Why Tumang Bali Stands Out

The only class in Ubud combining all of these in one experience.

🌾

Rice Field Walk

A scenic walk through Ubud's green rice paddies — included as standard, not available at other major classes.

🌸

Canang Sari Offering

Learn to make a traditional Balinese flower offering, adding genuine spiritual and cultural depth to the experience.

👥

Smallest Groups

Maximum 8 guests per session means more time with the chef and a truly personal, never-crowded experience.

🌱

Full Vegetarian Menu

Not just an option — the entire class is designed around a complete vegetarian Balinese menu, vegan on request.

🍽️

10+ Dishes

Cook the most dishes per session of any leading Ubud class, so you leave with a real repertoire, not just one recipe.

💰

Best Value

IDR 350,000 with the most inclusions — hotel pickup, market tour, rice field walk, flower offering, and a recipe booklet.
