Had an amazing day with Raka. He was an excellent guide and driver for the day. Our family would highly recommend this excursion.
Juli was a fantastic guide and did well to balance the sights with the needs of our toddler. He was prompt and a great driver. It was a good range of sights to see through the area
What a great day! Tegeg our guide & driver was excellent he provided much more than the history of the sites we visited. We learned so much about Bali & Indonesian culture. This day was the highlight of our trip. Tegeg was flexible with our needs and very attentive. Thank you for great memory. Highly recommend day tour & Tegeg.
Great day out … Kawi was such a great guide and was flexible with the itinerary loved seeing the Tibumana waterfall, rice fields and temple. Definitely recommend!
Oka took my parents and I on this tour and we all had an amazing time. He was fully considerate of my parents age and pace. He also answered all our questions and provided us into so much insight into Balinese culture. He was flexible and adjusted our itinerary to accommodate all our requests. He is also really fluent in English which made communication really easy. When it was time lunch he took us to get the best Original Balinese Chicken geprek we have ever tasted! He also took very good pictures and videos of us and took us to the best photo opps spots! I would definitely recommend doing this tour with Oka!
Had an amazing experience with Juli, who was an awesome tour guide! We saw all the hit spots with more than enough time at each stop. Juli shared interesting facts on the tour of the temple and let us eat lunch and hang out on our own when there wasn’t a tour part. We got to see all of the top spots and eat 2 meals in about 9 hours including transportation.
Our driver Rio was great. He was very attentive and had extensive knowledge of Bali. Was more than happy to answer any questions we had and went above and beyond to take the best pictures for us. Would highly recommend this experience as it was so good
Raka was a great guide! He was always on time and clear about meetup times/places, he was super flexible and accommodating, and he had so many fun facts and experiences he shared with us. I’d definitely recommend checking out the wood carving shop, but maybe not the batik/weaving stop—it was very cool to see the process for batik and weaving, but that was kind of overshadowed by a giant gift shop that was filled with things that seemed factory made/mass produced. The temple was STUNNING and so cool to explore—but it’s important to note that you’re not allowed to enter if you’re menstruating. We were impressed and entertained by the monkey forest, but we might have been even more impressed by an impromptu pit stop Raka recommended at Kemenuh butterfly park! It’s a pretty spot where you can walk through at your leisure, but there’s also different dedicated spots with netting to hold in SO MANY butterflies! There were so many different sizes and colors and variations, it was actually a little overwhelming how many butterflies were fluttering around. There was also a cocoonery, where you could see cocoons and chrysalises for huge moths and about 3-4 different kinds of butterflies (and some huge stick bugs!). Many of the butterflies were actively hatching, and you could hold one of the fully hatched/grown butterflies or moths with the help of a staff member. All in all, it was a great day thanks to Raka!
This was an excellent tour. Our guide (Rudi) made it perfect. His English was impeccable and his guidance throughout the day was enthusiastic and passionate and informative. The choice of places to visit gave us an appreciation of the Ubud area and culture. Can we please highly recommend this tour - one of the best we've done.
I’ve just returned from the most perfect day exploring Ubud with my wonderful guide and driver, Oka — and I honestly couldn’t recommend him highly enough. Oka is one of the best guides I’ve ever experienced. He was punctual, incredibly knowledgeable and informative, endlessly patient, and had the biggest smile and warmest heart throughout the entire day. Most importantly, he genuinely cared about making sure I had the most wonderful experience possible. He took the time to listen to what I was interested in and what I wanted to see, and then tailored the day perfectly around me. Nothing ever felt rushed, and I felt completely looked after from beginning to end. We visited some truly beautiful places, including the stunning Tegalalang Rice Terrace, Tegenungan Waterfall, the beautiful Pura Puseh Desa Batuan Temple, and the Sacred Monkey Forest, where the cheeky monkeys certainly kept things entertaining! 🐒 I enjoyed every single moment of the day, and so much of that was down to Oka’s kindness, enthusiasm and wonderful personality. If you’re looking for the perfect day around Ubud, please ask for Oka. Take it from me — you won’t regret it! Oka, THANK YOU SO MUCH for such a magical day. I’ll remember it for a very long time. ❤️
