Hello! I am interested in participating in the temple purification ceremony next Tuesday, November 19. Would it be possible to arrange transportation from Ubud to the temple? Thanks!
Cosette Audi, 12 Nov 2024
Hi Cosette, Thanks for reaching out! As this is a small local business, transportation to the temple isn’t provided. You’ll need to arrange your own transport from Ubud to the temple. :)
Hello, May I ask what bathing suit are you referring to under the category what we need to bring

Yes, it is possible. You can contact chat@seeksophie.com
Hi, We are travelling with a family in january and really hoping to do this ceremony with our whole family. We have 10 adults, and 7 kids (ranging in age, 14, 10, 9, 6, 5, 2, 11 months). Our family is adventurous and happy to carry kids on walks (if required). Can you please let me know if this would be possible and how much it will cost? Look forward to hearing from you.
