Blue Lagoon Snorkeling – Jungle Swing – Ubud – All Inclusive

Blue Lagoon is the star here: clear water, friendly fish, and two snorkeling spots make this a lively way to spend a Bali day. You also get a jungle swing, Tegalalang Rice Terrace, private transport, lunch, and pickup from many major resort areas.

I like the easy logistics and the private format. Your guide manages the car, boat, equipment, towels, changing room, and meals, while you set the pace with your own group. I also like the variety: this is not only a water outing, but a full day of sea views, rice fields, and photo stops.

The main drawback is the long day and the mixed quality of the stops. Snorkeling sounds like the strongest part, while the included lunch may feel basic, and traffic can make a 10-hour schedule tiring.

Key points to know before booking

Blue Lagoon Snorkeling - Jungle Swing - Ubud - All Inclusive - Key points to know before booking

  • Two Blue Lagoon snorkeling spots: You get about two hours in the water with equipment, a boat, and an instructor included.
  • Private car and private activity: Only your group participates, with a second car provided for groups larger than seven.
  • Jungle swing included: My Swing Bali gives you time for the high-swing photo that draws many visitors to Bali’s interior.
  • Tegalalang adds a rural side of Bali: You can walk among rice paddies and see farmers working in the valley.
  • Pickup covers major resort areas: Seminyak, Canggu, Nusa Dua, Ubud, Kuta, Jimbaran, Sanur, Legian, and Tanjung Benoa are listed pickup areas.
  • A full day for active sightseers: The tour suits you best if you want several Bali highlights in one outing rather than a slow, single-site visit.

Blue Lagoon snorkeling is the main event

Blue Lagoon Snorkeling - Jungle Swing - Ubud - All Inclusive - Blue Lagoon snorkeling is the main event

The water portion takes place at Blue Lagoon Beach, where you snorkel at two spots for a total of about two hours. An instructor accompanies you, and the package includes the snorkeling boat, mask and equipment, towel, shower, and changing room.

The appeal is simple: the water is described as clear, and fish may come close to you. That makes this a good choice if you want to see marine life without planning a separate boat trip or arranging equipment on your own.

You should still think of this as a guided recreational snorkeling outing, not a specialist marine expedition. Sea conditions can change, and the tour requires good weather. If weather forces a cancellation, you can choose another date or receive a full refund.

One useful point is the private boat arrangement. You are not being added to a large sightseeing group for the water portion, so your day should feel more personal. The exact pace still depends on the sea, your guide, and the time needed to move between stops.

Bring sun cream, a hat, and a swimsuit. A camera is also listed as useful for your own photos, though you should protect it carefully around the water. Towels are supplied, so you do not need to pack one solely for this excursion.

What the two snorkeling stops mean for your day

The itinerary gives Blue Lagoon two separate entries, one listed at two hours and another at three hours. The included details clarify the practical version: snorkeling at two spots for a total of two hours. I would plan around that total rather than expect five hours in the water.

That distinction matters because the day already includes the jungle swing, Tegalalang Rice Terrace, pickup, lunch, and driving. The water portion is substantial, but this is not a beach day with unlimited swimming time.

An instructor accompanies you, which helps if you are new to snorkeling or want someone handling the basic water arrangements. The package also includes boat transport and equipment, so you avoid the usual scramble for a mask, fins, or a place to change.

The strongest feature is the close-up marine life. Fish can come right up to you, making the snorkeling feel active even if you are not an experienced swimmer. At the same time, the excursion requires a moderate level of physical fitness. You should be comfortable getting into the water, using snorkeling equipment, and moving through a busy day.

The jungle swing at My Swing Bali

Blue Lagoon Snorkeling - Jungle Swing - Ubud - All Inclusive - The jungle swing at My Swing Bali

After the water, the tour heads to My Swing Bali for about an hour. The swing rises over a dense area of palm trees, giving you the classic Bali swing photograph with a high viewpoint and open space below.

This stop is short and focused. You are not visiting a large cultural site or spending half a day in the area. Instead, you get time to ride the swing and take memorable photos before moving on.

I like this part because it breaks up the snorkeling with a completely different setting. It also suits people who want a few strong holiday photos without booking a separate swing attraction.

The tradeoff is that the swing is a staged attraction. It is about the experience and the picture, not about learning much about Balinese life. If you prefer temples, markets, or long walks, this may feel more commercial than the other stops.

Wear clothing that lets you move easily, and keep personal items secure. The tour includes the jungle swing ticket, so you do not need to arrange entry separately.

Tegalalang Rice Terrace in one hour

Blue Lagoon Snorkeling - Jungle Swing - Ubud - All Inclusive - Tegalalang Rice Terrace in one hour

Tegalalang Rice Terrace brings the tour back to Bali’s farming country. You have about an hour to stroll through the famous rice fields, enjoy the green paddies, and watch farmers at their daily work.

This is a useful contrast with Blue Lagoon. The morning or earlier part of the day gives you sea scenery, while Tegalalang offers inland views and a closer look at one of Bali’s familiar agricultural settings.

Do not expect a long hike through every part of the valley. One hour is enough for a walk and photographs, but it is not enough for an unhurried exploration of the entire area. The terrain may also require some care, since rice terrace paths are not the same as flat city sidewalks.

I would use this stop for a relaxed walk rather than trying to rush from viewpoint to viewpoint. Comfortable shoes will make the hour easier, especially after snorkeling and the swing.

Pickup routes can change the opening views

Pickup is offered from Seminyak, Canggu, Nusa Dua, Ubud, Kuta, Jimbaran, Sanur, Legian, and Tanjung Benoa. You provide your accommodation name when booking, and the operator arranges the collection.

