All Inclusive Bali Quad Bike and Ayung Rafting
Bali packs two very different adventures into one long day here: a two-hour quad bike ride around Ubud followed by 3.25 hours of white-water rafting on the Ayung River. You get rough ground, river spray, lunch, and private hotel transport without having to arrange each activity separately.
I like the practical value of private pickup and drop-off, and I like that the $84 price includes the quad bike, rafting gear, a professional guide, lunch, and bottled water. The main drawback is the length: with 10 hours on the schedule, plus active rides and a one-hour break, this is a full day rather than a gentle side trip.
Key points to know
- Two headline activities in one day: Ride a quad bike in the Ubud area, then raft the Ayung River.
- About 10 hours door to door: Private hotel pickup and drop-off make the long schedule easier to manage.
- A useful $84 package: Equipment, guides, lunch, and bottled water are included.
- One-hour pause between activities: This gives you a clear break before the rafting session.
- Three guide languages: The tour is offered with live guidance in English, Indonesian, or Malay.
- A strong early signal from the ratings: It holds five stars from two ratings, including Guido from Germany, who said everything worked very well and recommended doing it.
Two Bali adventures, one demanding day

The appeal is easy to understand. Quad biking gives you a motorized way to explore rough ground around Ubud, while rafting shifts the action to the Ayung River. You are not repeating the same activity all day, and the change from land to water keeps the schedule lively.
At $84 per person, the package is also easier to assess than a string of separate bookings. You pay one price for transport, equipment, professional guides, lunch, and bottled water. Personal expenses are not included, so bring some extra money if you expect to buy anything beyond the package.
You should also read the 10-hour duration honestly. This is not a quick morning outing. Pickup, transfers, the two-hour ride, a one-hour break, and the 3.25-hour rafting session create a full day. I would choose it when you want to make adventure the main event, not when you are trying to fit in several temples, markets, or quiet stops on the same date.

Private pickup makes the early start simpler

Your day begins with pickup in Bali and ends with drop-off back in Bali. The service is private for the hotel transfers, which is useful if you want to avoid arranging separate transport to Ubud and the Ayung River.
The exact pickup time depends on availability, so check the starting options before booking. Since this is a long activity with two separate venues, keep your schedule clear. Adding another major tour afterward would make the day unnecessarily tight.
The guide support is available in English, Indonesian, and Malay. That matters during both activities, since the instructions are not just background information. You will need to understand safety guidance and directions before handling a quad bike and before getting onto the river.
Two hours on a Ubud quad bike

The first active section is a two-hour quad bike ride in Ubud. The central idea is off-road exploration, so expect the attraction to come from changing ground and the physical feel of riding rather than from a slow sightseeing route.
Two hours is a useful length. It gives you enough time to settle into the machine and enjoy the route without turning the quad ride into the entire day. If you have never ridden before, the guide is there to help you with the activity and equipment, but the supplied information does not state the exact terrain, vehicle model, or whether you ride alone or with a passenger.
That missing detail is worth checking if it affects your decision. Some people want a solo ATV experience, while others prefer sharing with a companion. The package description confirms quad biking and professional guidance, but it does not specify the rider arrangement.
Expect this part to be active and potentially tiring. Wear clothing you can move in and do not choose anything you would be upset to get dirty. The official information does not list a clothing service or a change of clothes, so you should ask the operator if you want precise advice before departure.
The one-hour break between the rides

After the quad bike ride, you have a one-hour break in Ubud. This pause is more useful than it may first appear. You have time to eat lunch, drink water, and reset before the river portion.
Lunch and bottled water are included. That helps keep the day straightforward, especially since you are moving from a motor activity to a water activity. Still, the details of the menu and the place where lunch is served are not provided, so do not book this expecting a particular dish or dining setting.
The break also gives you a chance to ask the guide about the next stage. Use it to confirm the rafting sequence and any equipment instructions. Since both activities are included in the same package, the guide should be your main point of contact if you are unsure about timing.
One hour is long enough for a proper pause, but it is not a free sightseeing stop. I would not count on having time to explore Ubud independently unless the operator confirms it.

