Amazing experience! Underrated tour & best of its kind 🙏 - Without a doubt the best tour of its kind! My partner & I went on a couples trip all-inclusive (thinking it was with a group trip) but turns out was a private tour with just us two in a big car and our guide, Agus.
Agus (our driver) was highly knowledgeable, explained everything well, spoke great English, very kind & engaging the whole 11-12 hours of our trip-he also worked for flight centre and is a licensed tour guide which was a plus.
It felt like a private tour throughout because Agus took us to each spot at a great time and we missed all the crowds completely. Agus handled all the fees and everything was organised, tbh it felt great to not have to worry about anything but when we are getting to our next destination. We didn’t feel rushed and although we went over time, he didn’t mind it at all and was happy the whole way. We managed to go to all the places said in the itinerary and not once did he try to shorten it or take shortcuts.
The Balinese village was great to walk through and learn about how they live. Temples were all absolutely beautiful, peaceful and we learnt so much about them.
Lunch was great - a buffet overlooking the terraces.
Did the coffee Luwak experience too which was all included, we paid extra for the Bali swing which was a fun experience, would recommend for those who want to try.
Such a memorable experience overall. Was the best tour we’ve been on in Bali and we’ve been to many!

Ketut Top Driver and Guide - This was a great day out especially because we set out very early in the morning to beat the traffic and crowds which lead to a much more enjoyable experience especially at the Village and Temple.

Great, informative tour with Ketut - It was a great tour - intense with a waterfall hike - remember to take your water shoes with you for that!
Ketut was professional, well prepared and provided good, useful information about the places we visited, the culture and traditions as well as some local practices.
He matched our rhythm well.
Overall - the itinerary worked really well for us, and we loved how the day was structured.

Highly recommend this excellent tour - Ketut was mine and my wife’s private driver and tour guide for our full day Bali trip. He was fun and very knowledgable about all the sights we visited and made life easy for us by including all the admission payments in our original booking. He even included a 3 course buffet lunch! Unfortunately you can only give 5 stars as Ketut deserves more. If you want an excellent full day value for money tour in Bali you will not get a better man than Ketut.

Awesome day ! - We had an unforgettable experience on the temple and waterfall tour, and it was made even more special thanks to our incredible guide, Agung. From the moment we were picked up, Agung was warm, friendly, and extremely knowledgeable. He shared fascinating insights into Balinese culture, history, and spirituality, making each temple visit deeply meaningful. The waterfalls were absolutely breathtaking — Agung even helped us capture some amazing photos and guided us safely through the trails. His professionalism and genuine care made us feel comfortable and welcomed the entire day. We highly recommend this tour for anyone visiting Bali — and if you can, ask for Agung!
