Best day out, would recommend to anyone - Our driver Sammy picked us up at our villa and customised the day in Ubud to our needs as a family with two kids one who is mobility impaired. The sacred monkey forest was incredible. The rice terraces so beautiful and interesting to learn about. We spent some time in the car driving from one location to the next but Sammy is so knowledgable he taught us so much about Bali, life in Bali, the culture any questions we had. This made it an amazing and interesting experience. We’ll book again with Sammy next time we are in Bali and will recommend to all our friends.

Incredible Experience; Would Absolutely Recommend. - My wife and I booked this for our honeymoon and we had the best time! Our guide, Sudi, was amazing! He was so knowledgeable and so kind. We genuinely enjoyed learning from him and felt like his explanations of the various attractions really added to our overall experience. It felt really easy to be around Sudi (which is great when you’re spending 8+ hours with someone). He went out of his way to make our honeymoon feel special and we will remember this day for years to come. Would absolutely recommend this experience to anyone. Well worth the money. If you book this, request Sudi as your guide!
