Inspirational, spiritual and cultural highlight - On the occasion of our 2. On the wedding day we chose this trip. The day was simultaneously, impressive, enjoyable and slowing down. We got on Balinese traditional clothes and were photographed with them. Then we walked a short distance down to a river. There we were blessed by the priest and then received by the priestess. We made our own offering bowls and cleaned ourselves with the smoke of the incense sticks.
Afterwards we ate some snacks from the sacrificial bowl together with the other German couple.
Then we went back to the main house with great garden. We were served an excellent lunch. As a surprise we got a little "birthday cake" on the occasion of our wedding anniversary.
As a farewell, everyone received a bar of homemade soap.
Afterwards we visited the rice terraces of Jatiluwih, which are very impressive. Next stop was the hot springs.
We continued to a refreshing waterfall in the middle of the jungle (Attention many stairs, but it is worth it!!!)
Last we visited a coffee plantation and got to taste different flavors of coffee and tea.
We really enjoyed the day and can only recommend it to everyone!!
Our special thanks go to Guide Juli, who guided us through the day with all the important and funny details.

Super nice and versatile tour to get to know Bali - The cleaning ceremony as well as the cooking class were very nice. We also saw a great waterfall and rice fields. At the end of the tour there was a tea and coffee tasting. Our guide spoke German very well and answered all our questions.

A must to do in Bali - Unforgettable experience, must to do for spiritually oriented people, who love nature. The ceremony is held in the forest by the natural spring. Balikaru center is really beautiful, the food is delicious. Totally heart-warming experience. My guide was really informative and kind and I learned a lot about Balinese hindu culture. As a solo female traveller i felt very secure and relaxed during the whole excursion.

Very memorable experience in Balikaru - I really recommend this trip to people who are spiritually oriented and love nature. Balikaru center is beautiful with delicious food and charming hosts. They give cooking classes as well, would br great group activity, and it's possible to spend a night there as well. You get to walk in nature, and experience very memorable and heart-touching purification and blessing ceremony in the middle of tropical forest and natural spring. I learned a lot about hindu religion as well as plants growing in the area. We went to see rice field and waterfall as well, so you could take your swim-gear with you. Lastly we went to coffee and herbal tea tasting which was situated in a very lovely place. You might want to bring some extra money with you, because they are selling really tasty and special locally produced coffees and herbals, including avocado coffee and lemon grass tea.
I took a trip as solo female traveller and felt very secure and comfortable all the time. Our driver was very good, so felt safe through the whole trip.

Our experience - Very lovely people. The ceremony was very interesting and a great experience. The path to the ceremony location, which is located on a small river, is not easy to reach, that is the only drawback. (Steep stairs) It would not be recommended for people with physical disabilities. For us, however, it was not a problem, just watch where you step. Thank you for the experience and the great food.

Unique and beautiful - It was an unforgettable experience that every Bali holidaymaker should experience at least once. You immerse yourself deeply in Hindu culture and forget the stress of everyday life at home. Many thanks to the very friendly team and the priest and his wife. And to Eka, our very informative and friendly tour guide.

Don't miss - The visit is worthwhile. Warm hosts who take loving care of you. The food was delicious and there was also a vegetarian and even vegan option. The purification ceremony gave a very good insight into the Hindu tradition. Thanks to the great staff. We would definitely recommend this ceremony tour to anyone visiting Bali.
