Bali Transfer is more than simply moving between hotels. It allows travelers to discover beautiful places along the journey while enjoying a comfortable ride. On this trip, I, Komang, had the pleasure of assisting the same lovely couple from France during their hotel transfer from Maha Hills Villa Sambangan to The Jing Tejakula. Instead of driving directly to their next accommodation, we created a relaxing day trip with stops at Banjar Hot Spring and Sekumpul Waterfall before arriving at their new hotel.
As a local Bali driver with experience guiding international visitors, I always recommend destinations that match my guests’ interests, travel pace, and available time. This personalized Private Bali Transfer gave them the opportunity to experience northern Bali in a comfortable and memorable way.
Morning Departure from Maha Hills Villa Sambangan
Our Private Bali Transfer began at 10:00 AM from Maha Hills Villa Sambangan. After checking that all luggage was safely loaded into the vehicle, we started our journey toward Banjar Hot Spring, one of Bali’s most famous natural hot spring destinations.
The drive took approximately one hour through peaceful countryside, local villages, and beautiful green landscapes. During the journey, I shared information about northern Bali, local traditions, and the attractions we would visit throughout the day.
Relaxing Experience at Banjar Hot Spring
We arrived at Banjar Hot Spring at around 11:00 AM. Since the French couple had prepared swimming clothes, they were excited to enjoy the natural warm spring water.
The peaceful atmosphere and traditional stone fountains created the perfect place to relax before continuing the journey. They spent nearly one hour soaking in the mineral-rich pools while enjoying the tropical surroundings.
For travelers looking for a relaxing stop during a Private Bali Transfer, Banjar Hot Spring is an excellent destination because it combines nature, local culture, and wellness in one location.
Scenic Drive to Sekumpul Waterfall
At 12:00 PM, we continued our Private Bali Transfer toward Sekumpul Waterfall. The drive lasted approximately 1.5 hours, passing mountain roads, forests, coffee plantations, and traditional villages before arriving at the Sekumpul Waterfall parking area around 1:30 PM.
Before they entered the attraction, I explained the available ticket options, including the trekking packages and the View Only Ticket.
Since they wanted a relaxing afternoon instead of a trekking adventure, they decided to choose the View Only Ticket.
Walking to Hanging Resto View Point
Although motorcycle taxi services were available from the parking area, I offered them the option first. However, they preferred to walk together while enjoying the peaceful atmosphere and fresh mountain air.
They walked from the parking area to Hanging Resto View Point, where they admired the incredible panoramic view of Sekumpul Valley. The viewpoint provides one of the best perspectives of the surrounding rainforest and distant waterfalls, making it an ideal location for photography.
This gentle walk also allowed them to enjoy the natural beauty without taking the longer waterfall trekking route.
Lunch at Hanging Resto
After enjoying the viewpoint, they had lunch at Hanging Resto, one of the most scenic restaurants near Sekumpul Waterfall.
The restaurant offers beautiful jungle views while serving delicious Indonesian dishes, making it an excellent place to relax before continuing the transfer. They spent time enjoying lunch while taking in the peaceful atmosphere of northern Bali.
Arrival at The Jing Tejakula
At approximately 3:00 PM, we departed from Sekumpul and continued our Private Bali Transfer to The Jing Tejakula.
The drive took around one hour along Bali’s beautiful northern coastline. We arrived at the resort at approximately 4:00 PM, where I assisted them with unloading their luggage before they completed the hotel check-in.
The guests were happy because they had enjoyed not only a comfortable hotel transfer but also two wonderful destinations in one enjoyable day.
