Immerse yourself in authentic Balinese village life during this hands-on cooking experience in a village, nestled near Mt. Batukaru.

From the moment you arrive in the small mountain village, you become part of Balinese life. You’ll stroll through the rice terraces, meet the farmers, and pick fresh herbs straight from the garden.
Learn to play the Rindik, the bamboo instrument of the farmer, before starting your culinary journey. You prepare two kinds of Jamu, Indonesia’s ancient and very healthy herbal drink, before creating a full Balinese meal in Paon Bali, our open-air kitchen. There’s so much fun while cooking a huge culinary variety. It also includes Sate Lilit, grilled at Gerobak, our live bamboo grill, and Lak Lak, a traditional Balinese dessert cooked in a clay pot.
The sounds of nature surround you while cooking, laughing, and sharing stories with the family. After enjoying your homemade lunch, you can even try planting rice, feed our cow “Manis,” or discover the stingless bees and their rare, healthy honey.

Every moment feels real and personal—a genuine connection to Bali’s culture, traditions, and the warmth of its people.
