English-speaking ATV and river guides near Ubud
Updated · By the Bali Activity Tours desk in Ubud
Short answer
Yes. On the Sedang ATV the safety briefing is in English on flat ground before you ride, and a guide leads the trail single-file. Ayung rafting and Wos tubing include an English-speaking crew or nature guide. WhatsApp booking with the Ubud desk is in English. Private tickets keep a dedicated guide with your group only.
Where English is used on the ATV, rafting, and tubing days, what the briefing covers, and how private English-speaking guides differ from shared.
English on the Sedang ATV
Premium ATV adventure at All New Bali Adventure starts with an English safety briefing on flat ground: how to use the throttle and brakes, how to sit on a single or tandem, and how to follow the guide. Arena boots and a helmet are fitted before you leave the yard.
On the trail a guide leads single-file through mud, river crossings, the small waterfall section, and the lion-head tunnel. Hand signals and short English calls keep the line moving. No licence and no previous quad experience are required.
English on the rivers
Ayung rafting includes a crew guide who steers the raft and gives paddle commands in English. Wos River tubing includes an English-speaking nature guide who stays with the group on the float. Both tickets include insurance for ages 6–65; rafting includes lunch, tubing does not.
Shared vs private English-speaking guides
On a shared ticket you join the arena’s or river’s normal departure with other guests. The briefing and the lead guide still use English.
On a private ticket a dedicated guide stays with your booking only — typically Rp 500.000 above the shared band on the ATV, with private rafting and tubing priced on their own fare pages. That is the choice when you want the explanation and the pace set only for your group.
