An ATV ride, then a pool with rice views.

This Ubud day trip blends 350cc off-road power with a laid-back break at the Cretya infinity pool, plus a complimentary drink and coffee tasting to round out the experience. I love how the ride is built on varied track, with jungle trails, rice fields, rivers, tunnels, villages, and muddy sections. The one thing to weigh is the age and swimming rules, Cretya has limits, so if you are bringing teens or kids you should plan carefully before booking.

If you are traveling with anyone under 19, double check the pool rules. Under 19 years old cannot swim at Cretya’s infinity pool, and under 18 years old is not allowed to enter Cretya Ubud (you may still be able to explore nearby Alas Harum Bali instead).

Key things you will notice on this Ubud ATV and Cretya day

• 350cc ATV ride for 1.5 to 2 hours on the best track in Ubud, with tunnels and muddy terrain
• Cretya Ubud infinity pool access, plus one free drink and a free Balinese coffee tasting
• Uma Pakel Agro Tourism coffee stop, with free coffee and herbal tea tasting
• Pickup and drop-off from your hotel in an air-conditioned vehicle, so you lose less time to traffic
• Professional guide and safety gear, with a pace that still feels fun and controlled
• Lunch and shower/changing facilities, which matters when your day involves mud

Why this combo works so well in Ubud

This is the kind of day I like in Bali because it has a clear rhythm: adrenaline first, then a calm reset. You start with the Cretya pool experience, then you move into the ATV portion, and you finish with practical comforts like lunch and shower access.

The value is in the mix. Many Ubud adventures are either all action or all sightseeing. Here, you get a real off-road ride, then an iconic infinity pool moment with rice-terrace views, and you add coffee culture stops so the day feels local, not just touristy.

Also, the tour is private, meaning it’s only your group. That usually helps with timing and makes the guide’s attention feel more personal.

Getting rolling at 8:00 am with hotel pickup and a clear schedule

Your day starts at 8:00 am, and pickup and drop-off are included. That matters more than it sounds. Ubud traffic and short distances can still chew up time, so having transport handled lets you focus on the activities instead of coordinating rides.

The tour runs about 7 to 8 hours total. That is long enough to feel like you did something real, but short enough that you still have energy left for a relaxed dinner afterward.

You will also have a mobile ticket. In plain terms, it reduces hassle on the day, which is a big deal when you are bouncing between locations.

Stop 1 at Cretya Ubud: infinity pool time, rice views, and a free drink

Cretya Ubud is the setup for your first wow moment. You get access to the infinity pool with views over the rice terraces, and the whole area feels like a scenic break after a morning drive. The pool experience is timed early in the day, and that can mean a calmer atmosphere for photos before the crowds pick up.

What I like here is that it is not just about floating in water. You also get a complimentary drink and a free Balinese coffee tasting. So you get three different kinds of relaxation in one spot, pool time, a beverage break, and a coffee moment that fits Bali.

One practical note if you care about swimming: under 19 years old cannot swim at Cretya’s infinity pool. Under 18 years old cannot enter Cretya Ubud. If that applies to your group, you will want to confirm what your alternative option is, the information provided suggests Alas Harum Bali may be a nearby place you can still explore.

If you want extra activities at Cretya, budget for them

Cretya has additional add-ons such as swings, zip line, and sky bike, but those are not included. If you want those, plan extra cost on top of the base tour price.

A quick coffee and herbal tea tasting at Uma Pakel Agro Tourism

After Cretya, you stop at Uma Pakel Agro Tourism for a shorter visit. The highlight is tasting local coffee and herbal tea, with tasting included.

This is a good counterbalance to the ATV later. You are not committing to a long cultural program. You get just enough of a food and drink experience to make the day feel rooted in place, not like two separate activities stitched together.

It’s also a small logistics win. A 30 minute stop is manageable, especially when you know the later ATV portion involves getting dirty and changing out of clothes.

Pertiwi Adventure ATV: 350cc ride time and what the track is really like

The main event is the ATV ride with professional guide support and safety equipment. You ride a powerful 350cc ATV, and you spend about 1.5 to 2 hours on the course.

This route is described as one of the best in Ubud, and the way it’s built is what makes it fun. Expect jungle trails, rice fields, rivers, tunnels, village passing, and muddy sections. That variety is the difference between a ride that feels repetitive and one that keeps you paying attention.

