The journey itself is the destination

Whether you want to experience the cooking class or the traditional purification ceremony, the Balikaru team will be waiting for you in the morning in our small mountain village at the foot of the mighty Mount Batukaru.

But your exciting day begins much earlier, around 7 a.m. to be precise, when you are picked up from your hotel or guesthouse. And there it is, the colorful VW Jeep.

As you slide into the open-top vehicle, you can’t help but feel a sense of freedom wash over you. The Jeep, with its cheerful colors – vivid yellow, fiery red, or refreshing blue – beckons you to embark on an unforgettable journey and pure nostalgia. With the wind tousling your hair, you set off into the mountains, where every moment is a feast for your senses. The breathtaking green rice terraces unfold before your eyes, the crisp scent of a mountain river fills the air, and the tantalizing aroma of bananas frying at roadside stalls tempts your taste buds.

But this isn’t just a drive; it’s an exhilarating experience. The rugged VW-Jeep thrives where others might falter, effortlessly maneuvering along narrow, winding roads that lead you deep into Bali’s heart. Each bump and curve adds a thrill to your adventure, and the VW Jeep is perfectly adapted to driving on rough roads off the beaten track.

The scenery is nothing short of spectacular, and as you journey, the world around you comes alive. You’ll find yourself stopping to marvel at local farmers tending their fields, wave at playful children, or capture yet another stunning photograph of the majestic Mount Batukaru, standing proudly as Bali’s second-highest peak.

Buckle up, because this isn´t just a two-hour transfer; the ride in the VW Jeep is so much more; it’s about the joy of the journey itself and anything but boring!
