One sentence of dirt and joy: this ATV day mixes jungle grit with a pool reset. You’ll ride through rice fields and muddy paths with a professional instructor, then wrap the adventure around Gorilla Face Cave and a proper Cretya Pool lunch break.

I especially love the combo of adrenaline plus recovery time. The Cretya stop isn’t just a roadside break; you get an hour with admission included at Cretya Sunset Pool & Bar, plus a shower setup and towels so you can cool off and change. I also like how the ATV portion is guided and structured, not a free-for-all. You get instruction on the ride itself, and the quads are described as powerful and clean.

One thing to consider: expect to get muddy. That means bringing extra clothes and shower items is not optional if you want to enjoy the rest of your day afterward.

Key highlights worth your attention

• ATV ride with instructor support so you get real coaching, not just a handoff
• Cretya Sunset Pool & Bar lunch with included time to relax and rinse off
• Gorilla Face Cave access paired with jungle trail riding for a full adventure arc
• Shower facilities and towels included, which makes the day feel more comfortable
• Multiple ATV engine options (250cc, 450cc, 850cc) if you want more or less power
• Pickup is offered and the meeting area is easy to find near Tegalalang

How This Ubud ATV Adventure Shapes Your Day

This is a 6-hour Ubud experience built like a good day should be: ride hard, refuel, then ride into something memorable. For $35 per person, it’s priced in a way that makes sense if you want a real activity day in Bali, not just a quick photo stop.

I like that it’s not one long slog. The day is split into two clear parts: Cretya Sunset first, then the ATV adventure. That pacing matters in Ubud’s warm conditions, especially when you’re heading into muddy trails after lunch.

Also, the group size cap is 70 travelers. That’s big enough to be lively, but it’s not the kind of massive convoy that turns everything chaotic. In practice, the day is described as well organized and seamless, and that shows up in what matters: clean changing areas and a smooth flow between the stops.

Price and Value: What You Actually Get for $35

At $35 per person, the biggest value is that your money buys more than the ATV. You also get indoor-outdoor convenience: pickup is offered, lunch is included, and you’re given towels plus shower facilities. That’s often where cheaper ATV options fall short, because you end up spending extra time and money just to feel human again.

You also get access to two parts that make this feel like a “whole story” tour:

• a ride through Bali’s terrain (rice paddies, jungle trails, muddy sections)
• access to Gorilla Face Cave and a waterfall area linked to the adventure

Then there’s the equipment side. You can choose among ATV unit options (250cc, 450cc, or 850cc). The fact that engine sizes are offered means you can better match the ride to your confidence level and comfort with speed.

Booking Window, Confirmation, and How Pickup Works

This tour is typically booked about 22 days in advance on average, which tells you it’s popular enough to sell out in peak periods. Confirmation is received at the time of booking, which keeps things simple.

Pickup is offered, so you’re not stuck sorting transport right at the start. You’ll meet at Alasan Adventures – ATVTaro, Tegalalang, Gianyar Regency, Bali 80572, Indonesia, and the tour ends back at the meeting point. If you’re planning the rest of your day in Ubud, treat this as a half-day activity that will leave you ready to eat well and shower, not stuck in damp clothes.

One small practical note: the tour uses mobile tickets. Save your confirmation and keep your phone charged, especially if you’re leaving from a hotel with spotty signal.

Choosing Your ATV Power: 250cc, 450cc, or 850cc

The tour includes high-quality ATV units with choices of 250cc, 450cc, or 850cc. That’s a big deal because ATV feel changes fast as engine size increases: throttle response, climb power, and how confidently the quad handles uneven ground.

If you’re newer to ATV riding, a lower engine option (250cc or 450cc) is usually the smarter way to enjoy the ride without getting overwhelmed. If you already have experience, the powerful quads described in the reviews can feel like a proper adrenaline day. Either way, the instructor is there to help you stay safe and keep control on rougher sections.

Stop 1: Cretya Sunset Pool & Bar Lunch and That One Hour You’ll Thank Yourself For

You start with Cretya Sunset and an included lunch at Cretya Sunset Pool & Bar. You get about one hour with admission included, which is exactly long enough to do the two best things: eat and reset your body.

Here’s what this stop is really for. After ATV riding—especially through muddy paths—your hair, clothes, and mood can take a hit. Cretya is your “cool down and regroup” moment. You can relax by the poolside, take a refreshing dip if you want, and then use the shower facilities and towels so you don’t carry that muddy vibe to your next plan.

