Top Ubud Private Sightseeing Tours - page 4

Dode was my driver and guide, while Traiton took amazing pictures, they were patient and adhered to all my every need and question. Drove Bali rid rides safe yet swiftly, so safely I slept a few times from jet lag, they were so understanding and showed me MAJOR highlights of Ubud! Perfect for my physique and energy! I got to see and experience so much of the area in a requested amount of time due to my energy levels. They both were protective and thoughtful! Thee Best Guides I’ve Ever Experienced, as they responded to my needs with no complaints, I appreciate this experience ten fold!! I mostly appreciate the AMAZING guides and photographer, respectfully always by my side as a solo traveler!

Our driver/guide Prayoga made our experience amazing. He is funny and knowledgeable and a great driver! What beautiful places we saw. The best lunch I ever had in Bali was on this tour it includes a meal at this incredible resort in the jungle with stunning views. Would do again 100%. Thank you!!!

One of the best experiences we have had as travellers over many decades. This is for anyone who wants a great cooking class AND wants to learn about Balinese culture, religion and daily life. We were picked up, on time, by Putu and her husband Pasta (yes - Pasta) from our accommodation. The drive was interesting, travelling from Ubud through a rural landscape to their small village (150 close-knit families). Pasta is a calm and skilled driver. When we arrived Putu showed us all the buildings that make up her familiy's area. These include ceremonial places. She described the function of each and the various Hindu Gods represented in their temple. Then to the cooking: Putu took us through several techniques and helped us to prepare a multi-course, delicious meal, which we ate at the end of the session. (Made, her assistant was on hand to help if needed). As we grated, grilled, chopped, mixed and boiled, Putu happily answered all of our questions about Bali, the village and anything else we were interested in. Cooking in a kitchen, with a roof, but mainly open to tbe sides was wonderful, especially when the rain pounded on the roof! The gardens - a farm really - were all around us and it is amazing how many types of fruit, vegetables and roots (and rice of course) that Putu's family grow. Putu showed us around the grounds before we started cooking) After eating Putu and Pasta drove us back to Ubud. Anyone coming to within reach of Putu's class should sign up - it is both a culinary and cultural experience! Many thanks to Putu! We learned so much. By the way: Putu also has an AirBNB in the village. It is called Rumah Pondok Kembar (maybe Pondak, not Pondak - my photo has a leaf over the word!)

We absolutely loved our day tour of Ubud. Our guide Ardi was just the best, English speaking so no communication barriers and he has the best sense of humour. Ardi was friendly, knowledgeable and so helpful. He showed us around each place and was also a fantastic photographer for us, so we now have many happy moments captured of our time in Ubud. We’re so glad that we chose this tour as it meant we could see so much but still enjoyed some time at each location, our tickets were organised at each place by Ardi and lunch was overlooking one of the rice terraces. Highly recommend this experience and we would happily book with Ardi next time we visit! Cassi & Brett, Australia.

Budi was our driver and did an excellent job. He’s a great friendly driver and spoke good English, which made the communication very easy. He also helped us with taking photos which we really appreciate, and he recommended some good spots for us to visit. I would definitely book with Budi for future visits.

This was exactly what we were looking for, an unstructured tour where we could create our own itinerary. Our driver Agung was fantastic, and he helped us plan where to go and in which order. He was also so knowledgeable and willing to share about Balinese culture, that we felt like we learned a lot that day.

This was our first tour in Bali and was a great introduction to Ubud. Sakha was such a friendly tour guide and ensured that we had an amazing day out. He was patient and allowed us opportunity to explore all the destinations fully and we have got some excellent photos to capture the day. Would definitely recommend this tour to hit all the must see aspects in Ubud

What a great ride! We went through a small village, back roads and along dirt tracks through the rice fields. Everywhere you looked was picturesque and I kept wanting to stop to take a picture. There are some rougher single track places so if you’re not used to riding on those, it might be a bit intimidating but overall it was an easy ride, almost downhill the entire way. They gave us breakfast and lunch and a stop at a coffee plantation. I do have to warn people NOT to try or buy the famous Luwak/civet coffee as the treatment of the civets in captivity is known to be cruel and inhumane. Not all places treat these animals poorly but you can’t tell who does and who doesn’t and you can’t tell what’s real or fake and you can’t tell if it’s wild or captive civets that are used to produce the coffee so best just to avoid all of it. The plantation tells you they collect wild civet feces to produce their coffee but there’s no way they can go around in the forests to collect enough coffee from wild cover feces to make their coffee so just avoid it.
