    Suksma to all at Lesung!

    We absolutely loved our Lesung Cooking Class experience! The food was delicious, and we were guided step by step through making a selection of traditional Balinese dishes, which made it really enjoyable and easy to follow. Putri was a fantastic teacher — charming, funny and so welcoming. One of our favourite parts was visiting the traditional Balinese compound house on site and learning about Balinese family culture while enjoying coffee and a delicious cookie. It was so much more than just a cooking class — it was a wonderful insight into Balinese food, culture and family life, with plenty of laughs along the way. We would highly recommend Lesung Cooking Class to anyone visiting Bali!

    非常棒的体验

    putri The staff is very patient,I really liked her explanation, the environment is overall great, and the food-making process is really immersive - you get to fully experience the local cuisine. However, the prices are a bit high. If they could be more affordable, I'd definitely recommend it as a must-visit spot when traveling to Bali.

    We had such a wonderful experience at the Lesung Bali Cooking Class! The food was incredibly flavorful and delicious, and I especially loved that the recipes were approachable and easy to replicate at home. The instructions were clear, informative, and delivered in such a fun and engaging way. It was the perfect combination of learning, cooking, and enjoying amazing Balinese food. A memorable experience and definitely one I would recommend to anyone visiting Bali!

    Delicious cooking class

    Our family thoroughly enjoyed the cooking class. I loved that you got to make the Balinese Complete Spice Mix base and then use this in a variety of ways to make lots of different dishes. We did it with a children and they loved it too.

    Balinese Authentic Cooking Class in Ubud: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Ubud.

    How much does Balinese Authentic Cooking Class in Ubud cost?

    +

    Prices start at $37 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Ubud usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Balinese Authentic Cooking Class in Ubud take?

    +

    Plan for about 5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Ubud is not rushed.

    Is Balinese Authentic Cooking Class in Ubud worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 86 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 303 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Ubud, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Balinese Authentic Cooking Class in Ubud?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Balinese Authentic Cooking Class in Ubud suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Balinese Authentic Cooking Class in Ubud?

    +

    Around 106 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Ubud can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Ubud and add a light layer if any part of the 5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Balinese Authentic Cooking Class in Ubud start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Ubud within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Ubud?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Ubud experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Private 1-Day Ubud Highlights Tour, Mount Batur Jeep Adventure, Mount Batur Sunrise Trekking (Private Tour and Breakfast at Restaurant). The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Ubud?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Ubud?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in Balinese Authentic Cooking Class in Ubud?

    +

    Included: Coffee and/or Tea; Balinese cake; Mineral water; Air-conditioned vehicle; and All fees and Taxes. Not included: Pick up and drop off outside of ubud area; Extra Transportation ( Nusa Dua and Jimbaran area is IDR 500.000 / Car ); Extra Transportation ( Uluwatu area is IDR 550.000 / Car ); and Extra Transportation ( Kuta, Seminyak, Sanur and Canggu area is IDR 450.000 / Car ). Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Does Balinese Authentic Cooking Class in Ubud include hotel pickup?

    +

    Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 637 listed pickup locations in and around Ubud. Be ready about 30 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.

    What languages is Balinese Authentic Cooking Class in Ubud offered in?

    +

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Balinese Authentic Cooking Class in Ubud?

    +

    Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.

    What happens to Balinese Authentic Cooking Class in Ubud if the weather is bad?

    +

    This experience depends on good weather. If it is canceled because of poor weather, you are offered a different date or a full refund.
