If you want Bali adrenaline with minimal planning, this combo works. I like how it pairs Ayung white-water rafting with a guided ATV/quad ride through the countryside, and I like that both activities come with safety gear and a guide, plus an included Indonesian buffet lunch. The whole thing runs for about 6 to 8 hours starting at 8:00 am, which makes it an easy add-on when you want one big action-packed day.
One thing to consider: the $100 price can vary by option (like private transfers) and third-party booking channels, so you’ll want to double-check what your package includes before you pay.

Key Points You’ll Care About

- Ayung River rafting plus ATV in one outing, with guide support for both
- Safety approved equipment included: helmet, life jacket, and boot shoes
- Private A/C car pickup and drop-off available across many southern Bali areas
- Two 2-hour activity blocks (rafting, then ATV), built into a full day
- Lunch, lockers, towels, shower, and changing rooms included so you’re not hunting amenities
- Age limits and tandem rules are specific, so check before booking
Two Rivers, Two Tracks, One Day in Ubud

This is a classic Ubud combo: white-water rafting on the Ayung River, then an ATV/quad bike ride through Bali’s countryside. You’re not just sightseeing from a car window. You’ll be in the mix—wet on the river, dusty on the trails—then cooled down with showers and a proper lunch break.
What makes it practical is the structure. You get two guided experiences, each designed around a set time (about 2 hours each), and the day wraps into a total window of 6 to 8 hours. Starting at 8:00 am is also smart: you’re doing the active parts earlier, when it feels easier to move around.

Price and What You Really Get for $100

The listed price is $100 per person, and the day is built around real inclusions: guide, equipment, and meals. That’s why this can be good value compared with booking rafting and ATV separately, especially if you opt for private transfers.
A caution from real-world booking math: one published complaint raised concerns about pricing differences through a third-party booking platform and an agency. The provider response made the key point clear: private transport and group pricing are part of how the package is structured, and pricing can depend on how the booking is set up (including group size).
So here’s my advice: before you lock it in, confirm your exact option. Ask yourself:
- Does your price include private transport for your pickup area?
- Is it single ATV or tandem ATV, since tandem has extra rules?
- Are lunch and safety gear included on your chosen option (they are described as included in the package details)?
If you match your booking option to your actual needs, the price tends to make more sense.
Getting There: Pickup and Drop-Off Across Southern Bali
One of the biggest quality-of-life perks here is the pickup and drop-off. The package includes private transport with a fully air-conditioned car for guests coming from many areas around south Bali, including (among others) Ubud, Sanur, Denpasar, Nusa Dua, Jimbaran, Kuta, Legian, Seminyak, Canggu, and Canggu/Kerobokan. The full pickup list is wide, which is handy if you’re staying outside Ubud.
This matters because both rafting and ATV involve waiting, changing, and moving between sites. Having the car handled for you means less time coordinating taxis and fewer headaches when you’re coming back tired and wet.
Dress code is smart casual, but you’ll also want to think in terms of practical comfort: quick-dry bottoms for after rafting, and something you don’t mind getting dirty for the ATV.
Stop 1: Bali Pertiwi Ayung River Rafting in the Right Conditions

Your rafting stop is at Bali Pertiwi Rafting on the Ayung River. The experience is described as especially fun during dry season, and the focus is on safety while still delivering real rafting energy.
Expect a guided run that includes scenery and wildlife. The package description highlights the kind of sights you can pick up along the way: rice fields, jungle, and even wildlife like a kingfisher, plus the possibility of a hidden waterfall depending on conditions and what you can find along the route.
What I like about this setup:
- You’re not just chasing adrenaline. You’re doing it with a scenic river corridor and a guide.
- The day isn’t built around extreme risk. It’s guided rafting with safety gear included and a seasoned river rafting guide.
One potential drawback: rafting enjoyment is tied to conditions. The experience notes that it requires good weather; if conditions aren’t right, you’ll be offered a different date or a full refund. That’s not unusual in Bali, but it does mean you should avoid booking this as your one fixed, non-changeable day.
Stop 2: Bali Pertiwi ATV/Quad Ride Through Rice Terraces, Tunnels, and Jungle

Next up is Bali Pertiwi Adventure for your ATV ride. The ride is guided by an instructor who provides a full safety briefing before you start. That briefing is important because your route is described as varied: rice terraces, tunnels, bamboo forest, jungle sections, river crossings, village views, and panoramic outlooks.
You’ll also have an option style depending on the challenge level:
- Softer ride options exist for many people to enjoy the countryside
- If you want more technical action, the instructor guides you over more challenging terrain, including steep slopes, downhills, and the push back up that comes with using the bike’s power
Timing is tight but not rushed: the ATV block is listed as about 2 hours. That’s long enough to get your bearings, feel the bike, and actually enjoy the ride instead of just doing a short demo loop.
Practical reality check: you’ll need to be comfortable riding and following instructions quickly. The package fits people who like hands-on travel—less for those who prefer their thrills strictly on foot.
Lunch, Towels, Showers, and the Stuff That Makes the Day Work

