Must do experience! For an extra 350,000 IDR per person you can get a professional photo taker to walk with you for hours taking photos. You get this person when you are up at the temple. The pictures came out fabulous and the snorkeling was great. The only drawback was the long drive.

We had a great time visiting the Lempuyang Temple (Heaven's Gate) and snorkelling at the Blue Lagoon. Our driver, Dian, was punctual, patient, a great driver and welcomed all our questions :) It was lovely to travel around with him! The temple was beautiful with amazing views. The snorkelling visibility on our day was great and we could see lots of coral and fish. Lunch was simple but delicious. I would recommend the trip!
We had a great experience on our tour in Bali, including the visit to Blue Lagoon. Our guide was friendly, helpful, and professional, making sure everything ran smoothly throughout the day. He was knowledgeable about the places we visited and always available to assist us. It was a well-organized and enjoyable experience, and we would definitely recommend it. Thank you Vitho
I absolutely loved the snorkeling experience, and the temple was stunning—wow! This tour was amazing and I would truly recommend it to everyone.
The temple is impressive but a long drive. Be prepared to wait to take your photos, the walk up to the temple is steep. Menstruating women cannot visit the temple.
Driver was prompt and professional and extremely helpful throughout the day. Both stops were extremely fun Great Overall
We had a great tour! The snorkeling was beautiful with lots of colorful fish to see, and it was definitely a highlight of the day. The temple was also amazing — though be prepared to wait in a long line if you want that iconic photo. (2 to 3 hours) Just a heads-up: the tour price does not include the temple entry ticket or the shuttle bus, so make sure to bring extra cash for those. Overall, a really enjoyable experience!
We had a fabulous time snorkelling in the Blue Lagoon and Lagoon Amuk bay. We were looked after very well by our 2 boat crew. Our driver Kariasa made the trip very relaxing and informative. He was extremely helpful. We decided not to go to the Temple as we were very tired.
The Lempuyang temple was beautiful with a great view of Mt Batur in the distance. The blue lagoon snorkelling was worth the trip alone as there were so many vibrant views to see in the surrounding waters. Shoutout to Dian who was a great guide for the day!
Dian provided a great experience to and at the Gate of Heaven and snorkeling at Blue Lagoon. He was friendly and patient. He let me sleep during the long drive to and from locations. He made sure I had water. He is an excellent driver, speedy & safe.
The temple visit was the highlight of the day, with a drive full of S Bend corners to take you higher. You can only drive so far to the temple carpark, then small free minibuses drive you to the top. The ancient Temple is amazing. You can queue for the famous Instagram photo standing within the magnificent gates to the heavens. My driver Ketood was punctual, knowledgeable and a good driver
What an incredible day! We were so lucky to have Ketoot be our guide and be so wonderful, friendly and funny! The snorkelling in Blue Lagoon was beautiful for a first timer! And the trek around and into the temple was incredible, but what made this an amazing day was Ketoot's knowledge and friendliness! Thank you!
Dian is why we give this trip 5 stars. The excursions are a good combo and uncommon to find across other tours online; most that included the gates of heaven also include Ubud, so glad we could find this as a unique trip. The snorkeling in the blue lagoon was amazing - 2 turtles, sea snake, eel, and hundreds/thousands of reef fish. The guides there Ani & Nova were very kind. Andre runs the show and lunch was very tasty. The temple is something you should be considerate about. It’s sadly saturated by the worst part of tourism. We booked the 5am departure from Nusa Dua, arrived at the temple 7:10am and received queue number 168. When we walked to the top of the temple they were on photo 44. We didn’t take our photos until 12:15pm (5hrs wait). If you consider this tour: 1) prepare to wait 3-6 hours for your 3-min duration photos at the temple; 2) take the earliest departure time - we wish we left at 4am!!! Go early! 3) the photo reflection is a mirror next to the phone (not a body of water) in case you didn’t know. Fortunately we spent the day with an amazing guide; Dian was friendly & a good driver. He’s in no way a pushy sales rep like some tours are. He even took us to grab some kopi luwak coffee! Great day.
