Question 1

Is this an Ayung rafting tour or a rafting activity?

Accepted Answer

It is both. This Ayung rafting tour is a guided rafting activity above Kedewatan, $31 per person for two or more, lunch included. Two guests from an Ubud hotel pay $95. The US dollar figure is the activity price, not a markup on a local fare. You pay that total on the spot, in rupiah, at the Rp amount printed under it. Nothing is added when you arrive, and there is no second price. For the ATV, Ayung rafting, Wos tubing, Pejeng cycling, Swing Heaven, and Aloha Ubud Swing, you can pay on the spot by credit card (Visa, Mastercard, American Express), Apple Pay, Google Pay, PayPal, Wise, or cash in rupiah, US dollars, euros, or Australian dollars. This website does not take a card number.

Question 2

What is the Ubud river rafting price?

Accepted Answer

The Ubud river rafting price on this desk is $31 per person for two or more guests on the Ayung (Class II–III above Kedewatan). Two who self-meet pay $62. Two from an Ubud hotel pay $95 (Rp 1.573.000) with the Rp 550.000 shuttle once. From Seminyak or the south coast the shuttle is Rp 650.000 once, so two guests pay $101 (Rp 1.673.000). Lunch, gear, guide, and insurance for ages 6–65 are in the sport price. Last booking 12 pm.

Question 3

How much is Ayung rafting near Ubud?

Accepted Answer

$31 per person for two or more guests. Minimum two. A larger raft does not lower the rate further. Lunch, gear, guide, and insurance are in that number. The hotel shuttle is Rp 550.000 from Ubud or Rp 650.000 from the south coast for pickup and drop-off, or you self-meet.

Question 4

How much is Ayung rafting in rupiah?

Accepted Answer

Rp 511.500 per person, minimum two, so Rp 1.023.000 for a pair. With the Ubud hotel shuttle, two guests pay Rp 1.573.000. That is the sport price at the dollar rate Rp 16.500 per US$1 plus the Rp 550.000 shuttle, with nothing else added, and the invoice prints the same rupiah total.

Question 5

What is the age limit for river rafting in Bali on this desk?

Accepted Answer

There is no single island-wide age rule. On this desk, Ayung rafting suits guests from about age 7 with basic swimming confidence. Activity insurance covers ages 6–65. Tell us every guest’s age on WhatsApp before you book. Stairs to the put-in matter as much as the birthday.

Question 6

Is this the Ayung, or a different river?

Accepted Answer

The Ayung. The canyon run used for commercial rafting near Ubud passes jungle cliffs and small waterfalls upstream of Kedewatan. The Wos is the tubing river.

Question 7

Ayung rafting or Telaga Waja rafting — which is this?

Accepted Answer

This is the Ayung, above Kedewatan near Ubud: Class II–III, about 2 hours on site, last booking 12 pm. Telaga Waja is a different, longer river in east Bali (Karangasem, roughly 1 hour 15 minutes or more from Ubud) and is not sold on this desk. Pick the Ayung for a short Ubud morning; pick Telaga Waja with an east-Bali operator for a longer, steeper day.

Question 8

What do you see and do on the Ayung rafting run?

Accepted Answer

About 2 hours in all, through a jungle gorge: Class II–III rapids, small waterfalls and stone carvings on the cliffs, and a calm stretch where you can swim or float. At the finish there are showers, a changing room, and a buffet lunch, all in the $31 ticket.

Question 9

What does Class II–III feel like?

Accepted Answer

Waves and a few drops that splash the boat, with flat water between them. You will paddle. You do not need rafting experience. You should be comfortable if you fall in and the guide pulls you back.

Question 10

How much time should we keep free for rafting?

Accepted Answer

About 2 hours at the river, including the briefing, the stairs, the run, a shower, and lunch. From an Ubud hotel, keep about 3 hours. From south Bali, add the longer drive each way. It is a morning start: the last rafting booking is 12 pm (noon).

Question 11

What is the last booking time for Ayung rafting?

Accepted Answer

12 pm (12:00 noon, Bali time). Book a morning start at or before 12 pm. There is no afternoon rafting start on this desk — WhatsApp confirms your pickup time so you reach the put-in by then.

