in 2004 we did a 4wd tour with waka luka. decided to have a boys day out 2 adults and 2 kids aged 5 years. ended up driving up to some mountains near kintamani. on the way to the mountains we did a couple of traditional villages and saw some women carving volcanic rock to make bricks and them cart them up the side of the river bank all for 1500rp each. we ended up at a restaurant nestled away in a rain forest it was a real highlight of the trip. i have tried to keep it short and there was obviously a lot more to add to the trip, but in my view it was well worth the dollars and the boys had an absoloute ball. i think what made the trip is that we did not end up at any of the usual tourist spots and saw a different side of the balinese rather than the ones caught up in the tourism show. do it you will not be dissapointed.
