About this tour
Spend a full day navigating the Telagawaja River's rapids in eastern Bali, then explore two contrasting landscapes that showcase the island's raw appeal. The 9.5-hour outing combines white-water rafting through rainforest and canyon terrain with visits to Tukad Cepung Waterfall—tucked into a jungle ravine—and Penglipuran, a traditionally built village where families still live according to centuries-old customs. Suitable whether you've never rafted before or you're chasing adrenaline.
Highlights
- Grade III–IV rapids through forested canyons and past limestone cliffs
- Tukad Cepung Waterfall hidden deep in jungle valley
- Penglipuran Traditional Village with intact ancestral architecture
- Buffet lunch and all safety equipment supplied
- Hotel pick-up from Kuta, Seminyak, Canggu, Ubud, Nusa Dua
What to expect
You'll be collected from your accommodation and driven to Karangasem in the east. After gearing up, you'll spend 2–3 hours on the river, paddling through rapids flanked by jungle and stone walls, with guides managing navigation. A mid-day stop at Tukad Cepung involves a short hike down jungle trails and stairs to reach the waterfall's base. After lunch, you'll visit Penglipuran village on foot, observing traditional courtyards and daily life at an unhurried pace. Facilities include showers and a changing room; the day concludes with a return transfer.
