“Excellent personalized tour with local guide - Our driver was excellent! He picked us up at our hotel and gave us a few different options of how we wanted to lay out our day and what we wanted to see. He was super friendly and knowledgeable about the local culture. We saw many of the high points near Ubud but from a local perspective. Our driver was especially helpful at the holy water temple and instructed us how the normal ceremonial process goes and what to expect. He took pictures of us everywhere we wanted and was very patient to wait for us to take as long as we wanted at each spot. It truly felt like a custom tour just for me and my two friends. Highly highly recommend!!!” - Reviewed at 2024-07-05