The reviews highlight that the changing and shower areas are clean and modern, and that you should bring extra clothes. That’s your real takeaway: you’re not just handed lunch; you’re given a way to recover from the mess.

Practical tip: pack a small bag for the Cretya portion and keep it separate from your main day bag. Once you’re muddy, it’s nice not to play laundry Tetris.

Stop 2: Alasan Adventures ATV Ride Toward Gorilla Face Cave

After Cretya, the adventure side turns on. You’ll head to Alasan Adventures – ATV for about two hours of guided riding. This is where you’ll move through jungle trails, rice paddies, and muddy sections, while your instructor leads the way and provides instruction for riding technique.

A standout feature here is the Gorilla Face Cave access. The adventure includes a chance to see dramatic rock formations and unique geological features associated with the cave. If you like nature that feels “real Bali,” not a staged viewpoint, this cave add-on gives your day depth beyond just speed and mud.

There’s also mention of an adventure waterfall area connected to the experience. Translation: your day isn’t only about climbing and turning. You also get scenic nature moments that break the ride up visually, so the day feels varied rather than repetitive.

Mud, Showers, and the Clothing Reality Check

If you only remember one thing from this tour, make it this: bring extra clothes. The reviews are very consistent on this point, and they’re right. The ATV experience is described as muddy, and the “need extra clothes and shower stuff” advice shows up across multiple impressions.

What you should do:

• Bring a clean set of clothes for after the ride
• Bring shower items you’ll actually use (not just a quick rinse)
• Keep a towel option in mind, but remember towels are provided—still, personal comfort matters

The good part is that towels and shower facilities are included. That transforms the experience from “fun but gross” into “fun and manageable.” You’ll spend less time worrying about your next stop and more time enjoying the tour.

Also, the ATVs are described as powerful and clean. That matters because a day in the dirt gets old fast if the equipment feels worn or messy. The tour’s equipment quality is part of why the organization stands out.

What Makes the Organization Feel Different

This doesn’t feel like a chaotic street operation. The ride is described as seamless and well organized, and that shows in the flow:

• Pickup is offered, so you arrive without transport stress
• You get facilities to change and shower with modern setups
• The schedule is built with a clear lunch/reset point
• Staff are friendly and the whole day moves with intent

One review specifically mentions a driver named Made and thanks the team. That’s not a small detail. It points to the fact that the staff interaction is part of the experience, and you’ll feel that during the instruction and the transitions between stops.

Who This Tour Suits Best (And Who Might Want Another Option)

This is a great fit if you want:

• a guided ATV day (not solo, not guesswork)
• a combo of adrenaline plus nature sights (cave + waterfall area)
• included lunch and the chance to cool down at Cretya Pool

It also fits family travel, based on how the experience is described as a family-friendly option. That doesn’t mean it’s a gentle stroll. You’ll be riding and you should have a moderate physical fitness level, but the instructor support helps make it manageable.

You might think twice if you hate getting dirty or you’re short on the ability to change clothes. The ride includes muddy paths, and the entire “shower facilities and towels” part exists because you’ll likely need it.

And if you’re sensitive to rough surfaces, know that the day includes rugged jungle trails. You can still enjoy it—just plan for a more hands-on activity style.

Value Check: Is It Worth Booking?

For $35 per person, this tour is a good value if you want a full activity day that includes:

• ATV riding with professional instruction
• Gorilla Face Cave access and cave-and-water nature stops
• lunch at Cretya Sunset Pool & Bar
• mineral water
• towels and shower facilities so you’re not stuck after getting muddy

Where value gets even better is if you’d otherwise pay extra for convenience. Pickup, lunch, and the ability to shower are often where travelers lose money or time with cheaper, bare-bones ATV options.

The only “cost” is mental: you need to show up ready to get muddy and then change out of it. If you can do that, you’ll likely feel like you got your money’s worth.

Should You Book This Ubud ATV Adventure?

Book this if you want the sweet spot: ATV excitement in Ubud plus a cave and waterfall nature stop, then a realistic place to shower and relax at Cretya. The included lunch, towels, and shower facilities make it feel complete, not tacked on.

Skip (or choose a different style of tour) if you strongly dislike mud, can’t manage extra clothing, or want a purely scenic day with minimal physical effort. This is activity-first, nature-second, pool-and-shower third.

If you’re a confident rider or you’re excited to learn with real instruction, it’s a fun way to see more of Bali than just roads and temples.
