Behind the boutique façade of restaurants, hotels and galleries, there is a Bali that only a few travelers experience... the Bali that belongs to the rice farmers, the waddling ducks, feeding cows and to those of us who take a few moments to acknowledge what Mother Earth has given us. Explore local community, religion and ceremony while wandering through the villages that depend on the rice fields and the rush of a mountain stream for their livelihood...
We invite you to join one of our eco-treks through Ubud's outskirts and into the villages and temples around Bali. Keep Walking Tours will take you on asphalt roads, thru dirt paths, across bamboo bridges and into ravines and rice paddies... With the assistance of our special eco-cultural guides you will discover the fascinating and magical serenity in one of our world's last remaining traditional animist cultures.
We quote some prices in Rp and some in US$. Please note that the current exchange rate is approx Rp 9,000 per US $1.00.
