Testimonials:-
“I was in Bali for the first time over the New Year’s holiday. I was able to meet up with Dewardana on two different days! We were able to explore Seminyak and then spend some time in Ubud. He was a great companion!
Not only was he knowledgeable and accommodating to my many requests and questions – he was fun! We spent plenty of time in Bali traffic, and I was never bored. He made sure that my time in Bali was well spent. When I return I hope Dewardana is available!” – Edward, USA.
“Dewardana was polite, thoughtful, considerate and professional. Being my first time in Bali, I felt safe with him. He started communication with me way ahead of our scheduled appointment day. He also made appropriate suggestions for the day’s itinerary. I would definitely recommend him for anyone coming to Bali.” – Christopher, Singapore
“Dewardana made my first trip to Bali such a great first time experience. I felt so well looked after with him, he always made sure I had plenty of water and was watching always to make sure I didn’t fall over and when I might need a rest (have a slight leg disability). Not everyone would care so much about you as he did. His knowledge of all the sites we visited was incredible and I learned so much. The most important thing is how safe you feel with his driving, Bali isn’t the easiest place to get around and he did it with such ease and patience and I felt extremely safe at all times- I would highly recommend Dewardana if you are coming to Bali and need a driver/tour guide. He made my holiday one that I will always remember.”- John, Australia
