Bali ATV for Beginners (2026)

Can beginners ride a Bali ATV without experience? Yes. Sekar Bali Activity runs beginner-friendly quad bike rides at All New Bali Adventure in Sedang, Abiansemal, near Ubud. A Single ATV starts at IDR 750,000 (1 pax; lower tiers for 2+ and 3+) and a Tandem ATV starts at IDR 1,100,000 (2 pax sharing one bike). Every ride includes an English-speaking safety briefing, boot shoes, helmet, a simple lunch, and insurance for ages 6–65. You do not need a riding licence or prior ATV experience.

Key Takeaways

• First-timers are the usual guest — the briefing covers throttle, brake, and trail etiquette before you start
• Single ATV from IDR 750,000 · Tandem ATV from IDR 1,100,000 at All New Bali Adventure near Ubud
• Included: boot shoes, helmet, lunch, insurance (ages 6–65), trail guide (2–4 hours)
• Pickup is an optional booking checkbox (IDR 400,000); unchecked means meet at the arena

Do you need ATV experience for a first ride in Bali?

No. Most guests on the Bali ATV Adventure have never sat on a quad bike. Guides start on flat ground at All New Bali Adventure, show you how the machine starts and stops, then lead the group onto jungle paths, muddy stretches, and shallow river crossings. The pace follows the least experienced rider, not the most confident one.

If you can sit upright and follow a guide, you can do this ride. The arena is a dedicated off-road track — not a public road — so you are not mixing with Bali scooter traffic. That is the main reason first-timers feel safer here than on a rented motorbike.

Worried about speed? You control the throttle after the briefing. Guides keep the group together and stop at photo spots and river crossings. If you want a passenger seat instead of the controls, book Tandem.

Single ATV vs Tandem ATV for first-timers

Choose Single if you want the full sensation of steering yourself through mud and jungle. Choose Tandem if you are a couple, or if one guest prefers not to drive. Child Single ATV is IDR 700,000 where age-appropriate — send ages on WhatsApp so the team assigns Adult or Child correctly.

What happens at All New Bali Adventure

All Sekar Bali Activity ATV rides start at All New Bali Adventure — the jungle ATV arena on Jl. Raya Krasan, Sedang, Kec. Abiansemal, Kabupaten Badung, Bali 80352, near Ubud. This is where you meet your guide, get fitted with boot shoes and a helmet, and hear the safety briefing before the track. It is not a roadside rental stand, and it is not the corporate office pin in Banjar Kenderan.

A typical first-timer sequence:

1. Arrive at All New Bali Adventure (hotel pickup or self-meet)
2. Gear fitting — boot shoes and helmet sized to you
3. Safety briefing — English-speaking guide, no experience assumed
4. Guided trail — jungle paths, mud, and river crossings
5. Optional canyon tubing on the Wos River after the ATV session
6. Simple menu lunch and time to change into dry clothes

Package duration on the tour page is 2–4 hours. Arrival details and what the base looks like: All New Bali Adventure location guide.

What is included in the beginner ATV price

Your package price covers the guided ATV ride (single or tandem), boot shoes and helmet, a simple menu lunch, insurance for guests aged 6–65, and the safety briefing with a trail guide.

Not included:

• Hotel pickup (optional add-on — see below)
• River tubing combo (ask when you book; combo pricing is confirmed on WhatsApp)
• Personal expenses and gratuities

You do not pay upfront to inquire. Open the booking form on sekarbaliactivity.com or message WhatsApp +62 817 7572 3663 with your name, age, adult or child, date, and activity.

Hotel pickup or meet at the arena?

On the booking form, hotel pickup is an optional checkbox labelled “I need hotel pickup.”

• Leave it unchecked if you will self-meet. Go to All New Bali Adventure on Jl. Raya Krasan, Sedang, Abiansemal. Open the meeting point map. There is no pickup surcharge when you meet at the arena.
• Check the box to add hotel pickup for IDR 400,000.
• Free Ubud pickup is only on the Ubud Ricefield Cycling Tour (IDR 750,000 with lunch) and Tumang Bali Cooking Class — not on ATV, whitewater rafting, or tubing.

If you stay in central Ubud and have a driver or scooter, self-meet is often simpler. If you stay farther out or do not want to navigate Sedang lanes, tick the pickup box and the surcharge is added in the WhatsApp message. Full policy: Ubud hotel pickup for Bali adventures.

What first-time riders should bring

Trails get muddy. Pack changing clothes or a dry cloth, sunscreen, and some cash for extras. A waterproof phone case is optional but useful at river crossings. Towels and changing facilities are at the base — you do not need to bring your own towel.

Closed-toe shoes are replaced by the boot shoes provided at the arena, so you can arrive in sandals if you prefer and change on site. Leave jewellery and loose bags in a dry bag or at the hotel.

After the track: tubing, rafting, or a slower day

Many first-timers add canyon tubing on the Wos River after the ATV session — land then water. Ask WhatsApp for combo availability rather than guessing a bundled price. The combo flow is in ATV + River Tubing.

Prefer more splash than mud? Whitewater rafting near Ubud is IDR 500,000 on Class II–III rapids with gear, guide, and lunch. Want culture instead of motors? The Ubud Ricefield Cycling Tour is IDR 750,000 with lunch and free Ubud pickup.
