My friends and I always choose tours with transfers, especially when it’s our first time visiting a country. Our transfer driver, Dewata, was punctual and incredibly patient. He even took us on a side trip to Teba Sari Bar and Restaurant, where we had lunch, and he kindly waited for us the entire time.
Our jeep drivers, Armada and Agus, were not only excellent drivers but also very skilled at taking photos. They truly made our Mount Batur trip memorable, even though the weather was cloudy and a bit rainy. While we didn’t get to see the perfect sunrise, the view at the top was still absolutely surreal.
Afterward, the jeep drivers took us to a beautiful temple—I can’t remember the exact name, but the sign in front read “Pura Segara Ulun Danu Batur.” They were very accommodating and even apologized for the weather (which, of course, was beyond their control) because they were concerned we might be disappointed about missing the full sunrise.
Overall, this trip was totally worth it. All three drivers were extremely hospitable, caring, and genuinely attentive, which made the entire experience even more special.
