Amazing trip in Ubud! Highly recommended with Made Sutama! - Highly recommended trip and guide, Made Sutama! Made was outstanding, punctual, exceptionally friendly, and so knowledgeable, he went above and beyond to make the day enjoyable, meaningful, and informative. Made also ensured that we did not feel rushed and moved on from each stop only when we were ready. He kindly helped communicate my dietary restrictions to the lunch restaurant, which meant I could enjoy the day without worry. Throughout the trip, he offered to take photos of us so we had great memories captured. Every stop on the tour was a highlight. We visited the Mengening Temple which was beautiful and so peaceful. Loved seeing so many coy fish and some turtles! The visit to the Shaman’s house in Batuan was so unique. The healing ritual with traditional massage techniques was a great insight into the culture. We went to the art village where we watched silver jewellery being created, saw intricate paintings, and the process for handmade batik textiles. We were happy to support local businesses by purchasing some beautiful items perfect for souvenirs. Lunch had beautiful scenery and the food was delicious. Even with dietary limitations (no gluten, onion, or garlic), the restaurant delivered a great meal. The purification ceremony was an absolute standout moment taking part in the ritual and being in such beautiful scenery. We visited the coffee plantation and the tasting of coffee and tea was great. We bought some to take home. We finished at the Tegallalang rice terraces, and the landscape was just stunning. There were so many of optional activities like the swings and zip lines. Although we couldn’t stay long due to our dinner reservation, we still managed to enjoy the views. In short, this tour felt we really to experience Balinese culture, and we couldn’t have asked for a better guide than Made. It was the perfect day so thank you, Made, for making it so special!

Ubud tour with De Putro :) - Had a great day trip around Ubud with De Putro! He was super friendly, easy to talk to, and really made the day enjoyable. He shared a lot about the local culture without it ever feeling too much, and he kept the vibe relaxed and fun throughout. Everything ran smoothly and he was flexible with the plan, which made the whole experience feel personal and not rushed at all. We had some good laughs along the way too. I’d definitely book with him again next time I’m in Bali – it was a lovely day and he made it even better. Thanks, De Putro!
