          Amazing Time at the Bali Swing
          I am so happy my group picked this company to provide us with our tour we had an amazing time. This tour had so many elements to it but my group decided to spend most of our time at the Bali swings where we had an amazing time. Our tour guide Rio was very knowledgeable and patient with my group. He showed us around and was able to answer a lot of the questions we had.

          Great Hiking Experience
          Our driver Gusti and our guide Rudi did an excellent job. Gusti was very organized and engaging leading up to the trip, and made the drive very comfortable. Rudi showed us all the best spots along the hike, and helped us to take amazing pictures. It's not the easiest hike, but so having a great guide helped!

          Best Tour Company in Bali
          You can’t pass this tour company up. Service +++ amazing to deal with and all staff are very knowledgeable. Best thing is that yes you can book a tour which is fine but you can also adapt your trip to what you want. And there is no stops at the silver shop, gold shop etc etc. Agung runs a tight ship when it comes to his staff and you will always get the best. And if you want local cuisine as well 😀 this is the company to go with. Rio Bali tours

          Exceeded all our Expectations
          The tour started off well, with Wayan turning up on time in a very clean and comfortable SUV. His English is excellent, both spoken and comprehension. This made him more than a driver. He suggested additional places we might visit, and his choice of establishments for our shopping stops was excellent. As a result, the shopping stops we did request were more like tours than being harassed by eager salespeople. Our dealings with Rio Bali Tours were equally pleasant - timely, polite and informative responses.

          Rio the One and Only
          This is my second time with Rio. I have availed their services back in 2015 and now again in 2025. In this span of 10 years, nothing has changed in the quality of service provided by them. They are just the best in Bali. We were a group of 9 adults and 4 kids this time, and we had a great time. He gives you local knowledge and recommendations for dining. He's the go-to person in Bali

        We had an absolutely wonderful experience with Rio as our driver during our trip to Ubud, Bali. He spent an incredible 10 hours with us, ensuring every moment of our journey was seamless and enjoyable.

        From the moment we met him, Rio was warm, friendly, and professional. As first-time visitors to Bali, we were incredibly grateful for his extensive knowledge of the island. He not only guided us through the best routes to Ubud but also shared fascinating insights about Balinese culture, history, and traditions along the way.

        Rio went above and beyond to accommodate our needs, whether it was stopping for photos at breathtaking viewpoints, recommending hidden gems, or patiently answering all of our questions about Bali. His dedication to making our experience special was truly remarkable.

        We couldn’t have asked for a better guide and driver. If you’re visiting Bali, we highly recommend Rio’s services – he turned what could have been a long drive into one of the highlights of our trip. Thank you, Rio, for an unforgettable day!

        Cheers

        Our driver, Wayan, was good as the night before the tour contacted me to ask for my wish list of places to go to and he showed up on time at our hotel to pick us up. The car was clean and comfortable. Wayan definitely delivered as took us to all the places we asked him to go to and he let us know what place was next which we liked very much. Hiring a private driver was good value as we didn’t have to be bored by typical tour operators carting you from one place to another as you get to design your own itinerary.

        Our experience with Ketut Arsana at Rio Bali Tours was truly outstanding. From the moment we embarked on our journey, we knew we were in for something special. What made this tour exceptional was the flexibility of the itinerary. Unlike rigid, pre-planned tours, Ketut allowed us the freedom to adapt our adventure as we went along. This meant that if we stumbled upon a hidden gem or a picturesque spot, we could make an impromptu stop to savor the moment, take photos, or simply soak in the surroundings.

        Ketut's deep knowledge of Bali, its culture, and its beautiful landscapes was evident throughout the trip. His recommendations for additional stops were not only well-informed but also tailored to our interests. Whether it was a local market, a serene temple, or a breathtaking viewpoint, every stop added another layer of richness to our experience.

        Ketut's accommodating and friendly nature made us feel like we were traveling with a friend rather than a tour guide. He was not just a guide; he became a companion on our journey, sharing stories and insights about the places we visited. His passion for Bali and his own heritage was contagious, and it enhanced our appreciation for this stunning island.

        I highly recommend Wah who was our tour guide for this wonderful two-day adventure in Udup and the surrounding areas in Bali.

        It started with us hearing about Wah from some other guests, experienced world travelers, at the Ritz Carlton in Nusa Dua.

        They recommended him and connected us. We made arrangements for Wah to pick us up, drive us to Udup and give us a tour.

        Wah's communications were clear, timely, responsive, and respectful. All in English... until he taught me the saying "Ayoh!" which means "Let's Go!" in Indonesian. We had a lot of fun shouting out Ayoh! as we traveled from one adventure to the next.

