All about the trip

Your local guide and driver will pick you up at your hotel, transferring you to our biking start point (transfer around 45mins). On arrival, your experienced guide will take you through a safety briefing, provide a safety helmet, and ensure your bike is the right fit.

After a quick safety ride, you will set off with your cycling guide on a 3-hour downhill adventure (times may be slightly longer dependent on weather conditions).

We continue to cycle through rural villages stopping to learn how rice is cultivated (you will have the opportunity to try this), stopping at a Balinese style temple, surrounded by colorful offerings.

We leave the bikes behind as we take a short walk to Gulingan village, Mengwi. Famous for its Balinese cooking lessons. Here you will learn the art of sumptuous Balinese cooking.
