About this experience

There’s something magical about watching the sun dip behind Uluwatu’s cliffs, waves crashing far below, as the air fills with the chants of the Kecak Fire Dance. With over 50 performers moving in rhythm, fire, myth, and music come alive in this unforgettable Balinese ritual.

But it starts even earlier — with a private ride from your hotel, winding along the coast to reach Uluwatu Temple. Perched high above the ocean, the temple offers one of Bali’s most iconic sunset views and a glimpse into the island’s spiritual roots.

Skip the lines with pre-arranged entry tickets, enjoy reserved seats at the dance, and travel comfortably with private transfers from Kuta, Seminyak, Sanur, Legian, Denpasar, Canggu, Nusa Dua, Jimbaran & Uluwatu. It's a seamless cultural evening — just how a Bali experience should feel.
