The driver was great and arrived early to pick us up. It was a legendary rafting trip, and the waterfalls on both sides of the river were magnificent!

This was a very satisfying activity. We stayed in Ubud and were picked up on time. There was some traffic along the way, but we arrived at the river more or less on schedule. Coffee and tea were offered. There was no wait time; the rafting started immediately. You don't have to walk as far as you do at the Ayung River. The rafting is 17 kilometers long and very exciting. The guide spoke Japanese. We stopped at a waterfall along the way where the guide took pictures for us. The waterfall also serves as a rest stop. Drinks and snacks are sold there, and there are also Indonesian-style toilets. After rafting, we showered and had lunch. The lunch included Mie Goreng and Nasi Goreng, which weren't spicy and even kids could eat them.

I was a little worried since it was my first time rafting, but the moment I started, all my worries disappeared. I was amazed by the surrounding scenery and thrilled by the rapids. It was the most enjoyable memory of my first trip to Bali with my friends in our mid-50s. The rafting felt safe and thrilling, so I think anyone can try it. I also really enjoyed the simple lunch buffet afterwards, thanks to the perfectly seasoned soup and side dishes.

The tour was very authentic. I was worried I wouldn't see the sunrise due to the bad weather, but I did, and the rafting was great too. The guide was friendly, and I was worried because my English is not good, but they guided me well, which was great. Thanks to them, I have good memories.

Thrilling and safe, an unparalleled experience. Most importantly, the water is crystal clear, much cleaner than Ayung River. I had an allergic reaction after getting out of the Ayung River before.
