About Ubud
Ubud is Bali's cultural and arts capital, set inland among rice terraces and forest in Gianyar Regency - a world away from the island's beach resort towns. Traveloka's "Ubud" listings span the central town itself and a wide ring of surrounding villages (Monkey Forest, Payangan, Tegallalang, Kedewatan, Sayan, Sebatu), each with a different character, from busy and central to secluded luxury retreats.
Getting to Ubud
From within Indonesia
Ubud has no airport of its own. From Ngurah Rai International Airport (DPS) in Denpasar, it's roughly a 1 to 1.5 hour drive by taxi or pre-booked transfer, longer to villages like Payangan or Sebatu further out.
Arriving from abroad
International visitors fly into Ngurah Rai International Airport (DPS), Bali's main gateway, then continue to Ubud by road - there's no rail link on the island.

Local Tips
The local currency is the Indonesian rupiah (IDR), though Traveloka displays and books hotel rates in USD. Ride-hailing apps like Grab and Gojek operate in Ubud, though some areas restrict pickup zones - check current local rules. Indonesia's emergency number is 112.
Best Time to Visit
The dry season, April through October, offers the most reliable weather for exploring the rice terraces and outdoor sites. The wet season (November-March) brings frequent afternoon showers, though Ubud's lush scenery is arguably at its greenest then.
