What a fantastic time we had over the 2 days in Nusa Penida. Our Nusa Penida local guide Ran was wonderful. He's a pro photographer and videographer, wealth of knowledge, and gave so many extra tips during our trip which we appreciated. We especially loved and appreciated hearing his stories about growing up and living in Nusa Penida, and him showing us his home town was really special. The seaweed tour was a real highlight! Our mainland driver to take us to Sanur was also love and helpful. Communication with these drivers and Justin who runs the company was prompt, efficient and clear. We felt well-cared for and can't fault the experience.

It was very well organised in a nice jungle setting and community run cooking school. Seeing the garden plot and produce growing was also informative. The whole team was friendly and helpful. It was a really good day and the food was good.

Booked: Cook with Bali's Freshest | Local Market & Organic Farm

The team was very accommodating, adapting our trip to depart from Nusa Lembogan and to get the best views despite season conditions and a huge number of tourists. The seaweed farm was both fun and relaxing, with welcoming and warm hosts. And while Diamond Beach was breathtaking but overly crowded, at the team's suggestion we had a second beach experience - at the Tembeling Beach Forest. This I'd recommend as a must see for anybody who likes to enjoy beautiful landscapes with less crowds and in a more intimate environment (and some fun scooter rides with the locals). Last but not least, we had Nyoman as a great driver who also offered a great deal of insight into the island's way of life

Our guide was excellent-very friendly and knowledgeable. We had a lovely breakfast, mid-way snack & three course lunch at the end! It was more coasting downhill than cycling with only a couple of very small hills. Suitable for most people. I felt very safe with a guide at the front and another at the back. There was a good balance of cycling and stops. Only issue is that some of the bike wheels were looking a bit bald and in need of replacement.

Booked: Sustainable Bali Bike Tour: Local Life and Scenic Views in Ubud

We had a lovely evening! Food was good, and despite the fact that we didn’t see that many fireflies, it was still magical. Highlight of the evening was visiting our host’s house and him giving us many interesting facts on the Balinese traditional way of living. We learned a ton and found it fascinating. That you very much !

Hello! I have some free days in Bali and there are several of your offered activities I’d love to partake in but not sure the best order to do them or if we could come up with a custom package? I’m traveling solo so I don’t mind joining other groups if already going but I’d love to do the following activities (in order of priority): pura mengening, mt agung sunrise trek, Bali Beans coffee tour, hot springs, and possibly the camping with mt batur and spiritual healer. I’ll be coming from Krambitan Sept 5 and need to be at the airport Sept 12. I also plan to spend 2-3 days in Amed and 2-3 days in Ubud. What do you think my best options would be?
