Ubud Rafting

Before rafting, you'll put on a life vest and helmet. After a short drive, you'll need to climb many stairs, both up and down, to reach the rafting area, so you'll likely be out of breath and sweating. The actual rafting lasts about an hour and a half, with a 30-minute break in the middle where you can buy drinks (NT$120). Afterward, there's lunch, which is decent. I recommend sitting in the front left for the best photos, as you won't be blocked. There will be people taking photos and videos at various spots, and at the end, they'll ask if you want to buy the video and photos for around NT$800, which is quite expensive. I suggest splitting the cost with your rafting companions to make it more affordable. This was my first time rafting, and it wasn't too scary or prone to capsizing; it was genuinely thrilling and fun! I'd definitely want to go again!

Nós nos divertimos muito fazendo rafting no rio Ayung e visitando as cachoeiras com o nosso motorista Purna, que foi super paciente e atencioso com as nossas necessidades. Ele nunca recusou nenhum pedido nosso, fossem paradas para café ou para almoçar em um lugar que não estava no roteiro. Ele nunca pediu nada em troca e estava genuinamente disposto a nos mostrar e nos fazer sentir como é o povo balinês. Muito obrigado, Purna, por tudo o que você fez por nós! Nós realmente curtimos muito o nosso passeio com você!!!! Altamente recomendado para quem procura um bom guia turístico em Bali! E um ótimo bônus: ele é um excelente fotógrafo e videomaker! 🫶🏼♥️

The driver picked us up exactly on time. It was great that we only had to walk down stairs for about 7-8 minutes to reach the rafting starting point, and then we could immediately transfer to a truck at the end point. The guides were cheerful and fun, and thanks to them, we laughed a lot during the rafting. Individual lockers were provided, which made storing our belongings convenient. For lunch, we had fried rice, noodles, three side dishes, and chicken soup, which was decent. The showers weren't bad, and it was nice that large towels were provided.

Que dia! Made garantiu que tivéssemos o dia mais maravilhoso! Ele foi muito simpático, super prestativo e tinha todo o conhecimento local. Começamos o dia com o tubing na caverna, a equipe de lá foi brilhante e garantiu que tivéssemos um momento emocionante, ao mesmo tempo em que nos fazia sentir seguros e bem-vindos. Desfrutamos de um almoço e depois fomos a uma plantação de café Luwak, onde pudemos provar alguns Cat-Poo-Chinnos XD. Novamente, a equipe foi simpática, acolhedora e experiente, e até pudemos experimentar os balanços de Bali! Terminamos o dia com um passeio pelos campos de arroz, e novamente Made tinha todo o conhecimento local e gostamos muito de conversar com ele. Hoje foi o meu dia favorito e recomendo vivamente esta atividade!

After checking out of the Bali Beach Hotel, we took an 8-hour guided car tour to experience Sobek Ayung River Rafting. Our reservation was for 1:30 PM, and we naturally assumed we would go directly to the starting point. However, we first went to the endpoint, and then, with our rafting guide, proceeded to the starting point. We were a bit surprised at first, but the clear instructions helped us proceed without any issues. Best of all, we were the only family booked for 1:30 PM, so my two sons, aged 9 and 13, and I (their mother) had a boat all to ourselves, allowing us to enjoy the experience at our leisure. We had a truly wonderful time admiring the beautiful scenery of the Ayung River. Our veteran guide led us safely and expertly, so we felt completely at ease enjoying the rafting with our children. The shower facilities after rafting were clean, and the meal was delicious. We made truly great memories with my 9-year-old and 13-year-old children. Thank you to Sobek and our guide for providing us with such a safe and enjoyable rafting experience!

Everything is arranged perfectly. I went as a solo female traveler and I was bervous at first for doing tubing alone but Tara Experiences provided me a tour guide who joined me and he helped me and took photos of me. It was a fun and safe for women who are doing solo traveling. The meal and drinks after the activity is also good! 🫶🏻🌸 Thank you for making my tubing experience fun and memorable! 🌷

I picked Mason among all operators due to their supreme facilities! tho Mason charge more than some operators but I find its value for moeny!! first their building for lunch and changing room is super nice and modern and our guide Monkey (he said call him monkey :-) he is super experienced and made our first rafting experience an amazing one!! they have a longer route compared to other operators and 2 hours rafting turned out so much fun!! they have a photo video for most of our rafting experience and I find it worthy to buy to recall our beautiful memories!! I highly recommend whoever looking for good rafting experiences to go with Mason!! especially you can enjoy a hot shower in clean shower room !!

Localização e serviços incríveis, especialmente o nosso motorista, o nome dele era VICKY, ele nos ajudou muito e foi genuinamente bom e educado… Adorei todos os serviços.

It was great that the guide spoke Korean well. The day before the tour, they contacted me via WhatsApp, and I sent them my pickup location. They arrived right on time. I really appreciated that they spoke Korean so well and drove comfortably. We did rafting with a different company, and the rest of the tours were with our guide. The itinerary was flexible and could be adjusted. I think this would be a great choice for Koreans.
