The Experience

Batubulan is famously recognized as the heart of Bali's stone carving and cultural performance scene, but a vastly different, high-energy experience awaits you just 40 minutes north. Our premier river tubing excursion provides a seamless, hassle-free transfer from the artisan streets of the south directly into the misty, deep ravines of the Gianyar jungle. Upon reaching our state-of-the-art basecamp, you will be outfitted with premium safety gear before you descend into a spectacular, hidden gem canyon. The river tubing experience itself is an adrenaline-pumping mix of relaxing, scenic floats and thrilling Class II rapids. Interestingly, as you ride the currents, you will be able to admire magnificent, ancient-style stone carvings etched directly into the river cliffs—a perfect thematic continuation of your stay in Batubulan! This incredible water adventure is deeply rooted in providing an authentic Balinese experience, culminating with a refreshing hot shower and a sumptuous buffet lunch before we drive you safely back.

Highlights: Experience a genuinely authentic Balinese experience, navigating through a stunning hidden gem river featuring natural waterfalls and thrilling rapids.

💡 Pro Tip: Since the trip back takes about 40 minutes, you will be back in Batubulan just in time to catch the famous late-afternoon Kecak or Barong dance performances.
