it was perfect for all the arrangements! we join the tour(Atv,rafting and swing)right after we arrived Bali airport. And the driver Risia was very on time and kind. He took care us for whole day with perfect photography techniques. All the staffs that we met in the tour were very caring and nice! It’s definitely definitely worth a try if you are looking for some excitement. highly recommend, especially if you are only have a few time to stay in Ubud.

We had a blast! Really enjoyed our time especially in Goa Raju, if only we could stay a bit more longer we will. The waterfalls is really refreshing after spending our time out in the sun. Erman is really professional, he took all our photos like a professional photographer. He was very nice, accommodating, and helpful. He even taught us how we will look best on our photos and videos. He went all out for this trip and was really patient whenever we need anything during the course of the trip. We are looking forward for our next Bali trip and definitely will recommend him as a tour guide. He really showed us that he is well experienced, surely an asset to the company. Hope we will see you again! :)

Thanks to the driver who kindly guided me, I had a very comfortable trip. If I have the chance next time, I would like to make another reservation. I have used other service apps, but none of them are as safe and reliable as Klook.