We had an excellent experience yesterday with our driver Denny. It was quite a long drive from Nusa Dua so we decided to snorkel first then have lunch before heading to the Lempuyang Temple. It was my children’s first time snorkelling and they saw plenty of colourful fish. The temple Gate of Heaven required a long wait to get a photo in front of the gate but the photos were amazing! The whole area is beautiful and so many photo opportunities. Denny got us home through the traffic safely in his modern 7 seater.
We had a great day at the Lempuyang temple with our guide Dian. He showed us where to get the best photos and avoid the crowds. Our snorkeling tour was also well organized and Dian got us there safely and guided us through the queues. We would highly recommend this company.
A great experience. Ketut, the tour guide, was amazing from the beginning. We started traveling to Lempuyang Temple which is around 2.5 hrs from Seminyak, so prepare to wake up extra early and be patient in case you want 'the photo'. Then we went for snorkeling to Blue lagoon and another location close to it. Great views and great staff at that place.
We had a wonderful time on our trip to Lempuyang Temple and Blue Lagoon snorkeling. Our driver Dikaaa was fantastic! He is a great driver and told us so much about Bali and the areas we visited. I would highly recommend this trip and requesting Dikaaa as your driver!
A had an amazing snorkling trip with mij great driver Vintho. He was a relaxed driver . I swing with a turtle. The hebben gate was magic
We had Vitho and his driving was excellent. We were very happy with the snorkeling, the equipment was excellent and the snorkeling guide knowledgeable. The lunch was nice local food. Our only wish was we would have liked more information about the temple.
Very good expérience, very good people who take care of us. Long ride in a car tho, but worth the Wait. Very beautiful place to go.
Our driver was great -he provided our group with a comfortable air conditioned ride plus water bottles and pointed out local landmarks to make the trip interesting. He ensured we had great photos at our stops. He was a safe driver and very polite and knowledgeable.
Lempuyang Temple was amazing - incredible construction on top of a mountain and great views. The snorkeling at Blue Lagoon was fantastic lots of fish and we even saw a turtle. The best part was our driver/guide Ketut he was very knowledgeable, kind and looked after us like a hawk
The guides were really knowledgeable and considerate, leading us to all the calm spots with lots of fish, sea turtles, sea snakes, stingrays, and half of the cast of Finding Nemo. Everyone we encountered was kind and went out of their way to make sure everyone in the group was taken care of (transport, lunch, shower, equipment, etc.) Our driver, Vitho, was a very patient and careful driver. We got stuck in traffic for hours on the evening due to a ceremony taken place in a nearby temple and was inching along for hours, but he was super chill and made sure we moved as fast as we could while staying safe. Thank you everyone for making our holiday special!
Fabulous from start to finish our guide Vitho picked us up on time from our hotel. He was polite knowledgeable and extremely courteous. The day was very well planned with a schedule. He took care of everything! The photo opportunities were great and the snorkelling experience wonderful we saw turtles. The food was delicious well worth the money.
It was amazing trip with a nice and professional guide. Trip prepared individually for our needs. I definitely recommend 😊👍
both places are worth seeing, they are very beautiful experiences and memories. We had a very respectful and attentive guide, who told us about the culture and places in Bali.
We had the most amazing day on this trip. Our driver and guide Juli was great, knowledgeable and friendly. I definitely recommend this day trip!
The tour guide was amazing, he gave us lots of information about Bali as a whole and was kind to us.
