Your Journey, Offroad style and comfort
Your journey to the soul of Bali is one of comfort excitement and adventure. A rain forest camp and restaurant deep in the mountains of Bali - Gunung Batukaru. We travel in a legendary customized land rover - only six people together with a Balinese expert guide and driver. Air conditioned, comfortable and the route through scenic country side and mostly off-road is not strenuous. You visit the unusual and traditional - you see the Balinese people as they work, play and play sometimes smiling with hellos, sometimes sombre.
You traverse spectacular country side - slowly and in comfort. take photos you only dreamed of taking.
The trip is not arduous as there are plenty of stops along the way - looking-looking. You visit an amazing quarry of stones where it seems time has stood still for centuries.
You pass temple and small forgotten villages and shrines and always the mountains are in the distance - getting closer. A stop at a small farm to see the crops (vanilla, coffee, cocoa, cloves) and the local animals - there we serve coffee and tea with cakes from the baskets we carry on the roof of the car.
The hor spring in the rice fields where local people bathe and have done so for a long long time. The endless beauty of the manicured rice terrace; green or golden brown - depending on harvest time. See the amazing irrigation system and the rivers that flow down the sea. The vehicle clims to over 900 meters and you are above the rice bowl of Jatiluwih and the plains of Bali.
The mountain air is cooler and you are in an area so different - its not anything like the Bali your staying in. The forests have turn into bamboo jungles and ferns abound - the people change and its here you find the WakaLouka Camp and restaurant. A restaurant built from local bamboo in the middle of now - where serving delicious Balinese mountain food - not uiet "haute cuisine" but almost. Great food, good wine and cognac with your coffee - where are you. In the mountains, in a bamboo restaurnt, high in a forest - miles from nowhere - the soul of Bali. There are tracks and paths and cool mountain water, wild orchids and birds and overall stillness. Relaxed, happy, and different, you are than taken back to your hotel by luxury minibus after a very remarkable day. If you go on the late morning trip you go by minibus straight to the camp and restaurant where you join the other guests who have arrived by Land Rover. And after lunch its your turn for the off-road adventure arriving back at sunset at your hotel.
