Dry season (April to October) — lower, clearer water and sunnier conditions make for a safer, more scenic rafting experience. The river is still runnable year-round, but rainy season (November to March) brings higher, more powerful flows and occasional operator closures for safety.

Tropical climate: warm and humid year-round. Dry season: sunny, temperatures 26–32°C (79–90°F). Rainy season: frequent tropical showers and higher river levels.

Nearest airport: Ngurah Rai International Airport (DPS) — approximately 1.5–2.5 hours by road depending on traffic and pick-up point. From Ubud: roughly 1–1.5 hours. Transport: most operators include hotel pick-up/drop-off across Bali; private transfers also available. Fitness & restrictions: basic fitness required; children and people with certain medical conditions (pregnancy, heart problems) may be restricted—confirm with operator.

Half-day rafting package (4–6 hours total with transfers) is typical; plan a full day if combining with nearby attractions (Tirta Gangga, Lempuyang) or multiple activities.

Quick-dry clothing, sports swimsuit, secure water shoes or sandals with straps, sunscreen, hat for pre/post-raft, change of clothes and towel, waterproof phone case or dry bag. Bring minimal valuables; most operators provide lockers.

Riverside cafes and post-raft lunches often serve Balinese and Indonesian dishes (nasi campur, grilled fish, fresh fruit). Souvenirs in nearby villages include handwoven textiles, sarongs, local wood carvings and coffee — support local sellers when possible.