Question 12

How many steps are there down to the Ayung rafting put-in?

Accepted Answer

Every Ayung start is a stair down the gorge wall — there is no no-stairs Ayung rafting put-in, and any operator who promises one is describing a different river. Other Ayung operators publish roughly 300–600 steps at their put-ins. Our stair sits above Kedewatan; the exact steps used can shift after heavy rain, so the pin and the stair go out the afternoon before. Take them slowly, wear strapped sandals, and tell us about knee or mobility limits before you book so we can say honestly whether this run suits you.

Question 13

How far do you raft on the Ayung with this ticket?

Accepted Answer

This ticket is timed, not sold by a kilometre figure: about 2 hours on site, briefing to lunch, from the put-in above Kedewatan. That is a shorter visit than the long Ayung runs — on the same river, Mason Adventures at Kedewatan markets a 12 km run with about 1.5–2 hours on the water, and Ayung sections across operators run roughly 10–14 km. Expect a shorter section and less paddling here, which is why this ticket fits after an early ATV. If a long 12 km run is the day you want, book a long-run operator and compare the time on the water in writing.

Question 14

Can we book a private raft on the Ayung?

Accepted Answer

Departures are shared rafts with a guide. If your group is under the minimum and nobody else is on the departure, a private-raft supplement may apply — ask on WhatsApp before the day and we will confirm the amount in writing. Nothing about a private raft is charged at the river.

Question 15

Is Ayung rafting worth it?

Accepted Answer

Yes, if you want a guided Class II–III paddle with lunch included for $31 per person, minimum two, in about 2 hours on site above Kedewatan. The guide is in the raft, and the finish has showers and a buffet. It fits after a morning ATV, about 15 minutes from the Sedang arena. Skip it if stairs are a problem, or if you want a published 12 km long run — Mason Adventures at Kedewatan markets that longer section on the same river. A no-paddle float is Wos tubing, not this ticket.

Question 16

How long is it from the ATV arena to Ayung rafting?

Accepted Answer

About 15 minutes by car from the Sedang ATV arena (All New Bali Adventure) to the Ayung rafting put-in above Kedewatan. That short transfer is why an early ATV plus rafting fits one morning: quad first, about 15 minutes to the river, and rafting at or before the 12 pm last booking.

Question 17

How do I book Ayung River rafting?

Accepted Answer

For the ATV, Ayung rafting, Wos tubing, Pejeng cycling, Swing Heaven, and Aloha Ubud Swing, you can pay on the spot by credit card (Visa, Mastercard, American Express), Apple Pay, Google Pay, PayPal, Wise, or cash in rupiah, US dollars, euros, or Australian dollars. This website does not take a card number.

Question 18

Do I pay for Ayung River rafting before the day? How do I know it is not a scam?

Accepted Answer

No. Nothing is paid before you arrive: no deposit, and no card number on this website. You book, WhatsApp confirms the date, and you pay the printed total on the spot at the Ayung put-in. If anyone asks for a deposit in this desk's name, do not pay it. Message +62 817 7572 3663 first.

Question 20

Is the hotel shuttle for Ayung River rafting private, and does the driver wait?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The hotel shuttle is a private car for your group only, not a shared bus: Rp 550.000 from Ubud, Rp 650.000 from the south coast, once per booking, not per person. A quality driver arranged by this desk picks you up at your hotel, waits while you ride, raft, tube, or swing, and drives you back. The shuttle is optional. You can always come with your own driver, a Grab or Gojek, or your own scooter to the self-meet pin for $0. We offer it for quality: a driver we arrange, no ride home to find from a village gate in wet or muddy clothes, so you just focus on the activity.

Question 21

Is insurance included when I book Ayung River rafting?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Activity insurance is included in the Ayung River rafting price, from $31 per person. It covers that session. It is not a travel-insurance policy for the rest of the trip. Book at https://ubudoutdooractivities.com/sports/ayung-rafting#book, generate the invoice, and confirm the date on WhatsApp +62 817 7572 3663.
