Amazing cooking experience
Amazing experience. We lucked out and had the market tour and cooking class all to ourselves (just two of us). The class was very educational, the people were exceptionally friendly, and the food turned out great. Would highly recommend!

Authentic Bali! - Discover Market, Cooking Class and Family Home
Unforgettable day - we started the morning with authentic market tour to learn about shopping for local ingredients. Next we were welcomed into the family home to learn about traditions and delicious local recipes. Chef Nyomen is very friendly and generous with his cultural insights and cooking secrets. Delicious food and great experience for all ages. Wonderful experience for my whole family.

Great family cooking class experience Bali KDongDing
Wow. We went to the cooking class experience as part of our 25th wedding anniversary. This was a day we will never forget from the time Wayan picked us up from our villa, to experiencing the market with Mr Black the chef and understanding the Balinese culture of cooking, family life. The cooking class was very informative showing us some amazing technique's, what ingredients to use and substitute if needed, and how to cook several dishes. Can’t thank Wayan, Mahendra (Mr Black) and their family enough for teaching us how to cook Balinese food and welcoming us into their home. Highly recommend this class 5*

Why this scores 70
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Exclusive Authentic Balinese Cooking Class at Family home: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Ubud.
How much does Exclusive Authentic Balinese Cooking Class at Family home cost?
+
Prices start at $50 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 Exclusive Authentic Balinese Cooking Class at Family home take?
+
Plan for about 6 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 Exclusive Authentic Balinese Cooking Class at Family home worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 70 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 57 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable family friendly in Ubud, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Exclusive Authentic Balinese Cooking Class at Family home?
+
No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.
Is Exclusive Authentic Balinese Cooking Class at Family home suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 6-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Exclusive Authentic Balinese Cooking Class at Family home?
+
Around 20 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 6-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Exclusive Authentic Balinese Cooking Class at Family home 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 Mount Batur Jeep Adventure, Best of Ubud Full-Day Tour with Jungle Swing, Full-Day Tour to Water Temples and UNESCO Rice Terraces in Bali. 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.
