My wife and I are on our honeymoon and we decided to tour the Water Temple, Rice Fields, and Waterfalls for our last day in Bali. We were very fortunate to have Ariga as our amazing guide for this day! He picked us up in our hotel in Ubud, and tailored the itinerary to our location and preferences. He went above and beyond to talk us through all the cultural and spiritual aspects of the Water Temple & way of life in the rice fields, and most importantly, took amazing photos of us at the waterfalls! If you book this tour, I highly recommend you ask for him as your guide - we had an amazing day. Thank you Ariga!

Thanks to our guide Rhory this trip became simply amazing. He guided us through the jungle, provided useful and interesting information about all our curiosities, made sure we are comfortable and safe and also being very patient. We choosed to change Munduk waterfall with Ulun Danu Beratan temple and proved to be a very good choice. The landscape was amazind and I have no words to describe the waterfalls. If you choose Rhory for this trip, you will not be disappointed and he will also take wonderful photos which will last forever. Once again, a big thank you to Rhory!
