Jatiluwih Rice Terrace Bali is using Subak Irrigation System. Subak is water management that flow the water from the top level terrace to the bottom part. This system established due to the landscape of Bali. Bali is a small island with volcanic mountains existed inside the island. With this condition, it is really rare to have large and wide flat area for farming. To be able to farm rice which is the main food of Indonesian people, the local farmer discovered their way. Instead of looking wide flat area for farm, the local farmer flattened the mountain side area with terrace shape. This system now called Subak.

We used Bagus Tour Service twice on our trip to Bali. Once in Ubud, and once in Nusa Dua. Both trips were excellent. Bagus is friendly, knowledgeable, flexible, and a great driver. Also very easy to communicate with as he speaks English very well. Thank you Bagus for our memorable experiences.read more

I recently hired Bagus as our private driver in Bali. He got us to all of our destinations safely and on a timely matter. He was always on time to pick us up and made sure we arrived at our destinations at the most optimal time of the day (e.g sunset time if we are going to a beach). I really liked the art store he took us to and the Lawak coffee shop. He had really good recommendations for places to eat also. Highly recommend him!read more

We spent 2 and a half days with Bagus and had an amazing time. Bagus was always on time to pick us up at our hotel in Nusa Dua. He made great suggestions as what to see while we were here. We saw monkeys at the monkey forest, rice terraces with the swing, did great shopping in Ubud, saw temples at Tanah Lot and Ulawatu. Bagus took us to some smaller sites like a batik store and the best little coffee and tea shop. Bagus is personable, reliable, and just a very nice guy! We loved our time with Bagus Tour company.read more

We spent 4 days 3 nights in Bali with Bagus's guide. I must say he is probably the best guide I got for any trips anywhere. He is always on time, always willing to accommodate to our schedule and never show any signs of being tired. Always going the extra mile to make sure we really enjoy our trip. We've learnt so much about the culture, history and the people of Bali with his guide. He is definitely the guy to ask if you wanna know anything about Bali. He is also very friendly, polite and calm, always smilling. Overall highly recomended and will definitely get Bagus to guide us again when we go back to Bali.read more

We spent two weeks in Bali and were most happy to meet Bagus and use his services. Always polite, respectful, on time, excellent driver (and in Bali believe me it’s very important) and with an excellent knowledge of his island and its culture. Always good advice, best service ever found while traveling. He is a discreet guy who meet your expectations and even beyond, and do whatever it’s possible to do to make you happy. As an example, he took us in a wonderful and excellent seafood restaurant in Jimbaran and we’ve had one of our best romantic moment in front of the sunset. He knows very well the stories about most of the temples (we didn’t visit them all 😁 but still) and of the traditional dances he took us to. Very protective when it comes to monkeys , we enjoyed every moment spend at his side. To conclude very good guide, excellent driver and speaks English very well. So we highly recommend him for your next time in Bali. Thanks Bagus for this trip 👍👏 Jean-Patrick and valerie from franceread more

We had a great day tour with Bagus. The tour was easy to arrange over email and Bagus was very responsive. Bagus listened to what we wanted to see and arranged our day around that. We really appreciated the thought that went into planning our day tour. He also accommodated my request to visit a particular store in Ubud even though it meant sitting in traffic for longer. We very much enjoyed the visit to the Holy Spring temple and learning about the Hindu religion. Bagus speaks excellent English. The car was nice and clean and included bottled water. We will certainly book future tours with Bagus.read more

Bagus was an excellent person to deal with, very laid back and easy going. He's very knowledgeable about the area, especially the history and culture, which is what I was mostly interested in. We did two full day tours and round trip airport transfer with him and we wouldn't hesitate to do it again. He's honest with prices and information. Highly recommend Bagus tours for your Bali vacation!read more

We are delighted to be able to share our experience with Bagus. Firstly we would like to highlight the safe driving style; at all times we felt like we were in safe hands. Not only did Bagus look after us, he also appropriately and safely considered all other road users...pedestrians, cars, scooters, chickens and dogs alike! The car was comfortable, very clean and well maintained. Personality, Bagus is a gentleman. A person who is happy to be quiet and who is happy to chat (wish we spoke Balinese half as good as he can speak in english). Bagus is also a local and is very happy to share his insight and knowledge with you. Take heed when he tells you to pack away anything the monkeys may take off you!!! Bagus also make good recommendations for photo opportunities and takes photos for you too. It was a pleasure to be in his company. Booking and planning our trips could not have been any easier. We knew all of the landmarks we wanted to see and he planned a two day tour allowing us to see two very different regions and see everything we wanted to see plus a few extra locations, he also discreetly helped us make choi es when we needed to make choices. Bagus is very discreet by informing you of when you do or do not require a local guide...also very discreet when you are making purchases.read more

When I saw Bagus had 41 glowing reviews on Trip Advisor I knew he was the driver to take my husband, two young children and myself on a day trip from Nusa Dua to Ubud. He responded to my phone enquiry very promptly, confirmed key details via email and his English is excellent. He was very accommodating to our requests in regards to the itinerary before the day, as well as responsive to our changes on the day to suit our family's needs. There was absolutely no pressure for shopping, he was able to suggest alternative lunch options, and it was perfect. He was relaxed, informative, and proved a wonderful insight into Balinese culture. Thanks again Bagus for great service! We'll be in touch when planning our next trip to Bali.read more

Bagus really made the difference in my Honeymoon in Bali. He drove us around to the most amazing places in Ubud, Lovina and Uluwatu (just to mention a few), including hidden places or attractions we have never even thought to go (given our tight schedule). He was extremely attentive and courteous with me and my wife. He customized the tours the way we wanted - we could stay longer in some places or skip some others. We went to way more places than expected, we ate in amazing authentic Balinese restaurants and we were able to see how Bali really is (away from the most cliche places). I definitely recommend Bagus for your next stay in Bali! Just book the tours with him and forget about anything else! (no worries with weather, with transportation, with good food, etc.). Just relax and enjoy one of the most incredible places in Southeast Asia.read more

We had the pleasure of using the services of this company yesterday and all aspects were first class. We organised our tour before arriving on Bali by email and the tour was exactly what we requested. Bagus was very punctual when he arrived to pick us up at the hotel. Throughout our tour he was highly professional and offered an extremely enjoyable and relaxed day. If you want a first class tour from a first class company then this is the one for you. Thank you so much Mr Bagus, we look forward to using your services again next time we visit Bali!read more
