Cruise in Kintamani and Sail Lake Batur Your Way
Kintamani’s Only Cultural Cruise on Lake Batur
Nestled inside the UNESCO-listed Batur Geopark, Lake Batur is one of Bali’s most breathtaking natural landmarks — and now, it’s best explored from the water.
Royal Songan Cruise offers Bali’s first and only cultural cruise in Kintamani, taking you across the glassy surface of Lake Batur against the dramatic backdrop of Mount Batur and Mount Abang. Whether you’re joining a scheduled sailing, booking a Kintamani charter boat for a private event, or seeking an intimate private boat charter for two, there’s an experience perfectly tailored for you.
Each cruise passes iconic local landmarks: the sacred Pura Jati Segara floating temple, the mystical Trunyan Village — home to Bali’s unique open-air burial rites — and the revered Statue of Dewi Danu. Onboard, guests enjoy live performances of “The Tale of Balingkang,” a cultural story rooted in the golden age of Bali Aga.
Unlike the crowded beach clubs of Seminyak or the busy waters of Benoa Harbour, a boat tour in Kintamani feels genuinely remote and serene. The crisp highland air,
the stillness of a caldera lake, and the living cultural heritage make this one of the most memorable experiences in all of Bali.
Book your cruise in Kintamani today — departures every Wednesday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.
