Great tour of Bali!

Don’t know if we could possibly have packed more in to a day! We saw so much more of Bali than we thought we could and thoroughly enjoyed it all. Our guide Arsa was so friendly and accommodating of our interests! He answered so many of our questions and seemed so proud to show us Bali. He pointed out so many interesting things along the way which we appreciated. We expressed an interest in local batik clothing and he added on a trip to a place where it’s made which we loved seeing. We were pooped when we got back to the hotel but happy pooped! Highly recommend this tour and our guide Arsa. You won’t be disappointed!

Very nice half day tour

I took this trip as I did not have much time. The trip was very nice. I enjoyed the the different points where we stopped. The driver (Bagus) was very nice and helpful. I hope I would have more time to enjoy Bali.
