The best way to see Bali in a day. - Made Sutama is an excellent driver and guide and I was well cared for all day. Well worth the long day with so much to see and do and appreciate seeing local people in their daily lives. The session with Sharman was helpful and water purification a beautiful experience; both of which Made kindly filmed. Made this a special day for me here in Bali with his kindness and and fun humour. Many thanks.

Truly a gem and unique one day adventure - The day was well-planned; being healed and have chakras balanced was restorative and mind-opening. I think the purification at the temple was the most impactful for me as my body was in the present moment, and the rushing holy water drowned away my worries and doubts to be well connected with the more whole version I lost touch with. The guide Wayan Remy was an amazing photographer and captured some of the beauty and vitality of the moments I won’t forget. I enjoyed every minute and would recommend to all visitors of Ubud who are seeking for a fresh and unique experience that can transform your life.

Authentic Healing Experience - Our tour guide was Nyoman and we had a great day. He was helpful and let us change the itinerary along the way. The tour is private so you can tailor the day to your needs. The shaman was amazing; the real deal. Very authentic. The water healing was the best! He took us to a place that wasn’t crowded at all. And we had a lovely experience and felt very healing. All in all, it was a great day.

Bali Fun - Jana was my driver and I had a great experience. He was punctual for pick up at my hotel early in the morning. It’s a long day with many stops so plan to wear comfortable shoes. Mengening temple is smaller and less crowded. Much better if you want to do the purification . Jana was helpful and explained a lot about Balinese culture. Five out of five stars.

Amazing Solo Experience - I was on my own, looking for an experience and quiet. De Putro was amazing. He didn’t force me into anything I wasn’t into, he got all the great pics. He was the ideal guide for a solo chick that was a little bit in her feelings. 😂

Fantastic day exploring Ubud with Jana - highly recommend! - We had an incredible day exploring Ubud with our private driver and guide, Jana. From start to finish, his service was exceptional. He was punctual, communicated clearly regarding our pick-up, drop-off, and daily itinerary, which made everything run smoothly. Jana shared so much insightful information about Balinese culture, religion, and the history of Ubud throughout the day, which really enriched our experience. He curated a full-day itinerary with fantastic recommendations and made sure we got the most out of every stop. A real highlight was the temple visit where we took part in a water purification ceremony. Jana prepared offerings for us, guided us through the entire process, and even prayed with us — it was incredibly special and something we’ll never forget. He was warm, friendly, polite, and genuinely passionate about sharing his culture. We couldn’t have asked for a better guide. Highly recommend booking a day with Jana if you're visiting Ubud!

Absolutely fantastic spiritual experience - This was the most amazing day. Healer was spot on with my knee pain. The blessing was beautiful. The temple and silver shop was lovely and lunch was great. The best part of the day was the purification ceremony. Our driver Yande made this very special. And we all came away feeling for blessed. Will definitely do it again.
