Ubud Cooking Class Temple Tour and Jungle Swing

About this tour

This 8–10 hour tour weaves together three distinct experiences: a hands-on market-to-table cooking class where you'll prepare authentic Balinese dishes and eat what you've made, a visit to Tirta Empul Temple to explore one of Bali's most revered spiritual sites, and a vine-swinging adventure at Happy Swing amid jungle canopy. You'll travel by private air-conditioned vehicle with a driver, gaining insight into local food traditions, temple culture, and a dose of adrenaline—all in one day.

Highlights

• Market visit and ingredient selection for cooking class
• Learn traditional Balinese recipe techniques in kitchen
• Eat your own prepared lunch, authentic flavours
• Tirta Empul Temple grounds and sacred spring water
• Jungle swing experience above tree canopy
• Private transport throughout the day
• Dietary requirements accommodated in advance

What to expect

Morning begins at a working local market where you'll select ingredients alongside vendors and locals. Back in the kitchen, an instructor guides you through building balance and depth in Balinese cooking—paste work, spice layering, the lot. You'll sit down to eat what you've cooked, tasting the effort firsthand. Mid-afternoon shifts to temple grounds: expect barefoot walking, modest dress requirements, and pockets of genuine quiet despite visitor traffic. The final hours are spent at the swing park, strapped in and launched over treetops. It's thrilling but demands reasonable fitness; the arc and g-force aren't trivial.
