Great insightful experience and fair prices - If you are looking for a personal and professional Balinese guide and driver, with excellent english, extensive knowledge of culture and history, punctual, genuinely friendly and fairly priced - look no further than Wayan. We had several trips with other drivers/guides and would absolutely recommend him to all my friends.

Wonderful , warm, wise Wayan - We contacted Wayan before our trip for airport transfers, a full day Ubud tour and a evening trip to Uluwatu and Rock Bar. By the end of day one we felt like we had known Wayan all our lives! He is super punctual, extremely polite and oh so knowledgeable about local Bali history , traditions and culture . We learned about his life on the village and admired his love for his people. My husband is the curious type and must have asked him hundreds of questions, each of the replies was fascinating! I HIGHLY recommend this tour and would encourage you to work with Wayan to customize it based on your interests and preferences.

Best guide in Bali - We booked a three days tour with Wayan few mounths before living for Bali. We received a prompt respond and he was really nice and kind. He suggests us some daily tours and he help us to choose the best solution according to our interests. He gaves us detailed informations and he was very honest about tour organization because he told us what was really possibile to do and what was not, so he didn't give us false expectactions. The price for the tours has been fixed when we confirmed our booking and it remained the same. The price was very convenient because Wayan is an expert guide (he explained us a lot of interesting detailes of tradition and culture), a very good driver (his car was absolutely cleaned, with air conditioning), he is very kind and nice (he gives us also two cold water bottles in a day to refresh and have a rest). During the visit in the temples he gives us some sarong that he bring for us so we skipped long ques to have it and enter. Also during the trip he is very friendly. He speaks english very well and it is important to understand a lot of details. He was always on time, completely respecting our schedule. He founds also some very good, cheep and nice restaurants to have lunch all together, always asking us when we prefer have a rest according to our needs. Our tour was very beautiful and interesting, we visited incredibile places and it was a pleasure met Wayane in our adventure in Bali. Wayan is a grate person and you'll appreciate him for sure. Bali isn't the same without a very professional guide as Wayane. We highly raccomand Amansuka Tour to a true Balinesian experience.

Awesome tour - great for the soul - Our half day Ubud tour was fascinating and inspirational, thanks mainly to our brilliant guide. After a pick up from the hotel, first up were stunning rice fields around 30 minutes north of Ubud. Our guide took us to some great locations, away from the other tourists and the multiple swings which are threatening to detract from the stunning beauty of the place. Next up was the lovely and quiet 600 year old Gunung Kawi temple, fantastic in its own right but added to by our guide’s insights into the temple and also the Balinese way of life in general. Our third trip was the large Tirta Empul temple, where tourists and locals alike go to cleanse their souls. Again, the 1,000 year old temple was spectacular in its own right but improved by our guide’s wise and interesting commentary. The final stop was the Tegenungan Waterfall - a stunning drive and impressively powerful waterfall, spoilt slightly by the incursion of a large mammal swing and wicker heart for the insta crowd. Just a brilliant tour hours for an incredibly reasonable price. Full day tours are also available. A definite must in Ubud...

Bali in a Rush - A lot done in just three days in Bali. And we were more than thankful for the service provided. Wayan, besides being reliable and truthful, was excellent in adjusting to our preferences and needs. Very knowledgeable person. Have a conversation with him and you will learn to appreciate the little things in life. Thanks for everything Wayan...

Great day to start our trip! - If you are looking for a private driver or a guide to show you around Bali, then Wayan is your man! When we arrived in Bali, Wayan was there to greet us at the airport and take us straight to our hotel. He was so friendly and made us feel at home straight away. During our drive, Wayan didn't waste any time to educate us about Bali and Balinese people - it was SO interesting to hear about their traditions and special facts. Wayan is very knowledgeable and speaks English. Following this we booked a full tour day the next day, where Wayan planned a whole trip to all the special sites in Ubud. We let him pick the destinations, told him a few things we must see and our day was great. The car was super comfortable, has air con (most important!) and he provides you with water bottles throughout. A big thank you to Wayan for such a lovely experience, it was a highlight of our stay in Bali. Samantha

BEST BALI TOUR GUIDE - If you are looking for an authentic Balinese experience, Amansuka is the tour group to book with. Wayan speaks English, is punctual, courteous, friendly and very willing to accommodate your day tour according to your preferences. His vehicle is clean and comfortable and we enjoyed our enroute chats about Balinese culture and spirituality. An overall excellent experience and we would definitely book with him again.

Private driver for 4 days - This was amazing! We had wayan as our driver (there are two of them as brothers). He was punctual even earlier and so professional. He knew a lot of the culture and was flexible with us changing our plans. He was available last minute (I contacted him the day before) he picked us up in uluwatu one of the days and the other days from ubud. He was amazing! I HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend. At one of the temples, my phone fell in the koi pond and he didn’t even hesitate and jumped right now and grabbed it. Couldn’t even believe how nice he was! Also don’t even hesitate and get a driver and get wayan!!
