A Fulfilling Ubud Tour

5.00Tegeg was my guide for the day and he was extremely kind and taught me so much about Balinese culture during this tour. This was my first solo trip and I enjoyed visiting the local artisans, the coffee plantation, seeing ancient architecture, and the popular tourist sites! I got to take my time at every location and never felt rushed even though we visited so many locations. I love all the souvenirs I was able to get from the local artisans as well. Thank you!
A Magical Day in Ubud with Gede

5.00I had an incredible day exploring Ubud with Gede and couldn’t recommend him more highly. He was friendly, funny, and genuinely engaging, which made the whole experience relaxed and enjoyable from start to finish. What really stood out was his depth of knowledge—he shared fascinating insights into the history of Ubud and Hindu theology in a way that was easy to understand and added real meaning to each place we visited. The day flowed very smoothly, with a perfect balance between seeing a lot and still having plenty of time to soak in the atmosphere at each stop. My favourite was the Monkey Forest, which felt truly magical, but every location we visited had something unique and special. Gede also went above and beyond by helping me capture some fantastic photos and videos—he clearly knows all the best angles and spots. It was also obvious how well connected and respected he is locally—he seemed to know many people along the way, and it added an extra layer of authenticity to the experience. Overall, Gede is a knowledgeable, reliable, and genuinely warm guide who takes pride in creating a memorable experience. I would highly recommend him to anyone visiting Ubud.
What a fun day in Ubud

5.00Thank you so much to Aris for a wonderful day in Ubud! It was more fun than I expected and good value for the price. Our favorite spot was the waterfall, where we cooled off and had ice cream and dreamed of a longer vacation in Bali. Our guide Aris was fun, friendly and knowledgeable about old history as well as newer local spots. He had umbrellas ready for a short spell of rain and was flexible when we got hungry for lunch and needed skin cream for sunburn. The driving times between sites were maybe less than I expected from our hotel in central Ubud compared to other traffic we experienced in Bali. Even more, I booked this tour less than 24 hours ahead and got confirmation via WhatsApp in less than an hour. HIGHLY recommend. Advice- tell your tour guide if you do not want to walk up and down stairs or slopes. There are small hills and cliffs at many Bali tourist sites.

5.00We had an awesome experience visiting Ubud with our guide Darma! We experienced the Balinese culture while visiting temples, coffee plantations, monkey forests and waterfalls. Our guide kept us well informed during the whole trip, and taught us about life on Bali. Our guide was also a very safe driver. I strongly recommend this activity for both families and solo travelers. My wife and I + my two daughters had a great time!

5.00Juli was a great guide for the day tour to Ubud. He had good driving and a comfortable car. He was friendly and we went to every spot on the tour that was mentioned. He gave us however much time we needed at each spot and we never felt rushed. We took his restaurant recommendation in Ubud named Tropical and the food was excellent. Great day in Ubud! Lots to see and do and was a jam packed day!

5.00We had a wonderful time with our guide Chris, who showed us around and told us all he knew (which was a lot) about monkeys, riceterrasses, shops, waterfalls, temples and a lot more about Ubud, Bali and the Balinese culture and history. Definitely an entertaining and educational trip. Definitely something and someone we advice to join!

Gede the Great guide

5.00We had an amazing experience with our guide, Gede! He took us to the Monkey Forest, rice terraces, and a beautiful waterfall, and truly made the whole day unforgettable. Traveling with two babies can be challenging, but Gede was incredibly helpful, patient, and attentive, which made everything so much more enjoyable for our family. He’s very knowledgeable and took the time to explain each new experience in a way that was easy to understand and appreciate. On top of that, he navigated the busy streets with ease, always making us feel safe and comfortable. He also introduced us to some great local shopping spots and food that we would have never found on our own. Highly recommend Gede to anyone visiting Bali—he genuinely goes above and beyond!
