The Best Bali Tours

There are two river rafting spots in Bali those are Ayung River and Telagawaja River. Rafting at Telagawaja River is an exciting water adventure with high challenge of river rapid to bring more fun and exciting. It is a different way to enjoy the holiday in Bali with the spectacular adventure pass through the wild nature with beautiful scenery along the river. The local Balinese people and children are easily found along the river with their special friendly smiling to welcome every one pass through this river that could make the trips are very enjoyable. We will be shocked by the free jump at the water dam with 10 meter high before terminating the adventure. The professional rafting guide will understand to accommodate all passengers in safety by using their well training and experiences. It is real water adventures that make your holiday are memorable one.

Cycling Tours is one of the best ways to discover the real part of the island’s life and beauty. For travelers who seek to go deep into Bali's Countryside and witness first hand the daily life of rural rice farmers and craftsmen. Make frequent stops along the way to get a closer look at the many ancient temples and plantations.

Ride past sleepy villages and see the locals perform their daily chores, working in the fields or taking care of children. Watch local women carry fruits and flowers as an offering to the gods, and village ducks being herded in pretty little processions along the way. Spend the day getting to know the real Bali as you cycle through Indonesia’s picturesque locales.

Bali's spectacular Carang Sari rice bowl area offers a chance to see traditional rural life unchanged for a thousand years. Starting at our Adventure Centre and skirting the beautiful Ayung River valley, we follow the farmers tracks through emerald green paddy fields observing the timeless routine of plowing, planting and harvesting using hand crafted tools and age old techniques. Visit village temples and plantations of coconuts, mango and jackfruit, all to a backdrop of unspoilt Balinese countryside, before finishing at the village of Kedewatan.

Or try an alternative. Starting high in the mountains at the village of Mayungan, this twenty five kilometre ride winds its way down along valleys, passing temples and shrines and criss-crossing golden rice fields through landscape unchanged for a thousand years. You can see local Balinese culture and customs while you pass through the jungle and villages.

Visitors to Indonesia and Bali may not immediately think of hiking up a volcano as a holiday activity but it can be enjoyable and interesting. Here are some of my tips on doing that.

First choose a volcano that suits your style. If you are into strenuous hiking, go for Gunung Agung in East Bali. There are 2 places you can hike from, Besakih on the west slope or Pura Pasar Agung on the SSE slope. A summit hike from Besakih might take you 6 hours and another 4-5 to get down. Only do this if you are in good shape.

There are local guides on offer at Besakih who you can hire on the spot.

Pura Pasar Agung might take you 4-5 to climb and another 3-4 to get down.
These 2 hikes are usually started at night (people from the Besakih side starting out at mignight) to see the dawn from the summit. The footing on Gunung Agung is a bit slippery, especially after a shower and is heavily rutted. Hard for people with knee problems but a reasonably fit person can make it.

There are a few guides hanging around at the base but they are mellow and one even told us we did not really need a guide. We ended up taking him as we did not want to fall over a mini-cliff in the dark.

Gunung Batur in the Kintamani area will take 2-3 hours and about 1 ½ or 2 hours coming down. People start out here around 4am to see the dawn. Clouds roll right after the dawn so getting up any later can mean all you will see is clouds. The most popular volcano to hike in Bali and you can expect to pay a fee and meet local touts acting as guides.

The Association of Mt. Batur Trekking Guides has a fixed fee of 300,000rp per guide with a limit of 4 people. I remember back in 1993 before this existed the local guide would hassle tourists trying to climb the volcano themselves. This is their money-maker and they are going to hang on it.

Gunung Catur is a decent sized volcano that is forested the entire way to the top. Hiking can be done after dawn and the time is around 3 hours to get up and 2 hours to get down.

Very nice hike. Not many other people climbing this one. No fees, no guides and you really do not need one.
