Tunjuk Village & Traditional Farming

Live the life of a Balinese farmer and spend the day in a rice paddy and climbing a coconut tree. Be sure to wear light clothing, wear comfortable shoes, bring insect repellant and sun protection for a full day of hard work. After the traditional Balinese welcome ceremony your motorcoach will embark for Tunjuk Village where you'll meet the family you're working with, be given a hat and mattock. Then, it's off to help with the chores in the rice paddy. Then, you'll head to the coconut plantation for a lesson in tree climbing to harvest coconuts. After your workday is done, you'll sit down to a typical hearty lunch. On your return trip to the ship you'll stop at the Taman Ayun Temple. Built in 1634 by the King of Mengwi for his family, the Temple is surrounded by a moat and filled with beautiful lotus flowers.
