The experience
You'll be picked up from your hotel lobby at a time you request, and your driver will discuss which places matter most to you before the day starts. The car is a Toyota Avanza or Suzuki APV: air-conditioned, with room for the group without feeling cramped. Your driver doubles as a guide: he'll explain the temples and Bali culture as you move through them, help you get tickets at each stop (typically 15,000–50,000 rupiah, or about $1.50–$3.50 per site), and take your pictures so you're actually in the frame instead of behind the camera.
A sarong is provided at each temple before you enter, so you don't need to arrange that separately. The route itself is yours to shape: stick to the highlights of the south if you want a tighter day, or push north to Kintamani's volcanic landscape and the waterfalls around Singaraja if you have the time and appetite for it. Your driver will suggest places if you're unsure, but the itinerary bends to what you want to see.
Entrance tickets, food and any personal expenses are on you. The driver, the car, the water and the fuel are covered. If you need to start earlier or later than the standard 7:30–9 am window, let the operator know when you book.
Is this one for you?Book this if you want to move through Bali without renting a car or navigating public transport. The driver handles the route, the tickets and the logistics, leaving you to decide where to stop and how long to stay. The flexibility to build your own itinerary works best if you have a sense of what interests you or you're comfortable letting your driver suggest the route as the day unfolds.

Top questions
Can children come?
Yes. Ticket types: Child (under 4): free.
Can I change where we go during the day if I see something I want to visit?
Yes. Your driver will discuss your interests before you leave the hotel and adjust the route as you go. He'll suggest places and handle tickets and logistics at each stop, so you're free to follow what catches your attention without planning it all in advance.
What's the difference between the Normal Trip and the Long Trip?
The Normal Trip covers the south and central areas (Ubud, Sanur, Seminyak, Kuta, Uluwatu) in a single day. The Long Trip reaches farther: Kintamani Volcano, East Bali's waterfalls and beaches, or the northwest temples and Singaraja area. Both run 8–10 hours. The Long Trip covers more ground.
Do I need to wear anything special to visit the temples?
A sarong is provided at each temple before entry, so you don't need to bring one. Dress in smart casual for the day. The sarong covers you at the temple itself.
How many people can fit in the car?
A minivan seats up to 6 people comfortably. If your group is larger, a minibus holds up to 14 people. Both are air-conditioned and include parking and petrol.
What's included in the price, and what do I pay for separately?
The driver, car, bottled water, parking and petrol are included. You pay separately for entrance tickets at temples and attractions (typically $1.50–$3.50 each) and for any food or personal expenses.
Is the driver a guide, or just a driver?
Your driver is both. He speaks English, explains the temples and Bali culture as you visit, helps you get tickets and takes your pictures at each stop. He'll also suggest interesting places if you're unsure what to see.
