Excellent family experience - An excellent full day activity starting with a good breakfast at a gorgeous view, a trip to an eco-coffee place with also a gorgeous view. Followed by the cycling. The road is downhill all the way, we barely needed to pedal. However this is still a road with some traffic so whoever is riding should be able to control a bicycle going downhill and avoid the potholes (very few) and keep to the side away from vehicles. Still there was an emphasis on safety throughout. One guide was always behind and on the lookout for stragglers. And the van followed us throughout so that if anyone needed to tap out early it was possible, and they could go rest on the van. We had two pit stops, one at a traditional bali family house where my toddler son had a lot of fun with their children in the garden, and one to a small temple where a small snack of sweet bananas was provided. Lunch was decent at a lovely place with a fountain. And the last part of the trip, the waterfall was interesting. I realised I don't like swimming in waterfalls but it was an intersting experience nonetheless.

One of the best family days out ever - We had a brilliant day with Mudita and team. It was well organised and structured, the pick up was punctual and we enjoyed our breakfast with an amazing view of Mount Batur to start the day. The ride was easy on quiet roads and tracks through villages, rice paddies, stopping at a family home & small holding, a temple, rice fields and more. All along the way, everyone wanted to say hello and wave. Such beautiful people. Mudita shared so much about Balinese family life - it was fascinating. Lunch was delicious and our trip to the waterfall rounded the outing off nicely. Our 17 and 21 year old said it was their favourite day of the holiday. Cannot recommend enough.

Fantastic family fun. - I can't recommend this for highly enjoy. Our guide Edi and driver were both fantastic. Nothing was to much trouble. We could take our time, never pressured to pressured to buy anything, food was fantastic, two great meals in two very different but beautiful settings. The mnt Bing was fun, all down hill, we especially enjoyed the if road trails through the rice paddies. Then a great swim at the waterfall to finish. Excellent value for money, a great family day out. Thanks so much!

A fun day exploring the real Bali. - A Very informative culturally educational experience . Tour guide was very friendly and accommodating. The bikes were well maintained and everyone in the group was able to cycle the route as it is mainly downhill. It was our 2nd time on this trip and we took our friends who had never been to Bali before. They also loved the experience.

A MUST DO when in Bali! - You'll learn so much about Balinese culture on this trip -- it is truly educational! You stop at a small agro farm and learn about what grows in Indonesia (cocoa, coffee, etc.) and sample different coffees and teas. The biking is more like coasting downhill -- you will hardly have to pedal. You get to enter a private family compound and learn about who lives where and why and about death and burial customs and which child inherits the compound and why it can never be sold. You'll learn about how Balinese children are named. You stop in a rice field and learn about planting and harvesting. And, you can ask any questions along the way or request to stop if you see something interesting (we added a stop at a roadside shop that did wood carving; we also asked our guide to find a large spider as we had that on an earlier trip and he did!) and your guide will happily accommodate. We are Americans living in Jakarta and every time we take visitors to Bali we do this tour with them. It was closed down during Covid so we were so excited they're operating the cycling tour again!!! It was the highlight of our visitors' time in Bali!!!! We learn something new every time. They are using a new restaurant at the end for lunch and it is excellent and a great change! This trip is so worth the price and never disappoints!

Favourite tour in Ubud! - This tour was the highlight of our two week trip to Ubud. Our host, Winnia, was full of smiles and personality, knowledge and hospitality. What we loved most about this tour, in addition to the host, was the diversity of experiences in just one tour - really good value! In the morning we visited a coffee & fruit plantation and then a stunning restaurant for buffet breakfast overlooking My Batur volcano. After this we organised the bikes and proceeded with the mostly downhill tour through village streets, with stops at a traditional compound home, temple, amazing mountain-top complete with fresh coconut waters, sacred Banyan tree, spider holding ( I opted out of this activity!!) and rice paddy fields. The scenery was stunning and we learnt so many interesting things! Our fellow tour group members were friendly and we enjoyed eating lunch together at another beautiful restaurant with stunning views to finish off the tour. Although we didn't bike as much as we expected so it was quite 'easy' in that respect, this was an awesome tour that we would highly recommend.

Just an ordinary tour sugarcoated with marketing terminology - I still wonder where the 'eco' and 'educational' parts were to be found in this tour (maybe because we rode a bicycle?). This tour is advertised to be a local unique experience and a 'signature' classic tour (all the marketing terminology is there) in reality it is nothing but a cheap, ordinary tour. Even the rice fields they took us to were the least impressive of all the ones I saw in Bali and well if you don't mind having a guide being excited like a kid to show you a rooster fight, caged animals and pigs screaming in their tiny slot well this tour is for you. Overpriced to top it all
