Ubud: Swing and ATV Adventure

Planning a day filled with adventure and stunning scenery? The Ubud Swing and ATV experience offers a perfect mix of adrenaline and scenic views, all within a manageable 3-hour window. Whether you’re a thrill-seeker or simply looking to see Bali from a different perspective, this tour offers a taste of Bali’s lush landscapes in a fun, organized package.

What we love most about this experience is how it combines two very different ways of exploring – the exhilarating swing above rice paddies and the rugged off-road ATV ride through tropical terrain. The views from the swing are guaranteed to make your social media feed pop, while the ATV journey takes you off the beaten path to discover hidden corners of the island.

One thing to consider is that the tour lasts only about three hours, so if you’re looking for a full day of activities, you might want to supplement it with other adventures. Also, participants need to be at least 12 years old and in good health, making it a family-friendly yet slightly adventurous outing.

This tour is ideal for travelers who crave some excitement but also want to enjoy Bali’s natural beauty in an authentic and engaging way. It’s great for those with limited time in Ubud but eager to pack in memorable experiences.
