Everything was excellent! We enjoyed a smooth ride, a fun exploration of the local grocery market, and thorough, hands-on cooking instruction and preparation. The staff were warm and friendly throughout the experience. We learned so much about authentic Balinese cuisine and had a truly memorable experience!

One of the best cooking classes really informative and fun. The food was all delicious.
It was a wonderful experience, I highly recommend it to everyone! The female owner was incredibly kind, attentive, and endlessly patient with us throughout the entire class. She explained every step thoroughly, making it fantastic to learn from her even as a complete beginner. The lunch we shared at the end was simply divine—filled with authentic, fresh, and brilliant Balinese flavors! If you are in Ubud, do not miss this cooking class! Matur suksma 🥰🙏
The cooking class was absolutely brilliant. Everything was incredibly well organised, from the hotel pick up to keeping track of who made which dish. All the staff were friendly, efficient and helpful, and offered to take lots of pictures! Ketut was a great teacher, full of enthusiasm and energy. He seems to really love his job! The facilities were clean and spacious, with individual stations for each pair. It was really nice to meet the other people in the group. We got a digital copy of the recipes to take away, and I can't wait to try them out!
Ketut and team were very friendly and fun to be around, I learned so much ! Great facilities too
Excellent instructions for the cooking. Food was delicious, and the staff very friendly. I would totally recommend
Amazing food. Great setting. Great staff. Highly recommend.
Great fun, highly recommend it. What I really liked was that we cooked our own food and ate our own food, not group food and there was a vegetarian and vegan option.
Mr. Kutut is very friendly and the staff are great. The class is well organized and the food was delicious!
We LOVED this cooking class. The host was very knowledgeable, it was easy to follow along and we had lots of fun! The driver even dropped us back into Ubud afterwards. Food was delicious and was a great experience! Worth the money 10/10
Picked up in time in Ubud. A short drive up the mountain to the kitchen. Very well presented. Ketut was funny, engaging and knowledgeable in his craft. All the staff were pleasant and extremely helpful. Food was very tasty, can’t wait to cook it at home. Would definitely recommend.
KETUT’S BALI COOKING CLASS WAS A REAL HOOT OF A TIME! We learnt how to cook: 1: Chicken Satay with Peanut Sauce, 2: Balinese Chicken Curry, 3: Grilled Fish in a Banana Leaf, 4: Delicious Mie Goreng & 5: Braised Banana Saba (In Palm Sugar Gravy). It was great learning each recipe in detail and it all tasted delicious. But the best part by far was the warmth and hospitality from Ketut and his team. We felt so welcomed and thoroughly embraced. Ketut is so infectious in the best possible way - his laugh and love of cooking and life is next level - we had the best time, thank you so much for having us @ketutsbalicookingclass
Amazing! Ketut is hilarious, my children (age 7&10) giggled all of the way through his class. Very informative, excellent cooking and the final recipes tasted delicious. I would highly recommend to anyone with children, or for couples! 10/10! Thank you 🥰
Ketut’s Bali Cooking Class was one of the highlights of our trip to Ubud. Made was an exceptional instructor - friendly, knowledgeable, and made the class fun for everyone. The food was incredible, the recipes were easy to follow, and we loved that we could take them home to recreate. If you’re looking for an authentic Balinese experience, I can’t recommend this class enough!
The cooking experience with Ketut was great, we had a lot of fun cooking and learning about the ingredients of traditional balinese cuisine. We chose the afternoon option so we didn’t go to the market. At the end of the activity we ate everything for dinner, and it was delicious. Really glad we got to spend some time there, everyone in Ketut’s team was very kind and welcoming. We would recommend 100%
Amazing atmosphere, delicious food!
A wonderful experience. The staff were so attentive from the moment we were picked up from our accomodation. The market tour was very interesting and the cooking class was extremely well organised
Great service and a wonderful atmosphere. Ketut has lots of personality and also a great sense of humour. A very smooth non stressful class with a bonus of eating at the end. Thank you Ketut and family ❤️
Such a fun vibe from start to finish! The class was well organized, the ingredients were fresh, and the cooking station was clean and comfortable. I went with friends and we laughed the whole time while cooking together. The chef shared lots of tips about Balinese food, and the final dishes tasted restaurant quality. Honestly one of the highlights of my Bali trip
I didn’t expect to enjoy this cooking class this much. The local market tour was super interesting and the scenery around the cooking area was beautiful. The chef explained each step clearly and made the whole class feel relaxed and fun. Everything we cooked was fresh, flavorful, and authentic. Now I can finally make real Balinese dishes at home. 10/10 experience!
