fede punto2025-03-03 Il tour al local market di Denpasar è stato un vero e proprio viaggio nei sapori di Bali e dell’Indonesia. Abbiamo assaggiato piatti tradizionali, frutta mai provata prima, bevande e dolcetti tipici. Tutto consumano come pic-nic sulla riva del fiume che passa al lato del mercato, molto carino. La guida Agung, a cui va un ringraziamento speciale, ci ha raccontato tantissimo sulla cucina locale ma non solo anche sulla tradizione e cultura balinese. È stato davvero un ottimo modo per avvicinarsi a una tradizione culinaria e non, che ci ha appassionato si dal primo giorno su quest’isola. Ann Halloran2025-03-03 Having spent a number of months in Ubud and enjoying the many food restaurants here, it was a pleasant surprise to uncover some hidden gems on the tour which I have since returned to! The tour guides are passionate about food and gave a good insight into Balinese culture as well. Highly recommended! Barbara Standaert2025-03-01 I had so much fun discovering these hidden gems in Ubud. It was a fantastic experience meeting new people, stumbling upon unexpected places, and enjoying amazing food along the way. The guide was both humorous and knowledgeable about Balinese culture (off course he is a local :)) and he was happy to answer any questions. I would definitely recommend joining the tour, perhaps at the beginning of your stay, so you can revisit the spots later and try more of their dishes. VICTOR SITARA2025-02-16 My experience was wonderful on my tour. The curation of restaurants was great. Each was a different and introduced me to a variety of new plant based dishes. I highly recommend!!! Hanyu Zhu2025-02-06 What a pleasure to join this vegan food hunting experience in Ubud. I never thought vegan food can be that yummy. If you are in Ubud and wanna try out different vegan food/restaurants, this is gonna be a great opportunity because it offers a little bit of everything so you don’t miss out all the great spots! Highly recommend it to anyone:) Mauricio Disilvestro2025-02-01 I had a lovely experience in this tour. It allowed me to discover different yummy restaurants in Ubud that I then visited again during my stay. The guide was well prepared and always willing to answer questions. I fully recommend it! Cacau Nic2025-01-31 The culinary tour in Ubud was exceptional! Visiting a curated selection of special restaurants, we savored a variety of delicious dishes. The guided walks between venues offered a refreshing way to experience Ubud’s charm, a departure from the usual modes of exploration. The team’s thoughtful selection of establishments made the journey delightful. Highly recommend this unique culinary adventure! Julie Zhu2025-01-30 I always thought vegan food would just be salads and vegetables, but the Bali Culinary Tour completely changed my perspective. We visited five amazing restaurants, and I was honestly blown away by how creative and delicious the dishes were. Even at a place I’d been to before, the organizer picked dishes I hadn’t tried—and they were incredible. What stood out the most was how much thought and care the guide puts into the tour. The restaurants he chose focus on conscious eating, using organic ingredients, natural flavors, and avoiding refined sugars and chemicals. It’s not just about the food—it’s about connecting with nature and understanding Bali’s unique approach to sustainable living. The organizer is so warm and knowledgeable who is clearly passionate about creating this experience. The tour was also a great way to meet new people; spending four or five hours together made it easy to connect and bond. If you’re new to Bali, I can’t recommend this tour enough. It’s such a special way to discover the island’s food scene while learning about the deeper connection between food, nature, and our well-being. Thank you for such a memorable and inspiring experience! Linus Fleck2025-01-28 What an amazing experience! Did the food tour in Ubud with Bali Culinary Tours and was overwhelmed but the selection of top restaurants. All the food was to notch! Really really high quality ingredients and soooo tasty! I also really loved the short walks between the restaurants through the beautiful small streets of the area. The guide has a lot of knowledge about the food and the way it's prepared. Can highly recommend doing one of the food tours with Bali Culinary Tours! Thanks a lot for the great time! Robyn Horwitz2025-01-26 I believe the best way to experience a new country or culture is through food 😋 It’s very hard to find a good tour that caters for vegan diets but Bali Culinary Tours is very inclusive and plant-forward! I did the Denpasar night market tour which is authentic Balinese/ Indonesian street food and there were loads of delicious vegan-friendly options from tasting durian to eating fresh gado-gado with the most amazing peanut sauce, to indulging in sweet lak laks (my favourite). Our guide, Agung, was knowledgeable and shared a lot about traditional food and ingredients. We really enjoyed spending the evening with him. This tours are a great experience for foodies and travelers who want to dive into Bali’s authentic street food scene and connect more with local culture. Bring your friends and family or enjoy a night meeting new people. You’ll love it!
