Bali Ayung River White Water Rafting

Raft 12 km of Ayung River’s Class II–III rapids with an expert guide, plus lunch, hot showers, and transfers or private boat options.

Getting started

If you select a pickup option, your day starts with round-trip transfers from your Ubud hotel or from Ubud, Seminyak, Kuta, Sanur, or Canggu, depending on your variant. Choose a meeting point variant instead and go directly to the rafting check-in area. After check-in, you meet your professional rafting guide and get ready for the safety briefing and paddling instruction.

What to expect

Ayung River white water rafting experience

Ayung River is Bali's longest rafting river, known here for 12 km of Class II–III white water that suits beginners, families, and more experienced paddlers. You spend around two hours on the water, moving through a jungle gorge, past rice terraces, and by hidden waterfalls.

Features

• You tackle 12 km of Class II–III rapids on Ayung River, Bali's longest rafting river, with sections that run through a jungle gorge, alongside rice terraces, and past hidden waterfalls. Licensed local guides adjust the pace so beginners, families, and first-timers feel comfortable, and children from seven can join with an adult.
• Before getting on the raft, your expert rafting guide delivers a full safety briefing and clear paddling instruction so you know what to do in the rapids. All safety equipment is provided, including a life jacket, helmet, and paddle, and a dry bag is available so small items stay protected during the run.
• Every boat has a professional rafting guide who navigates the river, calls paddling commands, and points out features along the jungle gorge and Ayung valley as you go. Insurance coverage is included throughout the rafting activity, adding an extra layer of reassurance while you are on the water.
• Once you finish paddling, you head to hot shower and changing room facilities where you can rinse off and change into dry clothes. A towel and locker for valuables are included at the finish point, so you can store personal items securely until you are ready to leave.
• After changing, you sit down to an Indonesian buffet lunch that looks out over the Ayung valley, with mineral water provided. All variants include this lunch and mineral water, and you can add a camera rental or photo or video package if you want images from the river, noting that camera rental and the photo or video package are not included in the base price.
• Depending on the variant you choose, you either return via round-trip transfers from Ubud hotels, use round-trip transfers from Ubud, Seminyak, Kuta, Sanur, or Canggu, or depart independently from the meeting point. If you book a private boat for your group, you raft in a private raft reserved just for your party, while shared options place you with other guests for the run.
