Few things beat ATV + infinity pool in one day. You ride a 350cc bike on messy jungle trails, then cool off at Cretya Ubud’s rice-terrace views. The day also includes a coffee-farm stop for free tastings and a sit-down lunch after the dust (and mud).

Two things I like a lot: the route mixes real variety (tunnels, rivers, villages, muddy tracks) and Cretya gives you time to relax with a planned treat—one free drink and coffee tasting. One drawback to consider: Cretya swim rules are age-specific, and the ATV portion depends on weather since the experience needs good conditions.

The vibe is classic Ubud: green scenery, guides who talk you through what you’re seeing, and a smooth day plan that runs long enough to feel like you got your money’s worth. In the feedback I saw, guides like Yan and Komang Budiana stood out for staying helpful all day, plus people also mentioned Ketut and Yan Mudita for friendly, reliable guiding.

Key highlights to know before you go

CRETYA UBUD Infinity Pool+ ATV RIDE with Gorilla Cave +lunch. - Key highlights to know before you go

  • 350cc ATV ride on one of Ubud’s best off-road routes, with tunnels, rivers, villages, and mud.
  • Cretya Ubud infinity pool access right after the ride, with a view over rice terraces.
  • Free coffee tasting and herbal tea sampling at a local agro stop.
  • Shower and changing facilities after the adventure (you’ll be grateful).
  • Private group format so you and your people stay together.
  • 8:00 am start helps you reach Cretya earlier for calmer pool time and better photos.

Why the Cretya Ubud infinity pool and ATV combo works

CRETYA UBUD Infinity Pool+ ATV RIDE with Gorilla Cave +lunch. - Why the Cretya Ubud infinity pool and ATV combo works
This is the kind of day that makes sense in Bali. You get the adrenaline first—when you’re still fresh and excited—then you transition into the calmer Ubud rhythm: water, views, and a drink in hand.

On the ATV side, the track is described as more than a loop in a field. Expect jungle trails, rice fields, river crossings, tunnels, village roads, and muddy terrain. That matters because a “basic” ATV ride can feel repetitive fast. Here, variety is built into the route.

On the Cretya side, you’re not just paying for a photo spot. Cretya is an experience with an infinity pool, rice-terrace scenery, and planned extras: one complimentary drink and a free Balinese coffee tasting. It’s a nice rhythm switch: ride hard, then slow down.

The only real caution is age rules around swimming and entry. If you’re planning this for teens or younger kids, read the limits carefully before you assume everyone can use the pool.

Meeting at 8:00 am: how the 7–8 hour day stays organized

Your day starts at 8:00 am. The total duration is listed as 7 to 8 hours, and it includes hotel pickup and drop-off. That timing matters because it compresses the best parts of Ubud into a single day without you having to shuffle between multiple bookings.

Also, this is a private tour/activity, meaning only your group participates. You still join a timed schedule (the day is planned), but you’re not stuck sharing your ride or pool time with a bigger unknown group.

One practical note: the itinerary includes a couple of stops before you fully relax at Cretya. That’s good planning. Coffee tasting and farm context happen while you’re not yet exhausted, and the pool comes after the messier ATV part—so you’re not tempted to try to “do it all” in one sweaty sprint.

Stop 1: Cretya Ubud infinity pool time, plus drink and coffee tasting

CRETYA UBUD Infinity Pool+ ATV RIDE with Gorilla Cave +lunch. - Stop 1: Cretya Ubud infinity pool time, plus drink and coffee tasting
Cretya Ubud is where the relaxation happens, and it’s clearly designed around the views. You’ll get a pool session with stunning rice terrace scenery. This is also where the day’s small perks start stacking up: you receive one free drink, plus a free Balinese coffee tasting.

This stop is also why the whole package is more than ATV tourism. If you only did the ride, you’d likely end up spending the afternoon trying to find a quiet place to recover. Here, recovery is the plan: you arrive with a plan for water, showering/changing facilities, and a calm stretch of time.

One thing to keep in mind is what’s actually included at Cretya. The package includes free access for the infinity pool, the drink, and the coffee tasting. But activities like swing, zip line, and sky bike are listed as not included. If those are big-ticket priorities for you, budget extra or plan those separately.

Pool rules you should check before you book

The experience notes two key limits:

  • Under 19 years old: you may not swim at the Cretya infinity pool.
  • Under 18 years old: you’re not allowed to enter Cretya Ubud (there’s a note that you might still enter Alas Harum Bali to explore around).

If you’re bringing anyone under these ages, don’t guess. Confirm what your date allows, especially if your main reason for booking is the infinity pool time.

Stop 2: Uma Pakel Agro Tourism for free coffee and herbal tea

CRETYA UBUD Infinity Pool+ ATV RIDE with Gorilla Cave +lunch. - Stop 2: Uma Pakel Agro Tourism for free coffee and herbal tea
This part of the day is short—about 30 minutes—but it’s a good breather between the action and the bigger ATV section.

At Uma Pakel Agro Tourism, the highlight is simple: you get free tastings of local coffee and herbal tea. Even if you’re not the type who wants to do a full plantation tour, this stop gives you context. You learn how the flavors connect to everyday Balinese drinking habits, and you get a break from moving around.

The main practical upside: you don’t lose half a day here. It’s enough time to sample and reset, without turning your ATV-and-pool day into a long agricultural detour.

The main downside: it’s not a deep workshop format in the info you have here. If you want a heavy educational experience, you might find this stop more of a quick tasting than a full lesson.

