Royal Songan Lake Batur Cruise & Cultural Show
Nestled inside the UNESCO-listed Batur Geopark, Lake Batur is one of Bali’s most breathtaking natural landmarks. Now, you can explore it like never before on the Royal Songan Lake Batur Cruise—the first and only cultural boat tour in Kintamani.
Swap the crowded beach clubs of the south for the crisp highland air and glassy waters of a volcanic caldera. Whether you want to join a scheduled sailing, host a private gathering, or enjoy a romantic charter, this cruise offers a serene and memorable escape with Mount Batur and Mount Abang as your backdrop.
What to Expect on Your Kintamani Cruise
Every sailing on the Royal Songan Cruise blends spectacular natural scenery with rich Balinese heritage. During your journey, you will experience:
- Iconic Landmarks: Sail past the sacred Pura Jati Segara floating temple, the mystical Trunyan Village (famous for its unique open-air burial rites), and the towering Statue of Dewi Danu.
- Live Cultural Show: Enjoy an onboard performance of “The Tale of Balingkang,” a captivating story rooted in the golden age of the Bali Aga civilization.
- Unmatched Scenery: Experience the stillness of the lake and panoramic views of active volcanoes, far away from the busy waters of Benoa Harbour.