I really loved this experience because it didn’t feel touristy at all. The Balinese chef and the whole team made everyone feel welcome like family. The market tour was interesting, and cooking in a traditional Balinese setting made everything feel extra authentic. The peanut sauce and chicken satay were absolutely incredible. Such a wholesome and memorable day in Bali!
This cooking class was honestly one of the best activities I did in Ubud. The chef explained everything in such a fun and easy way, so even beginners could follow along. We visited the local market, learned about Balinese spices, and cooked so many delicious dishes. The food tasted amazing and the atmosphere felt super warm and friendly. Definitely worth trying if you love food and culture!
Good fun, learn some great tips! Fun host and well organised!
Booked & paid non refundable deposit for Tour 3 months ago only to be told now …oops sorry forgot to tell you we have a group booked so you need to change your date …very unprofessional…insisted on full refund & have chosen a more professional tour !!!
Definatley recommend! Ketut was super friendy, and we had a great afternoon. Food was amazing!
Ketuk and his family were so welcoming and enthusiastic! Very accommodating about food allergies as well. Definitely a must-do in Bali!
We enjoyed a wonderful cooking class led by Ketut - such a friendly team! Everything is taken care of by him team, transport from your hotel, a guided tour of a local market, clear and entertaining demonstrations at the school with all ingredients measured out and provided for your to cook your own food. The cookery class team were so helpful, whenever we had a question there was someone there straight away to help!
This was one of the best cooking classes we have done in Asia. It was fun, informative and the food we cooked was delicious. I went with my 8 and 10 yr old kids and the staff were so attentive to them. Ketut is a character and made it all so enjoyable. Terima kasih Ketut and team!
Delicious food, very accommodating and easy for everyone, even my 3 year old could help a bit.
Highly recommend this cooking class. Katut is great value. Plenty of laughs and easy to follow instructions. Food was so tasty and you get the recipes to make at home.
Very well done - well presented- the chef was knowledgeable & had a great personality & suggested ingredient substitutions for those that live in other countries. Great fun morning & the food was delicious!!
This class was so much fun! The food was amazing and the hosts were lovely. Such a great experience and a very relaxed environment.
I found this cooking class on trip advisor and read the great reviews, so decided to book this activity for my family of 15 for our first morning in Bali. It was great!!! Picked up on time Fun experience Delicious food My family enjoyed it very much. Worth every penny Thank you so much Ketut for a wonderful start to our Bali experience.
This might have been one of the best organized tours we have ever participated in! Our family of 4 (two boys, aged 15 & 11) had the BEST time taking part in this cooking class. The included return transport to and from the class was organized and safe. The tour of the market in the morning was interesting and entertaining. Our guide was knowledgable and funny. The cooking class itself was SO organized and informative. The staff running it were amazing, helpful and funny. My two boys were able to go through the whole process running their own stations and came out feeling very proud and confident. You will make several delicious dishes for yourself which you get to enjoy at the end. We cannot say enough good things about this program. If you are thinking about doing it you will not regret it. It really is SO good! Thank you Ketut!
Amazing cooking class in Bali! Everything was very well organized, the ingredients were fresh, and the instructor explained everything clearly in English. We had a great time and the food was delicious. Highly recommended! 😊
What a great experience! Im a chef and loved the market tour in the morning, trying different fruits and meeting the local vendors. The class was clean, organised and well run, our hosts spoke excellent english, so it was easy to follow. And in typical Balinese style, they were super friendly and welcoming. We had many laughs and learnt some delicious dishes. I've already replicated them at home and they were very popular with my guests. It wasn't far out of Ubud and the pick up service was punctual and informative about the local area. What a great morning, plus you get the bonus of a huge delicious lunch. Reasonably priced too, we will definitely return with a bigger group next time. Thank you !
This cooking class was so much fun and you gain experience on cooking Balinese cuisine. This is defiantly a must try, I will be making these dishes back home. There’s so much food and will definitely fill you up.
We were picked up from our hotel & taken to food market. From here got to taste some fruit in the market while we toured around while learning a lot about different food. Had a great time cooking all our food! All staff were lovely & helpful. At the end, we were able to scan a QR code so we can cook the recipes at home before being dropped back to our hotel. Thank you again to all the staff for a great experience!
