Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Unique and awesome experience.
Oct. 2023 • Solo
I did the combination tour today snd had the most wonderful time. The walk was so interesting and informative. I learned so much in a peaceful and beautiful walk. As a solo traveller Tiwi was incredibly knowledgeable and such a beautiful person. She was the perfect guide for my walk. Back at workshop the learning continued in a lovely environment. Tiwi made Learning the process of making body products fun and informative. She was so engaging. The whole group had so much fun and lots of laughs while we created. The products we made were so beautiful and I am so excited to use them. The ingredients we used, especially the essential oils were sublime. This is one of the very best experiences I have ever had in Bali and highly recommend! It. I enjoyed it so much I am considering doing it again if I have time. Thank you Tiwi for a wonderful time and for sharing your knowledge in such a warm and engaging way. 😊. Ten iut of ten, would recommend. 😊

A feeding soul experience
Sep. 2023 • Solo
I run into UBI by chay, as it was next to my guest house.
My instinct wasn't wrong: I had the best healing experience of all my trip
I joined the water temple purification experience and guided by Tiwy, the kindest soul ever met before, I made my own Canang Sari, the offering for the temple.
They dressed me like a Balinese and we got to the temple for the purification under the 11 fountains. It was such a moving experience that continued with a family lunch in a beautiful place, in the country side.
I also bought the essential oils from the shop: do not miss them, the best care you can cuddle with your body.
Lots of love to all the UBI people,
Elisa

Great Bali experience beyond the ‘Insta’ moments.
Sep. 2023 • Solo
I did the combined Walk in the Rice Fields and Botanical Products with Tiwi as my guide and instructor. I was the only person on the rice field walk and really enjoyed my experience. Tiwi was both knowledgeable and warm. Stopping to point things out tell how how they are used. She was also more than happy to answer questions. Drinking a fresh from the tree was a bit of a highlight. It was not only delicious, but also a fun experience, especially as I got to see another small snap shot of local culture.

The botanical product making was great. Instructions were clear and again Tiwi’s knowledge shone through. She was more than happy to step in and help when needed and again happy to answer questions.

All in all this was a fantastic experience and I would recommend both parts of the tour either as a whole or individually depending on interests.

A discovery tour of the true Ubud
Sep. 2023 • Couples
Our guide Tiwi had the most beautiful personality. She injected found as well as knowledge of so many medicinal plants and rice growing as we walked through the peaceful rice paddies. This was the Ubud I had dreamed of and which was worlds away from the mayhem of the Main Street.

Not good, not recommended, over priced
Aug. 2023 • Friends
Way below expectations for the price we paid. Workshop venue was hot, stuffy and uncomfortable. The structure of the workshop is weak with very unclear instructions. We signed up for the essential oils workshop but we ended up squeezing coconut, watching coconut water boil and made our own sunscreen! The sunscreen turned bad the very next day. Worse still, we walked to some area to drink coconut water - when as an Asian, we have these basic knowledge already, so it was not inspiring. Almost like teaching me how to use chopsticks! At the end, we each only left with a few drops of aromatherapy oil, and the rest we had to buy. Worse workshop I have attended, imagine how disappointed we felt as we travelled hours from Nusa Dua to Ubud specifically for this. A waste of time.

Dear Mrs Fongligchoong We are shocked and very sad about your disappointment and your review, but we thank you for sharing your view with us, so we can learn from it for the future. We had a management meeting to try and find out what happened, and we believe it must have been a misunderstanding. If you check on tripadvisor and on our website ubudbotany.com, you will see that we do not offer an "Essential Oils" workshop at all, and we cannot figure out why you thought you were registered for a workshop that is not bookable with us. But of course we understand the disappointment you must have had when the workshop was quite different from what you had imagined, and we feel very sorry about that. The workshop you actually signed up for was on making coconut oil, so that is what we did: We guided our clients through making coconut oil in the traditional way. In order for our customers to understand the whole process, we also take them out into nature and show them how coconuts are harvested. We will gladly use your comment that Asian clients may already know this for future workshops. Once again, we are sorry about your overall disappointment, as you were obviously expecting a completely different workshop that we do not offer. With this knowledge, perhaps you will give us another chance in the future? We would be delighted! Dewi and the whole UBI-Team

Something fun and different
Jul. 2023 • Friends
I did the 2 hour workshop with of a couple of Friends. This was recommended to me by a friend that had completed the workshop a few times. I highly recommend this workshop for something different to do in Ubud.
We made four different products from scratch using all local botanical's. And adding some of their essential oils. The end products were fabulous and loved the process of making something from scratch. Our instructor was a wealth of knowledge and extremely helpful with the processes.
I also purchased some of their beautiful essential oils. An overall great workshop and lots of fun.
