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 fast & efficient to deal with, excellent service & over delivered... Wanted to take a day tour around the southern tip of Bali, checking out Ulawatu and surrounds from Sanur, driver Made was really positive, helpful & polite he knew where to go & the best way to do it... Waiting patiently while I enjoyed my adventures... Adding info along the way of where to eat & extra sights etc... The advice & service Michael has given regarding transport hire in Bali is totally recommended and will use again for family & friends! Thank you!

07.04.2024 - Airport Transfer + Day Tour with Arya was excellent, 5 stars. Very polite, friendly, had suggestions where to go, helped us to take photos, contacted us at the airport by WhatsApp so it was very easy to meet up. We had a great day with Arya and Koman (?) who was training with him. 11.04.2024 - Airport Transfer with Putu was 3 stars. He was scheduled to pick us up at 9:30 and we did not get any Whatsapp communication from him. We were early to the pick up because most drivers have arrived early. By 9:30 we were very worried when we didn't hear anything. I sent him a few Whatsapp and he replied that he was on his way. He arrived about 10 minutes late. I would not have been so worried if he had told us in advance that he was running late, but with no communication, we were about to pay for another taxi to the airport.

Can't fault this service. Booking is perhaps a little clunky but our driver (Gede) turned up bang on time and greeted us with a big smile. He spoke excellent english with a great sense of humour, listened to what we wanted and took us on a wonderful day out. Not only do you get a driver but you get a knowledgeable and helpful guide as well. Bali's roads are not for the feint hearted so it's really good to have an experienced driver.....thank you Michael and Gede 👍👍👍

Dana is a very good driver. He was always reliable and punctual with our bookings. He's got awesome driving skills - accurate and time-efficient as well. We like that he broadly knows the area around so we've been able to visit many beautiful places. He is also great communicator, we've learnt a lot about local culture and life on Bali during our trips. Many thanks to him for our wonderful holiday!

From start to finish Sumsool kept me informed from our first contact on WhatsApp to when he dropped me off at the airport and he is true to his word as we also used him during our stay in Bali. He was always early waiting for us and full of talk and very polite again very trustworthy and I would recommend this lad. The website give me loads of heads up on how to navigate through the airport on arrival. I cannot praise this company and Samsul enough, thank you and all take care.

Great taxi driver. No hassle. Made contact via What’s App and put my kind at rest (as a solo traveller) when I met him straight at arrivals. Couldn’t have done more to get me to my destination!

We had a wonderful experience. Our driver (Gede) was very professional, polite, funny and knowledgable! We stopped at a few extra stops based on his recommendation and enjoyed each one including a coffee and tea tasting experience! Highly recommend this service. A wonderful day out finishing with a few cold refreshing drinks overlooking an impressive waterfall.

I had an amazing time with Bali Holiday Secrets. Michael was happy to help adapt things to my schedule when I mistakenly booked for the wrong date. Additionally my guide/driver (Gede Ardi) was excellent - so friendly and knowledgeable, and passionate about all things Bali. He knew how to avoid the crowds and taught me a lot about Balinese culture. Could not recommend a trip Bali Holiday Secrets more highly!

Michael made the booking process very easy and he provided a lot of great tips for our first trip to Bali. Gede, our driver, was awesome! So friendly and made us feel very welcome and was prompt and helpful for both airport transfers. Will be using this service next time for sure!

We had a wonderful day sight seeing around Bali with our driver Ketut. There were some things on the tour that we didn't want to do and Ketut had some great alternative ideas that we really enjoyed. He was very knowledgeable about our surroundings and excellent at getting the most out of the miles travelled. We also learnt a lot about everyday life in Bali through our conversations on the road with Ketut. All in all we had a very enjoyable day and we highly recommend our driver and new friend Ketut Soni.

This was our first time in Bali. Even if Bali is just an island, there is so much to see, experience, and taste on the island. We spent 9 days and I felt that just hit a sample of what Bali has to offer. Having Arya Muliawan as our Driver/Tour Guide made a hugh difference. His knowledge and advice made the entire trip more enjoyable. Not having to drive on the left side and dealing with traffic (cars and motor scooters) gave us the opportunites to see the surrounding areas.

First time for my husband and I going to Bali this coming November for our 52nd wedding anniversay and this website has been a wealth of information. I would like to know if possible if you would have a driver collect us at the airport 12th November at 8.50pm to take us to Singgah Villa Seminyak (unless you can recommend better accomodation but must have a private pool). We are in our early 70's and are a little nervous, we have travelled to Europe, America and Malaysia but understand Bali is a different ball game. We are looking for a quiet relaxing holiday but wonder if you could recommend a couple of half day or full day tours suitable to our age group. I appreciate you help and look forward to hearing from you Kind regards Priscilla

Drivers were on time, friendly and flexible. The price is slightly higher than what you can find on platforms like Klook but Michael is always on hand to answer questions and the drivers are also easily contactable on WhatsApp which is great when you are going from place to place and have several people needing pickup.

Excellent service. Arya was waiting for us and spotted us before we saw him. The car was clean and Arya was a smooth, competent driver. The entire experience made arriving in Denpasar stress free. Good value for money also.
