Review of a private Ubud day tour with monkeys, rice terraces, temple springs, waterfall, lunch, transport, and a Balinese swing.

“I definitely recommend this trip/package to anyone who is coming to Bali for the first time. Our tour guide/driver was Suli and he was great. He picked us up at our hotel on time. He gave us enough time to explore each stop. He did a great job taking our photos too! It took us almost 3 hours to get back to our hotel and we greatly appreciated Suli's hard work.”

He was very patient and did not hurry us if we took long to view the places. Also Putra is a good photographer. Although, he took us to two pricey tourist restaurants where food was bland and way too salty.”

Review of Nusa Penida’s full-day boat, four-snorkel, manta ray, and Kelingking tour, with honest advice on price, safety, timing, and value.

“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.”
