I loved making the coconut oil I had so much fun and everyone was so nice! I laughed a lot I was able to eat fresh fruit from their trees and feed the chickens. I learned of the history and attempted to try and peel the coconut but I was not the best lol. I went by myself and they took really good care of me.

We were so excited to do this tour and it did not disappoint. It was educational and very hands-on. Every step was explained thoroughly. We loved that it was an intimate experience in a local home.

Thank you for welcoming...

Thank you for welcoming us into your community. I have already recommended this class to others. We opted for the additional silversmithing class and would recommend that too.

Just book it now!

This was a wonderful activity right from the pickup from our hotel, you are taken to a traditional Balinese community where you are greeted by Puta the wife of Kadek your chauffeur for the tour. 4 generations live together in their community. Puta assisted by her sister take you through all the stages of making your coconut oil starting by removing the husk of the coconut draining the coconut milk and splitting open the coconut, the flesh of the coconut is then grated and added to the coconut milk some water is added and then this is boiled which releases the oils, the mixture is strained to take out the coconut flesh and once again boiled which releases the oils which floats on top of the mixture, the oil is blown off the surface of the mixture and finally stained to give you the oil, which you strain into a glass bottle for you to take away with you. At all stages of the process, you are encouraged to be hands on which makes it something special. Puta also does traditional Balinese cooking classes so this could be incorporated with the coconut oil making class. We actually added a silver making class to our trip where we both made a silver ring of our choice, this was another special class and the results are fantastic who knew it was possible to actually hand make your own piece of jewellery under the guidance of your skilful silversmith, the rings are truly hand made the only machinery used is to roll your silver ingot to width and thickness all the markings are carried out with hand tools. Don’t worry you get to practice before you attempt your actual ring and you will be amazed with the result. Both activities will provide you with special memories of your trip to Bali and this tour is wonderfully organised from start to finish. Just book it you won’t regret it
