Jungut Batu -kierrokset

The Nusa Penida tour was challenging, but the views were amazing and definitely worth it! Agosh was my guide and driver around the island, taking me from one stop to another. I felt dizzy and unwell at the first stop because of the difficult stairs & weather was so hot as well, and he was so kind & helpful. He looked after me and even offered to carry me back up! Thankfully, I felt better after about half an hour, but I really appreciated his offer. I was still able to go down to Diamond Beach, & Agosh was very attentive, assisting me where to step in the steep stairs. I honestly wouldn’t have been able to do it without him. After the boat ride back to Seminyak, Andi was my driver. He was only supposed to drop me off at the meeting point but kindly offered to take me straight to my hotel since it wasn’t far. He said he was happy to do it, & we had a great conversation along the way. Thank you, Agosh and Andi, for taking such good care of me and making the trip even more memorable!

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!

Kaiken kaikkiaan tämä Nusa Lembonganin ja Ceninganin päiväretki oli hieno kokemus. Snorklaus, Blue Lagoon ja Devil’s Tear olivat kohokohtia. Meri oli paljon sinisempi kuin Balin mantereella, ja saarilla oli hitaampi, rennompi tunnelma. Kuljetukset oli hyvin järjestetty, mukaan lukien vene, nouto satamasta, saarikuljetukset ja paluumatka. Se on erittäin kätevä matkailijoille, jotka eivät halua suunnitella kaikkea itse. Tämä tuntui kuitenkin enemmän kuljettaja- ja kuljetuspalvelulta kuin todelliselta opastetulta kierrokselta, sillä selityksiä ei juuri ollut. Vene- ja saaristotiet voivat olla kuoppaisia, mutta kokonaisuutena se tuntui turvalliselta. Suosittelen tätä retkeä silti, vaikka hinta tuntui hieman korkealta siihen nähden, mitä siihen sisältyi.

I think I got a good deal. However, it was a bit different from the itinerary. We were picked up around 7:10 AM and arrived at the harbor, where we waited for about 1 hour and 20 minutes. It was a bit tiring just waiting around and doing nothing. We were told we'd go to Manta Point, but there were about three mantas at Manta Bay, so we snorkeled there instead. The island tour visits three spots, but it's more like three spots in one area for about an hour. We also had to wait a bit long for the return boat. Other than that, I'm satisfied with everything. The lunch was decent, and we could shower. Photos cost 300,000 Rupiah.

Kiertueen sisältö oli upea. Snorklaus, jossa kohtasimme mystisiä mangrovemetsiä, merikilpikonnia ja delfiiniparvia, oli mahtava, ja veneen henkilökunta oli myös mukavaa! Valittavana oli herkullinen lounas. Mikä tärkeintä, kiertueen teki täydelliseksi opas. Hän reagoi välittömästi noutopaikan muutokseen aamulla. Hän varmisti mukavan paikan koko päiväksi. Hän oli kohtelias ja ystävällinen. Hän puhui kaunista japania. Hän teki ehdotuksia toiveidemme mukaisesti. Hän oli todella ystävällinen! Hymyilevän oppaan ansiosta pystyimme nauttimaan olostamme huoletta! Suosittelen tätä ehdottomasti kaikille 😊

We set out early in the morning (4:30 a.m.) for the Thousand Islands and the tree house. We were able to take a few beautiful photos of the sunrise. There are some steep stairs to go down and then back up again 😂 After that, we took a short drive to the Diamond and Atuh Viewpoints. We didn’t go down to either of the two beaches. The path to Diamond Beach was very steep, and it wasn’t worth it to go to Atuh Beach because there wasn’t much water. Instead, we went to the Goa Giri Temple—which is located inside a cave. Arya, our driver and guide, did a great job. As a local, he knows the roads well and was very accommodating of our requests. We were back right on time at 10 a.m.

Dodit was an exceptional driver and tour guide. He was an incredibly safe driver despite the bumpy and windy roads, always taking care to driver slowly, and alerting others with the horn when turning blind corners. He was supportive and offered to take photos of us on numerous occassions. On the second day, unfortunately one of us felt unwell, perhaps from food poisoning. We decided to end the tour early and return to the port. Dodit was again very supportive and stopped when requested on the side of the road when we wanted to go out and vomit. He gave us the options to go to a clinic on the iand, or go to the port and seek care on the main Bali island. We were feeling better sondediced to return to the port. Dodit was flexible even when we were uncertain about exactly what we wanted to do. Nusa Penida is really nice and we got some exceptional photos. It is all the more comfortable with an excellent driver like Dodit.
