Ketut was a fantastic guide with great knowledge. We did several tours throughout our 2 week visit including Nusa Penida, sunrise trek at Mount Batur and a cost to the elephants.
Everything was organised extremely well and the transport was great.
I would highly recommend contacting and using Him as a guide 😀.

We had the most amazing day with Mano. He was so well mannered and extremely helpful. He couldn’t have done enough for us. He made sure everything was thought of like coming to meet us with umbrellas, opening doors for us, getting the car ahead of us so we didn’t need to walk. He is absolute beautiful soul that raises your spirits being in his company. He really makes you understand what life is all about, he just radiates happiness and love! Thank you 🙏 Mano we will back again ❤️❤️❤️

We had a wonderful day with Ketut! He took the time to explain their culture and history everywhere we went and we never felt rushed. Cold waters and towels provided after every stop. Highly recommend. Be sure to stop at the Monkey Forest in Ubud with him, he is the “monkey whisperer” and gets the best monkey selfies.

Mano is the most experienced tour guide you can find in Bali. He will happily accommodate your trip requests and be ready to provide everything to turn your tour unique. He knows the best hours to visit the different touristic spots and avoid crowds, he is a very good photographer as well that will help you capture your special moments in Bali. Mano is also the kindest person I met in Bali, full of knowledge to share and a great person/company. His tours are the best way to soend your time on the island so dont think twice and book soon :) I did two tours, visited several temples, waterfalls and got to know more of Bali than I even expected. Thank you Mano for your kindess and professionalism!

All the reviews are extremely positive, so I must have just caught Ketut on a bad day. He seemed disinterested most of the time, spent much of the time on his mobile phone with little commentary. He did vary the tour when asked and took me to a silver shop which was very nice. I guess everyone can have an off day.

Since the first moment I picked you up by your hotel , I already had a bad moment . No smile not saying anything , and jumped in to my car and quiet . I tried to make a conversation and ask you some question but you seem not interested , and all the day you didn't ask me any question about the places we visit , I tried to explain something and you only said " uhu" no respond at all . So you actually turned around the story . I don't understand why are you saying this ? If I was not interested, do you think I walk down the stairs to waterfall taking photos for you ? Do you think I would buy fruits for you to try ? And go everywhere with you explaining things ? I did checked my message on my phone when you taking photo and I didn't need to explain stuff that time and I was not playing with my phone all the time , like most other customers would know that :)) so I am sorry that you didn't feel happy and didn't get what you expected ,but you shouldn't turned around the story to make me look bad , but it's ok , they know what exactly in reality ! Good luck to you :) thank you for taking the tour anyway :)

Got a rather depressing experience with no enthusiasm and involvment on both trips, it was more like we had to entertain the guide...1 smile a day at pickup, the rest focused on his cellphone Totally different from what I could read here...
Car is clean and driving is good.
Would I recommend: no.

Just doesn't make sense , why would you take a second trip if you had already bad experience on the first trip ! And it's not so "Me" only smile once on the pick up day !! Nice try :)

If you’re one of those people who is only going to read the first few things I say… *GO!* Ketut is amazing. You won’t regret it.
As I was traveling alone and only passing through Bali for two nights, I knew I wanted to hire a guide for the one full day I had. Upon arrival and everywhere outside my hotel, there are numerous touts offering taxis and day tours. If you’re the kind of person who’s willing to spend the day in a dirty, old car with someone off the street in order to save a few rupiah – You’ll likely get exactly what you paid for. If you’re fortunate enough to be able to book a tour with Ketut, you’re guaranteed a comfortable ride in a brand new, spacious, clean SUV – and, best of all, a knowledgeable, friendly tour guide (who’s very easy on the eyes). Bali is beautiful. Bali is interesting. Bali is exciting. To me, Ketut is Bali. Traveling alone can be challenging, but Ketut made me feel like I was there with an old friend… the only difference being this (new) friend knows everything about his island home.
I opted for the Ubud tour, but Ketut offers a few different options. We hit up a waterfall, the rice terraces, the volcano, got lunch at this great local café, a craft market, and best for last… the monkey forest! Ketut was always handy to explain things or set up the perfect photo.
1000% recommended.

One of the things I think Bali lacks is honesty where I think everyone is wired to get your money at all cost. Not Ketut, he is the exception to all this. I found him above all else honest and straight with you. While most drivers will only take you to places where they get a commission, Ketut is more interested in taking you to somewhere he knows is good.
We took all 3 tours that Ketut offers and we found him a very enjoyable person, who is dedicated and energetic and will not disappoint. He will also give you other options on the day and is also happy to take you to the places you may wish to go along the way.
I recommend him to anyone that is going to Bali.

Don't leave Bali without having a day with Ketut!! You will experience the REAL Bali and get to do and see things you wouldn't get to do with anyone else! Such an awesome guy, he even brought me batteries for my camera. We had to cancel our last day with Ketut due to Bali belly, but it'll be the first thing we book for our next trip back to Bali.

When you visit Seminyak or surrounding area you need to book Ketut to show you around. He is such a lovely knowledgeable guy and is great with the monkeys at the sanctuary in Ubud. We were very happy to have used Ketut to guide us around Bali, he drives safely and has a lovely new car with amazing aircon (needed).
He supplies water and cold towels for when you’ve been walking about and get a bit hot.
Anyone who we know that is going to Bali we will be recommending Mano Bali tour guide to them.
Simply brilliant.
