Top Seminyak Day Trips - page 38

This was a great, well balanced and paced tour taking in the highlights of the Ubud region in Bali. The half day tour included four diversified locations, starting with the Monkey Forest right at feeding time, followed by the majestic rice terraces. We then continued to a local and serene Ubud temple finishing with a visit to a coffee plantation complete with free tastings of 14 varieties of coffee and tea. We then stopped for lunch at an atmospheric restaurant overlooking rice fields. The tour company, Bali Local Host, was very easy to communicate with and my assigned tour guide, Esa, was excellent. He is youthful and cheerful, always with a smile, and very knowledgeable about Bali and all the locations we visited. He speaks excellent English and is fun and easy to talk to. I would love to have Esa as my guide on any future tour. The tour began at 8am from my hotel in Seminyak and I was dropped off at about 2.30pm, leaving the afternoon free to relax and explore. This was the perfect schedule for my plans. I highly recommend booking this tour if you plan on visiting Bali and would like a cultural experience.

Such a great experience from A to Z. The tour was very organized from the meeting point to the end. We were in two cars with Putu and Komang, very helpful team, very caring guys, and efficient and made sure to reach before the crowdedness starts in all the places.

Very good experience. The tour operator suggested to start earlier than the normal time and it was an excellent idea as we avoided crowds and traffic which gets chaotic around Ubud later in the morning. Our guide, Mr. Putu, was very nice, informative and let us spend as much time as we liked at the various places.
