About Bali Holiday Secrets:

Let me help lower the risk of something going wrong during your Bali holiday. After years of passing on insider tips to family and friends, I'm sharing my local knowledge about money, transport, attractions and day tours.

Transfers from Bali Airport to your hotel or villa are easy if you book ahead. Remove the stress from arriving at Bali Airport and book a private car and driver to personally meet you and get you to your accommodations quickly and easily. Be met on arrival by one of my personally vetted, English-speaking drivers and receive comprehensive, detailed instructions on navigating the airport and making contact with your personal driver straight after booking.

Our day tours get rave reviews because my network of local drivers is second to none. I have personally vetted all the drivers I work with. They text me when they pick you up and again when you have been dropped off at the end of the day. I also email your driver’s name, profile photo, vehicle photo and phone number beforehand to ensure your safety and provide confidence. They are all incredibly knowledgeable and make amazing guides for your day tours around Bali.

We booked Bali Holiday Secrets twice during our week-long stay in Bali, for both a full day and a half day private driver tour. Both times, the service was excellent and super easy. When we booked we had an email confirming the driver, with a picture of both the driver and the car and a guide of how to pronounce their name. Then later on, we had a What's Ap from the driver to talk about the itinerary. Both drivers arrived well before pick-up time. Their English was excellent. They knew how to get to everywhere and were immensely friendly. They were more than willing to either answer questions about Bali, or drive in silence when we were tired at the end. They were awesome! The beauty of the service is that you get to take all of the hassle out of travelling around the island. On both occasions, Dendong and Wayan devised a timetable to get us to the places we wanted to visit, then either came in and helped us with buying a ticket (when we were going into somewhere that was ticketed), or just dropped us off at the right place when we wanted to go to the beach. The upside is that you can spend as long as you like visiting somewhere and if you want to stay longer, you just drop them a whats ap and it's all sorted! It makes going to somewhere like Ubud and having a wander around, super easy. And you know you dont have to run the Russian Roulette of a local driver in a Blue cab at the end! On both occasions, Dendong and Wayan pointed out lots of local places of interest and had suggestions about what to do (but weren't offended if we didn't want to do it). They knew where everything was which took the hassle out of finding for eg the small laneway at Thomas Beach which we would never have found if we were left to our own devices. In short, it streamlined the touring process MASSIVELY and isn't expensive for what you get. The cars are really well maintained and air-conditioned. Couldn't recommend enough.

Very happy that you found the entire tour process pleasurable, from beginning to end. Taking the hassle out of travelling in Bali is what we do! You were also in great hands with Dendong and Wayan. Thank you for taking the time to leave a detailed and honest review, Elizabeth. We hope your memories in Bali last a lifetime, but also hope that you return to create even more memories!

Really simple and easy process to book transfer from airport to hotel. I was given the WhatsApp for our driver Wayan, which really helped as our flight was delayed so the original meeting time at the airport was delayed a few hours, whatsapped Wayan and he said no problem and waited for us to arrive. Wayan was a brilliant driver and answered our questions on the 2+ hour drive up to Ubud. These guys are a much better service than risking a random taxi.

We had an amazing trip with Komang, going to quad bikes in the forest, swings over the cliff tops and the coffee plantation. Our driver and tour for the day, Komang was friendly, a great laugh and fun to be around.

I booked a private driver through Bali Holiday Secrets for my trip to Nusa Penida, and it was hands down one of the best decisions of my holiday. From start to finish, the service was professional, reliable, and incredibly well-organized. Our driver was not only punctual and friendly, but also super knowledgeable about the island—he knew all the best photo spots. The car was clean and comfortable, and we never felt rushed. It was clear that Bali Holiday Secrets really cares about creating a smooth and memorable experience for travelers. If you're heading to Nusa Penida and want a stress-free way to explore the island, I highly recommend booking their private driver service. Totally worth it!

