The good tickets & entry passes fill up days ahead in high season. Below, the 15 to book first, what each includes and where they differ.

Meet a local guide at Uluwatu Temple for a walk through the grounds, photo stops and help avoiding the cheeky monkeys, then enter for a Kecak performance with 75 performers and a fire dance. Tickets include temple admission and the show. Transport is not included, and guides such as Made, Adhi and Kadek Pedro have earned praise for their stories and practical help.
“It was a good experience, the tour guide was kind enough, stopped until everyone in the group joined and explained things very well. He made us sit in a good position for the kecak dance which was such a refreshing version of ram leela. It was fun. Be careful with the monkeys. No hats/eyeglasses please.”
Make your own way to Uluwatu Temple for an approximately one-hour Kecak and Fire Dance performance timed for sunset. Your ticket covers the show, not temple admission or transport. Expect a chorus of male voices, traditional costumes, a Ramayana story told through movement, and a fire sequence, with busy queues and free seating possible.
