Begin your journey in a traditional Balinese home in Besan village, where a local drink and a warm welcome introduce the village’s sweet heritage and community values by the local guardian. Watch sap being collected from palm trees using age-old techniques, and experience first-hand the transformation of palm sap into brown sugar.

After the demonstration, you’ll be invited to enjoy traditional snacks made from freshly cooked brown sugar. Served in a local home, these sweet treats capture the essence of Besan’s heritage.

Continue your journey to Kusamba, a coastal village where the centuries-old tradition of salt making has been recognized as part of Indonesia’s Intangible Cultural Heritage. Witness how sea salt is still produced using traditional Balinese methods passed down through generations, where local artisans transform pure seawater into natural organic salt through sun evaporation without any chemical additives.

Spend a day in the heart of Klungkung alongside local villagers, learning traditions passed down for generations. Experience the making of dodol, traditional brown sugar, arak from fermented nira, and handmade salt. Taste, learn, and bring home authentic creations—simple moments filled with real Balinese culture and stories.