Three hours and 15 minutes on the Ayung River

The rafting session lasts 3.25 hours, or three hours and 15 minutes. That is the longer of the two activities, so the Ayung River section carries much of the day’s physical weight.
The experience is built around navigating rapids with a professional rafting guide. The supplied details do not state the exact river section, rapid grade, water conditions, or the size of the raft group. Those factors can change the feel of the outing, so ask for them if you need to judge how challenging the water will be.
What is clear is that this is not a brief splash on the river. More than three hours gives you a substantial rafting session, and it follows the quad ride rather than replacing it. You should be comfortable with a long active day and with getting wet.
The contrast is the main strength. On the quad bike, you control a vehicle over off-road ground. On the Ayung, you work with the guide and the river conditions. That change makes the package feel more varied than a single-activity booking.
Because personal expenses are excluded, check what the operator considers optional before setting out. The package covers rafting equipment, but it does not promise extras beyond the listed inclusions.
What the $84 price really covers

The $84 per-person price is reasonable if you want both activities and would otherwise need to pay separately for transfers, equipment, lunch, and guides. The value is strongest for someone who wants a simple, ready-made adventure day rather than a bare activity ticket.
Your included package covers:
- Private hotel pickup and drop-off
- A professional quad bike guide
- A professional rafting guide
- Quad bike and rafting equipment
- Lunch
- Bottled water
That list removes several common planning chores. You do not need to find your own way to the activity area, rent the basic equipment separately, or plan lunch between sessions.
The price does not cover personal expenses. The details also do not state whether photographs, souvenirs, extra food, or other optional purchases are available. Treat those as possible additional costs, not guaranteed inclusions.
The five-star rating from two ratings is a positive sign, but it is still a small sample. Guido from Germany, on a verified booking dated February 22, 2026, reported that everything worked well and said the experience was worth doing. That supports the basic organization of the package, but it is not enough evidence to promise that every departure will feel identical.
Who should book this combination?
I would point this tour toward an active adult or older child who wants two popular Bali adventure formats in one booking. It suits you if you enjoy variety, can handle a long day, and prefer private hotel transport over arranging several transfers yourself.
It is also a good match if you are staying in Bali and want the Ubud area to anchor your adventure day. The quad ride takes place in Ubud, and the rafting takes place on the Ayung River, so the day links two major activity zones without asking you to plan the route.
I would think twice if you want a relaxed cultural day, dislike getting wet, or prefer to spend most of your time sitting and looking at scenery. The schedule is active from start to finish, even with the one-hour break.
Pregnant women should not book this activity. The combination of quad biking and rafting makes that restriction especially important. If you have another health concern or are unsure about the physical demands, ask Bali Nau Tours before reserving.
Booking flexibility and useful planning notes

You can cancel up to 24 hours in advance for a full refund. That is helpful when your Bali plans may shift, but check the exact cancellation deadline shown for your selected date and time.
The reserve-now, pay-later option lets you hold a place without paying today. This can be useful when you are still arranging hotels or flights, though you should keep track of the payment terms attached to the booking.
Bali Nau Tours provides live guides in English, Indonesian, and Malay. No individual guide names are provided, so you should not expect to select a particular guide in advance.
Before booking, I would confirm the starting time, pickup details, rider arrangement, and any clothing guidance. The core inclusions are clear, but those operational details are not specified.
Should you book the Bali quad bike and rafting day?

Book it if you want a full, active day with two distinct Bali experiences and value having transport, equipment, lunch, and guides handled in one $84 package. The private hotel transfers and one-hour pause make the long schedule more manageable, and the mix of off-road riding and river rafting keeps the day from feeling repetitive.
Skip it if you want flexible sightseeing time, a short excursion, or a calm day around Ubud. The five-star score and Guido’s positive report suggest solid organization, but the small number of ratings means you should still confirm the practical details before paying.
