This tour takes you to the village of Batubulan to see the famous dance Kecak (Monkey) Dance. Performed by a group of at least 50 men who dance in a circle around a blazing torch. This is relatively new dance that has been created from another trance dance called Sanghyang that features a male chorus that chants rhythmically.

Taken from the Hindu epic Ramayana, the dance tells the story of Prince Rama and his rescue of Princess Sita, who has been kidnapped by the evil King of Lanka. The chorus of men, who provide the orchestral accompaniment with complex and varied chants that company their swaying movements. The only music to accompany them are the beats of their palms hitting their chests, their thighs, or other parts of their bodies, or their claps, rhythmically accompanied by shouting and chanting. Flickering torches provide lighting and an enchanting atmosphere.
