Awesome Bedegul day tour with Sakha as our friendly driver/guide/photographer. Well-paced, informative, and ticked all the boxes. We visited Handara Gate, Ulun Danu Temple, Jatiluwih Rice Terraces (with buffet lunch stop), Tanah Lot Temple, and Tamar Ayun Temple. Sakha told us the story of the new king and Temple celebrations. He took amazing photos and videos, and suggested other activities we should do during our holiday.

We saw and learnt so much about this beautiful place. Leo was a great driver and guide. We would go with the company and Leo again.
We saw some wonderful historical sites and also got a good feel for local culture. Bagus took us to his village on the way and shared his own coffee roast which was some of the best coffee ive had. Over all it was a great trip and we got lots of good pictures and memories.
Today my Wife & I went to so many beautiful places with our lovely guide. He is an extremely wonderful kind hearted person where he gave us a tour around the beautiful island. While visiting these tour spots he also taught us about Bali’s wonderful culture. We had such an amazing time that we recommend this tour & the company to whoever’s going to be visiting Bali. We thank our guide with our hearts. Thank You again for such a wonderful time.
My experience is excellent after adjustment of the tour and concise it to Bedugul. My advise is to arrange tours by areas since Bali is very crowded and passing through Seminyak and Canggu can take hours. Thanks for being understanding and replacing my Tanah lot temple with other attractions in Bedugul. Lunch is unfortunately very bad 💔 Great thanks and appreciation to our driver Gusde
Kanu was a fantastic guide - knowledgeable and sharing stories about his life in Bali. The highlights of the tour were Tanah Lot, rice terrace and Ulun Danu Beratan Temple and must see sights for everyone visiting this wonderful island. Kanu did not press us for time and took a number of wonderful photos that we will treasure. Only negative is that doing this tour from Sanur meant a long time in the car due to the distance and traffic - 12 hours ! A fantastic trip and guide.
Good tour. Will definitely recommend it to anyone who goes to Bali. Good tour and the guide was great
It was a very pleasant excursion, Kris was an excellent guide, he told us a lot about the history and traditions of the places we visited. The important thing to point out is that she is an extremely sensitive and polite person and when spending a day together for a private tour it is essential. Highly recommended… ultimately she is also a great photographer with an eye for detail if you are passionate about photography for your social media or memories.
I have been to Bali for the third time, but I have never been to Tanah Lot Temple. Our personal driver, Puturika, arrived at the hotel on time and explained a lot about Balinese culture throughout the trip, helping us to get back and forth comfortably. And I asked him to take a picture, and he gave me a really beautiful scenery and people. If someone is traveling to Bali, I recommend that you contact him and travel. Thank you 🙏
We had the absolute pleasure of spending 2 days touring beautiful Bali with Agung Rai. Not only was he pleasant to be with but he was also so knowledgeable about Bali, the regions, the customs and the people. Would highly recommend.
Udi was such a pleasent tourguide. We could ask him anything and everything. He was very polite, kind and friendly. He brought us some snacks and water. We have a wonderfull day! Definalty worth it!
What a great tour, couldn't have asked for a better tour guide in Kris. Brilliant conversation and explanation of everything. Perfect tour in comfort. Lunch was amazing. Some truly memorable memories have been made. Well done Kris 😊.
Me along with my mother did the tour and Yudi was our guide. He was excellent and showed us all the location and was with us the whole time. I would highly recommend the tour and guide Yudi, as he was kind and very helpful.
We really enjoyed this excursion ! We can saw many beautiful things and the lunch with the rice paddies view is amazing ! Our driver / guide Surya is really nice and explain very well the the history of places. Thanks to him !
We had a great day trip with G’Day as our driver and tour guide. The temples and botanical garden were very impressive and the rice fields were amazing to visit. G’Day was informative and very friendly - he even made a stop for us to try luwak coffee at a cafe with a terrific view. We would highly recommend this trip and G’Day as a guide.
Our driver, Bigus, was fantastic. He was very patient in taking many excellent pictures and poses at each site. He was very polite and very informative on the culture of Bali and Indonesia. Would definitely recommend him as your driver. It was a fun and pleasant trip for us.
He’s great! Me and my friend Tim just arrived in Bali yesterday and heard great things about this tour company. Kris is very professional, welcoming, and extremely knowledgeable!! 10/10
Hendra, Our driver/guide was fantastic, very nice person, knows the roads, fun to talk with, me and my wife had a pleasant time with him. Strongly recommended.