        During our time with Wah, he took us to rice terraces, waterfalls, the Udup Monkey Sanctuary, a coffee plantation, a silver manufacturing and retailing company (we bought some great gifts there for ourselves and others (prapen.com), a local temple with a spiritual cleansing ritual, nice restaurants with Balinese cuisine and a great selection of other options, and more. He explained various options, listened to our interests, and took us where he knew we would enjoy the time.

        Wah is knowledgeable of the sites, the island, the country, the culture and more. He is proud of his culture and happy to share and respond to our curious questions.

        Wah's vehicle is a very comfortable and well maintained Toyota SUV. Apparently he vacuums it every night. His wife prepares a cooler with a thoughtful selection of beverages for his guests. He and his wife are very focused on ensuring clients are happy.

        And they did just that.

        Wah made our visit to Ubud truly memorable.

        We had a 6 day 5 night Bali trip. We got Kadak as our driver. He got a good looking and good conditioned Avanza car. He helped us to visit all the important places. He was more companion than a driver. Very friendly person. He was always ahead of the scheduled time. Never complained when we delayed.

        Extremely cool, calm and accommodative. We kept changing our plans, he never had any complaints. Typically for foreigners all the temples are for visiting, no praying. We wanted to do praying in the temple. He spoke and arranged a prayer at Batuwan temple. Going by recommendation we saw on the net, we wanted to watch Kechak dance at Ulwatu temple. Too much crowd and have to wait for 2hrs in line to get tickets. He gave us alternative to watch it at Melasti beach, which we felt is even better experience. He gave good suggestions for Bali Swing, ATV ride, etc. When we felt the first swing area was not stop interesting, he drove to another place which is 40min away. He always wanted us to be satisfied. Bali got extremely crowded traffic. He knows all the routes very well. He finds short cut routes to save our time. He can speak and understand English.

        He never demanded extra money. Extremely polite person. Completely trustworthy person. I would recommend him too anyone who visits Bali.

        Love you Kadak. You are such a kind person, May God bless you with prosperity, health and wealth.

        Putu Andi was punctual with pick up, as our guide he was knowledgeable and had some awesome stories about the statues and amazing carvings that we saw.
        Very accommodating with my mum as she asked questions about culture. He was a delight to have as a guide. We will definitely be back and hopefully we can book another tour with him.

        I used a car driven by an English speaker for eight hours. We departed from the Hilton resort in Nusa Dua to do sightseeing and shopping in the vicinity of Nusa Dua's Bali collection, touring and shopping around Sanur's Icon Bali and arriving at the airport. The member was Wayan and made the trip enjoyable with accurate pickup and friendly guidance and skilled driving. The most friendly thing was a proper response that wasn't too exaggerated or too naked. When you go to Bali, plan to use it again. It was a thankful day.

        Rio was fantastic! He came referred by a friend. Our friend has known Rio for many years. She has availed of his services for herself and her family on several trips. We contacted Rio about a month before our trip with details of our stay. He responded very fast and gave us details of other things like tours, temple visits possible etc. He is a generational Bali resident - born and brought up here and has been doing this for decades. So his knowledge is impeccable about hotels etc as well. He WhatsApp’d his picture to us at the airport so it was easy to find him. The drive to our hotel took time because of traffic but his air conditioned Toyota innova is very comfortable. He told us about the history of Bali which was very interesting. He took us to uluwatu temple after a few days and then he drove us to ubud for our second hotel stay. He knows accurate times it’ll take from place to place. He is not pushy and let’s you decide at your pace. Then he took us to the airport. It was raining a lot but he still got us to the airport in the time he said it would. He is safe driver yet knows how to get around and not get stuck. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!

        I've been using this service since 2015.
        As you can see by the time frame, I can truly say they offer a great deal with a great experience with knowledgeable drivers. I'll be back in November to be picked up from the airport to my hotel beit midnight, no problem. Their English is superb, communication very good.

        We booked Rio as our driver for a week and he didnt disappoint. It was our first trip to Bali so we were happy to be led by him as to where to go and what to see, although we did have a few places that we had looked at that we wanted to go to also. Nothing was too much trouble for Rio, he kept the kids laughing and happy.
        Our little one needed gluten free food, so he was tasked with making sure that anywhere we stopped for lunch had gluten free options for her and he also went out of his way on several days going to different supermarkets and bakeries to find gluten free bread (unfortunately we were unsuccessful in our hunt but not for lack of trying!).
        We went to many of the tours listed on the Bali Tours site, white water rafting (was brilliant fun but the steps down and up to get to and from it are not for the faint hearted), waterfalls, just beautiful, although the market there is very expensive so maybe look elsewhere. Jungle swings & rice fields, all the temples we wanted and a volcano thrown in too for good measure. Art market, batik market, Waterbom park the list goes on.
        We thoroughly enjoyed our time in Bali and would have no hesitation in going back and booking Rio to drive us again!!
