I had a really great time at Taro! The place is located in a quiet and peaceful area – perfect for slowing down and enjoying nature. Anton is a super helpful, kind, and funny person. He showed us around the area and took great care of me when I got sick, which I really appreciated. We built a jacuzzi together, which was a lot of fun – even though it got pretty exhausting at times. Overall, it was a beautiful experience in a lovely place with nice people.

It was a really nice experience in Taro. It is quite and full in the nature. You have to deal with many tasks of the locals to create a good space for human and nature. Even when the task were sometimes hard it was really nice to see the result. Anton was really kind and open minded. He welcomed everyone with open arms. Also everyone else, who worked here, enjoys to deal with you and give you a feeling like home.

Taro Tour in Weddanga (near Kintamani, Bali) was the most authentic experience I've had as a solo traveler. Far from tourists, I helped with social media, website, and online content while living true Balinese village life. The host Taro is kind and inspiring, and Koko & Anton made the whole journey unforgettable. Peaceful views, local food, and real culture not just volunteering, but finding a second home. Highly recommended for anyone wanting real connection and purpose. This is not your typical Bali adventure. No tourists, no crowds — just real connection, culture, and nature.

What a lovely experience with Anton and the family! Felt so truly welcomed by everyone <3. Very reasonable hours and expectations (including the opportunity to learn new building skills!), and got to learn about the beautiful village a bit more. Super serene location too :)
