A must do on your trip

My wife and I did this on our honeymoon and I will say it is one of the highlights of our trip. Our guide Putu was amazing. She took us around the markets and helped us cook the best meal we had on our trip. This tour is great way to get an authentic look at day to day life in Ubud.

Fantastic experience, and great food!

Putin’s was an wonderful, gracious host! Her family immediately made us feel welcome and like meme era of the family. The market tour was fascinating, trying new fruits, experiencing new scents, and watching daily Balinese life unfold. Both Putuband her cousin who helped with the cooking had good English and were able to easily communicate things about their culture and way of life. Highly recommended to those that want an truly unique and authentic cultural experience.

An absolute must!!!

Alles war so wie beschrieben. Wir wurden von Putu und ihrem Mann Pasta pünktlich am Hotel abgeholt. Das Event hat mit einem gemeinsamen Einkauf auf dem Markt begonnen. Die Gastgeberin hat uns dort bereits alles toll erklärt. Sie war total nett, das gemeinsame Kochen hat viel Spaß gemacht, das Essen war voll lecker. Ein absolutes Muss!!! für Leute, die in Ubud sind und Einblick in die dortige Küche und Kultur haben möchten. Sukmas, Putu, for a lovely and amazing experience!!! 🥰 Jeannette und Andreas Everything was as described. Putu and her husband Pasta picked us up at the hotel on time. The event started with a purchase at the market. The hostess explained everything to us there. She was really nice, cooking together was a lot of fun, the food was absolutely delicious. An absolute must!!! for people who are in Ubud and want to get an insight into the local cuisine and culture. Sukmas, Putu, for a beautiful and amazing experience! ! ! We will always fondly remember the great cooking event!!!Jeannette + Andreas
