The experience

The tour starts with pickup from your Ubud hotel and a short ride to the shop, where you'll meet your guide and get familiar with the fat-tire electric bikes. The motor does the work on climbs. You steer through the narrow paths of Sok Wayah and along the rice fields that border the route. The fat tires grip terrain that would stop a regular bike: broken ground, wet earth, tight turns between cottages and paddies. A stop at Tegallalang Village lets you see the famous UNESCO rice terraces up close, and the guide explains what you're looking at: how the paddies are planted, how water moves through them, how the landscape shapes Balinese life.

Midway through, you'll stop at a traditional Balinese house for a break and a fresh fruit salad. The guide talks about the house itself (how it's built, how families live in it), and you get a moment to rest before the second half of the ride. The route also passes a coffee plantation where Luwak coffee is grown. If you want to taste it, that's available. A Bali swing is on the route as well for anyone who wants to stop. The whole ride is 3 hours. At the end, you eat a meal on the terrace of the shop before heading back to your hotel.

You'll pick either the 9am or 2pm departure when you book. Both routes cover the same ground (Sok Wayah, Tegallalang, the traditional house), and both include the guide, water, snacks and the bike. The morning tour starts earlier. The afternoon one gives you time for breakfast in town first. Either way, the group stays under six people, so the pace stays manageable and the guide can answer questions without rushing.

Is this one for you?Choose the 9am departure if you want to ride while the light is still soft and the paths are quieter. Pick the 2pm tour if you'd rather start the day in Ubud's town center and ride in the afternoon. Either way, the small group size, no more than 6 riders, means the guide can adjust the pace and stop for questions without holding anyone back.

Top questions

What happens if it rains?

It may be canceled due to bad weather. If that happens, you're offered another date or a refund. Free cancellation up to 24 h before the start.

What are the fat-tire electric bikes actually like to ride on these paths?

Fat tires are wider and grip uneven, wet or broken ground that regular bike tires slip on: the kind of terrain you hit constantly on the narrow paths between rice paddies and cottages. The electric motor handles the hills, so you're not exhausted by the climbs. You pedal, but the motor does most of the work. Riders need at least a moderate level of fitness, and the minimum age is 16.

Do I have to ride the Sok Wayah path, or can I skip it if it looks too rough?

Sok Wayah is the main route for all riders. The description notes it's for "the most adventurous riders," but it's the path the tour follows. If you have concerns about your fitness or the terrain, mention them when you book. The operator can advise on whether the tour suits you.

What exactly is Tegallalang Rice Terraces, and why is it on the route?

Tegallalang is a UNESCO World Heritage Site in Bali: a series of rice paddies cut into the hillside in stepped terraces. The tour stops at Tegallalang Village so you can see the terraces themselves and understand how they work. The guide explains the farming and the landscape during the stop.

Is the Luwak coffee tasting included, or do I pay extra for it?

The tour passes the coffee plantation, but tasting the world-famous Luwak coffee is optional. You can choose to stop and taste it, but it's not part of the included meal. The included meal is a fresh fruit salad at the traditional house and a meal on the shop terrace at the end.

How does pickup work if my hotel is outside central Ubud?

Hotel pickup and drop-off are included within Ubud. If your accommodation is outside Ubud, the operator can arrange it. Contact them when you book to confirm the location and any adjustments needed.

What's the difference between the 9am and 2pm tours?

Both tours follow the same route (Sok Wayah, Tegallalang, the traditional house, the coffee plantation and Bali swing), and last 3 hours. The 9am departure gets you on the bike early. The 2pm departure lets you have breakfast in town first. Both include the same guide, bike, water, snacks and meals.
