Reviews of Small Group tours to Bali
- Beautiful Bali (13 destinations)
Very well organised. The guide was great. Gave us lots of info but didn't over do it. He was very approachable and helpful especially when he had to deal with a couple of difficult travelers.
- Bali Natural & Cultural Immersion Tour 7 Days
I highly recommend Bravo Indochina Tours. The guides were attentive, informative, and added a fun element to the experience. While some sights weren't personally appealing to me, it seemed to interest most others in our group. The well-organized time frames and excellent accommodation contributed to an overall excellent experience.
We had the most amazing time on the tour. Yustus was a brilliant host and we were really sad to say goodbye to him. He was very informative and kind, and he went above and beyond to look after us and make sure we were happy with everything. We met the most lovely people on the tour and by the end of the week we really were a little family. I couldn’t recommend this trip enough if you are looking for a week tour, as we saw so many parts of Bali and the Gili islands in the 7 days and had the best experiences. We laughed all the way and built some great relationships! The company were also incredibly helpful in organising our onward travel. We decided to spend a few days in the Gili islands after the tour had finished, and The Bali Trip Mate organised and booked our travel back to Bali for an extra fee. This was really helpful as it meant we could carry on our holiday knowing that everything was sorted. 10/10 would recommend - thank you all for a brilliant trip!!
