The Experience
Before You Go
Hydrate and top up electrolytes
Bring a refillable bottle—guides carry bottled water but an electrolyte drink helps on hot stretches.
Wear closed-toe shoes
Expect some dirt, short climbs, and quick dismounts; sturdy sneakers or light trail shoes protect feet and improve control.
Bring small change
Carry cash for temple donations, coffee, and local snacks—many stalls are cash-only.
Check health restrictions
The swing and some activities are not recommended for pregnant travelers or those with back/heart issues—disclose conditions when booking.

Do you provide pickup and drop-off?
Yes—hotel pickup and drop-off in Ubud are included; confirm your pickup point and time when booking.
