Overview
Escape the tourist hub to the cooler climates of Bali's mountainous region in Kintamani. With mountain bikes and safety equipment, embark on a downhill trail from Pludu village that winds through sleepy villages on lesser-used roads and tracks.
Frequent stops offer opportunities to admire ancient temple compounds and shaded plantations bearing various crops. Witness local women gracefully carrying festive offerings of fruit and flowers to appease the Gods, while village ducks are herded in amusing orderly processions. Young boys cut grass to feed the family cow, and weathered old men gossip at roadside stalls, sipping glasses of aromatic mountain ground coffee.
At the end of your journey, an air-conditioned escort vehicle awaits to take you to enjoy a replenishing buffet luncheon before returning to your hotel.
All of guides hail from the surrounding regions and are trained to entertain and educate, sharing a broad depth of knowledge about Balinese culture and lifestyle. If you only do one tour while staying in Bali, this is the one! A day packed with interest, education, and fun!
