Denpasar City Tour

Adult prices from £34, Child prices from £17

This leisurely tour introduces you to all the main attractions of the bustling capital city of Denpasar, beginning at its heart in the attractive Puputan Square.

‘Puputan’ literally means ‘ending’ as the square lies near where one of Bali’s grand palaces once stood. When the Dutch arrived in 1906, the Balinese people led by the King of Denpasar chose to commit suicide rather than surrender, and here, nearly 4000 people, including the royal family, died.

The tour continues to the Bali Museum, packed with exhibits from the prehistoric to the 20th century. Learn about Bali's fascinating culture. Among the many artefacts on display are scale models depicting the ritualistic Balinese tooth filing, marriage, and cremation ceremonies.

Afterwards, head to Gajah Mada Road, where you will encounter the significant landmark of the city, the Catur Muka Statue. A depiction of God Brahma, the Catur Muka Statue is a manifestation of God as the Almighty Creator.
