“Hendra was the best guide and photographer for my tour. It was a private tour and he knew the best routes and things to do. We did everything on the itinerary and we both had a blast.

See Ubud’s temples, waterfall, rice terraces, monkey forest, market, and palace on a flexible private day tour from Bali hotels.
“The guide was actually a driver that should not be taking women around. His views about men being primary earners was discussed for hours and he mocked women on the street. Several times he discouraged us from making planned stops so he could finish his day earlier. He did not take us to the monkey forest and instead took us to a monkey river so he could get done. I would definitely not recommend this tour.”

“I hired this private tour with the driver Wayan and it was amazing! I learned so much from him about Balinese culture. I definitely recommend this tour if you really want to discover deeply the island. The temples and the rice fields, World Heritage, will not disappoint you. The itinerary is perfect, well-designed, with enough time to enjoy everything.”
Swim with manta rays, snorkel four Nusa Penida sites, see Kelingking Beach, and enjoy lunch on an 8-hour fast-boat day trip from Bali.
“We did this tour and had an absolute blast. The experience was phenomenal. We got to see manta rays, turtles and more. Our guides Fernando and Coral took fantastic care of us. I had never snorkled before and I had no problems. I did get a little sea sick as I wasn't used to the water. That was no problem for them, they came over and took care of us immediately and got us up and running again. If you get Fernando and Coral as your guides, you are in for an experience you will remember for your lifetime.”

Review of a private Uluwatu sunset tour with temple visit, Kecak fire dance, hotel transfers, and optional Jimbaran seafood dinner.
“Edy was a great guide with lots of information about the area. Ula Watu was a great experience and the show spectacular. The meal at Jimbaran was right on the edge of the shore a few meters from the sea. Very idyllic. The food was plenty and a good selection of seafood nicely cooked on the BBQ. Before the Temple we stopped at a coffee plantation which was very enlightening.”
