- Taman Ayun Temple - After being picked up from the hotel, the first stop is Taman Ayun Temple, also known as the Royal Family Temple. Situated in Mengwi Village, approximately 18km north of Denpasar, this temple was constructed in the 17th century (1632 - 1634) by the first king, Tjokorda Sakti Blambangan. It is a stunning temple surrounded by its own moat. The temple serves as a place to pray to the gods in their various manifestations, particularly Lord Vishnu. It is also a site for worshipping the ancestors of the royal family.
- Sangeh Monkey Forest - Located in the northern part of Sangeh village, Badung regency, Sangeh Monkey Forest was established during the 17th century, the golden era of the Mengwi Kingdom. I Gusti Ketut Karangasem, the son of the King of Mengwi, founded a temple in the midst of a nutmeg tree forest, which he used for meditation. This temple later became known as Bukit Sari Temple. The forest, spanning 10 hectares, is a sacred area protected by the Sangeh customary village. Home to over 600 friendly monkeys, a guide will be on hand to assist with taking photos, feeding the monkeys, and capturing selfies with them.
- Tanah Lot Temple - Meaning “Land in the Sea,” Tanah Lot Temple is located in Tabanan, about 20 km northwest of Denpasar. The temple is perched on a large offshore rock, continuously shaped by the ocean tide over the years. Built in the 16th century by Dang Hyang Nirartha, the temple is dedicated to worshipping the Balinese sea gods, with the main deity being Dewa Baruna or Bhatara Segara. This location is renowned for its breathtaking sunset views, and it is recommended to arrive around 5 pm to explore the garden and temple before securing the best spot to watch the sunset.

This was more than just transportation—it was a personalized, thoughtful experience that truly elevated our trip. - We had an amazing experience during our tour vacation in Bali, and a big part of that was thanks to our incredible driver and guide. From the moment we were picked up, everything was smooth, stress-free, and enjoyable. Our driver was not only punctual and professional but also warm, friendly, and extremely knowledgeable about the island.
He shared fascinating insights about Balinese culture, took us to stunning scenic spots and hidden local treasures we would have never found on our own, and was always flexible with our schedule and preferences. His driving was safe and comfortable, and we always felt well cared for throughout the journey.
This was more than just transportation—it was a personalized, thoughtful experience that truly elevated our trip. We highly recommend him to anyone visiting Bali. Thank you for making our vacation so memorable!

Bali Honeymoon - Bali is a jewel to visit. Ketut provided the best way to see all the sites we wanted, with security and peace of mind during our honeymoon. Nothing was too difficult or too out of the way. Whilst providing safe personal transportation, he was all too happy to converse about his culture, customs and the natural surroundings. Ketut goes out of his way to make you feel like family.

Friends X Ubud - On our last day in Ubud, we had a family tour and the Monkey Forest is one of the places we visited. here, you will have a first-hand experience of interacting and touching monkeys that freely roam around the place. Kuya Ketut made sure it will be fun, safe and no harm will happen to the tourists and the monkeys. he gave us lots of stories about the place and why are the monkeys so important. We had a child in our group and Kuya Ketut made sure she'll have fun, too. Very recommendable and will definitely visit this place again with Kuya Ketut! See you soon!!!!

Monkey Forest - The Monkey Forest was one of the places we went to on our second tour with Ketut. Like before, we just told him what kinds of places we wanted to visit, amd he was the one who suggested the specific destinations and planned the schedule for us. He knew how to deal with the monkeys and gave us advice on how to approach them. It was a lot of fun for us, especially because we had a child with us who really wanted to see the monkeys.

Favorite Bali Tour - We had the best experience on this tour. I cannot sing enough praises to our tour guide, Mr. Ketut. He is a wealth of knowledge, and we learned so much about Balinese culture on this tour. We had such a great time that we asked for a second tour the next day.

Tanah Lot a Beauty - Tanah lot was highlight. Our Driver Guide Kapri was Awesome . The Monkey Forest quieter than other touristy ones which we liked. We enjoy some parts of drive Thorough Paddy Fields. Visited the Royal Gardens as well. The traffic is very heavy so you need patience.

Poor experience from the tour operator, but the actual tour itself is great - The actual tour itself was amazing, but this tour operator left me in the lurch big time!
A few hours after I booked the tour, the driver reached out to me via WhatsApp to let me know that he was feeling unwell and that he was trying to find another driver for me. In the morning the day of the tour, he messaged me to say that he couldn’t find a driver and that he’d organise a cash refund for me at my hotel. I asked him multiple times to process the refund through TripAdvisor, but he each time he said that he wasn’t able to do so. I found it quite odd and somewhat suspicious that he wasn’t able to process a refund back to my card via TripAdvisor.
In the end, I did some creative thinking and provided some phone numbers for drivers in Bali that I knew, as I still wanted to go on the tour and didn’t want to accept a cash refund. I managed to secure a driver, and the operator transferred the money to the new driver via bank transfer. The new driver did the exact itinerary.
Had an amazing time on the tour with the new driver. Got to see some pretty sights and get close with the monkeys.
Overall, the issues with the driver/tour operator had me stressed and almost ruined things for me, but I’m glad that I had a great time on the tour.
