Review Body: Jana was our driver for the day. He had such great energy and was so accommodating. We started the day with a hike to the Sekumpul waterfall. Definitely bring water shoes or sandals because you’ll need them to cross the river to reach the waterfalls. Also, there are a lot of stairs so bring plenty of water for the trek back up. The waterfalls are amazing and beautiful so it was totally worth the climb. Then we dropped by Ulun Danu water temple and Jatiluwih Rice Terraces. The Rice Terrace alone was worth the trip. It was so beautiful. A great itinerary overall and totally recommend the trip.

Review Body: I had a great trip with Goodall Bali Driver yesterday. I visited the Sekumpul waterfall, Jatiluwih rice fields and Ulun Danu Water Temple. Each place was stunning and I created wonderful memories there that I will cherish forever. The driver was very knowledgeable and we had great chats 👍🏻 The only thing I can fault is that for $165 Australian dollars I did expect that entry to the three destinations would be included in the price. Bring with you money for entry and for food as it is not included.

Review Body: We had a wonderful trip with Komang, visiting all three sites. As a family, we truly enjoyed each stop, with Komang guiding us throughout, answering all our questions, and engaging in great discussions along the way. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a fantastic family day out.

Review Body: I had a great day with Gade (Goodday), the waterfall were amazing and definitely worth the many stairs, beautiful temple by the lake, nice lunch overlooking the rice terrace and walk around in the rice terraces. Gade shared a lot of information on the Balinese culture which was super interesting !!

Review Body: my partner found Gooday online before our recent trip to Bali and booked him to collect us from the airport and another day tour with him because he replied so promptly to her emails, I was hesitant in case we had committed to too much and there would have been better options out there, i was very much wrong. Gooday's english is brilliant and his car is well kept, when we arrived he had been waiting over 2 hours for us in the airport yet his smile hadn't faded. on our drive to Ubud he answered all our questions and we chatted about everything including Real Madrid. On the day of our Tour he was prompt and joined us around each site sharing his fantastic knowledge with us and even providing sarong's for the temples. Unfortunately we ran out of time and i didn't get to the monkey forest but as our day was so enjoyable we had booked him again to take us to Seminyak in a few days time. As he knew i was disappointed to miss out on the monkey forest he suggested he picked us up earlier and we visited the forest before our journey, where again he joined and guided us through even taking photos of us. finally we booked Gooday again after our trip to Gili T to take us to Nusa Dua and there he was waiting with a smile to meet us, even catching me out with a wee practical joke. people have said it before that Gooday becomes your friend and i have to 100% agree with this, he is 100% genuine and wants you have an amazing holiday and i felt at ease and trusted him every step of the way, he really contributed to making our holiday so great. i have already recommended Gooday to my parents who are going in 2018 and some friends who are planning trips.

Review Body: TripAdvisor doesn't show contact information anymore, the best way to contact Gooday is on WhatsApp (+62 819 9974 4315). As for our experience, I saw a recommendation for him on the TripAdvisor forums and wrote him about a suggested day trip itinerary. He replied promptly, offered a fair price and seemed very friendly from the get-go. Gooday picked me and my wife up very punctually the next day and suggested additional points on the way that were actually relevant to us. Due to temporary traditional reasons he couldn't join us in person into temples, but went out of his way to give us the same guiding information before arrival. We mostly wanted to explore spaces on our own anyways and he did a great job of reading our subtle hints when we preferred to be alone and when we liked him to join us. We ended up booking him for two more day trips and we enjoyed the (sometimes lengthy) drives between points at least as much as the destinations themselves - because Gooday turned out to be an amazing conversational partner, having a detailed, insightful and highly interesting response, delivered in nearly flawless English, to every single of our curious questions about Bali, Balinese culture, or even himself. He became the most personal connection we made in our 3 months in SE Asia. I cannot overstate the profoundness of feeling like you truly "get" a small aspect of a culture as wildly different as the Balinese one feels for us Europeans. This can only be achieved with someone as open-hearted and articulate as Gooday. We are very thankful to have found a new friend and wish him all the best for the future. Oh, and he is a good driver.

