Full description
This is a 5-hour experience in Ubud. It is run by Paon Escape Balinese Cooking Class, an operator we book with directly rather than through a reseller, which is why we can hold your place with them before we treat your booking as final.
A Balinese village day is about the compound and the rice cycle. A family compound is a walled group of pavilions around a household temple, laid out to a fixed pattern with the shrine to the mountain side; the kitchen and the rice barn have their own places in it. Around it the paddies run on the subak calendar, planting, flooding, harvesting and drying on the road, and the fields are worked by hand and by hand tractor. Mornings start early: the market at dawn, the offerings, breakfast of rice and coffee. Visits like this are hosted by the family, and a few words of Indonesian, a sarong for the temple and shoes off at the door are the courtesies that matter.
The price covers local guide, Access to the fireflies conservation area, Guided night walk through the rice fields and Mineral water. It does not cover Dinner, so budget for those separately. Everything included is listed in full on this page; if something is not on that list, assume it is not in the price.
Paon Escape Balinese Cooking Class sends the meeting point and time by email as soon as the booking is confirmed. We need at least one day's notice, and we confirm the date with Paon Escape Balinese Cooking Class before treating your booking as final. If they cannot take your date we tell you and refund you rather than leave you waiting.
