Description

Step off the beaten path and experience Bali in its most genuine form through the land, the people, and timeless traditions. This full-day tour offers an immersive blend of cultural learning and natural exploration, ideal for those who crave connection and authenticity beyond sightseeing. Begin your journey in the peaceful countryside of Marga, Tabanan, where you’ll visit Rumah Desa Bali a traditional Balinese village that offers a rare window into the daily life of the locals. Here, you’ll take part in a meaningful rice planting experience. With guidance from the village farmers, you’ll walk barefoot through the warm mud and plant rice seedlings using the ancient Subak irrigation system, recognized by UNESCO. It’s not just educational it’s grounding, meditative, and deeply rooted in Balinese philosophy. Next, step into a traditional open-air kitchen for a coconut oil making class. Learn the full process of producing lengis tandusan, Bali’s traditional virgin coconut oil. From grating coconuts to cooking the oil over a wood fire, this hands-on workshop teaches you a sacred home tradition passed down through generations. You’ll go home with a little bottle of natural oil and a big memory of cultural wisdom. After your village immersion, unwind in nature with a visit to Leke Leke Waterfall, a hidden gem nestled in the jungle. Take a short trek through bamboo bridges and lush greenery to reach this stunning waterfall, perfect for photos, reflection, and a breath of fresh air. The tour concludes at the serene Sangeh Monkey Forest, where you’ll wander among towering nutmeg trees and centuries-old temples, home to a calm troop of long-tailed macaques. Unlike the busy forests of Ubud, Sangeh offers a quieter, more spiritual experience, perfect for ending the day on a peaceful note.
