There’s no “best time” to go but I went towards sunset for better lighting. There were only a few other people there so I didn’t have to wait long.
Ubud jungle swing tips
They market the Ubud Swing like an extreme sport. They also do river rafting. If you swing at the highest level they make you wear a safety harness that’s not cute for photos. In my opinion, they should market it to the instagram crowd who wants a cute photo on a jungle swing.
My friend and I discovered that if you swing at the lower level, you don’t have to wear the huge harness but a tiny rope that you barely see. The key is to get a photo with your back facing the camera and one facing the camera. They let you switch sides. For girls, wear a flowly dress in a color that stands out like red, pink, orange, yellow, white.
If you wear blue or green you’re blend into the trees. Also, point your toes. Trust me, it makes a huge difference.
Why should the Ubud swing be on my bucket list ?
It should be on your bucket list because when do you get to go on a swing in a jungle? It’s actually an exhilarating ride. You feel like you’re flying.
