My day trip was a great experience! I built memories that I will cherish for the rest of my life. I was a bit nervous travelling solo that day, but my guide Suret made the whole experience so amazing and comfortable! I got picked up in Kuta and had my own itinerary. First he confirmed my itinerary to make sure there is no confusion. Next we started our journey to Ubud to see the rice terrace, the holy water temple, and last but not least the coffee plantation! Suret is also very skilled in photography! He knew all the good spots at the temple and directed me for poses and took fantastic shots!! On the way I we talked about Bali, Indonesia in general and the culture. I asked my questions and learned a lot! Also, he explained everything at the temple in detail that made the experience even more meaningful. Overall, I highly recommend it. If you want to build your own itinerary don’t hesitate!! 😄

I booked a tour with Komang today and he was fantastic. He was punctual, friendly, flexible, safe driver, and a great photographer! I am traveling as a solo female and he was very respectful and made me feel safe. We were able to go everywhere I wanted, and he recommended an additional temple that I had not heard of, which turned out to be the best one and I am so glad that he recommended. He stopped anywhere I wanted and did not rush me through any of the stops. He took me to a great place for lunch and ate with me (at my request). The highlight was visiting the waterfalls, where he carried my bag for me and watched my items while I enjoyed the experience. He also took fabulous photos of me- definitely Instagram worthy!

Yumic was an amazing guide, informative, fun and made the day run smoothly. It was a great adventure with little hiccups that were handled quickly and efficiently. Uluwatu Kecak dance was fantastic. Unfortunately, we didn’t get the sunset with it, but we didn’t get wet so that was also a bonus. Overall a long bit wonderful day if you’re happy to go with the flow!
