I had a great full day with Ketut El - temples, waterfalls, mountains and a visit to Ubud. Just before we came back to the hotel we even got to see some rooster fighting at the local rooster arena, an incredible Balinese experience! I can fully recommend Ketut El as your local tour guide when visiting Bali!Great day with Ketut El - recommended!

We had a brilliant tour of Ubud with El. He is English is great and he was very good explaining everything to us. He picked us up from our hotel and drove us around. We visited the town, the Campuhan ridge, Ubud palace and a local traditional village as well as trying a few different types of local food. As it’s our first trip here it was very useful to hear from a local person all about the culture and traditions. We would definitely recommend doing a tour with El. Brilliant guide

I really enjoyed the day tour with Katut. Being an English teacher myself, I really enjoyed conversation with Katut, who is also an English teacher and told me everything about the educational environment in Indonesia. I was also impressed with his industriousness for developing his career by making use of every opportunity available. Good luck to Katut, and maybe someday when he comes to Japan, I will be happy to escort him and tour around. Thank you very much,Wonderful trip

EL was always helpful, we had only one tour booked with him and we ended up spendind three whole days getting to know this beautiful island with him. He can take you from the most touristic place to the best and most amazing hidden spot you can imagine. With him you get to know the local culture and the real atmosphere of Bali. Don’t hesitate to contact him if you are in Bali. You won’t regret it! Highly recommended

We did a wonderful 5 hour tour with Ketut EL. We were a little unsure of how to get the mix of natural beauty and culture right and he was extremely helpful with suggestions and very flexible to adjusting plans. We ended up with the perfect balance. He gave us plenty of time to ourselves to enjoy walks or explore historical sites, but was very happy to walk with us at other times and provided many interesting insights regarding Balinese culture. He was an excellent guide, friendly and responsive, and we would thoroughly recommend him to fellow travellers.Friendly, professional and informative!

The title says it all… As a person, EL is fantastic: fun, always available to help, patient and always smiling! As a guide, you cannot do better: he will customise and adapt your trip to make sure you visit what you want, he will give you recommendations if you lack of inspiration, he will always be happy to change plans and adjust the tour to what you want to do, he is passionate about his culture and city and knows a lot about it and he is not intrusive at all (which is for me important when you are going with your BF/GF etc). His car is big, new and clean, and that’s also important :) If you are going to Bali, make sure to contact him to plan your trip cause you will not regret it! What an experience!!

I went on my food tour with Ketut EL my first day in Bali and it made such a huge difference in my entire trip. He was a fantastic guide. Aside from the basics-picking me up on time, making sure I had water a long the way, helping me with safe crossing across the busy streets, he taught me so much about Bali and the culture that I took with me the rest of my trip. the food was beyond fantastic, but seriously DON’T EAT beforehand. I was so full by the end I could barely walk! You can’t go wrong taking a tour with Ketut ELbeyond fantastic

Went on food tour on streets of Denpasar with my 17 year old daughter. Ketut was a great guide. He picked us up at our hotel on time in a clean car with bottled water and we headed off to our first of many stops being main food market in Denpasar. So many food stops followed and we were very full probably half way through so do not eat before !! Ketut answered all our questions and was very informative You won’t be disappointed with this tour or Ketut Thanks for a great experience !! Denpasar Food Tour

My tour with Ketut El was absolutely amazing. He speaks wonderful English and took time to explain and answer all my questions (I'm full of them). I loved how helpful he was about accommodating my food preferences (my tolerance for spicy food is mild at best... and Balinese food is crazy spicy) and was often able to get them to make my food to taste. The walking part was just as informative as the actual food tour. It was wonderful to take time and hear history from him of the various courtyards, buildings, statues, and plazas we passed. Ketut is a wealth of information! And it was very cool to go to parts of the city that you probably would never visit as a tourist. Show up for this tour VERY HUNGRY... I was begging Ketut to roll me back to the car, I was so full by the end. I typically don't eat fried foods or sweets, which there are a lot of on this tour, but I was happy to throw my diet to the wind for a day and truly experience what is authentic to Bali. This is one of my favorite things I did on my trip. Highly recommend! A Must Do Tour!

Nuestro viaje a Bali fue realmente divertido Y aún fue mejor gracias a Ketut EL. Hizo de nuestro viaje experiencias memorables, nos hizo probar frutas tropicales que nunca habíamos visto ni oído hablar, probamos diferentes comidas locales, fuera de sitios turísticos, se conocía cada rincón de Bali y nos hizo sentir uno más de allí. Fue increíble. También nos recomendó sitio qué visitar para aprovechar al máximo nuestro viaje a esta hermosa isla. Recomiendo enormemente a Ketut EL como vuestri anfitrión en Bali!!!Realmente divertido
