Great cycling tour in Ubud. - We had a truly delightful experience with Darsa Adventures. Our guide, Wayan, was very enthusiastic. He shared a great deal about the surroundings and life in the environment of Ubud, and he is highly recommended.

Downhill ride - Amazing views over the volcano and lake at our starting point. Wayan provided a tailor made tour to suit our cycling abilities. A wonderful visit to the coffee plantation where we tasted the local coffee and had breakfast, then onto the rice fields and a traditional home.

Spectacular way to see Bali - Our group of 2 adults, and 2 tweens had an AMAZING time on this tour. The hotel pick-up made it very easy, and we stopped at the Lewak coffee plantation on the way up. Our girls each did the Bali Swing, and the team there took some great photos for us.
The ride down the volcano was spectacular and so nice to get off the beaten path and see the back roads. Our guides (Wayan and Wayan) we’re so kind and accommodating, and we never felt rushed. We stopped at a traditional Balinese house and learned about the layout and function of each space, and then continued on. Next stop was a rice field, where we learned about planting methods.
Continuing on, this ride is 99.9% downhill, but there is one steep hill. Two people in our group opted to ride in the car for this part, which was a great relief to them.
Lunch at the end was so delicious and appreciated after such a nice long ride.
This trip was even better than expected and I wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone visiting Bali.

Sooo many photo ops! Great fun, great insight. - Fantastic day. The guides were awesome and we saw some beautiful parts of Bali away from the hustle and bustle. Even an intense downpour didn’t dampen the day.

Great day exploring outside of Ubud - Great day with Wayan as a guide. Unfortunately fog at Kintamani but after some downhill it cleared up. The stop at the coffee plantation was nice, and great with some tasteing! Great day to have a look on the countryside and rice fields.

Amazing Ubud bike tour! - This is a fantastic day out with teen kids (group of 4 adults, 4 teens). After a 7.30am pick up from our resort in Legian we drove over an hour to Ubud - lots of eye candy on the way. The tour stopped at a coffee farm where you'll have a guided tour showing local cropping plants, animals and tea and coffee tasting. Next stop is via Mt Batur (option at no extra charge) then onto the bikes. The tour is 99% downhill or flat but that 1% is a doozy! You'll stop at a traditional Balinese home and our guide, August, did an awesome job telling us about Balinese traditions and family life. My 17yo son told much how much he loved this! So many great photo opportunities and at the end a very welcome hearty and delicious lunch. Great day out, a definite if you want to see some countryside and learn more about life outside the busiest tourist zones.

Wonderful tour - We had the best day on this tour. Everything was easy in terms of pick up and drop off to our hotel. The coffee plantation was fabulous - lots of teas and coffees to try for free and the Luwak coffee was delicious. The bike tour itself was brilliant. Wayan, our guide, is a lovely human being who consistently checked that we were going okay - particularly me who isn’t super confident on bikes. The riding was easy - basically all down hill on quiet streets. We rode through beautiful countryside, got to see temples and a traditional compound. It was the perfect way to explore the area. Wayan was very informative and we left the tour feeling like we better understood life in the villages. The lunch at the end was outstanding. Traditional Indonesian food in abundance. I have a nut allergy and everyone carefully catered for that. We couldn’t recommend this tour more highly!

Amazing! - The people were amazing! They picked us off and dropped us off. Our guide was so kind and helpful. The food was amazing and the views were great!!! I highly recommend it was one of the best things I’ve done in my life. Be cautious with bringing children with you as one part the tour is on a busy road and can be very dangerous.

Varied day with good guidance - Nice variety in the program: visit to coffee plantation, view on Mount Batur, bike ride and lunch. Our guide was very attentive during our tour. Lunch buffet was more than enough to choose from. Biking was relatively short and 90% downhill, therefore not very challenging. Maybe some more explanation/stops during the biking or make the route a bit longer.
