Here’s an overview of your tour

We will start our day with an introduction of the philosophy of harmony in Bali, whereby every Balinese honors their connection with the divine, community, nature all around before we dive deep into the cultural aspect by being welcomed into a family complex, understand their structure, and understand the connection between the Balinese social norms and nature.

Followed by a walk among farm fields that will lead us into the sacred river at the heart of a preserved forested nature.

You are required to have your swimwear, and rash guard for the body river floating, and optional water purification.

The sacred river used to be Wayan Krishna's childhood playground and he shares it with us very happily.

The nature experience will be followed by a heart-cooked authentic Balinese meal at the family complex.
