Overview

Escape Bali's busy tourist areas and discover the authentic countryside of Sidemen on a guided cycling tour led by locals born and raised in the village.

Cycle through peaceful rice terraces, hidden villages, scenic valley roads, and traditional farming communities while learning about everyday Balinese life and local traditions. Along the way, enjoy Balinese coffee with local snacks, visit a local arak producer, and, if timing allows, observe part of the distillation process.

Continue to the hidden Gembleng Waterfall, where you can relax, take photos, or simply enjoy the peaceful surroundings before cycling back through Sidemen's beautiful countryside.

Unlike typical Bali cycling tours, this experience offers genuine local insight, personal stories, and access to places beyond the usual tourist routes. Participants should be comfortable riding a bicycle and have moderate fitness.
