          Absolutely Amazing!! Life changing 10/10.
          Ketut Ajus our driver was an absolute superstar!! He was right on time to pick us up and was so friendly, bubbly and personable. He gave such a thorough explanation of the healing experience and how to tap into feelings to make the most of the cleansing process. I listened to Ketut and he was 10000% right and I couldn’t have done it without him! I felt so so amazing and he continued to show us around to the other beautiful destinations that followed. 10 stars for Ketut and the healing experience - thank you so much Ketut Ajus!!!!

          Excellent tour with an even better tour guide!
          We did the Bali blessing tour with Wira, who was an excellent tour guide, very knowledgeable and more than happy to answer any questions we had about Bali and other nearby areas. He was also very friendly and spoke english very well. He took plenty of pictures for us (and a few including him!) And his car was nicely air conditioned throughout the tour.

          Purification Day Tour Ubud
          What an amazing and profound experience! Our tour guide, Komang Alu, is absolutely top-knock. He’s the real deal, highly recommend. On the way to each spot and during each activity Komang Alu took his time to explain every aspect of Hinduism in detail, including their temples, their god and all its presentations, and everything about Balinese culture. He made my partner and I feel very welcomed and respected. When he took us to the purification ceremony, he made sure we took our time during our prayers (not like other tour guides that unfortunatelly hurried other turists). Komang Alu made sure we had a beautiful experience and knows all the locals, getting us great deals and sorting us out! He arrived 20 min early, and as we were heady and happy to go, this helped us get ahead of the traffic. We had great fun at the Rice Paddoks (HE IS SUCH AN AMAZING PHOTOGRAPHER/VIDEOGRAPHER!!!), then purification ritual, then we went to do a tea and coffee tour, followed by seeing local woodwork artists working at a local shop. He made sure we were happy and always checked in with us. At the end, at woodwork artists shop, he advised us when purchasing a small statue, epxlaining the meaning, value and spiritual importance of it. Komang Ali knows how to transform things that can be “mundane” (for those who don’t know the meaning, like us foreigners), to something absolutely magical. I would highly recommend him for your day trip to Ubud if youd like to explore it through the eyes of a local, have great fun, great advice and a true spiritual experience. Suksuma, Komang Alu! 🙏 We will be back! Nick & Nicky.

          Incredible Experience with Ketut
          This was one of the most beautiful experiences we had in Bali. Our tour guide, Ketut Ajus, was incredibly knowledgeable about Balinese culture and religion. He went above and beyond and made the experience one we will remember for years to come. Would highly recommend!

          Tirta Empul and Rice terrace
          Excellent trip! We had a great experience at Tirta Empul where we did the holy water purification ceremony. The guide Wayan explained about Balinese culture and history in good english. He helped with all the practicalities. It was a great view over the rice terraces. I would recommend this to learn more about the beliefs and culture on the island!

          Excellent trip! We learned a lot of the religion and the balinese culture from our guide, Wayan. The ritual in the water temple was very special, and Wayan explained everything we needed to know. I highly recommend to do this tour.

          Ubud Day Tour - Worth Every Penny!
          We had the absolute pleasure of spending time with Ketut during our trip to Bali, and honestly, he made our experience unforgettable! Not only is he incredibly funny and friendly, but nothing is ever too much trouble for him. Always on time, Ketut has the most amazing knowledge about Bali – from hidden gems to local traditions – he knows it all. We had such a great day with him that we ended up booking him again for the very next day! Luckily, he was available, and we went tubing, which was an absolute blast. Every single thing he recommended was so much fun and fantastic value for money. Ketut is so trustworthy and genuine that we’ve already recommended him to all our friends and family. From now on, he’s the only person we’ll ever use when we return to Bali. If you’re looking for the best guide around, Ketut is your guy!

          Cooking Bali Style
          We ( Chris and Jo ) had a great excursion to this activity and cooking traditional Bali Style. The dishes were simple but tasty and we would highly recommend this sort of activity to anyone. You certainly will not go home feeling hungry that is for sure. Our guide and masterchef for the day was Wayan Rondana and Ketut. Thanks Wyan / Ketut and also to our driver for a great afternoon. Chris and Jo

          I had an amazing opportunity to have Ketut as a guide on my trip to bali, We decided to take 2 days trip, where He showed us highlights of the Ubud. Apart from being a wonderful guide, Ketut is a great and always positive guy to chat with, he will answer all your questions with enthusiasm. These tours are the perfect balance between traveling with a guide and the freedom of exploring on your own. Ketut will tell you the most important things (in particular, I recommend visiting a temples with him, because he tells about them in a very interesting way), but when the main attraction are, for example, the views, he will wait patiently for you when you discover and enjoy views and nature.

          Beautiful experience
          I had an amazing experience! My guide was Wayan and he was so knowledgeable. I learnt so much about Balinese culture. The purification at the temple was beautiful and Wayan did the purification with me, guiding me and ensuring I did it correctly to get the most out of it. I loved the coffee plantation, the tasting was so delicious and I purchased a few goodies. Rice terraces are stunning and I loved being surrounded by so much beautiful nature. Highly recommend it’s so worth it!!!

          A day tour to Ubud
          Mr Ketut was a great guide and was always cracking jokes with us. He is very lively and brought us to great places with great heritage and meaning. He is also very informative and knows his stuff well! From plants to leaves to culture to places. He even goes the extra mile to take pictures for us and many other things for our great experience. Highly recommend for others and enjoy a great time!

