Additional Information

On this excursion, you will not only discover the spirituality in the everyday life of the Balinese, but also immerse yourself deeply in this faith during a blessing and purification ceremony - called Melukat in Bali. An introduction to Hinduism and Brahmin culture, which isn´t usually given to foreigners, is an important part of your experience and you will gain an insight into Balinese traditions.
The Balinese priest (called Mangku) prepared the ceremony especially for you with rice, flowers - different colours for each part of the ceremony, fragrant incense sticks and holy water. All are carefully crafted for purification and blessing purposes.
The cleaning and blessing ceremony is intended to refresh body and mind and provide space for new experiences. The impact on nature, the local people and their way of life remains minimal, instead you´ve the opportunity to engage intensively with them and thus make a contribution to the preservation of authentic village structures.

  • purification/blessing is not permitted during female menstruation period
  • We can accommodate dietary needs such as vegetarian. If you have dietary requirements, please kindly indicate it to the special requirements at the time of booking.

Wonderful cultural experience - We visited Balikaru for a purification ceremony and had a wonderful day. It was amazing to get an insight into Balinese culture and everyone at Balikaru village was so friendly and welcoming. We were given lots of information about the cultural significance of the ceremony and what each part of the ceremony meant. The village itself is lovely, and I particularly enjoyed watching the chickens misbehave as we ate our delicious lunch. This was a very special experience for our honeymoon and one of our favourite things we did in Bali, I would definitely recommend for anyone who enjoys cultural experiences.

A very individual and great experience. - We were very lucky that we were the only ones who booked for the day, so it was a very individual day for us with a village tour, welcome, clothing, blessing and then a delicious meal. The impressions will stay with us for a long time.
