Ride an electric bicycle through Ubud’s rice fields, villages, temples, and countryside with guides such as Gusti, Putu, Gina, or Anilya. The three-hour tour includes a helmet, water, hotel pickup, a Tegalalang stop, a coffee plantation or local compound, a jungle swing, and lunch after the morning ride or dinner after the afternoon ride.

“I’m a solo traveller and went on the afternoon tour - was surprised to be the only one on it so it ended up being a private tour! Ketuk did an awesome job, very knowledgeable, friendly and overall great guide. Firstly I’d like to say - please don’t choose to visit the coffee plantation. The living conditions of the poor Civets is terrible, very tiny cages for wild animals. Kopi Luak is known for bad welfare and this place is no exception. The plantation itself is also very poorly maintained and more of a tourist trap than anything. They strongly encourage you to buy their coffee. I wish I chose…”

The quad biking was very fun with challenging terrains, wet & muddy (younger children can either ride with experienced parents or their guides). As for the snorkelling, it was surprising good, still lots of live beautiful corals n many colourful fish n we also spotted 2 sea turtles medium n small sizes. Glad we did this trip n Will definitely do it again. The only down side was the congested traffic it was very unbearable but all worth it in the end.”
