Since there are no food or drink options listed within the village itself, plan to head to the nearest town center for dinner and drinks after you leave Penglipuran.

Check before you go

  • Vehicles are kept outside the village, so you must walk to enter.
  • Check the route for transport from the village to your dinner destination.