The route can include different opening views based on where you stay. Jimbaran-area pickup may include a traditional morning fish market. Nusa Dua pickup may offer views of beaches and the mangrove forest from the Bali Mandara toll road over the ocean.

Kuta and Seminyak routes can include the Dewa Ruci sculpture, while the Titi Banda Statue tells part of the Ramayana story, including Rama’s bridge and the monkey troops who helped recover Sita. Sanur and Gianyar pickup routes may offer views of the beaches, while Ubud-area pickup can include a traditional morning market.

These are not a single fixed sightseeing circuit for every booking. They are location-linked parts of the pickup route. That means you should ask which opening stop applies to your accommodation instead of assuming you will visit every market, statue, beach, and road viewpoint listed.

The extra sights are a nice bonus, especially if you are staying in one of the listed resort zones. Still, the core experience remains Blue Lagoon, the swing, and Tegalalang.

A private tour makes the long schedule easier

Blue Lagoon Snorkeling - Jungle Swing - Ubud - All Inclusive - A private tour makes the long schedule easier

This is a private tour, so only your group participates. That gives you more control than a large shared excursion, especially when you want extra time for photos, need a short rest, or prefer to move on quickly from a stop.

The air-conditioned vehicle, fuel, parking, and private transportation are included. Those details matter in Bali, where a day covering coastal and inland areas can involve a lot of road time. You are not left arranging separate taxis between the beach, swing, and rice terraces.

The tour lasts about 10 hours. That is a lot to fit into one day, but the variety explains the length. You are combining a coastal activity, a photo attraction, countryside sightseeing, lunch, and pickup from a wide service area.

Groups larger than seven receive a second car. That keeps a large party from being packed into one vehicle, though it also means the group may travel in two cars rather than together in one cabin.

The private format is especially helpful for families, couples, and small groups with different comfort levels in the water. It is less ideal if you want a slow morning or a quiet afternoon at one beach.

Lunch is included, but keep expectations modest

Blue Lagoon Snorkeling - Jungle Swing - Ubud - All Inclusive - Lunch is included, but keep expectations modest

A traditional lunch is included, along with the tickets and activity costs described in the package. That is convenient during a day with limited time between stops.

The meal is best viewed as practical fuel rather than a major food experience. The available feedback describes the lunch as basic, while the snorkeling receives the stronger praise. If food is a central reason for booking, this tour may not be the right choice.

Still, having lunch arranged is valuable. You do not need to search for a restaurant while wet from snorkeling, or spend part of the day negotiating where to stop. The guide handles the basic logistics so you can focus on the outing.

The phrase all inclusive should not make you assume every personal purchase is covered. The listed inclusions cover tickets, lunch, transport, equipment, the swing, towels, showers, parking, and fuel. Bring money for anything personal that is not specifically listed.

Is the $101 price fair?

At $101 per person, the value depends heavily on your group size and how much you would otherwise spend arranging the day yourself. This is not simply a snorkeling ticket. It includes private transportation, pickup, boat service, instructor, equipment, lunch, the jungle swing, rice terrace entry, parking, fuel, and changing facilities.

For a couple or small private group, the price can make sense because transport across several Bali areas is already a major part of the day. You also avoid arranging separate drivers, a snorkeling operator, a swing ticket, and a rice terrace visit.

The value is weaker if you mainly want to snorkel. A dedicated Blue Lagoon outing could suit you better if the other stops feel like filler. The tour works best when you genuinely want all three main elements: water, swing, and rice terraces.

A high overall rating of 4.8 from nine ratings suggests the package has worked well for many bookings, but the smaller number of ratings means you should still judge it by your priorities. The clearest practical takeaway is that the snorkeling is the strongest reason to book, while lunch and some sightseeing stops may feel more ordinary.

Who should book this Blue Lagoon day?

I would recommend it for you if you have one full day in Bali and want several major activities handled in one booking. It is a good match for:

  • Couples wanting snorkeling and photo stops
  • Families comfortable with a moderate level of activity
  • Small groups that value a private vehicle
  • First-time Bali visitors with limited time
  • People who want equipment and lunch arranged
  • Visitors staying in one of the listed pickup areas

I would think twice if you want a slow, authentic market morning, a long rice terrace walk, or a food-focused outing. The swing is designed for photos, and the day moves at a fairly brisk pace.

You should also be comfortable with a 10-hour schedule and changing from beach activity to inland sightseeing. Good weather is important, and the tour can be moved or refunded if conditions make it unsafe to operate.

Practical details before you go

Confirmation is provided when you book. Give the provider your accommodation name so pickup can be arranged correctly.

Bring sun cream, a hat, swimsuit, and camera. A towel is included, as are shower and changing facilities. You should have a moderate fitness level and be prepared to follow the guide’s water instructions.

The provider requires protective masks for participants and guides under the stated health rules, with social distancing and regular vehicle cleaning also included in the operating information.

Free cancellation is available up to 24 hours before the start time. Changes or cancellations made less than 24 hours before departure are not accepted for a refund, so check the local cutoff time before booking.

Should you book it?

Book this tour if you want Blue Lagoon snorkeling as the centerpiece, with a jungle swing and Tegalalang added in the same private day. The included boat, instructor, equipment, transport, lunch, and tickets make the $101 price reasonable for someone who values convenience.

Skip it if you want a specialist snorkeling trip, a better food experience, or a relaxed visit to one place. For most people, the best reason to choose this package is not any single photo stop. It is the efficient mix of sea, countryside, and private transport in one long Bali outing.
