Plunge through class III–IV rapids on the Telaga Waja, then trade adrenaline for aerial views on the Bali Swing. This full-day combo from Ubud pairs intense river paddling with photo-ready jungle platforms.
More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You push off into a river that seems to have a will of its own: Telaga Waja’s current grabs the raft, throws up a wall of spray, and presses you forward toward limestone walls and jungle-shaded drops. Later, after a hot lunch and the damp memory of rapids, you swap the helmet for a camera and step onto a giant swing that sends you out over a forested valley — a quick, vertiginous counterpart to the river’s sustained rush.

Arrive hydrated and fed
Bring water and eat a light breakfast before pickup — rafting is physically demanding and guides will thank you for stable energy levels.
Wear secure water shoes
Closed-toe sandals or water shoes with a heel strap reduce the chance of losing footwear in rapids and on wet platforms.
Protect electronics
Use a dry bag or leave phones locked in lockers provided at the rafting base; swings are photo-friendly but exposed.
Book morning slots in the dry season
Mornings typically mean calmer logistics and better light for swing photos; May–September has more predictable river conditions.
Water shoes or secure sandals
Offers traction in the raft and protection on rocky riverbanks.
