TRADITIONAL COOKING CLASS
WAYAN'S COOKING CLASS
One of our very best TruExclusives is our legendary temple guide and masterchef Wayan! Friend and TruFam member for years, he’s practically a celebrity when it comes to our Bali tours. After an accidental meeting on a rainy day in Bali we met Wayan, many years later he’s been teaching our TruFam how to master the art of cooking up traditional Indonesian cuisine in his family home. Is there a more authentic experience? Probably not. We’ve worked with Wayan for years, and he only takes us to the best of the best. His infectious smile really is the TruExclusive itself, but to top it off the food is out of this world. We spend the day checking out the markets and visiting the insta worthy rice paddies. Because really have you even been to Bali if you didn’t get a pic at the rice paddies? -
