The Itinerary in Detail
The day kicks off with a pickup from your hotel or villa—an appreciated touch that ensures you don’t need to worry about transportation. Once on location, the adventure divides into two main parts: river tubing and ATV riding.
Gekko Tubing Bali
First up is the river tubing experience at Gekko Tubing Bali, where you’ll spend approximately 1.5 hours navigating 9 kilometers of Class II+ rapids.

What really makes the tubing stand out is the sense of adventure. As one reviewer noted, “The river water is so clear. The route and tunnel definitely bring another level of fun.” The guides will stop periodically to take photos, so you can focus on enjoying the ride without worrying about missing moments.

Bali Pertiwi Adventure ATV Ride
After the tubing, a hearty set menu lunch provides a break before the adrenaline kicks back up with the ATV ride. This 2-hour session is designed to give you a taste of Bali’s countryside—riding through rice terraces, jungles, rivers, and villages with a professional instructor. The bikes are automatic 250cc quads, which are powerful enough for a mix of technical terrain and fun downhill sections.
The guides here are also highly praised for their friendliness and safety focus. One reviewer mentioned that their guide was “excellent and very friendly,” even helping out when a bike broke down with a flat tyre. For those craving a challenge, the instructor offers guidance on tackling tougher slopes or climbing back uphill—meaning even confident beginners can enjoy a bit of a challenge.
The Value of the Package
Priced at $110 per person, this tour includes all safety equipment, lockers, towels, showers, and shoes—no hidden costs. The lunch adds even more value, transforming this into a full-day experience rather than just a quick thrill. The safety equipment and professional guides further justify the cost, especially considering the peace of mind they offer in high-adrenaline activities.
While the price might seem steep compared to single activities, the convenience of door-to-door private transfers and the variety packed into one day make it a solid deal. Reviewers consistently highlight the excellent service, with drivers arriving early and guides sharing interesting facts about Bali’s landscapes.
The itinerary is well-paced, with pickups typically arranged in advance to suit your hotel location—whether Ubud or south Bali. The tour lasts around 6 to 8 hours, which includes activity time, lunch, and transport. Expect to be on the move most of the day, with the actual tubing and ATV sessions lasting about 1.5 and 2 hours, respectively.
The transport is air-conditioned, comfortable, and private, which is a big plus for those wanting to avoid crowded shuttles or confusing directions. It’s recommended to wear casual, comfortable clothes—think sporty shorts and T-shirts—and bring essentials such as sunscreen, a camera, and a change of clothes.
One reviewer emphasized the professionalism of the team, describing the trip as “brilliant from beginning to end,” and felt very safe throughout both activities. The flexibility for vegetarian dietary options was also noted, catering to different preferences.
