If you’re looking for a way to combine Bali’s incredible landscapes with some adrenaline-fueled fun, the Bali ATV Quad Bike with Blue Lagoon Snorkeling tour offers a compelling package. Offered by Upadani Bali Tour, this full-day experience promises a mix of muddy, exhilarating quad biking and relaxed snorkeling, all wrapped in a convenient, well-organized format.
We haven’t tried it ourselves, but based on the glowing reviews and detailed itinerary, it looks like a fantastic choice for those eager to see Bali’s countryside and coral reefs without the stress of planning every detail.
What we particularly like about this tour is the balanced mix of adventure and relaxation—the challenging ATV track is packed with waterfalls, tunnels, and fun gradients, while the Blue Lagoon provides a tranquil snorkeling spot. Plus, the inclusion of hotel pickup, all necessary gear, and a hearty local lunch makes it feel like excellent value for around $84.00 per person.
The only potential consideration is that it’s a full day of activity, so travelers should be prepared for a long, active day; this isn’t ideal if you’re looking for a quick, sit-back experience.
This experience suits those who want to see Bali from a different perspective—off-road through lush countryside and underwater among vibrant coral reefs. It’s perfect for adventure lovers, nature enthusiasts, and families or couples seeking a memorable day outside the usual tourist spots.

The ATV Adventure in Ubud
The day begins with a hotel pickup—a real plus for travelers who dislike the hassle of negotiating transport or navigating Bali’s busy roads. Once collected, you’ll head to the starting point for your 2-hour quad biking adventure, the highlight of the day. The track is claimed to be the best in Bali, featuring a waterfall, tunnels, and steep gradients that challenge even seasoned riders, but still manageable with the instructor’s guidance.
We love the way this track offers diverse terrain—not just flat dirt paths, but a real, engaging ride that gives you a taste of Bali’s rugged beauty. If you opt for the single ride package, you get the full solo experience; the tandem option is great for couples wanting to share the fun. The instructors make safety a priority, providing helmets and boots, and explaining the rules—crucial for a smooth, enjoyable experience.
After the ride, you’ll be covered in mud—expect the thrill to leave you dirty! The tour thoughtfully includes a shower afterwards, so you can clean up before the next part of your day. Many reviews mention how muddy and fun the ride can be, with one reviewer noting, “got super muddy in quad biking,” which is part of the charm for adventure lovers.
Snorkeling at Blue Lagoon Beach
Following the adrenaline rush, you’ll head to Blue Lagoon Beach for snorkeling. This spot is known for its clear waters and colorful reef, perfect for observing Bali’s marine life. The tour provides all snorkeling gear, removing the hassle of renting equipment separately. As one reviewer pointed out, feeding fish with bread during snorkeling added a fun, interactive element.
The beach setting offers a relaxing contrast to the rugged ATV ride. The lunch at Topi Inn, just a short drive away, is included in the package and features Indonesian dishes like fried noodles and fried rice—simple, satisfying, and a good way to refuel after the water activity. The entire snorkeling segment lasts around two hours, giving plenty of time to explore and enjoy the underwater scenery.
What’s Included and What’s Not
The tour’s price of $84 per person includes hotel pickup and drop-off, two hours of ATV riding, snorkeling gear, lunch, and insurance.

You might want to bring extra money if you wish to purchase souvenir photos or other personal expenses, and don’t forget your swimwear—though it’s not included, you’ll want it for snorkeling.
