“Our guide Andrian was excellent and so knowledgeable about Bali and the places we visited! He did warn us beforehand that is would be a lot of driving - and it is good he did because the trip from Tanah Lot to Uluwatu was very long and I would not necessarily do both on the same day again. It would also have been nice to have more time at the beach and the Uluwatu temple. We left immediately after the dance at Uluwatu temple and got stuck in terrible traffic going back to our hotel - I would recommend staying in the Uluwatu area for dinner after to avoid traffic…”

We didn’t hike down to diamond or atuh beach because it was so hot and Puta took us to a different beach which needed no trekking and it was like paradise beach - insane. Couldn’t recommend the tour enough (especially with Puta if you’re lucky enough to get him)! I would suggest however you make sure you wear trainers and I was wearing sliders and it wasn’t…”

He took extra time to show us the best spots and pointed out marine life we would have easily missed on our own. His partner, the boatman, was equally wonderful — calm, skilled, and perfectly in sync with the guide. Together they made such a great team, and you could really feel how well they worked together to make the whole trip…”