I also like that the ride is challenging but supported. The guide and safety gear are part of the package, and multiple guide names show up in the experience feedback, including Yan, Yan Mudita, Ketut, and Komang Budiana. That strongly suggests you are not just handed a helmet and pointed down a path. You are guided through the day.

What to think about for comfort and safety

ATV riding in Bali can mean dust, mud, and wet spots depending on conditions. Your included lunch and bottled water help, but the bigger comfort win is that showers and changing facilities are included for later in the day.

Even if you feel confident, assume the course will be messy. If you want to take photos, plan that you might be stopping and adjusting gear often. If you prefer dry and clean, this may not be the best fit. But if you want a real off-road experience, this track description is exactly what you are looking for.

Also, under 16 years old must be accompanied by an adult for the ATV ride. If you are planning a family outing, check age requirements early.

Lunch, bottled water, and shower access after you get muddy

The package includes lunch, bottled water, and shower and changing facilities. That last part is what makes the whole day practical.

ATV days can leave you with the kind of grit that clings to everything. Having a chance to shower and change lets you actually enjoy your evening plans afterward, instead of spending your rest of the day smelling like a motorbike and sunscreen. It’s a small line item, but it’s the kind of value that you only appreciate once you have done an ATV in Bali.

You should also know what is not included. Food and drink beyond the complimentary items and lunch, plus any extras like swings or zip line, are not included. So if you see optional add-ons at Cretya, treat them as budget add-ons.

How long is too long, and where this fits best for different travelers

At about 7 to 8 hours, this is a half-day plus, not a quick morning activity. It works best if you want one main outdoor activity and one iconic nature stop.

I think it suits four types of travelers:

• Couples who want both adventure and a scenic reset
• Friends who can handle mud and want great photos at Cretya
• First-time Bali visitors who want a guided day with local tips
• Active travelers who want variety, pool views, coffee tasting, and an ATV course

If you are more into gentle sightseeing, you might feel the ATV is too intense. If you are traveling with kids, the age and swimming rules at Cretya plus the ATV minimum age accompaniment requirement are important.

Price and value: why $95 can be a good deal, if it matches your priorities

The price is $95 per person. For that, you get a lot of the “hard to DIY” parts: pickup and drop-off, air-conditioned vehicle transport, tickets, the ATV ride with safety equipment, lunch, bottled water, and included Cretya items like the complimentary drink and coffee tasting. That means less time chasing transport and paying separate fees at each stop.

The main cost caveats are:

• Solo participants have an Idr 350,000 extra charge, and the minimum booking is 2 people
• Extra Cretya activities like swing, zip line, and sky bike cost extra
• Special events at Cretya can add an extra charge

So the best value is when you have at least two people, you want the ATV, and you plan to enjoy the Cretya pool without needing every add-on.

What to bring so the day feels easy, not stressful

You do not need a lot of gear, but you should plan for the messy part of ATV. Bring:

• Clothes you do not mind getting dirty
• A towel or small quick-dry wrap if you like to feel prepared
• Basic sandals or water-friendly shoes for pool time
• A change of clothes for after the ride (the package includes changing facilities, but you still need clothes)

Also, if you care about swimming at Cretya, remember the under 19 rule. If someone in your group cannot swim, you may still enjoy the views and coffee drink parts, just without pool entry.

Age rules you should not ignore for Cretya and the ATV

These are the rules that can change your day fast if you miss them.

• Under 19 years old cannot swim at Cretya’s infinity pool
• Under 18 years old is not allowed to enter Cretya Ubud
• Under 16 years old must be accompanied by an adult for the ATV ride
• Under 12 years old must be accompanied by an adult (the exact phrasing is truncated in the info, but the adult accompaniment requirement is clear)

If your group includes teens or kids, I recommend you confirm how the guide will handle pool time and ATV time for each person. This is the kind of detail that protects your vacation plans.

Should you book this Ubud ATV plus Cretya infinity pool day?

I would book it if you want one day that actually changes pace. You get the power of a 350cc ATV ride on a varied Ubud track, then you land in a rice-terrace pool setting with included coffee culture and a complimentary drink.

I would skip or rethink it if your group cannot handle a muddy off-road ride, or if Cretya’s age rules would prevent most of your party from enjoying the pool the way you planned. Also, make sure the timing fits your schedule since it runs about 7 to 8 hours.

If you are pairing it with other Ubud plans, keep your next evening flexible enough to recover. With mud, pool water, and sun, you will likely want a low-key dinner afterward.
