Review of Nusa Penida’s private-boat day trip, with four snorkel stops, manta rays, lunch, Kelingking Cliff, and practical tips.
“Unfortunately this trip was not great. Firstly, the positives - nice boat, lots of cold water and fruit, good equipment provided and the office had showers and toilets at the end for our use. The staff were kind and tried to assist. They also took photos on a gopro for us and we saw turtles and manta rays. Our boat had 15 people on it which might just have been OK if we didn't have big bags and needed to put on snorkelling equipment and flippers and move around in them. The main issue was that the crew didn't communicate how long anything would be - the boat rides, the…”

Customize a 10-hour Bali day with a private driver, air-conditioned car, and flexible stops across Ubud, south Bali, and beyond.
“The driver was late and mentioned to his employer that he couldn't find the place. Once he arrived 15 minutes late and we enquired if he really couldn't find the place he mentioned that is was difficult to park there. All other drivers who dropped and pickup us up never had an issue finding our parking. Even after communicating the place with the booker the driver didn't know where exactly we were going and never stopped to ask. We had to tell him where and he kept insisting that our plan was not feasible in a very condescending tone. He further had the never to tell us that we were…”

Climb Mount Batur by flashlight, watch the sunrise from an active volcano, eat breakfast above Lake Batur, and visit a Balinese coffee farm.
“The hike up to Mt. Batur for sunrise was like nothing we had experienced before! Flashlight in hand, the hike was slightly challenging due to the sand/rocky terrain but totally worth it. Our local guide kept good company. Unfortunately, we had a frustrating start to the experience. We communicated with the company prior to confirm our pickup time and location (2:30 AM in Ubud). As 2:45 AM rolled around, we continued to call and text the company for an update. We had seen a prior (negative) review that this happened to someone else, without ever showing. The company eventually called a Gojek car that brought us to the start. It…”

Build your own Bali day tour with a private driver, hotel pickup, onboard WiFi, and stops from Uluwatu to Ubud or East Bali.
“Our private driver met us at the hotel on time. He is very friendly and speaks good English. We went to the northern part of Bali and visited the water temple & water fall. We didn’t finish the 9 hours trip as planned due to the heavy afternoon rain. But the driver did spent good part of the day with us. It’s a long drive and we did enjoy the scenic drive.”
