5.00It's fun, it's well-equipped, it's a lot of projects. It's not boring. There's a beach to play on without going out. The hotel rooms are great, the view is beautiful, the dishes are great. 11111

5.00Brilliant experience, getting up in the middle of the night and heading out for a trip up a mountain seemed a crazy thing to do, but it sure was worth it. Mangku collected me from my hotel in Ubud and we drove for about an hour and a half to the base camp. After a coffee it was into the jeep and the steep drive up. Even in the dark the view was spectacular but as light slowly came it brought home what an amazing world we live in and how the natural things are the most beautiful. Would highly recommend.
Must try trip
