The Experience

Tirta Empul Water Temple is the destination, and the route there winds through Ubud's rice terraces and past local villages where your guide shares insights into Balinese culture. The electric bicycle does the heavy lifting on climbs and longer stretches, so you can focus on the landscape and the stops instead of the effort. Hotel pickup and drop-off in the Ubud area are included, along with an air-conditioned minivan ride to the starting point, so the logistics are settled before you arrive.

The tour runs three hours total. You'll need some bicycle riding experience and a minimum height of 150 cm to fit the bike; the maximum rider weight is 120 kg. Covered shoes and sunscreen are recommended. Children must be accompanied by an adult. Your guide carries bottled water and provides the helmet; the bike and all gear are included.

Tirta Empul itself is a spring-fed temple complex where water flows through channels and pools—a place Balinese people consider sacred. The tour finishes there with a Balinese lunch before the return to your hotel.
