Pickup details

What To Expect

Begin your experience with pickup at your Denpasar hotel, where you’ll board an air-conditioned minivan destined for a rafting point beside the Ayung River. During the journey, you’ll stop at the villages of Tohpati and Celuk, renowned for their production of artisan crafts.

At the rafting meeting point, listen to a safety briefing before boarding your inflatable raft and conquering the rapids of the Ayung River. Under the instruction of your guide, you’ll paddle past undulating green hills, rugged cliffs and jungles abundant with exotic flora.

Following rafting, you’ll revitalize with lunch before visiting the Sacred Monkey Forest Sanctuary in Ubud, home to sacred temples and countless grey macaques. Before entering the forest, familiarize yourself with the rules and regulations: the monkeys are wild and therefore prone to unpredictable behavior.

Next, spend some leisure time exploring Ubud Market — replete with souvenirs and artisan treasures — and then marvel at the architecture of Ubud King Palace.

Your tour concludes with drop-off at your Denpasar hotel, after you’ve stopped to capture the beauty of the Tegenungan waterfall.

Loved it! Definitely a must-do when visiting Bali

Renata_S, May 2023

My husband and I loved this experience. We had a fantastic day that we will never forget. Our driver, Lewer, was amazing. He was so friendly and knowledgeable, and we would definitely use his services. The white water rafting was, by far, the highlight of our Bali trip. It was beautiful and serene, but also had a good level of excitement and fun. Our guide on the boat was super friendly, hilarious and very entertaining. He was making us all laugh the entire time and really helped build a positive and energetic vibe amongst the group. The buffet lunch following the rafting was delicious. It was traditional dishes that were full of flavour. Would definitely recommend this tour to anyone going to Bali. We loved it.

Tired, memorable and fun

Sandra, Jul 2022

I never expected the rafting to be almost 1:5hrs lol. Really worth it. I seen some others who started half way of my route. It was fun. My guide winata was really friendly and made us at ease. We skipped the waterfall in the end cause we are too tired and wanted just a place to lounge and have coffee and he even offered if need he can wait and drive us back later.

Doing rafting in this river is wonderful! The nature is amazing! The organisation excellent! The driver picked us up from our hotel and he took us back, he was very polite. The only thing i did not like was the lunch. For the rest, highly recommended!

Highly recommendable!

The car driver is very polite and nice. Can speak english very well and is very courteus. The guy from the river rafting is also nice and very entertaining.

The staff were incredibly friendly...

Chye T, Apr 2018

The staff were incredibly friendly and hilarious, making the experience even more fun! The walk down to the river was pretty long but wasn't too bad as it's all downhill. The water rafting itself was fairly easy and can be done by all ages. You will most certainly get wet! I would definitely recommend to bring a GoPro or waterproof camera of some sort as the views on the river are beautiful, but also to capture the fun you're having whilst water rafting. The staff will even help to take pictures for you if you provide them with your waterproof camera. Will 100 do it all again!

This tour was fantastic fun and...

Colin W, Sep 2017

This tour was fantastic fun and excellent value for money compared to other tours! The rafting is absolutely fantastic and the guides in the boat very friendly and very experienced. The tour seems to start higher up the river than most of the other rafting trips and deffo more white water!!
