Ayung River rafting (Bali River Rafting)

1 Gang V, Renon, Bali

Description

Bali River Rafting is a multi-activity operator in Bali. Besides rafting, they run quad-bikes and cycling tours. Ayung is one of Bali's most popular rivers for rafting, the other ones being Telaga Waja and Melangit rivers. This review is for the 12km half-day (5h00 including lunch with about 2h15 on-water) starting about a 20mins drive from Ubud. The operator provides the safety equipment (life jacket and helmet). All participants need to be able to swim and the minimum age for this option is 6 years old. The website states that it is suitable for 6-65yrs old. The min. number of participants to run the tour is 2.

Access & Transport

The meeting point is in the vicinity of Ubud and will be communicated at the time of booking The operator also offers a formula that includes transport from and to most tourist locations for an additional ~IDR100k/pers. with a minimum of 4 participants. You would need to contact them to know the price for 2 or 3 participants.

Instructions & Recommendations

Customers should bring a towel, wear a suitable attire such as swimsuit/short, t-shirts, closed shoes, a dry bag and some drinking water.

Meta review

Feedback from online reviewers is positive, they find the guides fun and professional and the route perfect for first timers: a little thrill but no full-on rapids and a fantastic waterfall. The only drawback seems to be the walk down and up the stairs at the beginning and end of the trip, and the disappointing quality of the buffet lunch.

Environmental & Social

Eco-friendly activity. This helps support small independent operators

Conclusion

Rafting on the Ayung river makes for a really fun day outdoors and is perfect for white-water novices. Bali River Rafting is one of the better operators, so this is an option to consider, especially if you are based around Ubud (much shorter transport)

Key positive

Fun activity for couples, groups and families

Beautiful scenery along the river

Key negative

Route will be too tame for experienced white-water enthusiasts

Long flights of stairs involve to get to and from the river

Suitability

Suitable for 6 to 65 yrs old who can swim (so not appropriate for guests with mobility issues). No minimum fitness requirement.
