A Day in the Life of a Balinese Farmer
Overview
Take in the view of the pure emerald green of Bali's rice fields. We’ll guide you to where you can help farmers plant rice, then to a spa villa for a cleansing and relaxing ritual, followed by a traditional farmers' lunch by the river.
Itinerary
- Stop for a picnic breakfast.
- Learn the process of rice farming from a local farmer and plant your own seedlings.
- Relieve those farmer's aches and pains with a Batu Kali Riverstone Bathing Ritual at The Sacred River Spa. This 120-minute treatment is inspired by the Balinese tradition of river bathing after a long day in the fields, using river stones to scrub and massage away the day. It includes a nourishing herbal application for the hair and scalp, invigorating river stone scrub and soothing Balinese massage with coconut oil and a warm paste of freshly grated ginger applied to the lower back.
- Linger by the river for an authentic farmer's lunch of nasi campur. Simple, authentic and beautiful – a true Balinese experience you'll remember for a lifetime.
