Cycling through the rice fields of Ubud with a baby โ Our kid-friendly experience with Baja Bikes ๐ฒ
Bali with a baby? ๐ฎ๐ฉ Many people look at me in surprise when I say that we travel with our one-year-old son went on a bike tour in Ubud. But trust me: it was not only possible, it was also one of the most fun things we did during our trip! With Baja Bikes we were able to explore the beautiful surroundings of Ubud in a relaxed and safe way ๐
๐พ What does the tour look like?
The day starts with a pick-up at your hotel in Ubud. In a small van you will be taken to the starting point where you will get your e-bike and a short explanation from the guide. Everyone is super friendly and they really take families with children into account โค๏ธ
The tour itself is mostly downhill โฐ๏ธ โ very nice if you are cycling with a child. And a huge plus, you are cycling with an e-bike! So you don't have to struggle in the heat. There are several stops along the way, including a visit to a traditional Balinese village ๐๏ธ. There you get a glimpse into the daily life of the locals, and you can even look inside a traditional house, so special!
And then: the rice fields ๐พ๐ You cycle along the non-touristy rice fields, and get the opportunity to take pictures. While your child calmly looks around on the back (or in our case falls asleep ๐ด), you arrive at the last point, the Tegalalang rice fields. Here you get the opportunity to eat and drink something or to go into the rice fields. Finally, you cycle back to the starting point.
