About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- anurags6690 contributionsMust go in BaliExcellent trip from door to door. Especially happy with our driver Komang who took care of everything. Excellent beaches...though you can only swim in Crystal Beach which is rough sand and rough sea. But all in all it's a great experience.Written 3 February 2025
- GENTIANEBLEU0 contributionsAprès-midi et soirée mémorablesWe really enjoyed our half-day tour with our guide-driver Thu Buddy. Leaving at 2:30 p.m., the timing proposed by the guide was perfect. Very attentive to our needs, our guide gave us all the practical advice and appointments before we wandered around the Uluwatu temple area, perched majestically on its cliff overlooking the ocean. The time given was quite sufficient before we attended an hour of Balinese dances at sunset. This show over, we found our driver-guide who took us to a seaside restaurant where we enjoyed a balanced and perfectly fresh seafood meal. After dinner, Mr. THU BUDDY, always so attentive, took us back to our hotel. Thank you to him for this beautiful day.Written 17 January 2025

He made sure I was comfortable and ok with the whole time (was physically sore from prior day activities). Great photographer as well. ☺️ Thank you for this great experience.Written 28 December 2024
- Hannah M0 contributionsWell organised trip, and able to amend it so we could take our 2 year old.We had a great time snorkelling. Everything was very organised, Budi text me the night before with pickup information. He arrived on time to the resort, and his driving was very good. We took our 2 year old so were a bit anxious but it was great. We were able to take it in turns snorkelling and we were able to amend our trip to make it shorter so she wouldn't get agitated. It was a very smooth day, and we had a great time.Written 15 December 2024

- Sandyatsea0 contributionsOvernight stayIt was a nice trip. Both drivers were great. They are wonderful. Buddy was so helpful and he really catered to what we wanted to do on the island. Bundi was a great help to with bringing us to a clinic when I had a medical emergency. Nusa penida was ok. The snorkeling guides were good. We did not see any manta but that is nature. It is so sad about all the rubbish and plastic and litter in the ocean and on the beaches. It's disgusting. The hotel staff was nice and the location was quiet. We had a lovely meal in a nice local restaurant in the town. We did the overnight stay so the hotel provided breakfast in the morning! Overall the best part was the guides and staff.Written 3 December 2024

The tour operator was good. Our driver Komang was very nice and on time. He picked us up and took us to the Fast Boat docks, where he led us through the complicated process of boarding but could not join us past the gate. Once in the terminal area, we were shown to a group of about 10 boats, and one matched the name on the ticket. It was hard to find because of the chaos, but the locals were helpful enough. Jamed into the fastboat, we were off. Once we got there after a fairly comfortable 45 min , it was a less organised situation of informal buildings, cars, scooters, and general buzz that we see elsewhere in Bali. We were told to follow this very stern but nice enough guy through the chaos to a table in a small informal building. Got our tickets for the next leg, tried on fins, and shuttled off to another boat. The captain of our new powerboat, an even more no-nonsense kinda guy, gave us a safety briefing in functional English, and off we went to the first of four snorkel spots. There are a lot of divers, snorkellers, and boats crammed into this small Cove. The water was kinda choppy, but there were a few massive manta rays that flew past under water at impressive speeds. 15 minutes of swimming around in fairly deep water, and we were off again. 4 spots in total, each for about 15min, but the last three were much more like how I expected them to be. Clear water, maybe 5 meters deep and heaps of marine life living amongst modest coral. Then, off again to the small dock, AUD 50c for a bathroom experience that could have been better and then told to go shower under some very basic facilities before being shown to the fast-boat/ferry back after an hours wait. All in all, it is a very genuine and memorable experience. It seems to be aimed at the backpacker or young adult, or at least young at heart. Fairly good value, all things considered, and nobody got hurt or died.

Nusa Penida was amazing and I was so glad I did it. To be honest all I wanted to do was to go on a boat. The beaches were a bonus. Agus was a great guide and his driving skills will get you to the boat safe and before time so you can spend way more time on the island. Highly recommend!

Our driver, Agus was the best part of our trip! He was very attentive in getting us to our destination on time and was very reliable. Overall, our trip on the island was exactly as promised. We went to the 4 promised snorkeling sites and saw the things. Management was a little chaotic in finding where we were supposed to go but I just recommend reaching out to the given phone number and they helped us quickly. The only thing that could’ve been better was that I do wish there was a disclaimer that you should know how to swim before going on this excursion. A couple in our group did not and it was very obvious as the man kicked my partner in the chest and stomach, which kinda took her out for the rest of the trip. Overall, the excursion fit the description and it was a nice way to see another island in Indonesia!

