5.00Wayan was an excellent guide and made our trip to Mount Agung a reallt enjoyable experience. He was friendly, knowledgeable, and made us feel comfortable throughout the day. One thing that really stood out was how happy he was to help take photos and videos for us along the way. He knew the best spots for viewpoints and was always willing to help capture the experience, which we really appreciated. His positive attitude, local knowledge, and willingness to go the extra mile made the tour even more enjoyable. I would highly recommend Wayan to anyone visiting Bali and looking for a memorable experience around Mount Agung.
Highly recommended driver Wayan

5.00We took a journey to Mt Agung with the ever reliable Wayan Suama, who is our go to driver for any trip we take around Bali. He took us to a more unknown place to watch the sunset over Mt Agung. Epic views, great photos which were choreographed by the expert Wayan, who is also a seasoned driver and great company on the voyage. I highly recommend Wayan for any trip and transport, a very friendly fellow and excellent company. Tell him Dean sent you 😊

5.00Take the earliest tour (4am pick up) to avoid the long queues of people waiting for their turn for photos at the Gates of Heaven. Local photographer makes special mirror effect on the photo. Ethereal!!! If you have a good day you might have sunrise photos. Water Palace was also a lot of fun feeding the colorful fishes and having photos taken. Lunch at the restaurant overlooking the Sleeping Gangga: yummy food and great views. Also fun swimming in the infinity pool.

5.00It was our 2nd private tour led by Nyoman J. He convinced us to start at 4 am to avoid long queues at the Gates of Heaven in Lempuyang temple . Wise advice!!. The 2 hr drive from Nusa Dua was smooth and the number of people on queue was not too much. Lots of good locations for picture taking-especially with the mirror effect. Mr J then took us to the water palace and took wonderful photos. What a beautiful place!!! Last place was a delicious Balinese lunch at Wapa di ume sidemen overlooking the sleeping ganga. Though we had torrential rain by that time, the infinity pool beckoned and refreshed us. Mr Nyomi J is a consummate guide with excellent communication skills, knowledgeable about the country and the places we visited, a calm , safety conscious and patient driver with stamina for a long day of driving and leading the tour. And he has incredible photography skills!
Very awesome experience in seeing the temple, feeding the koi fishes, beautiful coffee plantation and wonderful lunch .

5.00Our guide Mr J was on time in picking us up in the hotel at 4am. It’s almost a 2 hour ride and upon reaching the place , we will lead to a place where we have a good photo shoot of the mountain and the two swing was beautiful before heading to the temple. From the temple , while waiting for our turn to have the picture on the gate of heaven, we were treated with hot tea , some rice cakes and banana fritters for breakfast, then after the temple we went to a very nice coffee, tea farm , we were treated with samples of different coffees and teas, then we went to the hotel with very nice swimming pool to have our lunch and the food were good. We even have the chance to swim and refresh ourselves even when it was raining. Going back to the hotel, the traffic caught us and Mr Jay have been given us the rice fields and people work ethics at Bali. So informative.
