Top Ubud Wine Making Workshops

Live like a local among the locals with this private hands-on cooking lesson. Join your host, Putu, her grandparents, her husband, and their children for lunch or dinner in their traditional compound home. Learn about the spices Putu uses, the traditional Balinese medicines she makes, and the rice, fruit, and animals her grandparents tend on their farm as you prepare and eat a Balinese feast, washed down with local alcohol.

The ideal experience for foodie travelers—an authentic Balinese cooking class, hosted by a local chef in the jungle surroundings of Ubud. Learn about the spices and ingredients used in Balinese cookery and discover new flavors at the morning market, and choose your ingredients for the class. Then, at the workshop, learn how to use them using traditional techniques, and eat your masterpieces as a sit down meal.

Batik—hand-painted fabric—is a vital part of Indonesian culture. Discover how it works and create your very own piece of colorful fabric art, the perfect souvenir, in a charming studio outside Ubud. After sketching out your design, draw it on the fabric in hot wax, allowing you to apply dye to selected areas only: when the wax is washed off, the outline will remain in the original color.

Ubud’s sacred energies are rich and ancient, but it can be difficult to discover them on your own. Experience them in an intimate group on this powerful and enriching spiritual journey. Begin with a water purification ritual at peaceful and less-visited Mengening Temple, then eat breakfast at a beautiful restaurant. After this, visit a traditional healer who usually serves only local people and benefit from her wisdom with your guide as translator.

Book this private car hire and driver to get wherever you need to be in Bali safely and stress-free. You don’t need to deal with taxis, scooters, or any other form of transportation. Just know your reliable, English speaking driver will be waiting to take you and your private party directly where you need to be.

Get a taste of the authentic Bali in a sustainable way when you join a cooking class at this community-run organic farm and cooking school. Pick veggies from the green garden, tour a traditional market (morning experience only), and prepare a delicious meal of six Indonesian dishes. Once you and your small group have prepared and shared your feast, take home a recipe book to recreate the flavors.

One of the best ways to experience a place is through its cuisine. You’ll get the chance to learn about Balinese culture and tradition during this fun cooking class in a Balinese home. Balinese food is unique, and very different from other Indonesian and Asian cuisines. Learn why, and get the chance to practice the techniques you’ll need to recreate Balinese dishes at home. You’ll also visit a local market and rice fields for a whole sightseeing experience.

There’s no better way to get to know a culture than through its food, and this Balinese cooking class on an organic farm outside Ubud is so authentic you even use a traditional wood-fired stove. Learn about organic farming and Bali’s subak system, recognized with UNESCO World Heritage status, pick organic ingredients from the garden, and prepare a meal of six delicious Balinese favorites along with healthy juices.

Cycling is an amazing way to discover rural Bali. From rice harvesting to timeless ceremonies, experience local life on a guided cycle tour with hotel transfers. Before you start your mellow downhill ride, hit the scenic Tegalalang Rice Terrace, learn about traditional farming practices at a coffee plantation, and capture photos of Lake Batur and the Mt. Batur volcano, and once you’re done there’s an Indonesian lunch.

This cycling is unique because it starts from a temple that has a history with a large spring, we know it as Tirta Empul Temple and visits the residents' homes where you will see how the Balinese people live their daily lives.