From booking to drop off - this was spectacular! All staff were kind, knowledgeable and went out their way to make sure the experience was unforgettable. The market visit was educational and fun and we learnt a lot of new cooking skills. The staff made the process simple and we managed to cook two sauces and four dishes in just over two hours before sitting down to enjoy the meal. This was interactive and informative, and came with the menus for us to try this again at home! To top it all off, staff offered to drop participants off to a different location to the pick up point meaning we could enjoy a full day in Ubud. Thanks again to the team!
It was an incredible experience, I highly recommend! The food is delicious and the people are wonderful. A menu of the dishes is provided at the end and the market tour was insightful.
What a fun experience! We enjoyed the tour of the local market to start - interesting insight into daily life. Then onto the cooking class. Ketut and his family host a fun, vibrant morning of cooking. Well organised and easy to follow. Best satay on our trip.
An unforgettable experience! The cooking class was very informative! The visit to the local market was fascinating and the atmosphere was fantastic. We truly enjoyed learning how to prepare a delucious Indonesian menu . Highly recommended!

I really enjoyed my cooking class at Ketut's Balinese Cooking Class. Six of us, of different nationalities, were collected from our various hotels and taken to a village outside Ubud. We walked around Pejeng Market, tried some produce, and were shown the type of ingredients we would be using. On arrival at the cooking school, we were welcomed with a welcome drink. Then we were given a demonstration of how we would be making all of the dishes we would be preparing and eating. Everything was extremely well organised and we all made our own individual meals, then sat down together to eat all the dishes. Since I had not had a special meal the previous day, this became my special Christmas meal, just a day late.
Our day started with a visit to the market. We learned about Balinese spices, fruits, vegetables and sauces. Then, we had a fun, guided, hands on cooking part of the class. The place is extremely organized and clean, the class flow was perfect. The setting of a beautiful courtyard, with Balinese music playing in the background was beautiful and relaxing. The food turned out wonderfully, very tasty. Ketut and his family have made it a great experience.
I joined the Ubud Hands-on Chef Bali cooking class in September, and it was an absolutely amazing experience. The class was very interactive and truly hands-on, allowing participants to be involved from start to finish. The chef explained every step clearly and patiently, making it easy to follow even for beginners. The menu options were very complete, including both vegetarian and non-vegetarian menus, so everyone could choose according to their preferences. All ingredients were fresh and high quality, and the kitchen was clean and comfortable. In addition to learning authentic Balinese cooking techniques, the atmosphere was fun and enjoyable. Highly recommended for anyone looking for an authentic cooking experience in Ubud.
We joined the Ubud Cooking Class Bali with Balinese Chef as a family, and it was an absolutely wonderful experience for all of us. From the moment we arrived, we felt warmly welcomed by the friendly and professional team. This cooking class is truly hands-on, which makes it very fun and engaging, even for family members who are new to cooking. The Balinese chef guided us step by step with patience and clear explanations, sharing not only cooking techniques but also cultural stories behind each dish. It was a great learning experience for both adults and children. One of the best things about this class is the complete menu with both vegetarian and non-vegetarian options. Everyone in our family could enjoy cooking dishes that suited their preferences. The ingredients were fresh, and the traditional Balinese spices made every dish flavorful and authentic. The location in Ubud is peaceful and beautiful, creating a relaxed atmosphere that is perfect for a family activity. The kitchen was clean, well organized, and comfortable. After cooking, we enjoyed eating the food together, and everything tasted delicious. It was very satisfying to enjoy meals we cooked ourselves. This cooking class is not only about food, but also about bonding, culture, and having fun together as a family. We learned a lot and brought home great memories from this experience. I highly recommend Ubud Cooking Class Bali with Balinese Chef to families visiting Ubud. It is definitely worth it and deserves five stars!
So much fun great organisation from the team helping us to create wonderful food with a great fun atmosphere too. All relaxed and filling a trip to the market in the morning we had all our meals finished in time for lunch. I say skip lunch and come here and cook your own it’s great value family time.
We were a group of 5 women from California and we loved everything about this class. From the pick up to the market place and learning all about the fruits, vegetables etc. to the cooking class. The cooking kitchen was clean, airy, and well lit. We got all the recipes and hope to make it back home. Thank you for the wonderful experience and we would highly recommend Ketut's cooking class to all who visit Ubud, Bali.
