Ride Ubud’s rice terraces and village roads by e-bike, with local guides, hotel transfers, a coffee stop, jungle swing, and lunch or dinner.

Learned about how the older Balinese deal with death and how they celebrate life at the temple. Visiting the rice paddies and seeing the locals farm. Riding to a local swing was a highlight for my wife. Learning about the culture…”

★★★★★★★★★★4.2 · 144 reviews · 1 day · from $4Best value

Review Alas Harum Bali’s swing, sky bike, zip line, coffee tour, rice terraces, pools, prices, limits, and practical tips.

“Voor nog geen € 3,00 kan je door het park lopen en alles aanschouwen. Optioneel kan je bijvoorbeeld op de schommel, zip-line, vliegfiets of naar de zwembaden. Voor al het extra’s betaal je. Het is een park voor mensen die van fotografie houden en een stukJe Indonesische cultuur willen aanschouwen. Horeca is goed verzorgd. Ben je slecht ter been dan zou ik dit park overslaan. Veel hoogte verschil, trappen en niet altijd een leuning aanwezig. Heb je kleine kinderen, hou ze in de gaten.”
