What to Expect
Culinary master class
Let's start this delightful day by visiting the local market to find ingredients for the master class. After getting everything we need, we will head to the authentic village of Laplapan near Ubud. Here you will be greeted by a professional Balinese chef who will guide you to prepare 3 appetizers, 4 main dishes, and dessert. Now it's time for the most enjoyable part - a communal meal and tasting of your creations. Mmm, delicious!
Perfect coffee at the plantations
Next stop on the itinerary is a coffee plantation nearby. The average air temperature here is +24, and the plantation is located at an altitude of 700 meters above sea level, allowing the cultivation of the "right" coffee. You will walk through the green fields and see the process of making the drink from green sprout to roasting the beans. And enjoy a cup of aromatic coffee surrounded by a tropical forest.
Rice terraces
Our gastronomic tour will conclude at the picturesque rice terraces of Tegallalang. This is definitely a must-see place in Bali!
