“This trip is packed with visiting many temples, but as each of them is located in different scenery, it is very interesting. The traditional village, however, was full of tourists from Java. To be honest, I have never seen so many tourist in any other place in Bali during my January stay. However, the village is very lovely and definetely worth visiting.”

“Activities were FANTASTIC. First we visited the waterfall. The guide Ardana took us to another waterfall, Tegenungan Waterfall, because a road was closed ; the bridge had collapsed. Ardana was very patient, told a lot of information and took a lot of nice pictures of us. Sitting together at Omma Bali (SUPER view) for a drink so we could take the elevator and nog have to walk up all the stairs again. Then the rice fields and the swing!! GREAT. After that a delicious lunch was arranged by Ardana at a beautiful location. Finally to the Besakih Temple. Very nice but you get a temporary different guide there and he's…”

“Kadek was a fantastic and knowledgeable guide, took me to many places of interest and as I was the only person on the tour, there was some flexibility in the itinerary. It was a shame about the weather, but there were torrential downpours everyday while I was in Ubud so I had no choice. Definitely pick a day where the weather conditions are more favourable, especially to see the waterfall.”

“Kadek was amazing, and it was so worthy the price. It is expensive compared to others sidemen tours but holy Christ we did so much stuff!!! We went to rice fields, temple, three villages, at 14:30 we were already thinking it was worthy and we had even more nice experiences after.”
Climb Mount Agung from Besakih for a demanding sunrise trek, island views, volcanic slopes, and a private English-guided experience.
“Firstly it was really difficult - I’ve run ultramarathons and have climbed one other 3,000m+ peak and this was up there in difficulty. Part of the challenge was not having the right equipment - you need a big bag to carry 3L+ of water and huge snack/lunch boxes. You could really do with specialist climbing/hiking shoes thatre good with slippy volcanic rock. And cold weather and rain protection gear is a must. The tour should do more to let you know about this before the trip.”
