Ubud Fat-Tire Electric Bike Tour — Rice Terraces, Coffee & Village Trails
Ride an e‑assisted fat‑tire through Ubud’s rice paths and plantation roads to Tegallalang terraces, a traditional house visit and a kopi luwak tasting. This 3‑hour small‑group tour balances culture, geology and easy adventure.
The Experience
Before You Go
Morning departures beat the heat
Start early to enjoy cooler temperatures, softer light for photos, and firmer trails before midday humidity builds.
Bring a lightweight rain layer
Wet‑season showers can come suddenly; a packable waterproof is useful on clay tracks that become slippery when soaked.
Wear closed‑toe shoes
Fat tires and uneven village paths include roots and loose gravel—sturdy shoes improve control and comfort.
Hydrate and pace climbs
Bottled water is provided but carry a reusable bottle and let the motor assist on steep sections to conserve energy.

Hidden Gems
