This multi-site tour is a great experience with much to offer. The hidden gorge was a bigger challenge than we expected. Our guide through the gorge really stepped up and helped my wife, which we greatly appreciated.
The waterfall was beautiful, and the temples were fascinating.
Our tour guide and driver was Dawa, and he was great too. Very friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable about the temples.
Sometimes you have a guide that brings so much knowledge and passion to the experience that it is life changing. This is one of those times. Kettle, our guide provided an education on the history and living culture of Bali throughout the day. Born and raised in Bali he was able to create unique interactions with locals that opened the door to many special moments. Every request we made was enhanced with the added knowledge he brought to the table. Lastly, the vehicle was very nice and his driving skills were impressive. Highly recommend him.
The stops weren’t exact but truly great half day in Bali
Ketut Ajus was a fabulous tour guide. The stops did not match the listing on Viator (Batuan temple instead of the Elephant Cave) but it was still an incredible time. We don’t like long tour days so this was the perfect amount of stops and a nice variety. Ketut was so friendly, explained the architecture and culture, and even recommended and drove us to the most amazing spot for lunch- the food there was so delicious and the views were breathtaking. He was so helpful, the car was spotless, he offered to take our photos multiple times, and he even brought us water bottles at a stop. He went above and beyond to ensure we had a phenomenal time- would absolutely love to have Ketut as a tour guide again in the future.
An Unforgettable South Bali Experience Private Tour
Our private South Bali – Uluwatu tour with PUTU ARYA PEBRI ANDIKA was one of the absolute highlights of our trip to Bali.
My wife had a sprained ankle, so we had to customize the tour to minimnze walking. Putu was very flexible and accommodative. He was very personable and considerative, very caring and attentive, yet not intrusive. We did visit a number of places despite the physical limitations, from Nusa Dua beach, Pandawa beach, GWK, Coffee plantation and ending with Uluwatu temple and a truly fitting conclusion with the magical Kecak dance.
Putu is a good driver with good knowledge of the short cuts which are necessary for Bali driving. From start to finish, Putu delivered an experience that was seamless, enriching, and deeply memorable. His English was quite reasonable and he possesses the perfect balance of professionalism, warmth, and local knowledge. We were provided with fascinating insights, cultural stories, and thoughtful details that brought each place to life.
What truly sets Putu apart is his genuine care for his guests. He was attentive without ever being intrusive, flexible with our pace, and always ready with suggestions tailored to our interests. His timing impeccable, and was on site 20 minutes before agreed the pick up time, yet was not in a hurry at the end.
I stronlgy recommend the South Bali tour and the tour guide Putu Arya.
We had booked an ATV experience with a visit to the monkey forest & a visit to the waterfall. Bayu showed us around the area, answered some of our Bali questions as it was our first time here and made us feel at home during the day. He was easy to talk to, made conversations with us, and just came with us to our destinations. Very great service, HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
Krisda was amazing!!!! So glad we got him as our guide. Picked us up on time and took us to all the spots and we were able to enjoy a nice lunch and the ATVS were amazing!! It was such a long drive back but Krisda got us back to the hotel safely. Thank you Krisda!!! You are awesome !!!
We had such a wonderful experience all the activities were great fun, super well organised but what made it incredible was our awesome host Ketut!!!! Top tier service, laughs, organisation and he looked after us so well!! Sooo grateful to him thank you so much for making it an incredible time for us!
Our driver, Komo, gave us a great tour from our hotel in Nusa Dua to the Tagalalang Rice Terrace, Tengenungan Waterfall and Puseh Batuan Temple. We enjoyed lunch at the rice terrace overlooking the terraced rice fields and the various swings. It took seven and a half hours due to some traffic and was enough to fill one day of sightseeing.
Alex is Amazing, Thank you so much for being so kind!
Alex is great!!! He was on time. He suggested great ways (swings) to pass time while we waited for my turn at the Gates of Heaven, he pulled over so I could see the rice fields and explained the processes, and suggested a DELICIOUS local restaurant for lunch (I had take aways). During our travels Alex shared a lot of information on Balinese culture and structure (Great Conversation). We were on the road at 4:30am and I was surprised by the traveling on the road so early for the markets. Balinese work really hard.
We, myself and my guide/driver Gede, started at Tanah Lot first thing in the morning so we avoided the crowds. Then we went to the rice terraces which I highly recommend. We continued to the fruit market and shortly after Ulun Danu. After eating at the tourist focused restaurant there, we headed to the waterfall. While beautiful, I would not recommend the waterfall to anyone with mobility issues as there are a lot of steps down and up. Then we finished by going to Taman Ayun Temple which was more pretty than I expected. From there, we headed back to the hotel. Gede was incredibly helpful throughout the trip providing information about the temples, getting tickets, and driving through the mountainous terrain. If you are fan of visiting these temples, I would recommend this tour.
This is a great shore excursion for cruise passengers. We were picked up by Putu for our private tour directly at the cruise terminal. Putu was attentive and knowledgeable and we had a great day. Visited the Monkey Sanctuary Temples, the terraced rice fields, had lunch overlooking a beautiful waterfall and finally visited a stunning temple before returning to the ship in plenty of time.
Wayan, the owner, was very proactive in keeping me informed about the details of the tour. The tour guide and driver, Kris, also communicated with us to ensure accurate pick up time and location.
Kris was outstanding in every aspect…highly recommend!!!
