“This was an absolutely fantastic 5 star tour of Ubud and surrounding destinations. My driver was Mr J and he was excellent, you couldn’t want for a more professional, helpful or knowledgeable guide. He took care of all arrangements anRead more”
Review of Ubud’s private full-day tour with Monkey Forest, rice terraces, temple, waterfall, market, palace, lunch, and jungle swing.
“Our driver and tour guide was Dudy. He was very personable and knowlegable. He told us a lot of Balinese culture. And he was great about asking if we wanted family photos in all the locations. Our 1st stop was at Satria Luwak Coffee. Here they gave a tour of all different plants, cocoa, coffee, then there was a tasting session where you were able to taste 13 different teas and coffees. I do not like coffee but they were so good I ended up buying a package to take home! Then we went to the monkey forest. I loved just watching the monkeys some had a stone of sort…”
Review of Day Trip Bali’s Nusa Penida boat tour, with four snorkel stops, manta rays, lunch, Kelingking Cliff, pricing, and practical tips.
“My wife and I loved the snorkeling. Fantastic experience. We saw two dolphins from the boat, one turtle while snorkeling, and many closeup encounter with Mantas at the last stop. We will cherish the Mantas experience. Ceco and Aldo were excellent guides and were very helpful with our lack of experience, made us feel safe and enabled us to have a great time.”
Review of Ubud’s private day tour, with temples, waterfall, rice terraces, monkey forest, local art, pricing, tips, and honest drawbacks.
“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.”
Explore North Bali on a private tour to Ulun Danu, Banyumala Waterfalls, Jatiluwih rice terraces, and Tanah Lot for $100 per person.
“It was an amazing adventure. Our Guide Wayan was excellent. I loved all the different activities, and to have lunch overlooking the rice terraces was beautiful. My only criticism and concerns for anyone, going to the waterfall, although beautiful, it is NOT for everyone, getting to the falls is quite the journey steep hill walking just to get to the waterfall steps, and the steps down to the waterfall were treacherous, extremely steep, not much of a handrail, once down it was incredible but then you had to walk back up. So word of warning on this.”

Review of Nusa Penida’s $78 day trip with four snorkel stops, manta rays, Kelingking Beach, lunch, transport, and practical tips.
“Very well planned and organised. Very focused on Safety and what to look out for in each area. Appreciated the car and trip to Kelingking Cliff, with guide helping to take good photos. Prima and Fino paid very good attention to each participant's safety by making sure everyone kept up and moving as a group amidst different water current situations.”
Review of the Mount Bromo sunrise tour from Surabaya or Malang, with jeep travel, crater views, breakfast, costs, timing, and practical tips.
“Our guide, Pram made this such a wonderful tour. It felt like we got to spend time with a friend, playing UNO as we waited for the sunrise. She brought us to all the best spots that weren’t too crowded, and helped us get great pictures. She also gave us local recommendations for later near our hotel. She is wonderful and it was a pleasure learning about Indonesian culture from her while enjoying beautiful scenery! Looking into the crater (and smelling!) was an incredible experience.”

Review of Bali’s $80 Nusa Penida West tour, with boat logistics, Kelingking views, lunch, guide quality, road conditions, and practical booking advice.
“My guide showed up 20 minutes early but I was ready. He spoke some basic English but my hopes for a tour with stories and history were non existent. As a solo traveller the cost of this tour was excessive for what I got.”
