Best tour and best driver ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ - Our experience in Bali was truly unforgettable, especially for those looking to relax, heal, and reconnect with nature. From the peaceful rice fields to the hidden waterfalls and lush jungle views, every moment felt refreshing and calming. A special thanks to our driver, Yande, who made this journey even more enjoyable. He was not only professional and reliable, but also very friendly and attentive to our needs. He made us feel comfortable throughout the entire trip, always ensuring we were happy and well taken care of. This tour is highly recommended for anyone visiting Bali, whether you are a solo traveler, a couple, or even a group. It’s the perfect combination of nature, relaxation, and adventure. We truly felt happy and satisfied with this experience, and it became one of the highlights of our trip. We will definitely come back to Bali and do this tour again. Highly recommended!

Worth every penny, Trust me!! - This experience was 10/10. First, Yande (our driver and guide) was AMAZING! He picked us up on time, was very friendly and funny but also very knowledgable about the country. He brought us to the healers house which was an incredible experience! We then went to the silver making factory and he was so patient waiting for us to buy our items. We then headed to the rice terraces, he took great pics and told us all about the process of the rice. Lastly we went to the healing water temple which was so spiritual and beautiful. The experience was one of a kind & so was our guide. Suksma yande ❤️🙏🏻

Amazing Day Trip - We had an amazing whole day experience with De Putro. He drove us around his comfortable car all around Ubud including stops to an art gallery, wood carver, old temple and silver factory. The highlight was the Shaman healing and the purification ceremony which De Putro explained everything throughout and took amazing pictures. The tour was well organized and everything was included so we did not have any hassles. We recommend De Putro and this tour!

Yande felt like a friend, not a guide - I was on my own, and from the moment I sat up front with Yande, it felt like a good friend was driving me around Bali—not a scripted tour. He was an absolute delight: curious, thoughtful, and incredibly generous with his knowledge. I asked a lot of questions (Hinduism, architecture, family life, school, customs), and he answered every one with patience and enthusiasm. Our first stop was a traditional healer. Yande explained the family compound and Balinese customs in a way that made everything feel meaningful rather than touristy. The highlight of the entire day was the self-purification ritual. He taught me the prayers, explained the offering bowl, and literally held my hand to guide me safely into the pools. That kind of care and cultural context made the experience deeply enriching and unforgettable. Our last stop was the rice terraces. I believe in doing the thing you’re supposed to do in the place you’re supposed to do it—so I splurged on the swing. Turns out, I get very motion sick. I was lightheaded afterward, and without hesitation, Yande got me water, then stopped in the next village to buy me a Coke and a Fresh Care aromatherapy roller. Within minutes, I felt better. Problem solved, calmly and kindly. All day, Yande went above and beyond. He was attentive without hovering, knowledgeable without lecturing, and genuinely kind. It truly felt like being shown around by a friend, not a guide checking boxes. I’m so grateful for his hospitality and would recommend him without hesitation.

Full Day Experience - If you are looking for a full day experience this would be a good one to do. Lots of things to see and do and lunch was not only delicious but also set in beautiful sun.

Loved it! - Edy was great and flexible with the itinerary. The only reason I am not giving 5 stars is the driver was an hour and a half late because there was a missed communication between visitor and the local tour company.,