Don't go on this tour.... the whole day was very unorganized, we caught the fast boat to Nusa Penida and then were left at one of the dozen snorkel tour huts with very little instruction. When we got on the boat, the water was very choppy, but the boat still drove out for 30 mins to the furthest snorkel spot to "check if we could get in the water" - if they had asked the hundreds of other boats out there that day, they would've know that it was not safe, so not sure why they wasted our time. The snorkels leaked, my partners was attached to his googles with a hair tie, and when it inevitably fell off and was lost, we were charged a NZ$30 fee. The reef is dead and there are not many fish, I would've much preferred to have paid more money and gone on a sustainable tour. This is definitely not worth the money we paid.

Thank you for your feedback regarding your recent trip with Sari Nusa Penida Tour. We apologize that we could not meet your expectations, for snorkeling at the main spot it is indeed far because it is a spot in the plan, and for snorkeling we always check it and we provide many choices and before using it we recommend to try it

The reason I give 3 stars is that everything practical about the trip worked perfectly (pick-up at the hotel for the ferry, etc.). But snorkeling trips were a disappointment, a typical "cattle trip" about 25 tourists + staff on the boat, the guide didn't seem like he cared about his job. None of the places we snorkeled were particularly exciting and no Mantas! (of course they can't do that for).

Thank you for your lovely comments regarding your recent trip with Sari Nusa Penida Tour
sorry for your inconvenience, for sharing boats we have a capacity of 25 to 30 people, at the beginning we explained for that,
for mantas they are wild animals so we don't guarantee you can see them.
and for the fast boat at that time it was delayed because the weather at that time was a bit bad

During this journey, I had an incredible day. My tour guide Joel was charming, hilarious, and really accommodating. he took amazing shots of us and made sure we were taken care of. It was a wonderful day trip that I would strongly recommend if you are short on time while in Bali and are looking for a chance to get out of the city for the day. My favourite part of the day was viewing the elephants and the doorway to heaven at the elephant sanctuary.

Only giving 5 star because of our diver Agung. He really took care of us and made sure we had what we needed. Can't imagine doing the trip without his help because IT WAS ROUGH.
TLDR: great guides, poor facility. Did see fish, won't do it ever again.
The boat ride to the island and back were so exhausting. People are packed like sardines and it was so hot and humid inside. No dock on the island which means the boat lands on sand and you walk in the water to get up and down.
Once you get there, several different guides take you to do the snorkeling. The waiting area is messy, dirty and no place to sit. The fins they fit you on is covered in sand, and it's unclear if the snorkel gear was sanitized. It's also the most basic type, not a dry snorkel. Better to bring your own.
We did see lots of fish, thanks to the fish food the guide is giving out in the water... Like another reviewer mentioned, the first site had quite some trash in the water. The 3rd spot was the best. But you can tell that corals aren't doing well. Really hope the government do something to preserve them before it's too late. The guides took many photos for people and took care of kids/ non-swimmers/first timers, which is great.
After snorkeling, they take you to a beach club. Food there has no taste, but it's not like there are other options. You can rinse and change at the initial waiting area.

We had a great trip with our guide, Agung. He was there early for our pick up and was very informative about what we should expect and do. He was very attentive and made sure that we were smoothly transferred through the fast boat direct to the snorkel dive operators on Nusa Penida. The snorkelling was good, but the boat ride home was the best. At the end of the trip he was great making sure we were safely off the boat, that we were well supplied for the drive home and that we had the best ride home with all our favourite music playing.

Great day trip. Our very friendly driver, Agus, met us promptly at 6.30am. On the way to the port, he told us what to expect for the day. Agus was very nice and gave us lots of recommendations of things we should do whilst in Bali.
We had a good day for snorkelling, not too choppy on the waves and not too hot. The boat rides were short and sweet, and the instructors were friendly and polite. With a group size of about 20 people, the instructor did a fantastic job and trying to take pictures of everyone on the go pro (which were sent to us promptly).
We had about 30mins per spot to snorkel. And arrived back to main land with about an hour to spare before the boat trip home. As 2 young girls travelling alone, we felt very safe and welcomed by our tour guides and driver.
Having done a fair bit of snorkelling before, this trip was pretty similar to one’s we’d already done. Unfortunately we didn’t see any mantra rays. Just a lot of coral and small fish. And even then, the coral was not that exciting.
However, overall was a pleasant experience.
