Will we have time for shopping?
Yes. There are some curio shops along the way. For higher-end shopping, speak to your driver or guide about making arrangements.
Can I get a healing or Malukat?
No. The temples we are going to generally do not do healing ceremonies for tourists. Should you want a malukat or cleansing ceremony performed on you or anyone of your group, please make this request prior to your tour and we will attempt to arrange a session.
Please keep in mind that personal ceremonies are not a normal part of our tours and we cannot guarantee them. Let us know your thoughts and we will help you as much as we can.
Do we really need to hire a guide for this tour?
No. You can take this tour on your own, but our guides have many years of experience with these traditions and locations and will prove to be extremely helpful throughout your day.Â
Please keep in mind that your driver will help you in ways that a taxi driver will not. He will wait for you while you are strolling the grounds of temples and will advise you on proper customs.
Are children allowed on this tour?
Yes. Please keep in mind that many of the places you visit are old and a child can get hurt if not supervised. We will also be going to the beach so please be sure to supervise your child at all times.
Will there be a lot of other tourists?
Uluwatu is very popular, but our guides will do the best at getting to places during the least crowded times.
What’s the difference between hiring a guide and just using a driver?
Our drivers speak English and are very knowledgeable. They will always answer your questions as best they can, but once you arrive at each destination, the driver stays with the car and allows you to explore on your own.
If you choose to pay US $25 in addition to the tour fee, we will provide a guide that will accompany you at every stop and explain the cultural and historical significance of each location. They will be available to answer questions during your tour and will help you with photo opportunities and provide other assistance as needed.
