Review of Rafting Tour on Bali
It was a super fun and great experience to participate in rafting. Everything was arranged with pickup at the hotel in the morning, where we were driven to the starting point for where the rafting started. While we were on the river, our driver drove us down to the end point, where he drove us out to a local family who had prepared a delicious lunch for us, then we were driven home to the hotel.

Fantastic fun and beautiful trip
Fantastic ride on the river through the jungle. The level of service was top, both in terms of pickup, transportation, instruction, the river tour itself, guides and subsequent lunch and walk. A really beautiful and fun trip with fine action level for a family ages 7-46 without experience with river rafting 😊
Response from the operator: Kære Anne, Tusind tak for din skønne anmeldelse. Det glæder os at høre, at I havde en sjove og skønne oplevelser ned langs floden, og at både service, guider og dagens program levede op til jeres forventninger 🌟Og dejligt at turen også passede perfekt til jeres niveau, selvom det var første gang, I prøvede river rafting. Det er godt med lidt action, når det foregår under sikre forhold og dygtige guider bag roret ;) Vi håber at byde jer velkommen igen til nye eventyr på Bali eller i resten af det magiske Indonesien 💛🇮🇩 De bedste hilsner fra Team Cili Travel 🌿

Det glæder os, at Rias var med til at gøre jeres rejse helt særlig, og at I nød hans fortællinger om Balis kultur og traditioner.

Why this scores 73
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Rafting Adventure 18 km and Balinese Village Life Tour with Lunch: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Kuta.
How much does Rafting Adventure 18 km and Balinese Village Life Tour with Lunch cost?
+
Prices start at $69 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Kuta usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Rafting Adventure 18 km and Balinese Village Life Tour with Lunch take?
+
Plan for about 8 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 Kuta is not rushed.
Is Rafting Adventure 18 km and Balinese Village Life Tour with Lunch worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 73 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 19 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Kuta, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Rafting Adventure 18 km and Balinese Village Life Tour with Lunch?
+
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 Rafting Adventure 18 km and Balinese Village Life Tour with Lunch suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Rafting Adventure 18 km and Balinese Village Life Tour with Lunch?
+
Around 7 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 Kuta 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 Kuta and add a light layer if any part of the 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Rafting Adventure 18 km and Balinese Village Life Tour with Lunch 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 Kuta 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 Kuta?
+
On Outty we rank every Kuta experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include East Bali Tour: Gate of Heaven, Water Palace, Sleeping Gajah, Ubud Day Tour: Sacred Monkey Forest, Tegenungan Waterfall, Rice Terrace, Bali 5 Days and 4 Nights Private Tour - Best and Famous Site. 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 Kuta?
+
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 Kuta?
+
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.
