About this tour
Paddle the Telaga Waja River's 18 km Class II–III rapids over 2.5 hours, then soar across a zipline strung above the canyon. This Bali adventure sidesteps the endless staircase problem—you'll carry gear through minimal elevation changes. The full-day package includes a cooked lunch at the riverside base, kit transfers between start and finish points, professional guides, and return transfers from Candidasa, Ubud or south Bali hotels. Morning and afternoon sessions available.

What to expect
You'll start at the upper put-in, where guides brief you on paddle technique and safety before launching into fast-moving sections punctuated by minor rapids and scenic pools. The river guides handle navigation while you focus on staying dry—mostly. At the midway or finish point, swap paddles for a harness and clip onto the zipline for a heart-stopping descent. Once back on solid ground, shower off, change into dry clothes, and tuck into a proper meal at the riverside restaurant. Transport between start and finish is sorted; your driver waits at the end.