Michael, contacting you was the best decision. It was the first time my husband and I who are both in our 70s had been to Bali and your advice and the driver you arranged made it stress free trip When we disembarked from our cruise ship we found Gede easily. He was an extremely pleasant and spoke fluent English. He took us to some very interesting places and we all had lunch together. Overall we had a very lovely day

Excellent experience. Gede and Made were fantastic, very accommodating, patient and very informative. It was great talking to them. And we were very impressed how they knew the ins and outs of the roads with no help from gps other than to check traffic. Making the arrangements online was seamless. Michael was very responsive. Highly recommend. I’m sharing this link to my brother who will be in Bali after I leave.

I used this service recently when in Bali. Our driver Kadek was fantastic. He looked after our needs and took us to some great places. We booked a child car seat for a 1 year old which was provided and properly fitted. Highly recommend. You can trust this service.

Great tour of Ubud and surrounding area. The experience was greatly improved because Made was our guide and driver and assisted with ticket purchase for venues and looked after us on the entire tour. Communication was excellent so everything went to plan. Would not consider anyone else for our Bali excursions.

Very happy with the service you provided us in Bali. Kadak was there to meet us at the ship and he spoke very good English and drove us around the places we wanted to visit in Bali. He was a very good driver and made suggestions along the way which we appreciated. We did give him a tip when we parted.

If you want a reliable, well organised airport transfer in Bali, look no further. Booking is simple and the price is very reasonable. I was in contact with my driver Whyan by Whatsapp before we flew and had received his photo to help.meeting up. Can't fault this service and will use again.

We booked a driver through Bali Holiday Secrets. Best thing we did! Kadek was amazing, so friendly and helpful! He is an awesome driver! He was always checking we were ok and helping us with what we could do and where to go. He helped get us tickets as it was a bit confusing at times. Without Kadek we would not have had such a fantastic time in Bali! I highly recommend him. We will definitely book him next year for our next visit!

Our driver wa Dana. Were we lucky. What a friendly knowledgeable young man. Was genuinely keen to answer any questions. We discussed our wants and followed his recommendations. A skilled and careful driver.Just the drive to the monkey farm was a buzz. He stopped at the silver factory snd the poo coffee shop on the day. You haven't been in traffic until you do this. Recommend to anyone. Dana is a special family man trying to provide for his family in a world we would never experience. Hundred percent trustwothy.

We booked Wayan Tisna for 5 hours, not knowing how many miles we would be able to cover in the early hours of the morning. He was on time... looked at the itinerary we had made and talked through options. He was very accommodating, and to our surprise, got us every where we wanted to go, including a few photo stops road side! When an issue arose with our next transportation meeting spot, he helped come up with a solution. I found his calm demeaner refreshing. We felt safe, even in heavy crazy traffic.

Thank you for sharing your experience! Wayan Tisna really has a knack for turning even the busiest Bali roads into a smooth ride. I love hearing how he not only got you everywhere on your list (plus some bonus photo stops) but also helped troubleshoot when plans changed. His calm demeanor is definitely a superpower in Bali’s traffic! If you ever find yourself back on the island, give us a shout! Michael, Bali Holiday Secrets

Our driver Wayan was the best!! Friendly, courteous, knowledgeable, not to mention an excellent driver. He helped us at the places we visited with advice and information and came along with us to help navigate and take photos when we needed. I highly recommend Bali Holiday Secrets and Wayan in particular. Five star service at a reasonable price!

Was hesitant on the denpasar food tour but that was an amazing experience. it was a bit hectic at the market but it added to the fun. The wife and I ate more food than we can handle. Bali holiday secrets is an amazing website and woudl definitely recommend it. Our drivers for the airport transfer and tour were very friendly and engaging

Thank you for your review Adam! The Denpasar Food Tour is quite unique in a sense that it throws you deep into local culture. And the food at the night market is aboslutely irresistable. See you again soon. Michael, Bali Holiday Secrets
