The departure time was flexible, making it a perfect tour for families with children. Our guide, Dwi, was kind, had a lovely smile, and was very helpful! The car was also great! #Dwi

Simple itinerary, we were picked up and dropped off at a coffee experience centre where there were free samples of coffee and tea, and you can also pay to try a cup of luwak coffee. Thereafter, we went Padang Padang Beach to have a look, then proceeded to Uluwatu temple to explore the grounds. Most time was spent waiting for the performance to start. Kecak dance performance was pretty interesting, an information sheet with the storyline was given.

Nice cultural fire dance show. Good entertainment and was informative. Only downside is that it is far away from city but Grab rides are available. Wi-Fi provided at the ticket booking centre helps book return Grab rides for people without local sim card

The trip is good and it does not have too many schedules so it is flexible for us to take photos and take a break! The guide tour man is good and on time. He will always show his supportive and take photos for us and recommend some restaurants in the beach. Nice trip and good experience.

Amazing views and a great experience overall! A cheeky monkey even grabbed my glasses while I was wearing them, but our guide quickly got them back. Tip: be careful with sunglasses and phones here — the monkeys are fast!

Balinese Traditional Dance - A Must-See! The white monkey interacts with the audience. Scene 1: Luring the Tiger Away from the Mountain (The Golden Deer) Rama, Sita, and his younger brother are wandering in the forest. In order to distract Rama, the demon king sends his subordinates to transform into a beautiful "golden deer" to attract Sita. Sita wants the golden deer very much, so Rama has no choice but to chase it, leaving his younger brother to protect Sita. Scene 2: Deception and Kidnapping (The Kidnapping) Rama's screams (actually sound effects faked by the demon king) came from the forest. Sita was very nervous and forced her younger brother to rescue him. Before leaving, the younger brother drew a "sacred protection circle" on the ground, warning Sita never to step out of it. At this time, the demon king transformed into a thirsty and pitiful old monk, tricking the sympathetic Sita into stepping out of the protective circle. As soon as Sita walked out, the demon king instantly revealed his true form and kidnapped her back to the demon kingdom (Lanka Island). Scene 3: The Monkey God Arrives (Hanuman's Mission) Rama learned that his wife had been captured and sent the white monkey general "Hanuman" to find her. Hanuman sneaked into the demon king's imperial garden and found the sad Sita, gave her Rama's ring as a token, and guaranteed that Rama would come to rescue her. Scene 4: Burning the Demon Palace (The Fire Dance - The climax of the whole show) Hanuman was caught after making a scene in the demon palace, and the demon king ordered him to be burned alive. Hanuman has divine power to protect his body, not only was he not burned to death, but he also kicked over the fire, burning the demon king's palace to ashes! Ending: The Battle Between Good and Evil (The Final Battle) In the end, Rama led the monkey army to fight the demon king. Good triumphs over evil, and Rama and Sita are successfully reunited.

The guide was very kind and made the trip very comfortable. They even provided tea and water. The Kecak dance was a bit boring, but since it was my first time seeing it, I watched it until the end. Uluwatu Temple is definitely worth visiting. But be sure to keep your phone in your pocket because the monkeys will take it.
