Last minute( last night) booked the Besakih Great Temple (mother temple) tour for today with eco bali. Within minutes of email confirmation, I got Whatsapp message from Ariana to coordinated and confirmed pickup location and time. He arrived 15 minutes earlier than the meeting time the next day and patiently waiting for me to finished my order of coffee and bakery then we off to the tour. He is very approachable and easy to talk to which makes the 3 hrs drive went by quick. He is also very accommodating. He make an Extra stop (out of the itinerary ) to a local plantation after found out I was looking for some local Bali coffee. Before we fight hectic traffic with heavy rain back to hotel. Over all, Ariana makes the tour was very relax, no rushing. It was very enjoyable tour. I highly recommended and will contact him again when I am visiting Bali again.
Great experience!

It was an amazing day tour! I and my husband visited some cultural places and Besakih temple. As it was the first time for us to go to these places, our tour guide - Mr Komang Yudana - explained us deeply about balinese history, geography and cultures. We could enjoy not only seeing places but also learning new aspects of bali!
Amazing

We had a great day with Wayan. We really wanted to customize our day and he was able to do that for us. Besakih Temple was amazing. A must see! We arrived before “the masses” got there and it was worth it.
Very good tour

This tour is enriched with the History and ancestry of Bali as well as breathtakingly beautiful places. Lunch was delicious and overlooked a landscape fit for the movies! The Mother Temple was our favorite in Bali. The waterfall was stunning as well. We toured with Budi whom, is a great diver as well as thoughtful, knowledgeable and kind. I would request him again! Thank you Budi!

Services of Budi was excellent. He was on time. No delay. Very informative. Knows details about the visited places, we visited. During our trip, there was heavy rain. He prepared umbrellas. - It was practical and made us move freely between sites and the car even it was raining.
Highly recommended