My family of four had a private full day tour with Aron. We had a fantastic day/night. Aron had lots of knowledge about the Temples we visited and points of interest throughout the day. Aron offered to take our photos and made sure we were dropped off and picked up right out front of all our destinations, he had bottled water for us to drink. Nothing was to much trouble . Aron’s politeness and warm friendly personality was second to none . THANK YOU ARON for such a great day. We will be recommending you to our friends who visit Bali.
We booked 2 full day tour with Hire Bali Driver online and was impressed with their prompt response to confirm our trip and answer our queries. We got Yande K as our driver for the 2 day tours. He speaks good English and is very friendly and patient. It was raining on both days, but Yande still manage to bring us to most of the places in the planned itinerary. He also patiently helped to carry our umbrellas around and took group photos. The spots that he pointed out certainly turned out to be good photo spots. He also shared with us many interesting things about Bali culture and the places we visited. Glad that we had booked our trip with Hire Bali Driver and got Yande as our driver and guide.
We signed up online for the Tanah Lot Temple tour with Hireabalidriver.com. Surya was our guide and driver. He is a nice and friendly guide and is very knowledgeable about the history and cultural aspects of the temples. We are also impressed by his familiarity with local streets and traffic. We visited the Taman Ayun temple, Ulun Danu Temple in Beratan, the Jatiluwih Rice Terrace, and the Tanah Lot temple. Surya is an excellent guide and we finished each temple visit with a sense of appreciation and awe. Buffet lunch at the rice terrace also offered a great view of the terraces. Overall, we highly recommend this tour.
I contacted Hire Bali Driver while still in the UK to ensure that we had a number of things booked for when we arrived in Bali. They responded promptly and gave clear instructions as to what to expect. No payment was required at this point. On the day of our tour we received a WhatsApp message from our driver Gede Wiratma to tell us he had arrived (on time) at our hotel in Jimbaran. He was extremely polite and friendly and the fact he spoke good English was a bonus. The car was comfortable and cool. Gede was a careful driver on the very busy roads of Bali and made us feel safe. The trip itself was great lasting the full day and comprising of trips to Tanah Lot, Jatiluwih Rice Terrace, Ulun Danu Temple and Ayana Ayun Temple. Gede sorted everything for us and helped to explain the history of each site. He also helped take pictures and provided us with refreshments when needed. The sites themselves are stunning, though it’s worth reading reviews of the actual places to ensure that they’re what you want to see. Gede was very flexible and was happy to go to different places or in a different order depending on what we wanted. We actually visited a coffee plantation on the way back from Jatiluwih, which we really enjoyed. Overall I would highly recommend booking with Hire Bali Driver. It’s an easy way of seeing the sites without the hassle of sorting your own taxi on the day or using an app such as Grab. For us, our driver made the day. It was great to get to know Gede and we will remember him as much if not more than some of the sites. We ended up booking further day trips with him and Hire Bali Driver and a really glad we did. Thanks Gede and thanks Hire Bali Driver!!
When I come to bali for honeymoon I decide to hire this company for exploring the beautifull of coutryside bali island, it's very easy to book and fast respon.

A wonderful day trip to the Ulun Danu Temple at Bedugul Lake, the BotanicalGarden, the monkeys at Alas Kedaton and the sunset a Tanah Lot temple. Must comment on the professionalism of the driver Kantun Nengah. He was the perfect complement to the trip, providing relevant information and anecdotes as needed to the sites, as well as indulging our quirks.
We had an amazing day! Our guide Yande/Arta was very nice and knowledgeable. We were able to make minor adjustments on the fly as we’ve visited one of the spots before and Yande/Arta had lots of other suggestions to visit on the way to Tanah Lot. This was our second trip with Hire Bali Driver and as amazing as the first one. We will definitely recommend this company (and Yande/Arta ;) ) to our friends and family when they come to visit Bali! Again, thanks a lot for an awesome day full of laughs and great memories! Mela & Marc
We went on a tour with Yan de, and he was absolutely amazing. Friendly, informative and an excellent guide. He made everything very easy, worked with us to make sure we did everything we wanted to do at our own pace, and made us feel comfortable. Easily the best tour guide we have experienced.
We had a really good day trip around Tanah Lot and the rice terraces with our driver Kadek Giok. He was very knowledgeable and patiently explained to us the Balinese culture along the way during our various stops at the different attractions. He is also very cheerful and friendly, and holds good conversations in English, which made our tour very memorable and enjoyable.
