Tanah Lot & Romantic Rice Field Dinner

Tuck into the many dishes of a romantic ‘rijsttafel’ dinner in a traditional bale surrounded by rice fields.

Late in the afternoon, drive to the stunning coastal Tanah Lot temple located on a rock island in the sea. Without a doubt the most famous and photographed place in Bali, this sacred Hindu temple sits majestically on a large offshore rock which has been shaped over the years by the crashing waves of the surrounding sea.

After photographing the views of the temple exterior and the unusual rock formations, drive to nearby Mengwi for a romantic Balinese dinner. On arrival make your way through the rice field along a path illuminated by flaming torches. The flickering lights lead you to a traditional Balinese bale that overlooks a small river and the surrounding rice paddies.

Take a seat at the table and relax while the waiter brings the many dishes of a traditional ‘rijsttafel’. This elaborate meal, adapted by the Dutch colonial plantation owners, consists of flavourful Indonesian dishes accompanied by rice. To further compliment the meal you will be served a bottle of chilled Tunjung Brut, a sparkling Balinese wine produced from Indonesian grapes in a Balinese vineyard.
