Fabulous bike ride and lunch - We are a group of 6 staying in Legian. We had a fabulous day with Made as our guide. We were collected from our hotel and had stops to look at the terraced rice paddies and to taste teas and coffees on our way to start the bike tour. The biking is mostly downhill and doable for all abilities and fitness levels. At the end of our ride we went to the home of the owner of Halo, Yoga, for a cooking demonstration and traditional Balinese lunch. The food was delicious. This is a family owned business and the service was personal and attentive. A great day and highly recommended. This was our third time doing this trip with Halo and there is always something new to see. The best way to contact them to organise is through WhatsApp Bali Bike +62 812 3767 9172

Unforgettable bike tour and cooking class - Excellent service that goes beyond a simple bike tour. Made has been the perfect guide and tour leader entertaining the group and giving us a full overview of the Balinese culture and costumes.
Moreover we have experienced an additional activity that consisted of a cooking class and a typical Balinese lunch. An experience that we will never forget and felt like family.

Good experience! Advise! - They picked us up at the hotel and the experience included stops at the rice fields and the Luwack coffee factory before setting off on the bikes to the countryside outside Ubud and show cooking Balinese dishes. But there were so many things to do at the rice fields that we skipped the stop at the coffee plantation and even the show cooking. The bike route is almost entirely downhill, easy and undemanding (only 1 climb where you push the bike). It lasts about 2 hours, with short stops where local customs and traditions were explained to us. We then arrived at Yoga's house where his wife, the wonderful chef Mrs. Komang Sri treated us to a spectacular lunch. After lunch they took us back to the hotel by minibus. In all we left in the morning at 8.30am and returned at 5pm

Beautiful ride with insight into the real Bali ❤ - Another absolutely brilliant tour with the wonderful group at Halo. We could not have had a warmer welcome, and the opportunity to learn more about what every day life for the Balinese people is really like was really special. Added to this was the cooking class & beautiful meal in Yoga's own home. Highly recommend ❤❤❤

Cycling Bali - Ubud - Thanks heaps to Made and his team for an amazing experience. Recommended by mates in Aus and even thought the weather wasn’t great it was still a cracking day for 10 of us. Perfect communication and knowledge about any questions asked and stunning views during the ride with minimal pedalling required. Had a traditional meal after the ride making us feel welcome into their home, overall great value and an awesome experience, highly recommend to anyone in Bali looking for a day out. Suksma, guys!
