From the tranquillity of the Gate of Heaven, idyllicness of Water Palace and the excellent service and views of Sleeping Gajah - its a experience you cant miss!! My tour guide/ semi professional personal photographer Agung was brilliant and couldn't do it enough! He kept the whole day moving as well and being patient and thoughtful. Thanks you so much to him and the tour operator for putting this on!!

5.00I had a great experience on the East Bali Tour and would certainly recommend it. Prayoga was a wonderful driver and guide. I had such a great tour with him! He answered all my questions, gave me history and cultural background, and let me manage my time/ set my own pace. All fees were included in the initial price and in total we were gone from 4am to 2pm. Pick up and drop off was from my hotel and communication with the tour operator and my driver was easy through WhatsApp or iMessage.
Fantastic day trip

5.00The tour and our guide Eka were fantastic! We had a very early start but it was ideal to beat the crowds at all the sites. Eka was telling us how people sometimes wait up to 3 hours for a picture at the heavens gate, but we only waited about 40 minutes. The lunch and relaxing at sleeping Gajah were also very nice
Great tour!

5.00We had a great tour with Gusti as our guide. We were picked up at the hotel at 4 a.m. which felt a bit too early but since the traffic was already starting to get busy it was nice to get going. At the Gate of Heaven, the queue for the "photo slot" was quite short, we managed to get nr. 20. Guess this was thanks to being a bit off season and also the early start. Gusti had a lot of information to share during our tour and answered all our questions. Overall a very good experience and I recommend Gusti, not just a great guide but also the best driver we've had on Bali so far.
Excellent

5.00This was our first time in Bali, and Madebali took care of us in a way that’s truly hard to describe. From the moment we met him, he was punctual, attentive, and dedicated to making sure we enjoyed every moment. He showed us the best of Bali—its landscapes, hidden gems, and vibrant local spots—while always adjusting the plans to match our needs and interests. Madebali was incredible: deeply knowledgeable, warm, and genuinely connected with us throughout the journey. As we traveled around the island, he introduced us to delicious local dishes and shared meaningful stories about Bali’s culture, history, and the remarkable resilience of its people. Learning how the community continues to grow and adapt to support tourism made the experience even more special. This wasn’t just a tour—Madebali made it feel like exploring Bali with a friend. Highly recommended to anyone visiting this beautiful island!

5.00We had a wonderful tour to east Bali. Gusti was our guide and he did a great job. The car was comfortable and the ride felt safe. The itinerary was short but sweet and left a lot of room for us to set the pace ourself. The lunch restaurant was beautiful, relaxing and served great food. All in all really good value for money!
Wonderful Experience