Review Body: We first met Gede in Ubud and his friendly manner and excellent English made him very easy to travel with. So when we transferred to Seminyak and were looking for a guide for a day’s touring he was an obvious ‘first choice’. He offered several different itineraries based on our suggestions and was so flexible and eager accommodate our wishes with great suggestions too. Nothing seemed too difficult. On our day tour he was punctual and again keen to ensure our every wish was met ... he didn’t push any stops or outlets ... for example he made several suggestions for lunch and let us choose. His driving was excellent - so calm and safe. As we drove we learned so much about Balinese life and culture ... and at every stop he shared with us his great knowledge and understanding of the sites we were visiting. So along with some stunning sites visited, and photographed, we came away with a true appreciation of the history and culture significance of the places we were visiting ... his information was never presented as a prepared ‘spiel’ but was given from our questions and discussion. His spoken English is EXCELLENT and it was great to really be able to converse with a guide in such an easy and informed way. And he has a good sense of humour and was able to appreciate ours ... My only regret is our day tour was right at the end of our 10 days in Bali ... wish we had discovered him earlier ... we would have certainly used his services more often. So ... do yourself a favour ... and book a GREAT day with Gooday Thanks Gede 😎👍

Review Body: So we made this bali plan soo instantly that we actually booked hotel after doing check-in from the airport. We had no clue what to do. Our friends who visited bali in the past sent us gede number. Our hotel transfer uncle we spoke with promised his brother in law to take us uluwati temple next day. Unfortunately the boy knew very littlw English and though the place was beautiful, the drive waa rather boring as he cud not give us infornation. We reached room and then contacted gede to take us for another day with our recommendations. He made an itinerary that covered all the items we listed. Unfortunately he was busy, as ours was a last minute request. Instead, he offered to send his friend Ngurah. Our only demand was a good speaker of English. Ngurah arrived bfre time at hotel, and we took off. Must say we learnt so much abt balinese culture and things, the drives were soo great. Excellent service, neatly maintained vehicle, with chilled water (specially needed in this drenching weather) and very good knowledge of places , he acckmodated all our requests. The places we listed were taken to , few eztra stops wer added, good communication and avery nice guy and the best of all, an amazing help in taking fotos of urs wer selfies wudnt work. Thank u gede for recommending Ngurah and he has been really patient and fun to b with.

Review Body: I have a wanderlust type of soul. Traveling for me is about having a holistic experience. I love to do extreme sports, but also understand how native people live their everyday life. Gooday is intuitive and able to meet your every need including arranging travel needs to the islands. My card didn't read at the watersports location and he readily paid my fee (which I promptly paid him back). Gooday is about making your trip what you want it to be. We would make tentative plans of what I wanted to do for the day, he was willing to change them whenever I asked. It was great! You can also play whatever music you like while driving, we often would sing together in the car which made the trip all the more memorable. Gooday was a wealth of knowledge when it came to temples, religions, cities, and he had an answer for everything. He is kind and honest. He will tell you when something doesn't work and will not over charge you. He loves people from all over the world, is attentive, and will sacrifice his day for you. He is so sweet and professional, could not have asked for a better person to be my friend and driver for my trip to Bali. Thank you Gooday for your wonderful hospitality and service. To anyone looking for an excellent driver/tour guide, you would be missing out if you do not pick this gentleman. BOOK NOW!

Review Body: My family and I were lucky to find Gooday offering his taxi service near the markets in Ubud. He made our time there amazing, as he went above and beyond with his taxi service. We did a day trip with him in Ubud, where he got us to the places we wanted to visit safely and gave us lots of imformation about villages, artwork, Bali life and more. He offered to take photos and videos whenever an opportunity arose, too, which was great. He was also able to recommend restaurants, cafés and spas, which were all fantastic! The following day we visited a primary/elementary school, where Gooday spoke to the teachers and allowed us to help teach English. I don't speak much Indonesian, so Gooday helped us by translating and guiding us. He has a very kind soul and encouraged the students to work hard and practice their English. He even recommended we give the kids a motivational speech and translated the whole thing for us. Gooday's English is excellent and his friendly attitude, fantastic work ethic, immense knowledge and kindness makes him the best driver we have ever had in Bali and Australia. I would definitely recommend him to anyone coming to Bali. Hope to see you again in the future Gede!

Review Body: Gooday was our driver for half of day in Bali. He took us to Tirta Empul where he guided us during our Purification Ritual, explained the history of it and every step of the ritual, he made sure to remind us to really emerge on the experience and keep in mind is beyond an Instagram picture, I will never forget him saying “just relax and pray in your own language, you’re praying to the Gods, they will understand”. Although the purpose of our visit was spiritual, he did nailed some great pics of my husband and I during the process! Lol after that we did Gunung Kawi and the Tegalalang Rice. He also recommended his favorite restaurant for Babi Guling which ended up being one of my favorite meals in Bali. His English is very good and he is not hesitant in sharing his vast knowledge about the Balinese culture, which I’ve learned to respect even more after our trip and time with Gooday! Thank you! I hope we see you again soon!!
