Jay was an amazing guide!!!! He knew so much about Bali history and culture, was an excellent driver, and spoke great English. He was also so fun to hang out with and really made our tour extra fun! He takes the best pictures, and knows so many people it felt like we really were just chilling with a local. We loved all the spots he took us to, including a really gorgeous restaurant for lunch. We would 10/10 do this tour again, especially if it's with Jay!

Nyoman (male) was our guide and if I had an AMAZING experience is because of him, I can't thank him enough. He shared so many information about his culture, religion, food, Indonesian life, traditions and much more. He helped us organizing a lot of things and was always friendly, nice and funny. There are no words to express my gratitude for his service, his way of driving, his dedication to this job. I hope you can have him as a guide because he is so so good in what he's doing. Thank you Nyoman, you made us falling in love with Bali! ❣️

My guide Tawan really made this trip special. He was so fantastic at explaining all about the culture and gave me all the information about the destinations we went to see and why they were special. He went out of his way to make me feel comfortable as a solo traveler and we had a lot of fun. Thank you Tawan
