Informative and engaging! - I had a wonderful time with the staff from Ancient Tours. They were extremely accommodating and informative. I saw many highlights and was given a rich understanding of the culture in Bali. I would definitely recommend going with Ancient tours when you visit Bali next, you can’t go wrong!!!! Jodie 🤗

Best guide in Bali!!!! - We got to know Newman via the hotel we stayed at where he works the shuttle. During one of the drives to Ubud we found out that he is a local guide and driver. Given how good of a driver and what a friendly and funny person he was we jumped at the opportunity to explore Bali with him. During our stay of 10 days we spend most days with Newman and he showed us the entire Bali experience. From the many famous temples and waterfalls to more local hidden gems. He also explained the Balinese culture, took us to try the Balinese food, is a great listener and gave us insight in the Hindoism culture. Definetly an amazing addition to our trip 10/10 would recommend this guide. You don’t only get a very experienced driver and guide, you get a friend to explore Bali with - Bonnie and Arne (can’t wait to see you again!!!!).

Beautiful day exploring Bali! - We had the very best time learning about Balinese culture and spending the day with Nyoman. We were picked up in a very comfortable private car and made many stops along the tour, seeing a Balinese compound and art school, the rice terraces, tirta empul, a beautiful waterfall and more. The day was filled with culture. We left with a deeper understanding of the beautiful Balinese people and landscape. Highly recommend!

Brilliant insight into Bali heritage and culture - Nyoman was a brilliant host for our tour from Ubud, felt like we really got some insight into Bali heritage and culture. Nyoman flexed our itinerary to suit our family, including a visit to a local family house, village art school, beautiful holy water Temple, waterfalls, coffee plantation, mount Batur…and more ! Great English and of course local knowledge - brilliant memories for us - thank you ⭐️

Very Professional, Local Tour, Great Itinerary, Awesome Guidep - Nyoman was an excellent tour guide. Having been born and raised in Bali, he has great English from his years of conducting tours, in addition to a great deep understanding of the region, and history of each individual site - didn’t see him use google maps a single time as he navigated the roads seamlessly, he’s an excellent driver. At the end of the tour I asked if we could go to one additional temple that wasn’t on the itinerary, he was very amenable and eager to provide the best experience possible. Also took me to a killer spot for lunch outside the itinerary! Overall hardworking guy, great itinerary, very professional, and no complaints.
