There are loads of rafting companies that take you down the Ayung River, a must-do when you are in Ubud, but this company is our favorite - friendly, safety conscious guides and a lovely lunch at the end of your trip. Be prepared for a long walk back up from the river!

Try the Rooster for cocktails and tapas. It's an intimate bar, just across the road from Locavore and around the corner from Locavore to Go, up a small flight of stairs. Owned by the same group, it Is a great place to escape the crowds. Don't miss!