We had a really good daytrip with our driver G’Day. On our request we changed the trip a bit, we went to the Ghost Hotel. We had lunch in a good restaurant and saw the sunset at Tanah Lot wich was great. Thanks a lot!
entrance to the temple is restricted, which is dissappointing. its a long way away from the main places. visit if you have time. sunset views are great. fascinating place. makes for good photo ops.
<p>The driver was very kind and professional.<br/> We asked a small modify to the trip and he agreed without any problem.</p>
<p>The Tanah Lot temple is a "cannot miss" for anyone visiting Bali. We were not lucky as due to cloudy weather we could not see the sunset (else would have given 5 stars), which is supposedly the best on the island.</p>
<p>Tour guide is very excellent and flexible. Highly recommend</p>
<p>We have been on several Viator tours and this undoubtedly is the worst!!! <br/> Here is a list of reasons too Not Book :<br/> For 75 Aus dollars you can hire a driver for an entire day from Kuta all the way to Pemuteran Nrth West Bali, 5 hours drive, we did that a week earlier and our driver Neuman was good.This tour is 128 for 2. <br/> Our tour guide Trishna, was highly Unprofessional, he asked invasive personal questions about our personal lives.<br/> He talks way too much! He just keep talking about trival things like flat rice fields, even though we told him it was our 4th trip there and he kept waiting for us to acknowledge every comment, he made the trip work?!<br/> He made crass, obscene and sexist jokes that neither of us appreciated. <br/> On several occasions, he tried to guilt us out and asked us to give his terrible tour a good review as he kept saying make sure you go on trip advisor and viator and recommend my tour? He even had the hide to say Oh people like us, can't afford to stay in 5 star hotels like you people. ??? This guide has no manners or shame at all !!!...</p>
Our guide, Lewer, was extremely friendly and kept an eye on us throughout. He offered us a fascinating tour, showing us the different temples, gods and their meanings in detail. He was always willing to help us, whether it was taking pictures or finding the best views. It was certainly an amazing experience. I recommend it 100%
Check the TIDE time and go to get close to the Tannerot Temple. At the bottom of the temple, you can get a free line, whip a stone, stick a flower in your ear, and put rice on your forehead. (If you want to donate) The stone slips, so be careful when walking. On the way out, there's a dessert that's wrapped in banana leaves like corn bread and suits Korean taste. You can't go directly into the temple to see it, but the surrounding views are great and parking is convenient.
We booked our trip 2 days earlier by email, which worked without any problems and we promptly got a reply back. We asked if we could make a small adjustment to the tour (Butterfly Park instead of Taman Ayun Temple), which was immediately affirmed. On the day of the tour we were picked up on time by our driver Made at our hotel. He discussed the program with us in advance and tipped us to visit Butterfly Park second as the butterflies would not be as active later in the day. Made was otherwise a very likeable person and could tell us a lot. He took great photos of us and the sights. Thanks to Made for the great day!!
We would like to thank our guide Rusman for giving us many unforgettable moments within a few hours. Also I would like to have mentioned that we had actually booked a trip to Uluwatu. We noticed when we started the trip that the car would take 4 hours in total (round trip), after which our guide and the office easily rebooked the trip on a day trip to Tanahlot at our request. Big plus in terms of flexibility. But now for the trip itself: We were picked up at our villa in Ubud at half past two. My girlfriend and I were allowed to sit down in a very well-kept, nicely cooled SUV. Water was also served to us right away. After a half hour drive (traffic situation was Bali typically chaotic ;-)) with our own music via Bluetooth we reached Tanahlot. At first we went from the parking lot via the market, which we left relatively quickly. Along truly breathtaking paths along the cliffs, we visited temples, snake caves and cliffs, all accompanied by Rusman, who enriched us with stories about the temples' past, about the Balinese faith. But there was always plenty of time for stops and photos. When this part of the tour was completed, we were led to a very cozy restaurant where the guests' tables were above a koi pool..Our guide said goodbye for the next hour so we had a few moments just to ourselves. The food was high quality, extensive and reasonably priced, but upscale. After dinner we went to a classical Kecak dance, which also put us in a kind of trance. The price of the ticket was 50,000 rupia per person, very favorable for the unique impressions. Afterwards we made our way back until we reached our villa an hour later at about 9am. I want to thank Rusman and the whole team again. When we come back to Bali, we will book our next trips here as well. Big thumbs up!
