From the first meeting with I Putu we all felt like we had been friends forever. We are a family of 5 adults who spent the day driving with I Putu and he made sure we had the best possible day, adjusting the schedule as we went to suit traffic, crowds and our personal interests. His easy, happy nature combined with a fantastic knowledge of all aspects of Balinese life, culture and history made the day fly by and we all learnt so much. Thank you IPutu!Best day in Bali

Putu was an absolute delight and very happy to please our group. We started at the markets with a very informative tour and tried some delicious local fruits etc. and found out the local system with the different tiers of quality of vegetables going to restaurants, supermarkets and local suppliers. We then move to a beautiful Warung amongst a garden where Putu gave an very knowledgable talk about the value of us all visiting and contributing to the local market and how important tourism is to Bali. The food was all delicious (mostly vegan) yum. Lastly, the authentic coffee shop was our last visit where we experienced not only the delicious coffee but one of the original coffee places in Denpasar which had the coolest vibe and a awesome experience. I would highly recommend Putu as he tailored this tour to suit our needs with our group. See you again soon Putu and THANK YOU 🙏Putu your were AMAZING

Putu is an excellent guide. He speaks English well and can tell you so much about Bali and the culture. We visited Bali during Nyepi day and it was so refreshing to learn and understand everything about the culture. He is an incredible guide, easy to understand and very knowledgeable. Took us to great spots on the way to Munduk. Thank you Putu! Super educational

Having been fortunate to have traveled to many countries and hired many guides, I can say with confidence that Putu ranks among the very best in my experience. Putu went out of his way to make sure our day was focused on the sites and activities most important to us, and planned the day accordingly, always making each stop easy (facilitating access, obtaining tickets, etc). Even better, Putu picked up on our other interests along the way, surprising us with impromptu stops at fruit stands, durian tasting and specialty shops. Throughout, we were both impressed and appreciative of Putu's broad knowledge of Bali history and culture, both past and present, as well as his positive attitude. An Extraordinary Guide!

Mr. Putu has been everything that we wanted and more! Incredible guide, super knowledgeable. We had a ton of questions for him and he always had an incredibly interesting and informative answer. He always went out of his way to make our trip more memorable. I would recommend him with my eyes closed to everyone. If you’re looking for a guide to show you the beauty and history of Bali then you are in the right place. Thank you Mr. Putu, from the bottom of our hearts we are beyond thankful for everything you did for us and for making our first time in Bali the best experience ever. Until we meet again! Amazing is not enough to describe him

We had an incredible experience with Putu as our guide in Bali! He was absolutely fantastic—super fun, extremely knowledgeable, and always willing to go the extra mile to make our trip special. From hidden gems to must-see attractions, he knew exactly where to take us and made sure we had the best experiences at every stop. His friendly and engaging personality made every moment enjoyable, and his deep knowledge of Balinese culture, history, and traditions added so much value to our journey. If you’re looking for a guide who will not only show you Bali but also make you feel at home, Putu is the one! Highly recommended!Putu was awesome

I was looking for a guide with deep knowledge of Balinese culture, as I knew very little and am naturally very curious. Putu exceeded all my expectations! He answered every one of my questions with patience and shared fascinating insights from his personal experiences. His kindness and vast knowledge truly stood out. The day I spent with Putu was undoubtedly the highlight of my trip to Bali. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for an enriching and memorable experience!Best guide ever!
