    What a great tour. It was all made memorable thanks to Nyoman my tour guide. Very knowledgeable of his culture he was very informative. Aside from the heat factor I have all but good memories at the Uluwatu temple. The Kecak dance was also amazing. Would definitely recomment this to anyone .

    Neil_R, Dec 2024
    Still entertaining after 10 years when last saw the dance! Note you will be packed in the arena like sardines just adding to the ‘atmosphere’. Watch out for naughty monkeys before who take any opportunity to nab your phone or sunnies! They are everywhere.

    Thank you very much for the review, we hope we can meet again on another tour and activity in Bali. If there any other service need that we can help, please do not hestitate to let us know anytime. Kind Regards Putra Manik

    Great half day in Uluwatu

    Ashish_S, Sep 2024
    We had an excellently organised trip to see the Uluwatu Temple and the amazing Kecak fire dance. Great atmosphere throughout, tackling the cheeky monkeys on our path through the temple and at the evening show. Thanks to Made Karyana our driver and guide who took excellent photos of us and looked after us well.

    Response from Host, Sep 2024

    Karya is a great guide!

    Sonali_P, May 2024
    Our guide Karya was very knowledgable, our hotel was quite hard to get to and he and his driver made such a good effort to get to us! Karya knows alot about history and culture. The Jimbaran dinner part of the tour had a very small amount of food but Karya let us know that beforehand so that we could be prepapred and order more food if we required

    Great way to see kecak

    Megan_M, Mar 2024
    This was a great option to see Uluwatu and the kecak— we did the option without dinner. It was a long drive to and from the temple, but it was very comfortable in the air conditioning and our guide Putu was a great driver! The kecak was amazing and it was great to be able to skip the ticket line.

    Response from Host, Apr 2024

    Thank you for positive comment on our guest review. We will keep present our best service in the future for every tour and activity experience for everyone. See you again on the next vacation in Bali sir and madam. Kind Regards Putu & All Team

    100% recommend!!!

    Vadanya_R, Nov 2023
    A wonderful experience! Komang was the best tour guide we could’ve asked for! He catered for all of our needs throughout the evening. He picked us up from our hotel in Nusa Dua and was super knowledgeable about the cultural significances. We got to skip the lines to purchase the kecak dance tickets and Komang sat us down for the best dance and sunset spot. He was also very fluent in English making the experience wonderful for us! Thank you Komang for a wonderful evening and we can’t wait to meet you again for our future adventures!

    Response from Host, Nov 2023

    Thank you very much for the review on our amazing sunset time sir. Hopefully i can meet you again on another tour in Bali Best Regards Komang

    Monkey Business

    John_W, Sep 2023
    Once again, we were blessed with Komang, the best driver/guide/photographer in Bali. He was our driver in Ubud also. For Uluwatu temple tour he made the trip extraordinary also. Warnings about the wild monkeys, best photo spots, Kecak dance tips(sit high for view and for sea breeze). He is an amazing driver also. The tour was planned meticulously to afford us comfort and minimize impacts of the crowded tourist destination. Request Komang from Ubud for both Uluwatu and Ubud adventures. Namaste!

    Response from Host, Oct 2023

    All of us team Seminyak Tour Driver Bali wish Thank you very much for the review. We hope we can meet on another tour in Bali. Once again thank you very much and have the best time in Bali and have a great experience Kind Regards Komang Adi

    Amazing performance

    Nikki_J, Aug 2023
    Great tour guide and driver for Uluwatu temple. Mr Black, our guide, shared lots of information and protected us from the very naughty Monkeys. He was also great with our kids. The Kecak dance was amazing, our 11 and 5 year old loved the show.

    Thank you very much for the review, all the best from us Team Seminyak Tour Driver Bali Kind Regards Putra Parta

    Great night in Bali

    Joseph_T, Jul 2023
    Excellent driver/guide and a great experience overall. The Kecak dance was entertaining and the better one we saw whilst on our trip to Bali. The restaurant we went to was a lovely seafood restaurant. Overall recommend.

    Difficult to summarize as the experience is hard to put into words

    Frank_A, Jul 2023
    An amazing way to see Bali culture up close. Traffic is difficult to reach the temple; a guided tour makes it easier but it is still crowded. While waiting, be sure you stay very aware of your surroundings because the monkeys will hold your belongings hostage in exchange for a treat.

    Response from Host, Jul 2023

    Thank you very much for amazing review. Yes please beware with monkey in uluwatu temple and in personally as the guide is always trying to protect and get all the ticket shettled before we arrived on the travel date, on the busy season, will be little bit difficult to expect Uluwatu temple with calm and relaxing visit time. Everyday the traffic is super busy at the moment and also the space is little bit not that big to occupy the large group. I know how you feel becuase i was there with you. In mean time, that was the maximum service i can provide with skip all the line services but still with the que as everyone has skip the line ticket. Next, the best time to start is at 15.00pm and get the second show at 7pm to 8pm More time to watch sunset before show and less crowded. Best Regrds Komang Nata

    A Must Do in Bali

    LINGBOON_G, Jul 2023
    Excellent Kacap performance with beautiful sunset view from top of cliff temple. Beware of heavy traffic congestion in and out of Uluwatu, as well as the stealthy monkeys that go around snatching spectacles & mobile phones from tourists.

    Response from Host, Jul 2023

    Thank you very much for the great review. We apologize for the uncontroled traffic at the moment. Is so full the road now in south Bali. But will be less crowded after the school holiday on middle july coming up. Best Regards Nyoman Nata

    Beware of monkeys

    Kuniko_W, Mar 2023
    The guide was very kind. He protected me from monkeys. The Kecak dance was very powerful and interesting.

    Response from Host, Mar 2023

    Yes we always protect our guest from the Monki. Some time they agresive if hungry, ensure not wearing sunglasses and jewellery. The rest we will heandle it , have a great trip and see you again on the next holiday Best Regards Darmawan and Jana

    Amazing show

    Wendy_G, Oct 2022
    The temple was lovely (it's very busy as it is a well known tourist spot) but just stand in the ocean breeze for a few moments and take it all in - the dance and chanting were AMAZING

    Response from Host, Oct 2022

    Thank you very much for the great review. Hope we can meet again in the future sir. Best Regards Made and Team

    Amazing!

    Kelsey_T, Oct 2019
    This tour was so much fun and so interesting! The dance was mesmerizing and the seafood dinner on the beach afterwards was so romantic my husband and I really enjoyed ourselves. Kadek was great as a tour guide showing us around and teaching us about the temples and making sure we got good seats for the sunset and show. definitely recommend this tour!