I used the smile bali tours for my vacation in Bali with my family for the umpteenth time, we visited the incredible lempunyang temple, the blue lagoon snorkeling was very good and the food was delicious for local food, and lastly our tour visited Tirta gangga which was really beautiful to capture the holiday we were in bali, and my driver Eka was amazing, great communication and friendly and very funny! clean car, highly recommend smile bali tours to take a tour in Bali. Thank you
This was definitely the best experience on our trip to Bali. The guide mr Ketut, was awesome. He was making jokes and conversation and keeping things lively on the road, and also provided us with a vast amount of knowledge about Bali of where to go and what to see. This trip is filled woth cultural herotage, Instagrammable places, as well as an awesome snorkeling experience in some of the clearest water I have seen. This is definitely my top recommended teip to do in Bali
We had an amazing day visiting these amazing places with our guide Ketut ! We highly recommend smile tour company and Ketut as guide ! He speaks very good English, Gives amazing information about Balinese culture and made our day a special event we will Remember for the rest of our lives ! This day of activity is a must and you will be very happy of your visit to these amazing places ! We will come back to Bali for sure ! Eat pray love ! 🙏. Namaste !
Our driver Adi was really good! He picked us up and kept us informed of all the sites we visited. It was a lot of fun and we got to see so many cool places! However the one thing was there wasn’t a snorkeling instructor for the water, just the boat driver who fitted us with equipment. But overall it was a really great day!
This trip is a must!! Our driver was very friendly and welcoming, he was full of knowledge and explained things to us what we found very interesting. Our driver was more than happy to take photos for us and wait while we took a lot of photos. Snorkeling was an amazing experience and after had a lovely meal. Overall had a great day wish we could do it again 😊
A very pleasant trip, always the best service and conversation. Snorkeling at the Blue lagoon is a great experience with a delicious lunch they also took us to the Lempuyang temple where you can take incredible photos of 'Heaven's Gate'. We will choose this again!
Everything about this tour was wonderful It was well planned and no time was wasted The driver was very kind and helpful I recommend this trip
I was in Bali for work, since I had a full day off, I had planned this trip to do immediately, on arrival. It was a beautiful experience, almost surreal. The night before. on WhatsApp the driver wrote me confirming the time and was very punctual. From Jimbaran, it took us about 3.5 hours to get there (heavy traffic) but still it was nice to look at the landscapes outside. Once you get there, they give you the number (it's the sequence number for taking pictures). Everything organized very well, photographers calling with the microphone your number, we waited about 3 hours but it was worth it. The photos are all beautiful, professionals work on them. I'm very happy I made this trip. Congratulations to the Bali tourist company that did an impeccable job. After we went snorkelling, as soon as we arrived we were immediately given masks, fins, boat, we did not even wait 5 minutes. The weather was nice and we saw a turtle, clown fish, lots of colorful fish. Experience absolutely to do. Snorkelling is done in two different places. After they took us to eat, our driver waited for us and took us back to the hotel (another almost 3 hours by car). We could have gone again to visit the Luwak coffee plantation but, having a work engagement in the evening, we had no more time to do so and arrived at the hotel at 18:30 (left in the morning at 05:45) I recommend this experience to everyone, it's to be done!
The view from the beach was amazing. The driver was very resourceful and gave us an enjoyable trip.
We reached the blue lagoon aboard a local boat with which we rode the waves. We saw a lot of tropical fish and magnificent reefs. After a great lunch Mr Rambo took us to see the door to paradise! Bellissimo!
Everything organized to perfection! Wayan, our driver, was fantastic, kind and helpful. He guided us among the different attractions but also provided us with details and nuances of the local customs and habits. Highly recommended!!!
Superbe journée à Bali ! Plongée en apnée au lagon bleu, suivi d’un dîner balinais inclus dans l’expédition ! C’était très bon ! En-suite visite du temple de Lempuyang et superbes photos des portes du Paradis et finalement du temple sacré tirta Gangga ! Vraiment magnifique ! Notre guide tetuk de smile tour à fait de notre journée des moments inoubliables dont nous nous rappellerons toute notre vie ! Je vous recommande fortement cette expédition avec Tetuk comme guide !