        We had the pleasure of having Ketut as our private driver during our recent trip to Bali, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. From Seminyak to Ubud and onto Uluwatu, Ketut made our journey truly memorable.

        Ketut was wonderful in every way. His kind demeanor and positive, calming energy immediately put us at ease. He struck the perfect balance between sharing his extensive knowledge of Balinese history and culture, and giving us the space to explore on our own. Each time we returned from a stop, Ketut was waiting with a refreshing bottle of water, a small but thoughtful gesture that made a big difference in the Bali heat.

        From the very beginning, Ketut was incredibly helpful and communicative. He assisted us in building our itinerary, providing valuable insights and warnings about tourist traps. He even suggested alternative locations that were less crowded, which turned out to be hidden gems.

        One of the highlights was Ketut’s photography skills. He took incredible photos of us at each stop, capturing beautiful memories we will cherish forever.

        We highly recommend Ketut to anyone visiting Bali. His kindness, knowledge, and professionalism made our trip truly special. If you’re looking for a reliable and friendly driver to enhance your Bali experience, Ketut is the perfect choice!

        We had an amazing time! We were pleasantly surprised to discover that this was a private tour with just the three of us, which made the experience even more special. Our driver, Komang Ali, went above and beyond by creating a customized itinerary that included additional stops based on his insightful recommendations. He shared fascinating details about each place, enriching our experience with history, traditions, and culture. It was clear he genuinely wanted us to enjoy every moment of the tour. We highly recommend his tour!

        Our guide Ketut Ajus was such a friendly, knowledgeable tour guide with a great sense of humour! We had plenty of time at each destination and Ketut gave us lots of information about each place and local customs. The restaurant for lunch was great too, would highly recommend the half day especially if you have younger kids.

        I had an excellent experience with Ketut as my driver in Ubud. He is incredibly organized and punctual, making the entire trip smooth and stress-free. Ketut is a skilled driver, ensuring a safe and comfortable journey through the busy streets of Ubud. His English is truly exceptional, which made communication effortless.

        What really stood out was his deep knowledge of the area. Ketut provided detailed explanations of all the major points of interest, enriching my understanding of the local culture and history.

        I highly recommend Ketut to anyone looking for a reliable and knowledgeable driver in Ubud!

        Had a wonderful tour yesterday with our guide ketut ajus. He was on time, drove very well with good local knowledge of the roads when we had heavy traffic, had a huge amount of local knowledge for our tour around beautiful ubud, such an interesting tour and answered every question we asked ( and we had many!). He was energetic and really good fun but very professional too. He is so proud of beautiful Bali and it’s people and we learnt a huge amount from him. We will definitely recommend him to our travel agent and friends in Melbourne and will request him as our guide once again the next time we return to this beautiful country. We still have so much to see in Bali, will need to return again! Thanks suksma ketut ajus and ubud Bali day. A really great experience worth repeating.

From start to finish, Ketut was warm, funny, and incredibly knowledgeable about the area.

If you’re looking for a professional, personable, and attentive guide in Bali, Ketut is your guy! This tour was a highlight of my trip.

        We had the most amazing day with our wonderful driver Wira. He gave us an amazing tour of Ubud, we visited Arts and crafts, a coffee plantation, a temple and a waterfall. Wira was an informative guide, excellent local knowledge and a really friendly person who spoke perfect English. He made us feel very comfortable in his air conditioned car, his driving was safe and he was patient in the Bali traffic. I throughly recommend booking this tour with Wira as the guide.

        We had Putu as our driver and were so pleased we chose Ubud Day Tours through Ketut.
        The high rating that this company and Ketut and the team receive are all absolutely spot on.
        Putu our guide and driver was excellent , spoke very good english, was a very careful driver and was very knowledgeable about Balian sights, culture and history.

        He was very patient with the stops we requested and accompanied us to all of the sights giving explanations and relating every site to history and Bali Hindu religious facts .

        The car was aToyota Avanza , very comfortable for the 4 of us and was exceptionally clean and clearly well maintained by Putu.

        I would thoroughly recommend Putu as a driver/guide and also would use Ketut again from Ubud Day Tours ( he is a Guide/ driver himself) who arranged Putu and the car with just a days notice .

        We had another unforgettable day exploring Bali's breathtaking UNESCO World Heritage temples, lush rice terraces, and the stunning Tegenungan Waterfall. Our experience was made even more special by our exceptional guide, Ketut Ajus. He was incredibly polite and deeply knowledgeable, offering insights into the history and significance of each Hindu temple and site we visited, which made the tour both educational and enriching. Ketut is also a skilled and confident driver, so we felt safe and comfortable throughout our journey. His passion for Bali’s culture and heritage truly shone through, and we couldn’t have asked for a better guide. Highly recommended for anyone looking to experience Bali with an expert touch!

        This was my second tour with Ketut, and I would do every tour with him if I could! We gave him a vague idea of what we wanted for the day, and he made the perfect itinerary and coordinated all of our transportation to our next stop! His kind and funny demeanor is so welcoming, and he sets you up for success wherever you go: telling you what to expect and what to look for/do. We love Ketut and are so thankful to have had him as our guide twice!
