The Experience

The day starts at the ATV basecamp with a welcome drink and safety briefing. You'll ride a quad bike solo or tandem (two people per bike) through lush jungle trails, rice fields, local villages, mud tracks and water splashes—fully guided and designed for both beginners and experienced riders. After 1.5 hours in the saddle, you'll shower, change clothes and eat a buffet lunch of Indonesian dishes at the basecamp facilities.

A short drive takes you to the Ayung River, where you'll paddle through tropical rainforest, pass waterfalls and stone carvings, and navigate class II–III rapids. The guides manage safety while keeping the pace exciting. Life vests are supplied and worn throughout. The activity sequence can flip depending on weather or river conditions—you might raft first, then ride the quads afterward.

If you book with transfer, a driver picks you up from your hotel in an air-conditioned vehicle and returns you at the end of the day. Solo riders get one quad bike per person; tandem riders share one bike and must book in multiples of two, with a combined weight limit of 145 kg. Bring a swimsuit, change of clothes, sunscreen and a camera; the basecamp provides towels and changing facilities.

Is this one for you?Book the solo option if you want to ride your own quad bike and navigate the rapids independently; choose tandem if you're traveling with someone and prefer to share one bike. The transfer option suits arrivals without a rental car or those who'd rather not navigate to the basecamp—the driver handles the logistics, so you can focus on the ride and the river.

Top questions

Can I do the quad bike and rafting in a different order?

Yes. The activity sequence can change depending on weather or river conditions, so you might raft first and then ride the quads, or vice versa. Your guide will confirm the order when you arrive.

What's included in the lunch?

An Indonesian buffet lunch with local dishes is served at the basecamp after your quad bike ride and before you head to the river.

Do I need my own quad bike experience to ride solo?

No. Solo riders operate their own bike, but the activity is designed for beginners and experienced riders alike, and you'll be fully guided throughout the 1.5-hour ride for safety and fun.

What happens if my child is younger than 10 or older than 13?

The activity is only open to ages 10–60. Children aged 10–13 ride as passengers on a tandem bike with an experienced rider; children under 10 cannot participate.

Is the hotel pickup really optional?

Yes. You can book with or without transfer. If you choose transfer, a private pickup from your hotel is included with an English-speaking driver; without it, you'll meet the group at the basecamp.

What should I bring or wear?

Wear light, comfortable dry-fit clothing and bring a swimsuit, change of clothes, extra socks, sunscreen, sunglasses, a cap or hat, and a camera. The basecamp provides towels, showers and changing rooms; bring petty cash for any personal expenses.
