The scenery was absolutely stunning—I couldn’t stop saying “wow”! These beautiful places made me feel so calm and peaceful. I also want to give a special thanks to my friend and guide for this trip, Oka. He was incredibly kind, friendly, and helpful, which made my trip to Nusa Penida even more wonderful and memorable. Thank you so much, Oka! 😊

Overall, the staff were incredibly kind and helpful, making it a truly memorable and enjoyable day. This tour is essential for anyone wanting to fully experience Nusa Lembongan with an efficient schedule. I was thrilled to see manta rays while snorkeling. It was also fun to see beautiful fish at the other two snorkeling spots. For lunch, you can choose from curry, Nasi Goreng, or Mie Goreng, and it also comes with fruit. We were also given complimentary water. We visited scenic viewpoints and enjoyed ourselves until the boat departed. This tour is highly recommended and offers excellent value for the price!

An amazing snorkeling experience! I booked the Nusa Lembongan and Nusa Penida 3-dive-site tour (including Manta Point) on Klook two days in advance. You can choose your departure location. It runs from 9:30 AM to 2:00 PM, with complete hotel-to-boat round-trip transfer. Before snorkeling starts, they drive you to the pier for a welcome drink, restroom break, clothes changing, and equipment fitting. There are about 10 people per boat, and the guide prioritizes spots with fewer people and more fish based on the conditions of the day. When you reach a dive site, you jump off the boat yourself, and you stay at each site for about ten minutes. The guide calls everyone to stay close together the whole time to prevent anyone from getting lost, and at the end, they help everyone take off their fins one by one and climb the ladder back onto the boat. The scenery along the way is truly super beautiful! Not only did I see the full views of Nusa Lembongan, Nusa Penida, and Ceningan Island, but I also saw the rare manta rays (two of them!) and sea turtles (two of them!) underwater! The coral reefs here are all colorful, and the schools of fish are densely packed. So pretty! My teammate was doing snorkeling for the very first time and was very scared. The guide had her hold onto a life ring, pulled her along with a rope the entire time, and promptly pushed others away to avoid underwater collisions. Very considerate. The boat provides everyone with a mask, snorkel, fins, life jacket, bottled ice water, and a towel. Seriously, coming out of the water is so cold, and wrapping up in a towel brings you back to life. I will definitely come again next time!

To get thrown into rough sea to see Manta Rays at Manta Bay was scary for beginners or non swimmers, best to start at Crystal Beach and work your way up to the different places would cause less anxiety for them! I loved the experience it was a highlight of my trip to Bali as always wanted to do it but very expensive elsewhere.

We originally booked this as a day trip from Sanur, but as we were staying on Lembongan Island, the operator kindly arranged a different return boat for us. We really appreciated their flexibility. The waves were too strong to visit the manta ray spot, but we visited four other snorkeling spots instead. The water was surprisingly clear, and we saw lots of fish, which was great fun. Some spots were quite crowded with other groups and boats, so it was difficult to snorkel freely and safely. Still, overall, we really enjoyed the snorkeling experience.

What an amazing day on Penida! we were picked up by our guide, Ariya, who took us to our snorkelling meeting point (even messaged us to make sure we knew what time hed arrive) and helped get us organised! the snorkelling didn't disappoint as we saw a mighty Manta Ray almost as soon as we hit the water. from there we saw reefs and fish and had a great time exploring the flourishing waters of the island. we got back and found Ariya waiting to show us the sights on the Eastern side of the island. his driving left us feeling safe throughout (not his fault the roads are bumpy. lol). the highlight of the afternoon was the twinbgem of Diamond and Atuh Beaches. both amazing. the tour was incredible, start to finish! would highly recommend!

This tour was the absolute highlight of our Bali trip! My sister and I had the best time, all thanks to our amazing guides who were so kind and attentive from start to finish. First off, our driver, Dede😎 was fantastic. He drove very safely, and his communication for the pick-up and transfers was prompt and clear. He made sure we were completely comfortable throughout the journey. Our Nusa Penida tour guide, Agus😝, was simply the best!👍 His great sense of humor and engaging explanations made the tour so much fun. Hearing his stories about Bali from a true local’s perspective gave us a deeper understanding of the culture and life here, making the trip so much more meaningful. The boat snorkeling was unreal—we saw SO many manta rays! 🐠They were much bigger, and there were way more of them than I expected. Swimming with them was truly a breathtaking experience. A huge thank you to our wonderful guides for making our day in Bali so unforgettable. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Overall, this Nusa Lembongan and Ceningan day tour was a great experience. The snorkeling, Blue Lagoon, and Devil’s Tear were the highlights. The sea was much bluer than Bali mainland, and the islands had a slower, more relaxing atmosphere. The transportation was well arranged, including the boat, harbor pickup, island transport, and return trip. It is very convenient for travelers who do not want to plan everything by themselves. However, this felt more like a driver and transportation service than a real guided tour, as there was almost no explanation. The boat and island roads can be bumpy, but overall it felt safe. I still recommend this tour, although the price felt a little high for what was included.

it was a fun day. our driver and guide Tesa did a fantastic job. He is an excellent driver with great skills on the worst road possible. All the 4 island we visited was worthwhile and we forgot the potholes that we had to drive on!!
