バリ島北部ツアー：バニュマラ滝とワナギリ隠れ丘陵

The tour was very good. Agus was our driver and he was an excellent one. We are really happy that he was assigned as our driver. We visited the north side ir Bali and it was phenomenal

Dharma, my tour guide, is exceptional! He made the entire trip a blast and unforgettable from start to finish. He made sure everything went well throughout the entire trip. The trip was customizable since it was a private tour for me; we visited Banyumala waterfalls (make sure to wear sturdy shoes :-)), Ulun Danu Bratan Temple, etc. What truly sets Dharma apart is his talent at taking pictures and videos to capture the perfect angles and candid moments. I recommend seeking him out as your guide when you come to Bali and join Eco Bali Tours.

Our experience of this trip was very good. Our guide/ driver (Dharma) was a great guy and an amazing photographer! He made this trip memorable for us!

From the start Widi was so friendly and helpful, he spent time explaining all the sights we saw in Bali, he took some amazing photos of my Wife and I, great conversation's in the car, really genuine person, would highly recommend him, we had an amazing day thanks to Widi

After an exceptional first excursion with Netra, we chose to go out with him a second time, and it was perfect once again! Always smiling, kind, punctual, and attentive, Netra adapts to our pace and that of our two children, without ever rushing us. His professionalism and kindness make every day pleasant and memorable. Two experiences, two perfect days! We recommend Netra with our eyes closed to anyone who wishes to discover Bali with a passionate and attentive guide.

The experience was very nice with Netra and I would fully recommend his services for guiding purposes He offers a very high quality service and is very nice with guests 🙏

Ari was our guide and he was friendly and helpful. The waterfall was actually multiple waterfalls and it was incredibly beautiful. The temples were cool as well but the waterfalls were the highlight. Also, lunch was awesome!

Budi was great! He was flexible and accommodating as our schedule was ever changing. He suggested alternative destinations to meet our timelines. The cultural sights were beautiful and enlightening and the nature venues awe inspiring. The encounters with local wildlife (python, monkeys, bats, iguanas) was a terrific addition to the tour. Highly recommend!

I had an amazing trip to the north of Bali! My driver, Naya, was absolutely fantastic. I was traveling solo because I visited in December, and it turned out to be the perfect time — at most of the places he took me, there were almost no other people since it was outside the main season. On the way, Naya told me lots of interesting things about the island, its culture, and the places we visited. He was incredibly kind, thoughtful, and patient. He even tried to take photos of me at every stop so I would have memories from the trip, which I really appreciated as a solo traveler. Overall, it was a wonderful experience, and I can only recommend it!

This was the third day of our 5-day tour in Bali, starting from Ubud. As I mentioned in my reviews of Day 1 and Day 2, I’ve already described our guide Wayan in detail, but I want to repeat everything here for anyone who might be interested only in this specific day. Once again, Wayan was outstanding: incredibly kind, patient, and knowledgeable, always knowing when to give us space and when to step in with explanations or cultural insights. His ability to drive all around Bali without using GPS, his calmness, and his constant smile made every day feel effortless. Most importantly, he remained extremely flexible with the schedule: we left at 8:00 AM and returned late in the afternoon (well past the planned time), yet he never rushed us or hinted that we were taking too long. Because the previous day was affected by bad weather, Wayan suggested reorganizing several stops between Day 2 and Day 3. Some locations originally planned for this day were visited the day before, and some we missed yesterday were added today. Thanks to his planning, we didn’t lose anything, everything was simply rearranged in the best possible way considering the weather. We started the day by visiting Leke Leke Waterfall, originally planned for another day but moved here. The hike to reach the waterfall was incredible, fully immersed in nature, with narrow paths, wooden bridges and a jungle atmosphere that honestly felt like something out of Indiana Jones. However, it’s important to note that the trail can be challenging. It’s steep at times, and not ideal for people who struggle with climbing or uneven terrain. Still, once you reach the bottom, the view is spectacular. The waterfall is tall and elegant, surrounded by dense vegetation. At the base, a local “guardian” was present, not a strict guard, but more like someone ensuring people stayed safe and, surprisingly, offering to take photos for everyone without expecting anything in return. He was incredibly kind. Next, we were supposed to visit Sekumpul Waterfall, but during the hike Wayan received a message from one of his contacts informing him that visiting Sekumpul at that moment would be problematic (likely due to water levels or safety concerns). Without hesitation, he suggested an alternative waterfall that, after checking the photos online, we can confirm was even more beautiful. The name escapes me now, but the place was absolutely stunning. The waterfall was powerful, framed by dark rocks and thick greenery, and the pool beneath it was calm enough to swim in. The water was cold but refreshing, and the setting felt incredibly natural and untouched. If Leke Leke was all about the jungle-style approach, this second waterfall was more about pure scenic beauty, taller, wider, and visually striking. Both are absolutely worth visiting and easily deserve a 10/10. After these two waterfalls, Wayan took us to Wanagiri Hidden Hills, a panoramic viewpoint overlooking a beautiful lake. This area is known for its Instagram-style photo spots (nests, swings, etc.), but even without taking staged photos, the view itself is worth the stop. It’s peaceful, breezy, and offers a beautiful look over the water and mountains. We then stopped at the Handara Iconic Gate. To be completely honest, and as Wayan himself told us, this is not a sacred site or a temple entrance. It’s simply a picturesque gate placed along a road, with the mountains behind it creating a nice background. Many people wait in long lines just to take a photo for Instagram, but we agreed with Wayan that it wasn’t worth waiting. We just took a couple of pictures from outside and moved on. There are places in Bali that deserve a lot more of your time than this, and it was refreshing to have a guide who openly said so. Our last major stop was a temple, which had originally been planned for another day but was moved to today because the weather had finally improved. If I remember correctly it was the Ulun Danu Beratan Temple, located on the edge of a beautiful lake. This place was absolutely wonderful. We walked around the temple grounds for about an hour, enjoying the cool air, the reflections on the water, and the peaceful atmosphere. The temple’s position on the lake makes it incredibly photogenic — almost surreal. It was one of the highlights of the day and a perfect way to end the tour. We returned once again late in the afternoon, and as always, Wayan never made us feel rushed or pressured by the schedule. His flexibility, patience and genuine interest in making sure we enjoyed every destination truly made the difference. Overall, this third day was another incredible experience, a mix of adventurous jungle hikes, beautiful waterfalls, serene temples and panoramic views. Once again, Wayan transformed what could have been a complicated day (due to weather changes and trail conditions) into something smooth, enjoyable and memorable. If you are planning to explore Bali, I highly recommend booking this tour — and if possible, ask for Wayan. He continues to be the best guide we could ever hope for.
