Everything went smoothly and I felt taken care of. The drivers and guides were excellent and spoke English well. If you are looking for an authentic experience look no further. (If you just want the instagram pictures of the most famous spots you're missing out.) But again, just know what kind of experience you're looking for. Thanks again for a great trip!

Today we did a 4-hour bike tour through a village. I can honestly say that it was incredible to see exactly how the Bali Villagers live. I have been to Bali over 50 times and have also owned businesses here. I learnt a lot today and it was great to see Balinese Authenticity on display, unchanged by Tourism, and to take the time to appreciate it. The ride was 95% down hill, the views were amazing and community spirit was welcoming.
Our guide was a young man named Dewi and he was knowledgeable and friendly. His communication was excellent and he was extremely caring and considerate to both our mature age and lack of fitness - and accommodated us accordingly. (Not to mention neither of us had ridden a bike for over 35 years!).
Nothing was too much trouble, when we needed to slow down, walk the bike or have a rest and even when we fell off.
Ultimately I would highly recommend this activity. The price included Hotel pick up and drop off, Breakfast, morning tea and lunch and the Safety and comfort of guests is their priority.
A truly unique experience and a thoroughly enjoyable day!
I would definitely encourage others to do this trip to experience the serenity and to support the local village.
10/10!!!

The best tour I have ever done.
In short the experience is a wholesome and grounding experience due to the beauty of the location and the passion of the people.
Seeing the fire flies in their natural habitat is the added sprinkling of magic on top.
The cooking class was lots of fun. You pick the vegetables from their land and learn how to cook the dinner. I give the food a 10/10! So fresh and flavoursome!
I am in absolute awe of this conservation and the people that run it. Being in the presence of such kind and passionate people is so inspiring.
Tips:
-I wore long pants and covered shoes and felt protected from the bugs. They also supply naturally made insect spray, that smells amazing!
-I travelled from Seminyak which was a long drive. It would be better to be closer to Ubud. They do book you a lovely transfer if you need it. At an extra cost.
I highly recommend booking this magical experience.
I cannot wait to bring my kids next time I visit Bali!

Highly enjoyable! I would go back at least twice more!
Challenging at some spots but not physically demanding and mostly manageable even for my 9yo kid.
We saw a typical Balinese house and their daily lives. The breakfast and snack stops were clean and nice. Extremely charming photo spots!

My only comment is that the guest should know if they'll be the only one in the trip. Like I was expecting to connect with other people and enjoy this activity with them, but that didn't happen. I was alone with my guide, who was great though. :)

Communication via email and WhatsApp is prompt. Pickup on time. Safe driver. Great guide Gede and his 2nd Zona that made sure our bikes were fitted and worked. Kept our trip fun, safe and informative. Glad we booked this trip with them

An absolutely incredible experience—Wayan and his team have curated a fascinating and highly educational tour of their firefly conservatory.
We learned about the role of fireflies as indicators of healthy ecosystems and their decline in numbers due to habitat degradation from man-made influences—litter, pesticides and light pollution to name a few.
The life-cycle of fireflies was explained in great detail in their specialised lab, with examples shown in their ongoing development of captive breeding methods.
While waiting for sundown we were treated to a delicious dinner of local Balinese dishes by the team—some of the best food I've had on the island.
In the evening we went out to the local rice fields to see the fireflies in action—my first time seeing them in over 20 years. It was a truly magical experience, and for me in particular it evoked a wonderful sense of nostalgia.
I would recommend this trip if you enjoy the enchanting spectacle of watching fireflies, have an interested in insect biology/conservation and have an appetite for delicious local cuisine (who doesn't?)

We really enjoyed our bike tour with Amin. It was wonderful to get out into the countryside and in nature and see a different side to Bali. Amin was very friendly and eager to share his culture and engage in conversation with us. It was a fun way to connect with locals as well. For us, the guide made the tour the best it could be because of his wonderful and engaging stories about his culture. He answered so many questions without hesitation and with kindness and a smile. Considering this tour includes transfer service, breakfast and lunch, it is a very good value. It was a very enjoyable day!