Between rafting and ATV, you get an Indonesian buffet lunch, plus a bundle of comfort items: lockers, towels, a shower, and changing rooms. This is one of the most underrated parts of any water-and-mud day.
Why it matters: after rafting you’re wet, and after ATV you’re dusty. The shower and changing room reduce the “stuck in clothes” problem, so you can enjoy the second activity without feeling like you’re just enduring it.
Bring a change of clothes as the day guide suggests, and consider a small towel or sandals you don’t mind getting damp. Sunscreen is a must since you’ll likely be outside in the morning light and again on the ride.
Photo and video are not included; you can purchase them. If you care about getting real action shots, plan to budget a little for that.
Safety: What’s Included and What You Should Prepare

The package makes a big point of safety, and it’s backed by specifics: you get safety-approved equipment including a helmet, life jacket, and boot shoes. Both activities also come with a professional guide/instructor, so you’re not figuring out rules by trial and error.
There’s still common-sense prep you should do:
- Wear sunscreen before you start and reapply if you’re prone to it
- Bring a camera if you want it, but also bring your patience for muddy reality
- Follow the briefing exactly on the ATV. If they tell you how to hold, brake, and shift, do it their way
Insurance coverage is listed as included, which adds peace of mind—still, read what “insurance coverage” means in your confirmation message so you understand the basics.
Age Rules and Ride Options (Single vs Tandem ATV)

This package is open to a broad age range, but the details matter:
- Minimum age allowed for the overall adventure: 5 years
- Maximum age allowed: 60 years
- For ATV single ride, the minimum age is 12 years
- For children 5–11, ATV use is via tandem ride, and they must be accompanied by an adult
There’s also a booking rule for tandem rides: tandem must be booked in multiples of 2 (example: 2, 4, 6, 8, and so on). That impacts group planning. If you have an odd number of riders in the group, you may need to adjust how people pair up.
If you’re traveling with kids, this combo can still work well, but you’ll want to plan pairings early so the bikes match the tandem rules.
Who This Trip Suits Best
I’d put this combo in the sweet spot for people who:
- Want two guided adventure activities without spending hours coordinating between them
- Prefer an included meal and included gear, rather than DIY everything
- Like active days that still include structure (set start time, set duration blocks)
It’s also a strong option if you’re staying around Ubud or anywhere listed for pickup and you don’t want to handle transport on your own.
It may be less ideal if:
- You’re highly sensitive to getting wet or dirty (you will get wet on the river)
- You want a slow, wandering day with lots of time to stop and linger (the schedule is built around two main blocks)
- Your group has mixed age/riding needs and you’d rather avoid tandem matching rules
Timing, Weather, and Planning Your Day
Start time is 8:00 am, and the total duration is 6 to 8 hours. Plan your morning accordingly—don’t schedule a late breakfast, and don’t stack another timed activity right after.
Weather matters. The experience notes it requires good weather and that rain or unsafe conditions can cause a change of date or a full refund. If you’re in Bali for a short stay, pick the day with the most flexibility.
Also, the package is described as something people book in advance (on average about 40 days). If you’re traveling during peak season or you have a group with specific ride types, booking earlier gives you more control.
Booking Smart: Avoiding Price Confusion
That negative booking comment you might see online centers on perceived pricing unfairness. The response from the provider claims this is a misunderstanding tied to how listings and group pricing work, and that the package pricing includes private transport when selected.
Here’s how you protect yourself:
- Confirm your option includes private A/C transport if you want it
- Check whether your ATV is single or tandem
- Make sure the price you see matches the number of people and the ride type
- If you’re comparing prices, compare the inclusions, not just the headline cost
It sounds boring, but this is where people save the most money and stress.
Should You Book This Tour?
If your goal is one action-packed day that combines Ayung River rafting with a guided ATV ride, this package is a strong fit—especially because safety gear, lunch, showers, lockers, and private A/C transport (when selected) are included.
I’d book it if you:
- Want a guided day with real organization
- Like countryside scenery plus adrenaline
- Can follow safety instructions and are okay getting wet and muddy
I’d think twice if:
- You’re trying to treat rafting and ATV like optional side quests (the day is structured)
- You have a group with mismatched ATV eligibility and you don’t want to deal with tandem pairing rules
- You’re prone to booking anxiety around third-party pricing—if so, re-check your exact inclusions before you pay
If you get the option matching your needs, this is the kind of Bali day that’s hard to recreate with DIY planning.