Stop 3: Pertiwi Adventure ATV ride through tunnels, rain forest, rivers, and mud

CRETYA UBUD Infinity Pool+ ATV RIDE with Gorilla Cave +lunch. - Stop 3: Pertiwi Adventure ATV ride through tunnels, rain forest, rivers, and mud
This is the heart of the trip: the ATV session on a challenging route. You’ll ride a powerful 350cc ATV, guided and supported with safety equipment and a professional guide.

The listed ride time is about 1.5 to 2 hours. That’s long enough to feel like you got the real ATV experience, but not so long that you’re wiped out before pool time.

The track description is exactly why I’d pick this over a short, easy ride:

  • rain-forest scenery
  • tunnels
  • water fall areas
  • muddy tracks
  • local village passages
  • rice field sections
  • river-related terrain

And yes, expect water and mud. The name of the day itself hints at it, but the better reason to plan for it is the swap you’ll get afterward: shower/changing facilities at Cretya so you can actually cool off and get comfortable.

Difficulty and comfort considerations

The ride is described as very challenging, so choose this if you’re looking for real off-road movement rather than a casual scenic drive. If you’re prone to motion sickness, or you’re worried about control on muddy sections, you’ll want to take extra care when your guide explains how to ride.

Also, age matters here:

  • Under 16 years old must be accompanied by an adult for the ATV ride.
  • There’s a note about under 12 needing accompaniment, but the exact detail is cut off in the info you have, so you should ask the operator for the full rule for your group.

Guides and safety: why names like Yan, Komang Budiana, and Ketut matter

CRETYA UBUD Infinity Pool+ ATV RIDE with Gorilla Cave +lunch. - Guides and safety: why names like Yan, Komang Budiana, and Ketut matter
A lot of ATV tours advertise safety gear. This one also lists professional guides & safety equipment. What makes the experience feel legit is the consistency of human support mentioned in the feedback: people highlighted guides such as Yan, Komang Budiana, Ketut, and Yan Mudita for being friendly, reliable, and communicative.

That matters on a 350cc ATV because you’re not just sitting on a machine. You’ll need guidance on handling the track—especially with mud, tunnels, and water conditions. Good guides also help you manage the day’s pace so you don’t arrive at Cretya pool time exhausted or out of sync with the schedule.

One more small win: multiple comments noted that arriving early to Cretya helps for photos and a calmer pool mood. An 8:00 am start makes that more likely, so you’re not only paying for the view—you’re timing it.

What’s included (and what costs extra) at Cretya and on the ride

CRETYA UBUD Infinity Pool+ ATV RIDE with Gorilla Cave +lunch. - What’s included (and what costs extra) at Cretya and on the ride
The inclusions are straightforward and worth checking line by line so you don’t get surprised later.

Included:

  • Lunch
  • Bottled water
  • Air-conditioned vehicle
  • Private transportation
  • All tickets and ATV ride
  • One free drink at Cretya
  • Hotel pickup and drop-off
  • Shower and changing facilities at Cretya (listed as part of the experience features)

Not included:

  • Food and drinks beyond the one included drink
  • Extra activities at Cretya such as swing, zip line, and sky bike
  • Any special event at Cretya that may carry an extra fee

So the value comes from getting a whole day kit: ride + pool + basic refreshments + lunch + transport. If you plan to skip the add-on activities at Cretya, the cost stays predictable. If you want the swing/zipline/sky bike too, you should expect extra spending on top of the $95.

Price and value: the real reason this can feel like a deal

CRETYA UBUD Infinity Pool+ ATV RIDE with Gorilla Cave +lunch. - Price and value: the real reason this can feel like a deal
At $95 per person, this is positioned as a full-day Ubud experience: ATV ride on a 350cc bike, Cretya infinity pool access, one drink, coffee tasting, a coffee-farm stop, lunch, and hotel transport.

It also has two “value conditions” you should know:

  • Minimum booking is 2 persons. If you’re solo, there’s an Idr 350,000 extra charge (solo/minimum booking rule).
  • It’s typically booked about 24 days in advance on average, so if your dates are fixed, book earlier.

When this works best value-wise is when you’d otherwise pay separately for:

1) ATV + guide on a tougher track

2) a nice pool facility with views and showers

3) lunch and transport without you having to drive yourself

This package strings those together, and the schedule is long enough that you don’t feel like you’re paying for a quick transfer.

Who should book this ATV + infinity pool day

This tour fits best if you want:

  • a single-day mix of adrenaline and relaxation
  • an ATV that includes variety (not just a flat beginner trail)
  • Cretya Ubud’s infinity pool views, plus coffee and a drink
  • hotel pickup and a private group feel

You might want to skip or adjust if:

  • you have someone under 19 who needs to swim at the pool (swimming isn’t allowed)
  • you’re bringing someone under 18 who wants to enter Cretya Ubud (entry isn’t allowed for them)
  • you want an easy ride with no mud and no challenge (this is described as very challenging)

It also makes sense for couples and small friend groups. The private setup plus the full-day plan gives you a shared experience without waiting around for random strangers.

Should you book this tour?

If you’re the type who likes a day that starts with motion and ends with comfort, I’d say yes. The mix of Pertiwi Adventure’s more intense track elements (tunnels, water, rain-forest sections, muddy terrain) with the clean payoff of Cretya pool time is exactly the combo that makes this worth planning.

Book it if you:

  • want the 350cc ATV experience in Ubud
  • care about the infinity pool setting with rice-terrace views
  • want lunch, drink, and coffee tasting handled for you
  • prefer pickup/drop-off rather than DIY logistics

Think twice if pool swimming is a must for anyone under 19, or if Cretya entry matters for anyone under 18. In those cases, the main “relaxation payoff” may not work the way you imagine.
