Engaging with the farmers who tend to these fields, guests learn about the importance of preserving traditional knowledge and supporting local farmers in their quest for sustainable livelihoods.

Bali Starling Breeding & Release Center: Protecting an Endangered Species

The highlight of The Experience is the visit to the Bali Starling Breeding & Release Center, a crucial conservation site dedicated to the protection and rehabilitation of the endangered Bali Starling, a native bird species found only in Bali. The centre serves as a sanctuary for these magnificent birds with the aim to increase their population through successful breeding programs and responsible release into the wild. By participating in this tour, visitors actively contribute to the conservation efforts and the survival of this remarkable species.

Testimony

Avery, one of the guests from the United States gave us his testimony, “I really like Begawan, and how we are able to start in the morning to see the Starling up close and see all the different work they do with the breeding, with pairing them and taking care of them in the morning. For me it’s really fun to come out to the field to the release site and see starlings flying freely in the field.”
