About this tour
An eight-hour downhill cycling journey through rural Bali that goes beyond the usual tourist routes. You'll pedal through villages whilst connecting with local communities—stopping at a working organic coffee farm, a priest's compound, and a primary school where your visit supports ongoing charitable work. A local guide leads the way, and lunch is included. The ride suits intermediate cyclists comfortable with a full day in the saddle.
Highlights
- Downhill cycling through villages rarely on the tour circuit

- Access to a priest's residential compound
- Included breakfast, lunch, and hotel transfers
What to expect
You'll start early with breakfast before heading out on your bike. The terrain is mostly downhill, making it manageable for those with moderate fitness, though eight hours in the saddle demands stamina. Expect a mix of paved and dirt paths winding past rice paddies, family compounds, and small settlements. You'll dismount several times to explore: the coffee farm offers hands-on tasting, the school visit is straightforward (your presence supports their programmes), and the priest's compound provides rare cultural insight. Lunch breaks the day midway. Bring plenty of water and sun protection—rural Bali offers little shade.
Good to know
Wear light cotton clothing and sturdy shoes with grip. A moderate fitness level is essential; pregnant travellers and those with spinal issues should skip this. The minivan follows your group for support. Alcoholic drinks aren't included but can be purchased. Gratuities aren't expected.
