Description

Begin your adventure with a guided walk through lush rice fields that stretch as far as the eye can see. Follow the narrow trails that weave between green terraces and irrigation channels, and feel the earth beneath your feet as you learn about traditional farming methods passed down through generations. Along the way, your local guide will explain how rice is cultivated, the seasonal cycles of the land, and the significance of rice not just as a food source, but as a sacred part of life. Pass local farmers at work, scenic rivers, and peaceful bamboo groves. It’s a chance to slow down, breathe deeply, and enjoy the sights and sounds of nature. The trekking path is suitable for all levels, with gentle inclines and plenty of rest stops. Discover hidden viewpoints and photo opportunities that capture the quiet beauty of the Sidemen valley. After your trek, visit the home of a local family who will welcome you with warm smiles and open hearts. This is a unique opportunity to step inside a traditional Balinese compound and learn firsthand about how people live, work, and pray in the village. Your host will explain the structure of the home, the significance of each area, and the daily rituals that take place. From small shrines to family kitchens, gain insights into customs that have been preserved for centuries. After the visit, enjoy a freshly prepared lunch in the family’s home. Served on the terrace or in the garden, the meal is made using local ingredients and traditional cooking methods that reflect the family's personal touch and heritage. The menu is a surprise and may vary depending on the season, what’s available in the market, and what the family chooses to prepare that day. But one thing is certain: it will be cooked with care and shared with love.
