Nestled in the lush landscapes of Ubud, Abiansila Adventures offers an unforgettable experience that combines the excitement of off-road riding with the stunning beauty of Bali’s natural scenery. In this comprehensive review, we’ll delve into what makes this tour a must-try for thrill-seekers and nature lovers alike, and why ATV riding in Bali should be at the top of your adventure list.

Planning Your ATV Riding in Bali

Allocate about five hours total for the ATV tour. Travel time from the center of Ubud to Abiansila Adventures is approximately 30 minutes. Upon arrival, head to the reception desk to fill out some paperwork and choose your ATV tour package if you haven’t already booked online. Booking online will save you approximately $10.

How to Get There

The best way to reach Abiansila Adventures Bali ATV is by hiring a private driver. This not only ensures a comfortable and stress-free journey but also allows you the flexibility to explore nearby attractions, such as a coffee plantation, rice patty, or ubud swing, after your ATV adventure. The road to the Cretya Sunset is rough and not advisable for motorbikes unless you are a highly experienced rider.

Choosing Your ATV: Find the Right Fit

Abiansila Adventures offers three ATV sizes:

  • UTV 800CC
  • ATV 850CC “THE BEAST”
  • ATV 450CC “THE SAVAGE”
  • Basic 250CC

Most people opt for the 250CC, which is perfect for beginners. If you plan to ride tandem with your partner, upgrading to the larger bike is highly recommended. I chose the 450CC, which turned out to be the best choice because it was just the guide and another couple. It allowed us to open up the bikes on the track and access two additional river tracks, which quickly became my favorite parts of the adventure.

Preparing for Your Ride

Once you’ve selected your ATV, head upstairs to the Cretya Sunset pool deck area where you’ll be welcomed with a refreshing mango juice drink. Relax and wait for the next shuttle that will take you to the ATV track.

Upon arriving at the main ATV camp, you’ll receive a locker to store your belongings. You’ll also be given baggies to use as socks before putting on boots—make sure to tie them tightly to keep water out. You’ll then receive a helmet and be assigned an ATV based on the size you chose.

The instructor will run through a quick demonstration, showing you how the bike works and providing a few helpful tips. Before hitting the main track, you’ll be taken to a short practice track to get a feel for the ATV.

The ATV Riding Experience in Bali

Your ATV adventure begins on the jungle track, taking you through diverse terrains including the bamboo forest and Gorilla Cave. You’ll navigate various river tracks, each offering a unique and exhilarating challenge. This is truly the best ATV tour in Bali.

During the ride, there will be a scheduled break at a rest area where a small shop sells sodas and coconuts. Be aware that the drinks are relatively expensive and come with a service charge and tax. For example, a can of soda cost around $2.65.

The main sections of the track include:

  • Training Track: A short practice session.
  • Bamboo Forest: A scenic route.
  • River Tracks: Several wet tracks, with larger ATVs giving access to additional river tracks.
  • Outer Circuit and Donut Circuit: Wet tracks with challenging curves and turns.
  • Gorilla Cave: An exciting tight tunnel segment.

Post-Ride Relaxation

After completing the 90-minute course, you have the option to shower either at the track location or at the main location, which offers nicer facilities.

Once cleaned up and changed, head back to the pool deck for a complimentary meal. You can choose from local fried noodles, chicken fried rice, or pasta aglio e olio. The portions are tasty but we were still little hungry afterwards. A glass of water will also be provided.

After your meal, feel free to enjoy the pool, soak in the view of the rice paddies, order more food or drinks from the bar, or head back home. If you’re interested, professional photos of your tour are available for purchase.

What to Bring for Your ATV Adventure

  • Wear old clothes: They will get muddy.
  • Camera: Bring a phone or action camera, and consider a waterproof case.
  • Change of clothes: For after the ride.
  • Sunscreen: Protect your skin from the sun.
  • Cash: For any additional expenses, like drinks or photos.
